Howard Wilson Finishes Nation-Wide Essay Study
Howard Wilson of the Department of Economics of Loyola University, Chicago has just completed a nation wide-essay survey among the students in the American Colleges and Univer- sities on "what is the good college pro- fessor according to 1948 standards."
All 48 states were represented in the survey and essays submitted pictured the theoretical ideal professor as fol- lows:
1. The professor would be a young man and should have a thorough knowledge of his subject and should be adequately prepared to teach iff
2. He should possess a sense of humor and should laugh with the class; he should laugh with the class when they laugh at him.
3. He must recognize the student as ah individual both in and out of the class, rather than merely-as a name on the class list.
4. He must come to his class fully prepared, knowing what he is going to say. He should say.it in an interesting manner without extensive reference to notes, and should clarify and illustrate the important material from the read- ings.
5. He must express enthusiasm and must like his subject so that his en- thusiasm is transferred to his students.
6. The good professor attempts to correlate his course with the world of reality and should use up to date ex- amples.
7. He uses simple, clear language rather than language that attempts to impress the student with his large vo- cabulary.
8. He treats the student as his equal and should recognize that occasionally the student too can be right and can express ideas that are sound but differ- ent than those of the professor.
*-
9. His class is friendly and is con- ducted in an informal democratic man- ner.
10. His office door is open to stu- dents for help in their subject, or for help in personal problems.
11. The curve system of marking in which 8 or 10% of the class mupt fail is not used. The good college pro- fessor rates each student individually on effort as well as growfh.
12. He recognizes that the students are taking four or five other courses and makes assignments and demands with this in mind.
13. He gives frequent announced ex- ams rather than merely a final, or a mid-term and final.
14. He dresses in an up to date fas- hion which sets an example for his class.
'IS, He must be the type of person who could be a leader of men if he should leave his cloistered existence.
16. He is sincere in his work and in his relations with his students.
17: He uses impersonal fairness in his treatment and grading of students.
18. He expresses a like and interest for his students and a hope -of their mastery of the subject and of life.
19. He knows other subjects rather than just his own specialty. He is well versed in sports, music, literature, popular fiction and the comics.
20. He does not dodge the students' questions. He answers them when they are asked and admits it if he does not know the answer.
21. He places his students first and not lecturing, writing, or research.
22. He varies his voice tone when lecturing and moves freely around the room.
23. He is not prejudiced regarding races or religions.

Students Give Fashion Review
Last week instead of the usual lec- ture by Miss Glada B. Wajker or the general discussion period, three stu- dents from each of three of the basic art classes staged demonstrations in some phase of costume design. Each leader working with members of her class from her own dormitory, planned her own part of the program, after hav- ing worked out tenative plans with the other two leaders of her class to avoid duplication.
In one section a millinery shop was opened to the entire class. Various types tried on the hats and chose the one she thought most becoming. Then the entire class discussed her choice. Another section presented various cos- tumes and discussed their appropriate- ness to the occasion and becomingness to the model. Accessories and costume jewelry were also modeled and dis- cussed.
The G2 section, under the leadership of Hazel Hall, Patricia O'Flaherty, and Dolores Quesenberry staged the most complete program. Some of the num- bers included the following: The cor- rect old look versuses the correct new look in school clothes. The chic travel- ing suit just right from hat to shoes. Costume for informal tea. A simple but dressy date dress. The business girl who converts to date clothes with- out returning home. The bathing suit with the new brevity yet discrete mod- esty. New style evening dress and short cape. A camping outfit. New short hair styles. Then one problem girl with tailored suit, dressy hat, high heel sandals and socks, inappropriate accessories and clashing colors.
Twenty or more models were pre- sented, and they, in cooperation with the leaders, presented an interesting and informative program.
Fashion Show To Take Place In Wilson April 26
The Home Economies Department is sponsoring a Fashion Show put on by Simplicity Pattern Company, Inc., of New York, April 26, 7:30 p. m. in Wilson Auditorium.
Miss Olive Berry, director of the show and College Fashion Ad- viser for the Simplicity Pattern Company, is an authority on clothing construction and brings^ to .her job a background of education and experience that well qualifies her for the interesting work she directs. She received training in Home Econo- mics at Mount Allison Girls School in Canada and holds a B.S. degree from Teachers College, Columbia Univer- sity. In the progress of her professional career, she has been a teacher of Home Economics in Canadian schools and in the United States. She has also served a term in retailing as director of fas- hion promotions for targe department stores. More recently, she has styled and presented fashion shows in high schools and colleges. This fall she has completed a tour of Canada where she introduced her company's educational program in the larger cities.
Highlights of the fashion show in- clude a dirndle outfit for casual wear made in terra-cotta and brown per- manent crease cotton, a bright navy wool gabardine bolero suit, accessori- zed with a gay plaid taffeta petticoat and matching umbrella case; for beach- wear, a gray sharkskin jersey bathing suit worn with a terry cloth poncho and gold sandals; a black basic dress which serves as a background for bright jackets, a net cape collar and an eyelet embroidered lawn overskirt; and a printed <teer vocl makes a softly styled date dress. For evening, there are two charming dresses, one of eyelet embroidered organdy and the other of green changeable faille taffeta with yellow cabbage roses emphasiz- ing the exaggerated hipline.
Accessories are always an interest- ing note in Miss> Berry's show. A var- iety of cummerbunds, a basket hand-

If in doubt as to whether or not you have paid, consult, the list on the bulletin board in Harrison Hall.
Representatives Attend Conference In Tallahassee, Fla., At University
Ida Hart Chappell, president of Stu- dent Government Association and Betty Lou Henshaw, chairman of the Honor Council, justreturned last week from a Student Government Associa- tion conference in Tallahassee, Florida. The conference began Thursday, April IS and lasted three days. It was held at Florida State University in Tal- lahassee.
Ida Hart and Betty Lou arrived at 5 o'clock Thursday afternoon. After re- gistration and dinner, they attended a discussion group which was led by Nancy Tucker from Randolph Macon College. There was also a reception Thursday night at which time they met the president and the deans of the col- lege, and talked with delegates from other schools.
Friday was spent attending discus- sion groups, later dividing into panels at which time the various colleges com- pared notes on their particular prob- lems. Friday night, Betty Lou and Ida Hart witnessed a performance of the Tarpon Club at the pool. The exhibi- tion was accompanied by music, and all sorts of acrobatics were done in the
water. On Saturday, the final business
meeting was held and officers were elected for the coming year. At this meeting the delegates from Mary Washington College extended an in- vitation to meet with them next year.
After the business meeting, all the delegates were taken on a tour of the campus and Tallahassee. Among other things, they saw the governor's man- sion, the capitol building, and also a number of old homes. That afternoon, a picnic was planned for them at tHe college camp situated on Lake Brad- ford.
A formal banquet at the Cherokee Hotel Saturday night climaxed the con- ference. The speaker for 41K evening was Chief Justice Elwyn Thomas of the Florida Supreme Court.
Ida Hart stated that it was "a very interesting and worth-while meeting" and also that she'd "like to see Madi- son take a more active part in that sort of thing in the future." She's hoping that we can send a much larger delega- tion to Mary Washington College next year.
THE BREEZE
Why Madison Needs A Magazine Many other colleges and universities have them—why not Madison?
We are in dire need of a monthly publication containing fiction, poetry, and other creative work of a high caliber rating in magazine form.
the Breeze, whose primary purpose is that of journalistic report- ing, is unable, therefore, to feature creative productions.by gifted stu- dents who are capable of turning out works which include literary ideals, the excellence of which is difficult to surpass. This magazine, with a student editor, would work hand-in-hand with a few members of the English department who would assist in the selection of magazine material. The latter should certainly not be hard to procure, since in Freshman English courses alone, several types of desirable literature are turned in each year by students. A publication of this sort would act as a definite incentive for the promotion of more and better creative work on campus. »
Such a publication through circulation would create a more inter- esting Madison among otherQchools and would be another means of introducing Madison to prospective students.
Can't Madison be'recognized among the scores of institutions who feature a magazine monthly ? We have the ability and interest—Why not the facilities? —O. V. W.
Let Us Rest In Peace Quiet! We know you've seen those signs on the doors if you
live in Junior, but it seems that it takes more than signs to make some people realize that a few lucky ones are fortunate enough not to have
8 o'clock claRes. Although you. may have been up for hours and be just bubbling
over with joy, happiness, or just plain animule spirits, others don't share your enthusiasm so early in the morning. Some few obnoxious per- sons can't even take a hint when a door jerks open, and tousled, heavy- lidded apparition yells "shut up" at the top of its lungs.
If you were at home, you would be more considerate of those who were still asleep. Here the same principle should apply even though your voice is above the average in quality, pitch, and resonance, or you just heard a joke that can't wait to be repeated.
Voices are not the only disturbing factor. Running, sliding, whistling, and blaring radios with wide-open transoms can be just as
sleep-shattering. A dormitory should be reasonably. quiet at- all times. In fact, if
a person is regarded as a disturbing element, said person can forfeit her right to reside in the dorm: So \he next time you feel yourself just bursting out all over In 'the early morning hours, wait until you get outside ink) more conducive and appreciative surroundings. After all, a little consideration never hurt anyone. Just try it and see!. F..C.

A tall, neatly dressed blonde was seen sitting on her traveling bag n the hall atf^ienandoah Thursday morning. Thinking that she was 'f' waiting for aWriend, the Pi Kap girls stopped to chat little realizing
that her bag contained their clothes and their money. After waiting about half an hour for her "friend," this stranger
picked up her bag and left. Previously she had visited Junior, but evidently the atmosphere was not as friendly or else the spoils were not as lucrative.
At the writing of this article, said blonde was being returned to Harrisonburg for identification after having been apprehended by the Alexandria poiice.
LETTER TO THE EDITOR
Baa Editor: We would like to register a small baa
complaint. It isn't that we object to having baa mutton, but let's call it baa mutton. Enough of this "lamb" busi- ness baa. But, though we appreciate baa the flavor and nutritive baa value of mutton, we baa are getting awfully •tired of having it served to us meal after meal. Baa. Our appetites are not the only things to be considered. We are.developing bleating baa tones of' voice as a result of the diet we're on. Baa. Too, a iumber of us have small bumps on our foreheads that look amazingly like Baa horns. Do you not agree that this baa is baa a regretable baa situation? Baa.

SHOWGOER Boys are going to be drips from now
on if they don't substitute "Scudda- Hoo! Scudda-Hay!" for the shop-worn wolf whistle. The answer to this great change will be found in the movie by the same name at the State next week. Starring curvacous June Haver and soulful Lon McAllister it promises' a blend of heart-warming emotion,-vio- lent conflict, and enthralling romance.
"The Big Clock" co-starring Ray Milland and Maureen O'Sullivan is at the Virginia Sunday through Tuesday. It is said to record thirty-six hours of the most savage, breathtaking man- hunt Hollywood has ever filmed.
School Spirit School spirit is another of those traits we all claim, but few actual-
ly possess. Everyone seems to agree that Madison lacks it, in spite of our friendly attitude. Suppose we try to improve with a few suggestions.
-••School spirit includes attendance at assembly and chapel programs as well as varsity games. Do we ever realize that while we skip, sleep, write, or read through assembly that we are missing much valuable in- formation for which our parents are paying in order that we may re- ceive its. rewards? Do we take into account that a well-rounded life includes religion and that the YW tries hard to give it to us2 It's time we realized the importanot_pf such programs, and consider 'it our privi- lege to attend them.
Most of the year when varsity games are held we see no more than 200 people present, at the most, out of Madison's 1200. We couldn't call that much spirit, and the same, even to a greater extent, goes for
music programs and such by students and faculty. When people work for a year, more or less, to accomplish something of importance they need recognition from others to help them convince themselves that they have been successful.
Let's start now to realize our responsibility as college students. We are old enough to realize that life is too short to lose any of its possibilities. And a red life is not making ourselves happy,, but it is a long fight to share our life with others. It all starts with the simple little reminder, "Let's show more school spirit."

ENNY'S OMMENTS By Maggie Kenny
Of interest locally, and perhaps of prophetic significance nationally, was
the mock Republican National Con-
vention held at Washington and Lee
University in Lexington Tuesday and Wednesday.
The W. and L. men did everything
possible to make the mock convention
realistic. They campaigned vigorously.
Tuesday they staged a big parade.
There were floats representing all the
States and the territories. Junie, a
thhree-yer old elephant, and the VMI
band led the parade which ended in
Doremus Gymnasium. There students
took their seats under delegated stand-
ards, heard the keynote address; elect-
ed a pei manent chairman, and drew up
their platform.
The outcome of the ninth ballot was
that Senator Vandenberg was nominat-
ed as the Republican candidate for the
presidency. Dewey had lead the list of
candidates of the first eight ballots.
Taft and Stassen stayed closely bal-
anced againSt each other.
Who knows but the students may be light! With Dewey, Taft, and Stassen each strong but not having a majority of the votes, a deadlock is possible and probable, and then Senator Van- denberg might easily emerge as the Republican candidate.
These mock conventions held at Washington and Lee have been accur- ate five times out of eight. Perhaps they will improve their record this year!
Greek Gossip Last Monday night Marie Garber
was initiated into Alpha Sigma Tau and installed as chaplain.' Pat Griffith, Polly Ross and Lib Collins were also initiated. The initiation was followed by a party at the house.
Greek Gossip late copy P2 CS Mrs. Evelyn Alden, National Secre-
tary of Theta Sigma Upsilon sorority, will visit the girls of Phi Chapter Mon:
clay through Wednesday of the coming week.l ,
Something To Chat About —
Jackie Burton got quite a thrill last Saturday night when Xavier Cugat and some of his band dropped in at the ATO House at U. Va, after the dance. Did he do a caricature, gal?
Lots of Madison girls were at said dances in Wahooland last week-end, but one of our delegates missed the boat—or rather two busses. Were Eas- ters fun, Fran?
And then we have the Madison pro- fessor who pulled the boner of ttie week when he flunked,the literacy test (or should, we say illeteracy) to quali- fy as voter in the forthcoming election.
Our candidate for Unusual Occupa- tions is Don Evans. Don is planning to train Seeing-Eye dogs in New Jer- sey.
If you see your favorite Madison belle having a scratching time have no fear, chum, it's not the usual cause, just an over dose of sunburn. Peeling can be painful—take it from one who knows.
If you need any lessons in the art of winking, just call on Jinx Miller,—she's becoming quite an expert these days.
Ask Beryl Snellings how to spell. He'll be glad to come to your aid.
We are now reminded of that fam- ous song— Now you may think that this is the end.

Dr. O. Walmemar Junek, professor of anthropology at New York Univer- sity, and widely known authority on cultural traditions and superstitions, spoke on the topic "Behavior Depends Upon Wome,n". last Wednesday in as- sembly, Freshman Class Day. He bases his discussion on the results of extensive research which in many cases has taken him into remote corners of the globe.
According to Dr. Junek, there are three types of family groups: our tra- ditional family; the family whose name descended the family tree by the ma- ternal side of the group, and the family in which the mother's elder brother as- sumed the care of her family. In his review of the historical development of the social organization, he, pointed out that woman was the absolute matriar- chate and has always strongly in- fluenced government. The "speaker contended that in "things that matter" woman is conservative, though in "things which do not. matter," such as fashions, she may be called progres- sive.
Dr. Junek's suggestion that wome should "take over" since men have made such a bloody mess of things, met with genuine applause, and ap- proval from the audience. He also re- commended that women be given wider opportunity to make their poten- tial contributions through service in larger numbers in all branches of go- vernment.
In closing, the speaker stated that he prefered "the definition of progress given by his Oxford professor who held that "true progress consists of in- creased love and continuous practice of love for one's fellows." This, he em- phasized, is the kind of progress repre- sented by woman, the mother of all ages . . . and the kind of progress, the

Three Freshmen Phy. Ed. Majors Boast Of Their Liberal Education
(The following was written by three very enthusiastic physical education majors (among the freshman.) All "phys. ed. girls" will love it and the rest of us may learn a lesson. We think it's good! The Editors.)
Have you noticed the happy-go- lucky attitude of the Physical Educa- tion majors here on campus? Whether you have or have not we shall endeavor to enlighten you upon the whys of the
subject. A Physical Education major has
learned through defeat, as well as vic- tory, the ups and downs of life and has learned to take them in her stride. Sportsmanship, willingness, enjoyment, and interest play a more important role than ability.
The varied classes in this course make for a better all-round person. The old addage, "All brawn and no brain" does not apply today, for this course prepares the student for ad- vanced academic work, in medicine, dance, physiotherapy as wel^as in phy- sical education. These factors go to- gether to make up an understanding personality.

The SpoMight. By BERYL SNELLINGS
The president of the United States, Harry Truman, at Washington, D. C. Tuesday afternoon opened the 1948 big league baseball season. As usual, Mr. President, tossed out the first ball of the year which was a symbol to teams all over the land to "Play Ball." And for a southpaw (left Hander) they said he did all right.
The two-day opening program was expected to attract a record total of 325,000 fans, and attract them it did. This year's baseball season promises to develop into the most exciting in many years. Pre- season ticket reservations totaling more than $4,000,000 and the richest rookie crop since before the War forms the basis for this great optimism.
Big names, colorful names will be seen again on your local paper's headlines. Leo (Lippy) Durocher, Joe McCarthy, former Postmaster General Bob Hannegan, Hank Greenburg, Dan Topping, and Bing Crosby are a few of the big-time managers and owners of your m»jor league ball clubs. And, of course, those all time favorites, will be there also. You know them; they're the stars of the games: Ted Williams, Joe Di Maggio, Bob Feller, Stan Musial, Charlie Keller, Mickey Vernon, and Hal Newnouser, to mention a few.
For some of us who haven't seen many big league baseball games this year might possibly.afford us that chance to see more. Washington, D. C, is the nearest city where we might be able to see a game, And in the five weeks left in this semester, and in the summer ahead, who knows that maybe someone will ask us to take a trip. Why not take in one of these games. It's a grand old American custom! _____
