              Faculty Members More Guilty Of
Unfair Criticism Than Students
(Editorial)
al< tit feature of Auburn life is the griping one hears. Be-

We will continue to be militant only when militancy will serve

taste, bad psychology, and is generally irksome to all.

College Signs
Contract With
Army Officials
Officers Are Pleased
With Arrangements
For Handling STARS
A formal contract for the
ASTP program was negotiated
and signed here yesterday, when
a party of army officials from
Fourth Service Command Head­quarters,
of Atlanta, and college
officials agreed on the terms un­der
which the STARS will use fa­cilities
and personnel of the col­lege.
Active Since April 8
The contract covers the period
from April 8, when the STARS
program was activated, until the
close of the fiscal year at which
time it will probably be renewed.
J Colonel J. W. Haralson and his
•party seemed well pleased with
the arrangements for handling
the STAR trainees here, it was
announced.
Numbers To Be Augmented
It is understood here that the
number of STARS now here for
classification, said to be 500, will
be augumented as rapidly as
classification progresses and the
young men are sent to other
schools for training, and that lat­er
on Auburn will retain as many
or more of the STARS for its own
engineering school than are sent
elsewhere, thereby giving the
local college a more permanent
military population from this
source.
Additions
The Army has been using the
full services of three members of
the API faculty in classifying
STARS. They are R. B. Draughon.
Dr. B. W. Mullins and Dr. W. F.
Jacob. In addition, several mem­bers
of the faculty have been
called upon for temporary help.
The Army has sent five officers
here to take charge of the classi­fication
program. They are Capt
Lee, Lieut North, Lieut Geart-ner,
Lieut Buhman, and Lieut.
Woodward.
The qualifications committee of the Student Publications
Board will meet with candidates for publication offices in the
office of the Executive Secretary on Monday night at 7:30
p. m.
Three offices will be vacant at the end of this quarter, the
editorship and business managership of The Plainsman and
the business managership of the Glomerata.
With the candidates being qualified on Monday night, the
polls will be opened on Monday,
May 17, for the purpose of elect­ing
the students to fill the three
positions.
Sam Boroughs, chairman of
the Elections Committee, an­nounced
today that juniors and
seniors would be allowed to vote
in the election.
Qualifications which must be
met by the candidates are: a
2-grade-point average, a mini­mum
of 90 semester hours upon
the date of candidacy, certain
courses with an average of 2-
grade-points in each, a year's
experience on the publication,
and a thousand-word paper on
plans for work in the office de­sired.
The Plainsman
The Plainsman will continue as
usual until conditions arise which
necessitate a change. No curtail­ment
of features is contemplated
at present.
The Glomerata
Plans for the 1944 Glomerata
are now being considered by the
Student Publications B o a r d.
These plans indicate that the
next yearbook will be patterned
as closely as possible along the
lines of the prewar annuals.
The date of publication has not
been announced as yet, but will
probably be during the spring
quarter of 1944.
Some Curtailment
There will necessarily be some
curtailment of the features,
from the possible reduction of
civilian enrollment at Auburn.
The class section will remain
essentially the same with sec­tions
for each of the four classes
in school, the students being ar­ranged
as usual in alphabetical
order. The section containing the
photographs of students will cov­er
the classes from this, the first
quarter of the school year, until
the publication of the annual. All
students who leave school for the
armed services will have such a
note accompanying the photo­graph
along with the date of his
leaving school.
Features
With the funds remaining after
the presentation of the class sec­tions,
a group of features will
present the activities of the vari­ous
groups on the campus: civil­ian
students and members of the
Army, Navy, and the Marine
Corps.
Since the fraternities and orga­nizations
have always paid for
their space 'in the Glomerata.
this practice will continue un­changed.
However, because of the
cost of the usual panel, for fra­ternities,
rh particular, a group
picture will probably be used by
the majority of them.
Sent To Homes
Those students who are called
into service, even though enrolled
here for only one quarter, will
have the book sent to their homes
upon publication. Other students
sports, etc., because of the cut in I will get the books in the usual
appropriations which may result I way.

of the times.
Much Variety
The most noticeable feature of
the concert was the variety of the
numbers offered by the singer.
In the first part of the program
he sang numbers such as Han­del's
majestic "Thanks Be To
Thee"; in the second part he of­fered
such numbers as Tschaik-owsky's
"None but the Lonely
Heart" and "Pilgrim's Song"; in
the final two parts he delighted
his audience with comic songs
and moved them with Negro spir­ituals.
High Spelt
The two high spots of the pro­gram
were Mr. Druary s rendi­tion
of the difficult "Prologue to
Pagliacci," which was rendered
in a masterful manner, and "Song
of the Flea," which was inter-all
formations, problems, and
classes on those two days. In ad­dition

"Being Upset" No Excuse For Non-Work
Arc you "upset"? Has your favorite girl
joined the WAVES? Has your roommate
and credit account joined the Marines? Or
has the draft board or the War Department
finally decided that you are the very per­son
needed to fill out this man's army and
bring it up to the top?
If you are, don't try to dodge your stud­ies
just because your little world isn't the
same as it was a year ago, just because
events are happening fast and you are in
the midst of the turmoil that accompanies
this rapidity of action.
A professor of ours devoted a great por­tion
of one early morning class period to
the subject of "being upset" and the use
of that fact as an excuse to cover laziness
on the part of students in completing the
work already started during this quarter.
lie dwelt at length upon the subject,
and we hope that he will not mind our re­peating
his ideas and ;1lustrations for they
art1 very true and clear.
If you were to go into a cafe and order
ham and eggs, or coffee and doughnuts,
how would you feel if the waiter answered,
"I'm sorry, but I can't, get them this morn­ing.
I'm upset." Or if you climbed into a
barber chair for a haircut and the barber
said, "Sorry, I can't cut your hair today.
I'm upset."
Sounds ridiculous, doesn't it. You would
probably answer him with a laugh and
walk out to another beanery. His troubles
are no worry of yours, and all you expect
of him is your coffee and doughnuts, ac­companied
by the same service as usual.
After all, the ERCs or the Navy or the Ma­rines
are going to be called soon, and you
have your worries as to some method of
keeping your hair or of persuading little
Nell to wait until you return from the
war. You expect business to go on as usual,
with every person doing his work the same
as always, keeping up with his job. That is
the way that it should be.
And that is the way it should be with
your studies. You may be expecting orders
for induction at any time . . . you may be
waiting with a packed bag, ready to leave
on a moment's notice . . . you may even be
in uniform now . . . that is no excuse for
dismissing studies as unimportant now.
Not only will you need every particle of
knowledge learned during this quarter, but
every bit that is wrapped in those dull
textbooks that you carry to class to im­press
the teacher. It may mean the differ­ence
between life or death on some battle­field
some months from now.
And it will certainly mean the differ­ence
between life and death after this war
is won. With the rapidity of action that is
now prevalent in the world, a person can
not afford to waste even a short two weeks.
Grades are a goal to work for but they are
not the only goal. Knowledge of a subject
and grades are the results of study and
hard work.
Whether this is your first quarter in
school or your last quarter here, don't
stop now! With exams only two short
weeks off, dig in and let the fur fly. By
all means, don't attempt to blame any lack
of knowledge or laziness upon the excuse
that you're "upset." It just won't hold
water.

Auburn Personalities
By SHIRLEY SMITH
Suspended Production Indefensible Move
President Roosevelt deserves to be con­gratulated
on his swift and efficient hand­ling
of the coal strike. If this procedure
were applied to all striking organizations
the war effort would benefit greatly. There
is no room in an all-out production pro­gram
for strikers.
One cannot deny the right of labor to
organize and to bargain, but one can deny
its right to suspend production because of
some minor complaint. Let the forces of
labor bargain and make request but do not,
under any circumstances, allow them to
suspend work for even one minute.
Suppose our soldiers could and did strike
for higher wages and shorter hours? How
far would we go in this war? Suppose the
men of the British fleet had decided that
the evacuation of Dunkirk required too
much work on their part? Where would
Britain be now? Suppose General MacAr-thur
and his men on Corregidor had de­cided
that their twenty-four hour day was
too long? Where would we have been in
the first month of the war?
Yes, we know that some will say the
soldiers would fight continuously in the
interest of self-preservation. But is not
everything that we do to further the war
effort done in the interest of self-preserva­tion?
Are we not making bombs and planes
and ships and guns to help our soldiers
preserve the American way of life? Or
are we merely working for the financial
gain we can get out of our employers.
Yes, out there our friends and sweet­hearts
and fathers and brothers are fight­ing
twenty-four hours a day for us. Can
we not work eight or ten hours a day with­out
finding some slight grievence about
which to complain?
Civilian Duties Still Vitally Necessary
The recent induction and processing of
students in Advanced ROTC and the ERC
has resulted in much discussion among
the remaining students. Some feel unpa­triotic
about remaining as students in civ­ilian
clothes; some dislike the idea of be­ing
called "4-F" at home.
I t , i s not the opinion of the student that
is important. Most civilian students are
here at the pleasure of the army, as re­serves,
inactive commissioned officers, and
ERCs taking approved courses. At the
proper time these students will be called.
It was not the intention of the army and
navy that these specially appointed men
should volunteer at the first provocation.
It is self-evident with each turn of events
in this war that training, highly skilled
and technical, is an important factor both
in production and actual fighting. The
necessary manpower for immediate action
is being obtained from sources other than
college as much as possible. Men compe­tent
and educated enough to lead and di­rect
these draftees are not easily found as
ordinary civilians. The bulk of these lead­ers
must be obtained from colleges.
Dropping school work and resultant in­duction
is definitely as unpatriotic as leav­ing
essential war work for non-essential
work. b:--:-

Mr. George Marion O'Donnell, Auburn
The other day in the library, I was looking by chance
through a book called "Five Young American Poets," pub­lished
in 1940 by New Directors Press. The book gave the fa-milar
name of George Marion O'Donnell as one of the five
poets and had reprinted a collection of 25 of his poems. Thus,
you see, Mr. O'Donnell is well-qualified to teach English at
API.
After receiving his B. S. and M. A. degrees in English at
Vanderbilt, and studying under John Crowe Ransom, promi­nent
American poet, and Thomas M. Parott, widely-known
Shakespearean authority, Mr. O'Donnell went to Mississippi,
not to write poetry, but to manage the family plantation!
* * *
When he was rid of his plantation duties, Mr. O'Donnell
was asked back to Vanderbilt for a year to take a special com­bination
job of teaching and writing. When this job expired he
tried to devote all his time to writing.
* * *
"But I got lonesome for a college campus and was glad of
the opportunity in 1941 to teach at Auburn. To me, students
have the freshest minds of anyone. I have profited a great
deal by my association with young people.
"I believe it part of a teacher's duty to help students to be­come
more rounded human beings at the same time that they
are acquiring knowledge." Mr. O'Donnell agrees with various
other faculty members in saying that when he was in school
he learned more from association with faculty members out­side
classes than in them.
* # *
"I find it hard to write and teach at the same time since
each activity requires the same kind of creative energy. At
present, I have three unfinished novels in desk drawers, locked
up; none are good enough for publication. But now I am work­ing
on a fourth novel which I believe wilLwarrant publish­ing."
* * *
Listening to music is one of Mr. O'Donnell's hobbies. "Let
me emphasize the listening part," he said. "The only musical
instrument I can play is the victrola!"
* * *
He not only likes classical music but boogie woogie "in its
place." "I'm particularly addicted to Dinah Shore since she
was a classmate of mine at Vanderbilt. She was just starting
her singing career then and used to have a fifteen-minute pro­gram
over a tiny local station."
* * *
Other of Mr. O'DonnelFs interests include the theater, walk­ing,
and playing Russian bank. He used to work with the Mem­phis
Little Theater, painting scenery backstage; his walking
hobby has boomed since gas rationing; he plays Russian bank
every time he can inveigle a partner.
* * *
Mr. O'Donnell has had poetry published in more than 25
magazines, some of which are The Nation, The New Yorker,
and Poetry: a Magazine of Verse. He also writes critical arti­cles,
the one on William Faulkner having attracted the most
attention since it was one of the first full-length articles on
that subject to be printed in this country. His plantation ex­perience
must have had its effect too, for he has also written
on the relation of agriculture to southern society.
* * *
""I admit having a bad temper, but fortunately, my sense of
humor comes to the rescue. In fact, this sense of humor is al­most
over-developed to the point of getting me into trouble
on several occasions."
* • r
George Marion O'Donnell talks like a veteran of literature;
his classes have found his knowledge seemingly inexhaustable.
The students say he has the rare faculty of holding their at­tention
always.

their physical training course.
How about the poor boys?

An Auburn citizen recently
sent a letter to the President
suggesting that he treat John L.
Lewis as a traitor. He also rec­ommended
that all strikers be
treated in the same manner. We
agree with him in regard to Lew­is
but must disagree when he
suggests that all strikers be treat­ed
in the same manner. Some of
the workmen are reluctant to
strike but their membership in
the union compels them to do so.
And they cannot get a job with­out
joining the union.
* * *
Whenever much power in a
country is vested in one man un­desirable
situations develop. And
that's just what has happened
here. The CIO is one of the most
powerful single organizations in
the country today and most of its
power is invested in Lewis. Take
the power from Lewis—how, we
don't know—and the entire situa­tion
will be helped, provided, of
course, that some other power-mad
person don't replace him.

The campus promises to be a
very strange place next quarter.
When we first came here there
were many boys and few girls
and now it seems that the situa­tion
is to be reversed. We can
find only one or two boys wh
say they will be here next quar­ter.
If this wholesale migration of
the male population continues
maybe someday even we will be
able to get a date.

at its face value:
Breathes there a man
around this school
sufficiently

enough to limit

Who has the decency
to wait
until at least

and give a girl
some preparation
before expecting
osculation
at least an hour
in duration?
If such there be

he had for dinner
that makes him feel so sick.
Stuff and Nonsense

Editor's note: The opinions expressed
In this column are those of the writer
and are not to be construed as the edi­torial
policies of tht* oaner.
Somebody ought to invent a
strapless sun suit for the girls
around here to take sunbaths in.
•They certainly have a time try­ing
to appear modest when they
let the straps on their suits down
so they won't leave a print on the
shoulders. They go through quite
a few contortions to complete that
little operation—and aie very,
very careful 'cause one slip and
oh—
* * *
This could apply to any wom­an:
Some are true;
Others are not,
They'll either love you,
Or what you've got.
* * »
And this is what nine out of ten
would do in a similar situation:
"Look out! He exclaimed,
'"There's a bone in your fish!"
D'ye think she said thanks
And laid it back on the dish?
"Mind your own business," she
said;
I'll manage alone."
And to show her independence,
She swallowed the bone.
* * *
And this goes on all the time:
It wasn't love-light
For him in her eyes,
That he knew:
But it was alright,
He was telling lies
To her too!
* » *
Why haven't the girls who
moved into the frat houses given
some functions for the guys who
moved out? Maybe I'm wrong in
saying that it is the girls' fault.
Could it be that the authorities
or "The Authority" won't allow
them to have parties, dances, etc.
If this is true, apologies to the
girls and nertz to whomever is
responsible.

Getting out this column is no
picnic.
If we print jokes people say we
are silly:
When we don't they say we are
too serious.
If we clip things from other
papers
We are too lazy to write them
ourselves,
If we don't, we are too fond of
our own stuff.
If we don't print contributions,
We don't appreciate real genius;
If we do the paper is filled with
junk.
Now like as not someone will
say
We swipped this from some
other magazine—
We did!
* + *
Seems that quite a few guj •
were royally gypped Tuesdaj
when they bought a ticket to th(
victory dance. This ticket wa
supposed to be good for an ex­cuse
from PE Tuesday. Thirty
minutes before the dance begai
PE was -excused. Now they tell
the suckers who bought the tick­ets,
the tickets were only good
for Tuesday.—Pretty good racket
but I bet it wouldn't work again

There are quite a few geni
who would like to know
graduation exercises can't b<
held in the morning instead of al
2 o'clock in the afternoon. No
particular reasons why it shoul
be held in the morning' except
that it has always been held at
that time and except for the fact
that the seniors want it in the
morning — which seems reason
enough—after all who's bein«
graduated?
Some seniors would like to hoi
the exercises in the stadium,
weather permitting — instead ol
in Langdon Hall. Again no par-ticular
reason except that Lang­don
Hall is not the best audito­rium
in the world.

Remember Mother
Gary Cooper Portrays
Famed First Baseman
Of New York Yankees
The romance of a famous ath-jlete
and a typical American girl
is the real-life basis of "Pride of
the Yankees," Samuel Goldwyn's
j newest production for RKO Radio
release showing at the Tiger
Theater Sunday and Monday
with Gary Cooper starring.
Gary Cooper Stars
Cooper portrays the noted New
• York Yankee ballplayer, Lou
; Gehrig, whose untimely death
j from paralysis ended one of the
most inspiring careers in modern
sports annals. Millions of Ameri­cans
knew of Gehrig's amazing
exploits on the diamond but very
few knew the man himself, or of
his courageous struggle upward
from poverty—and it is the hum­an
"behind the scenes'' story of i
the former janitor's son and the
Chicago girl he married that
Goldwyn has brought to the;
screen.
Opens In Vacant Lots
Opening with Gehrig as an
eager eleven-year-old playing
baseball on the vacant lots along
Amsterdam Avenue in New
York, the picture reaches a dra­matic
conclusion on the memor­able
"Lou Gehrig Day" at the
Yankee Stadium in 1939 when an
army of fans gathered for' their
hero's farewell to the game he
loved.
