N m xxx xxmnsnxax The Simple Fling is the reason we are all here. This first movement of our life as a scudent body covers yawning attention to scarcely-moving watch hands, amazement as an Idea penetrates our mental haziness, delight at any morsel of praise for the slavery of hours. It's labor: it's fun: it's reward in itself: it's the common complaint. All of us spend the best part of our days studying for, going to, and griping about . . .

Labs, from art to zoo, require afternoons of work. Titration needs patience and steady hands, Jane Walker finds in Chemistry. 1 A A From 8:20 On Clutching white schedules and yellow slips, we went through registration. After braving the book- store lines, we emerged with piles of texts, ready to begin .... And six days a week we labored .... The first tests gave the freshmen a scare, until they found it was all in the course of college life. . . . As usual, some sophomores dropped Lit and the rest were ready to drop themselves .... Charts rolled in to Dr. Bullock, outlines, themes, and autobiographies to the English department .... We were actually glad to go to classes early on the days before holidays, not minding the day students' being twenty minutes late .... Then it was January and exams put us in a state enot of relaxation. It wasn't so bad to have them start in the middle of the week .... The cycle started over: frog-dis secting sessions, field trips, one hundred pages a. week, and more quizzes .... The keyboards con- tinued to be the area of exercise for Conserve stu- dents, and Hngers are good for painting, the art class found .... Cuts were precious and we stretched them as far as possible .... Alarm clocks aroused the early birds to study at five or six, and term papers kept us up nearly all night at least once. . . . Practice sets assured the tilists and accountants among us of something to do .... Conferences and counting up the minimum forty-tive were peculiar pleasures of the student teachers .... Pencil sharp- eners were filled and emptied hundreds of times. At the end we purchased the little blue books again. And once in a while we remembered the professors were having as much work to do as we were.
