And How! TRY AS WE WILL, there always seem to be obstacles to our successful pursuit of scholarshiip. We go to tfie library, seriously intending to catch up on current events, but somehow we find our- selves investigating the fate of the Dodgers, or the tribulations of Ann and Abby ' s correspond- ents. We get our books lined up for a long un- interrupted session, and the very thought of it all exhausts us and we succumb to the tempta- tions of a short siesta. Or we find a comfortable spot in an isolated corner of the Quad and settle down with a congenial companion, only to find that no matter how studious our original inten- tions, other impulses always seem to seize us. Truly the path to scholarship is bordered with primroses. OR THE GOOD GREEN SOD Linda Adorns and Bill Berndl have found a unique melliod of study. It may not be the best way, but it certainly is the most en- joyable—Agree? A NICE SOFT BENCH-Some students study better in a sitting up position, while others, like Ed Prxebienda, will study best when the body is in a relaxed, prone position. Such posture is especially helpful to near-sighted people.

We Study CERTAIN reactionary souls keep insisting that college is a place to study. There is some truth to this charge, for every once in awhile we manage to find someone with his nose in a book. Psy- chology 49 instructors do their best to teach us the most efficient ways of acquiring knowledge. They tell us how important it is to find a quiet place to study, one free from distractions. They stress the necessity of having all materials on hand, of working in a temperature neither too hot nor too cold, of developing just the right mental attitude toward scholarly endeavor. Like the conscientious students we are, we do our best to secure all these conditions for effective study. We really do. IN THE LIBRARY-We S33 Anthony Scott breezing through the morning newspaper. He is using the most conventional method of not studying. ON THE QUAD-AAany students find that the Quad is more conducive to study. Thinking of killing two birds with one stone by getting a tan and some studying done at the same tim9, they take books in hand and look for an empty bench.
