Here he is faced with the two-headed monster,Responsibility and Self-Discipline. Every day brings its own problems to be solved — the many different ways there are to word a request home for money; how to study with the phonograph, the radio, and the room¬ mate all going at the same time; and how to make the remain¬ ing shreds of the meal ticket last the month. If the Freshman can lick problems like this, he can surely defeat the wicked collegiate monster. Somewhere in the shadowy halls of ivy lurk even more foreboding horrors. These grim apparitions haunt the foot¬ steps of the lowly Freshman. . . right up the hill to the Bar- SR-Bar.

His discovery of the wisdom of SAFETY IN NUMBERS! 27
