URSINUS COLLEGE- T H 6 U R 51 n U 5 DJ £ £ K L Y Since the inception ol the Weekly on September 20. 1902. ii has continually progressed from a foili colunin. loin page paper, which was much shortei than the one published today, to the present five column paper, which covets the news ol a college that has mote than doubled the enrollment ol that year. I he initial issue that of making the papei the voite of the students of I t sinus—has been the foremost aim ol the succeeding editois. For. at its best, the college paper should be a true pic title of campus life, embodying its best traditions. records, and hopes. I his yeat we have endeavored to maintain the high standards established by the Wrekh stalls of formci years. In realizing that the pajret is one ol the most important means of contact which the students, especially the gteat numbet ol clay students, have with the college activities, we have made an effort to present a complete c toss-sec lion ol events when covering the general news events. Out editorial column has been used to comment on situations, events, and proposals concerning those activities which have had some relation to the majority ol students. Those who have written the articles which appealed in the- IRC column have presented discussions on national and international cptestions which they lelt should be of ital concern to the filmic leaders ol the cotintt .
