College at Brownwood. Texas a a part of the student actl it
other powers by our present system of foreign aggres-
sion. What the Chinese do is not what we should be in-
terested in for we were not asked to come to China and
the people that are in China were given a chance to get
out and if they did not take the chance then should wo
send an army against the Chinese because of the stub-
born attitude of the Americans fn China? Just imagine
what the attitude of the people of the United States
would be if England and Spain should occupy New York
and the Northern States and if Mexico and France
should occupy California and the Western States and if
i Germany should take the New England States and we
would find foreigners on every turn occupying the lands
I that we call our "Own Nt-tive Land The Home of the
Free and Land of the Brave?" I say "Let the Chinese
have China and settle the Mexican question with words
not American Youth."

.SHALL WE DISCARD BASEBALL ENTIRELY?.
This season the baseball park of Howard Payne has
heen minus the shouts of frenzied eager excited base
ball fans as the Jackets and some opponent played for
the glory of the colleges represented and many good
students and baseball men are not in our student bodv
a a result of the move that cut baseball out of our
athletics. Not only have we been deprived of the sport
and the men but there are those loyal fans that have al
ways waited patiently for the shout of the umpire to
'Play Ball" and are now disappointed and looking else-
where for the excitement of the game they love so well.
Football has its fans and there are men who can play
football th'at are not baseball fans. There are men though
that cannot play football that can make the diamond j
game sizzle with hot plays thrilling moves and long hit j
balls. A baseball man cannot be expected to remain in
a place that does not foster his game and there are too
many places for him to go that do foster the game of his i
desire for him to stay elsewhere. Perhaps there is a debit
tide of the game that is larger than the credit BU ! BtmmooA n cltJ of Mntlnu. (be KimavAam lnstcad of thc rInc

It seems that the time has arriyed when the joy of
watching a football game from an understanding view

please" It would seem that such has been the problem C(j
or rather the thought of so many who judge the students
in the American Colleges and Universities today.
Perhaps in many cases the revolt has come from
just causes and no doubt it was for a definite purpose
On the other hand many college students are apt to
"make a noise" just to be doing something. Freedom
of course is desirable at all times but there is a limit
even to freedom.
The college student body of today is almost un-
controllable. He comes and goes as he pleases. Even
then he is not satisfied but often times feels that a great
injustice is being done to him. The question which
naturally arises is is it all for the better or the worse "
That question is hard to answer but generally the stu
dent is sincere in what he does no matter how bad or
indifferent. He merely tries to emphasize his actions
no matter in what endeavor.
Each year many new activities are entered into by
the student bodies of the country. This is not a desire
to "do as I please" so much as a desire on the part of the
student for more and better advantages and advance-
ment not only for himself but for his fellow under-
graduates and his school. I

OUR FOREIGN POLICY
It is with pleasure that we note that at last the head
of our great nation is making a move toward something
(besides intervention in something thet is of no concern '
to us for we are not ready to sacrifice lives and liberty to i
see that some nation does what she does not want to just
'to please us. America is a wonderful nation offering
possibilities to all that are unsurpassed by any nation I
'and the nations of the world are wanting to copy after
the United States but no nation is going to copy after an '
enemy and the policies of the U. S. have been so over-1
bearing that we are losing the cherished respect of the.
