-Mainly
New officers have task before ihem.
Four students wore recently elected to serve as student
association officers for next year four students who by the
force of their individual personalities and extent of work
put forth by their campagin managers have won for them-
selves the most respected offices on this college campus.
It is they who will work in behalf of the student body
who elected them in good faith they who will continue How-
ard Payne's traditional good will.
And it is they who candestroy the fine work of student
associations in the past.
Much depends upon the nature of their work it is true;
but the fact that the student body's attitude is likewise de-
trimental must also be considered. Our help is necessary; our
support required.
To the officers we say this:
You are not to forget the responsibilities of your offices.
You are to work not in the interest of one minority group
but for the welfare of the student body as a whole.
You are not to forget the faith your fellow students
have placed in you by their votes and therefore must work
alwavs to show vourself worthv capable and honorable.
You must be steadfast in your decisions recognizing
however the possibility of error even in yourself.
And you must have as your one goal a better student
association hence a better school.
To the student body this thought might be mentioned:
You have selected from a large group of people those
few who you think will prove most satisfactory in the specific
duties alloted them by each office. You have also revealed
the extent of your judgement of character your personal.
And you have also pledged your allegiance to them by
placing their names on your ballot.
With this in mind consider the question carefully before
you criticize their faults as human beings and their mistakes
as officers of your student council.
We are looking forward to 1953-1954 when Parkie Hilt
A. J. Quinn Nancy Barnes and Don McCullough as leaders
of the student association fulfill the promise of their am-
bitions and reward the faith of their classmates.
Clothes for the children of Korea
Korea which used to be the land of happy children.
What is it today? It is a land full of starved children
children without enough clothing.
Yes our boys are fighting for our freedom to keep
America safe and free. They are fighting for peace we all
desire.
What can we do to help the Korea children? Now think
do the innocent Korean children want this terrible war? Are
they at fault because they were evacuated from their homes
torn from the arms of their loved ones? Are they at fault
because they do not have enough food clothing very few
schools? Have they the opportunities that we have here in
our own land? Are they to be blamed for their ignorance
in meeting the situations the hardships the higher standards
that we have here in America? Are they proud of their filth
the ruins that used to be their homes?
What do we do in our own land? Shamefully I admit
that we do not even pray enough for our boys and for peace.
We think of ourselves and linger in our own footsteps instead
of Gods. We think not of others but of Me. We time our-
selves each day to see just how little we can do. We think
we have a hard struggle but do we? How many do you
knew who are freezing to death starving. Not any.
You say well what can I do to help. Korean children
need all kinds of clothing dresses trousers caps shoes socks
shirts gloves coats. What about that pair of shoes and those
two sweaters someone threw away on second floor last week?
Did you think of what use they could be to Korean children?
You can do your part by helping give to thousands of home-
less children.
If we could give and just make one Korean child happy
do you think it would be worth it? Do you?

No wonder the kitchen runs out
