Our Fiftieth Anniversary was a memorable occasion, and will encourage us in trying to make the Founder's Day that begins our next fifty years a big success. When we return to school in the fall we may look forward to seeing shining buildings, freshly painted walls and nice clean rooms. The campus also, will lie in keeping with the season, for it will be in the height of Its fall beauty. It is nice to reminisce of yesterday, but after all it is the adventurous tomorrow that we seek.

It seems that the old malady, known as spring lever, has visited the school and the result.', are somewhat disastroua m the field of athletics. What has happened to the interest In organised sports on the campus? Warm weather cannot be the entne cause of the noticeable lack of interest which was evident earlier in the year. Through the hockey, basketball, and volley ball seasons the number of active and inactive participants has decreased. There Ware not more than seventeen spectatOTI at any one of the class volleyball games, and all the teams were not complete Winning the color cup is an honor to the successful classes. It is also an honor to the individual who can feel that she helped bring victory

«g analogy between life and knitting. The average life is pretty well dotted with "dropped stitches"— mistakes that are discovered too late, and we cause ourselves an unary amount of trouble by rushing into situations and making arrangements or plans without givio them the thought which their serious nature deserves. The axioms of "haste makes waste", "fools rush in where angels fear to tread," and "a stitch in time saves nine." are perfectly true although we laugh at them quite often. We have to make decisions now that will materially affect us the remainder of our lives. Slow and cureful thinking will solve many problems and aid in avoiding a number of "dropped stitches." Life is a big ball of yarn—look out for the tangles and the "dropped stitches."
OPEN FORUM Dear Editor: We notice that a couple of the common "beverage" fountains have been fixed: however, there are still as many as five which are not working. These with their dirty and broken down appearance nv.ke ugly spots in our school. It is irue that the water fountains have been well located in the buildings, but, at prosent. with so many of them not working one very often has to walk to the other end of a building to quench her thirst. Of course, these fountains are needed more than ever in this warm weather, and if they were fixed I'm sure the entire student body would be deeply grateful. In fact, we would be so pleased that I'm sure the fountains would not be found clotted up with paper, trash and chewing gum as they used to be.

"Springtime! Soft music! Smooth girls!" and the search for the "All American Co-Ed" progresses! The 'cherchez la femme" contest being held by the Collegian of Richmond University seems to be more successful than the most collossal of expectations—"for the only reason the candidates' names have not been published as promised is that the printer will need at least two more weeks to set the type for names already received"!? Two names thus far—what a slur upon the pulchritude of the fair! So still the "great lovers" of Richmond U. arc urged to search, to find the girl of their dreams and incidentally aid the contest by a few nominations for the exalted title—"All American Co-Ed". The Duke Chronicle was awarded lust prise at the Collegiate Piess Convention recently held at Lexington, Ky. It was judged as one oi 'he best college newspapers in the United States.

What a horrid, measly little animal, why you can tell the minute one enters the room. Who wants to count sheep, anyway? Do you want to spend the rest of your life figuring how many sheep jumped the stile? Darn it! If they're so crazy mad after mathematics, let 'em count themselves.
There have been two very interesting articles by alumnae which have appeared in recent issues of Richmond Times - Dispatch. Florence Ingram has published an article. "English Study Held Basis of All Education" and Lottie Lee Thorpe has one. "Pupil's Health Needs Increase In Depression."

Rudy says Nancy Harrison's theme song is "Go in and out the windows." Seems to me it orta be, "I'm just a bird in a gilded cage." This faculty of ours she can rise to the occasion. Who would ever have pictured Dr. John P. Wynne, M. A., Phd., NRA, in a print dress, sox and a bonnet!! Wasn't Mr. Holton cute! Aunt Lucy's theme song, "Brighten the Corner Where You Are." Bess's theme song. "Whistlin' in the Dark." We knew the Lions were right bad off but when they got to the point where they thought Meg Herndon was dean of women we gave up. Tarzan has at last found his mate. Isn't that true, Laeta? Fancy Chub Denit reaching the point where she can give Weesle and Wye lessons on how to take it. Foolish, isn't it?

Mrs. Lillian Bugg Pifer has been elected vice-president of the Shawnee Garden Club of Winchester and Mrs. Helen Miller Brown elected secretary of the same organization. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Dillard Watts announce the marriage of theii daughter. Ann Elizabeth, to Mr. Redmond Prindiville Hogan on Saturday, April the 21st in Beckley, West Virginia. The Amherst Chapter of Farmville Alumnae will hold its spring meeting this Saturday. May 19. We will be glad to make a report of the meeting in the next issue of the Rotunda.
THE NEWSMONGER Who Makes War? May 18 will be celebrated as World Goodwill Day. and on that day it is hoped that the world will turn its attention away from destruction to friendship. Happenings in the past week, however, almost make us fear for world amity and make us wonder who is responsible for the present unrest, anyway. France, jealously guaraing her "security," announced to the world on May 9 that she was inquiring about an order for eighty airplane motors now being filled in England. She maintained that the motors were for military planes of the Hitler government. Britain coldly received the inquiry about her "private business" and indifferently replied that she had "assurance the engines were for the great German air service. Lufthansa, and were not to be put into military air-craft." The short sightedness of Englrnd who holds that "business is business" even if her manufacturers sell to a nation who. she has every right to believe, will try again to destroy her. brings our attention to tjhe munition manufacturers the world over. We, ourselves, are selling nitrates and other materials of war to Japan while the English admit that they do not know whether a supply of guns they recently shipped to the continent were really going to Austria for defense or were placed in the hands of the German government. The influence of munitionmakers seems paramount in this question of world armament, as ably pointed out by Senator Borah who said on March 5: "So long as the munition manufacturers exercise the influence which they now wield with governments we shall make little progress in reducing armaments . . . I know of no way to restrain them except for the government to take from them the power to manufacture ..." It has been estimated that it costs $25,000 to kill a soldier in time of war, a great part of which goes into the pockets of the munition manufacturers. No wonder they have Influence! Today, Germany is seeking to persuade the world to her point of view in re-arming, and Britain is trying to justify her position in supplying her with materials to make her well-equipped by 1936. With all the propaganda abroad, the fear nations have of each other, the accelerating pace of armament, it is not surprising that disarmament conferences fail. Before amity and goodwill will accomplish anything in the world, all detracting influences and selfish Interests must be destroyed.
"Lamb In His Bosom" and "Men In White" Win Pulitzer Prizes "Men In White", a surgical drama, by Sidney Kingsley and "Lamb in His Bosom", by Caroline Miller, received the 1933-34 prizes in letters in the annual award of Pultizer Prizes m3d on May 7 at a dinner in New York. The play was finally decided upon i by the advisory board .over such fiercely competitive productions as Eugene O'Neill's "Ah. Wilderness", Maxwell Anderson's "Mary of Scoti land," and Sidney Howard's stirring play of the Walter Reed yellow fever ' eradication campaign. "Yellow Jack." "Men In White la an extraordin, ary play. It captures reality with almost a passion of sincerity and it breathes a spirit of idealism the idealism of the medical profession. In ,i world of unncertainty the men of science go on to a certain goal and with no fuss illustrating the beauty of self-sacrifice. It deals with the me-iical profession, with the doctors and nurses who consecrate themselves to the Hippocratlon ideal, and with a young doctr's initiation to the rigorous realities by which alone the profession of medicine can maintain its high ethical level. No compromise with those realities. Dr. Ferguson learns, can be tolerated. Mr. Kingsley has developjed in dramatic and exciting terms the conflict between the doctor and his fiancee to the tragic consequences of his attempt to mix the things of the world with his duty. "Men In White" is dedicated thus: "To the men in medicine who dedicate themselves with quiet heroism to man." "Lamb In His Bosom" is a beautiful and deeply moving book. It is laid in southern Georgia the half century preecding the Civil War. The people are all real, living people. Lonzo speaks through deed; and has the strong vigor of the pioneer. Cean. his wife shows the woman is stronger than man. Life comes to them more or less as a tragedy. She learr.s the lesson that grief carries one nowhere, and accepts without complaint. The novel shows elemental life in the out-of-way places. Mrs. Miller impresses one as telling without melodrama or self-consciously the story becomes warm and pleasurable. Its explicitness of sight and sound and feeling; its unusual turns of simple word and phrase, give it honest beauty.

Joan Crawford FRAXCIIOT TONE
"SADIEMcKEE" This picture is so new that you probably have not heard of It, yet the preview critics praise it as the best picture Joan Crawford ever made. The management had difficulty getting it before college closes and its showing here is before any of the large cities. It is from the story by Vina Delmar; ran serially in Liberty. It is a fast-action story of the romantic and dramatic career of Sadie McKee, a girl whose driving ambition for fame and love carried her from calico to ermine with many amazing interludes. The kind of picture you like Joan Crawford to appear in. Don't miss It. Also Eugene Palette and Walter Catlett in "Sailors Beware" and Metro News. Adults: 25c at Mats., 35c at nights

Frances Dee Gene Raymond COMING OUT PARTY "It cost me $50,000 to meet my friends," says this deb. Beauty on the bargain counter, pawed over by a lot of Park Avenue play-boys. Look behind the scenes: see the highpressure methods of an ambitious society mother trying to sell her beautiful daughter to the highest bidder. This deb was launched like a battle ship, with crowds cheering bands playing, champagne effervescing— and did she make a splash. She fell for a poor guy at that.

By L. SANFORD We take this opportunity to congratulate our tennis team on the improvement and skill they displayed in their matches Saturday. When a singles match requires two hours and a half for the playing there's bound to be some competition and that's exactly what we gave William and Mary. Anyone who falied to go out for tennis missed a lot of fun. For verification of this statement see Billy Rountree and get her to tell you about the week-end at William and Mary. The matches were very, very good but other things seem to have been good too. Ask Sarah Beck about the new baseball rules. She seems to have an idea that when a person gets a little bored with second base, they should move on. at least this is the impression she gave when she yelled to a fellow sufferer who was hung on second. "What do you say we as captain during her senior year. Nannie Ruth has distinguished herself in other sports such as basketball and volley ball, and has played on class teams in both of these sports. Nannie Ruth is a valued member of the Monogram Club and this year has served as treasurer of the Athletic Council. She is also president of the Mathematics Club. All of us who know Nannie Ruth admire her very much, for she Is truly a good sport, a steady worker, and an altogether interesting and lovable girl.
