they had more men on bases than

One of the high points o·f this
year's gridiron play thus far has
been Dick Nemyre's punting. To
date he has a record of 38.5 yards
for 18 punts and a kickoff aver
age of 48 yards out of 14 a..t

this has pulled many ieams out

The rally sponsored by Sigma

Various campus organizations

Permission to hold the parade

for either plan A or B which are:
Plan A. Eleven o'clock classes

11 as scheduled and half at 12.
Those meeting at 12 would have
their lunch period from 11 to 12

scheduled at 12:30 would meet
at 12 and the other half remain
as scheduled at 12:30. Those
meeting at 12 wou).d have their
lunch period from 1 to 1 :30.

• Ceilings for combined earnings

Political Policy
In view of the recent disagreements over the banning of
' Henry Wallace from speaking engagements on the campus,
we wonder why there are not other means available for the
exercise of the rights of full expression.
This college's policy does not favor the appearance of
any individual candidate who represents any partisan fac
tion. A way to have all sides of different issues presented
and still maintain neutrality would be to schedule debates
between candidates, party leaders or other influential indi
viduals. For instance, how could there be a better means of
exerdsing the American heritage of free speech than the
coming discussion forum this Monday between the different
state political leaders.
We students can in this way attempt to discern the good
from the erroneous. After all, in such a controversial field as
politics it is very necessary to hear all pros and cons.
Weak Week
Congratulations to Amicans for a fine "Hello Day."
In the past it had been customary to have a Hello Week
with the Amican lassies hauling violators of the hello rules
before a kangaroo court. On a tradition-hungry campus it
was a worthwhile, friendly custom.
Saying hello was never known to cripple anyone or
cause any deep-seated hard feelings. In fact, it did promote
the good feeling of friendliness and belonging.
True, this was in the past. Times have changed. With
200 students, no one's vocal chords suffered unduly. Saying
heilo to every one of 1200 students you meet, every day for PIONEER LOG Friday, October 22, 1948

for either plan A or B which are:
Plan A. Eleven o'clock classes
on Monday, Wednesday and Fri

half of them continue to meet at
11 as scheduled and half at 12.
Those meeting at 12 would have
their lunch period from 11 to 12
and those meeting at 11 would
have their lunch periOd from 12
to 1. This would shift all after
noon classes, including Tuesday
and Thursday, one half hour

Plan B. Half of . the classes
scheduled at 12:30 would meet
at 12 and the other half remain
as scheduled at 12:30. Those
meeting at 12 wou).d have their
lunch period from 1 to 1 :30.

Veterans attending college full
time under the G.I. bill may work
part time and still draw full
subsistence pay from the veter
ans administration.
The only income limitation ap
plies to the amount of subsistence
paid within combined ceilings, al
though actually a veteran may
earn as much as he wishes . on
outside j~bs, though it may re
duce his VA checks.
• Ceilings for combined earnings
and subsistence are $210 monthly
for veterans without dependents,
$270 with two or more depend
ents. If a veteran's earned in
come plus subsistence allowance
exceeds the monthly ceiling, the
VA must reduce its payments to
keep within the limits.
Full subsistence amounts to
$75 a month to a single student,
$105 if one dependent and $120
to a veteran with two or more
dependents .

Political Policy
In view of the recent disagreements over the banning of
' Henry Wallace from speaking engagements on the campus,
we wonder why there are not other means available for the
exercise of the rights of full expression.
This college's policy does not favor the appearance of
any individual candidate who represents any partisan fac
tion. A way to have all sides of different issues presented
and still maintain neutrality would be to schedule debates
between candidates, party leaders or other influential indi
viduals. For instance, how could there be a better means of
exerdsing the American heritage of free speech than the
coming discussion forum this Monday between the different
state political leaders.
We students can in this way attempt to discern the good
from the erroneous. After all, in such a controversial field as
politics it is very necessary to hear all pros and cons.
Weak Week
Congratulations to Amicans for a fine "Hello Day."
In the past it had been customary to have a Hello Week
with the Amican lassies hauling violators of the hello rules
before a kangaroo court. On a tradition-hungry campus it
was a worthwhile, friendly custom.
Saying hello was never known to cripple anyone or
cause any deep-seated hard feelings. In fact, it did promote
the good feeling of friendliness and belonging.
True, this was in the past. Times have changed. With
200 students, no one's vocal chords suffered unduly. Saying
heilo to every one of 1200 students you meet, every day for PIONEER LOG Friday, October 22, 1948
