Congratulations
I
^ O M E journalists are of the opinion that such a common subject o f conversation as football is hardly deservinfj of editorial comment. We, however, feel that the results
accomplished this year should be mentioned in a more inclusive revieiv than woidd ordinarily be used in the treatment of educational or cultural topics. W ith an inexperienced aggregation of enthtisiastic football candidates to ivork ivith Coach Halas realized the huge task before him i f he wished to continue the record fo r good gridiron teams that he had attained in jmst years.
W ith two fine pairs o f veteran ends and several experienced backfield men, Halas built up an eleven that secured a record which even the greatest optim ist did not expect. DrexeVs famous 1934 ''Iron Men** will become immortp.l- Athletic Annals. A
■{’0 ' ^i^ ila^e^T on this score, but it is foranother reason that they should he remembered everlastingly by all Drexel men and ivomen. When eleven men find out at the beginning o f a year that they are pretty sure of their positions, there is a tendency for them to suffer a relaxation in their aggressive play. That this did not happen to the Dragon “Iron M en’* is significant. Such a condition denotes fight and regard fo r the coach. To offer this year’s team congratulations ivould be trite; rather let us say to each and every player: “You are a man*s mmi.**
We cannot commend Coach Halas and his aides too highly. The handicaps and obstacles which they overcame in an effort to produce a winning team might have exhausted many men. Pre-season forecasters predicted that the Dragons would have a disastrous season. This prophecy has been disproved by coaches and players alike and has brought out more forcibly one more quality which Coach Halas has; namely, the ability of developing a football player from practically inexperienced m a te n a l In conclusion, the T r i a n g l e offers to Coach Halas, his aides, his “Iron Men**, and his reserves, its sincere congratulations and extends the hope that they prosper as ivell nex t year as they did in 1934.

W e’ve heard the s tories about the profs who don’t read themes, but here’s one which ought to stoji you. A Brooklyn f reshm an wrote t h e ' f o l l o w ing at the end of a them e: “ If y„u get this fa r , I 'll Imy you an ice cri'am cone." The ]irofessor re tu rned the paper with the w r i t ten comm ent: “ O. K., but I l ike sundaes b e t t e r . ”
Smoking Facilitiesmore o f our co-eds are finding pleasure and
I r J , indulging in an occasional cigarette, so that it is not unusual to see the girls direct their course
to the nearest drug store, restaurant, tap-room, or what have you, during m any o f their free hours.
Were one to stop at these places o f refreshment, especially during lunch hour, one ivould be more than a little surprised to see u large majority o f Drexel women enjoying a cigarette w ith meaU.
We a, tempted to make the observation that most o f the parents o f these girls would fa r rather see their daughters smoking in their lounge at school or some suitable spot, rather than in some of the popular, but not too refined, spots to be fouyid a feiv doors fro m our college.
I t ivoiild be no more than fitting for the proper persons to look into this matter at once, since we are of the opinion that it ivould be fa r better fo r the girls to have a proper place to smoke rather than to be forced to travel a block or so every time they wanted a cigarette.
Hot Water
sIX years ago, a fter a great deal o f effort, Drexel finally opeyied Curtis Hall, a m odem engineering building in all respects. The close observer can find nothiyig which has
not been modernized to the n th degree. Even the drinking fountains proclaim the farsightedness of the engineers who designed them. Noticiyig that the average age of college youth IS decreasing, these thoughtful engineers foresaw the day when Drexel would be filled with students of the Hoy Scout age, and placed the fountains at a corresponding distance from the floor A n average college youth of today must bend at the knees, hips and neck m order to moisten his Ups— and then another sur- Vrise! a tribute to their ingenuity, the water trickling out is hot! I f the student of the fu ture wishes to sleep in class he need only bring his Ovaltine, for an inexhaustible supply of steaming hot water is available. Coffee nr tea m ight appeal more to the student about to enter an exam.
A re Drexel students this far advanced in civilization? The ansiver is no! They ivant their water void— ice cold. Are they to be blamed? "

Th is y ea r Coach TTalas was faced w ith a difficult s i t u a t ion in t h a t the whole line f rom las t season was gone, f rom tac k le to tack le . H e found t h a t he h a d six good ends on his hands , so he decided to convert “ Boo-Boo” in to a tack le . Til is was no new posi t ion fo r Hoff, who had p layed a t t ack le on his high school team. H ow ever , th e process of lea rn in g all over aga in the n a tu r e of his new posi t ion m ig h t have affected his p lay ing , b u t in looking over hia record th is y e a r i t seems t h a t Hoff flashed th e same b r i l l i a n t b r a n d of foo tba l l regard less of th e sAvitch. Since he was one of th e few v e te ra n s on the line th is year , he took i t upon h im self to u rge his t e a m m a tes on and encourag ing them w hen th in g s d id not seem to go r igh t . H e Avas a source o f in sp i ra t ion to all the newcomers th is year .

—Emily Dickinson.E m ily Dickinson is a well known
an d much discussed A m erican poetess of th e 19th c en tu ry ; Robinson Jeffers is l i t t le know n b u t w o r th y of more notice and one of our most m odern poets.
F o r y e ars there has su rrounded E m ily D ickinson a cloud of m y s te ry and gossip. W ho was th e phan to m lover fo r whom she becam e a recluse? The l ib ra ry has recen t ly ad d ed two b io g raph ies of Emily Dickinson, one by Joseph ine Po l l i t t , “ Emily Dickinsoti, the hum an back g ro u n d of he r p o e t ry ”, and the o ther by Genevieve T ag g a rd , “ The l ife and mind of E m ily D ick in son.” B o th books p re sen t a lover— the first suggests M a jo r H u n t , th e first h u sb a n d of Helen H u n t Jackson , th e second book recommends Rev. G^or^e Gould. Y e t c r it ics feel t h a t while Miss T ag g a r d ’s is so f a r th e bes t w o rk on E m ily Dickinson, and even though she p re sen ts a signed af f idav i t concern ing G. Gould, th e re a re s ti ll weaknesses in he r proof. Miss P o l l i t t ’s is a serious m inded s tudy , f re e f rom se n t im e n ta l i ty , b e n e fited r a th e r t h a n h am p ered b y th e lack of q uo ta t ions f rom th e much e d i te d le t t e r s and poems. Miss P o l l i t t s t resses th e influence of P u r i t a n i c New E n g lan d , b u t Miss T ag g a rd goes fu r th e r , a n d fo r the first t im e g ives sufficient p rom inence to E d w a r d D ic k inson, th e f a th e r , whose d om ina t ion is com parab le to t h a t of a “ qu ie t t y r a n t ”. Miss T a g g a r d ’s w ork is more convinc ing and she, a poet herse lf , revea ls u n d e rs tan d in g ly the t ru e E m ily Dickinson, and her philosophy— so f a r as t h a t is possible.
