Stroup EnioysChinese Party

Eileen Stroup was fortunate tobe one of the few American guestsat the biggest Chinese party inhonor of a new-born boy at theBamboo Gardens last Tuesdaynight, November 26.Mr. and Mrs. Louis Tong, proud

parents of dimpled Danny, spent alot of money honoring their son.Eileen exclaims that she stared inawe at the super-deluxe dishesserved ,at the party. Birds' nestsoup, a highly prized favored dish,was served, along with chickenalmon, and pineapple chicken,served side by side on the maincourse .. Eating progressed for twohours, and at 6:30 guests began to"Moila!" (I don't want any more)."This is one party I shall never

forget. Such Chinese delicacy Iwill probably never experienceagain," exclaimed Eileen.

~IGURES RECEIVED·FROM OUESTIOIIIllIRE

From the reports coming fromthe questionnaire in the lastRoundup, some startling reportswere unfolded.Out of the stories that interested

them most, 30 .per cent said theyliked news stories best; 40 per centliked gossip; 20 per cent, sports;and 10 per cent, features.Eighty-three per cent thought

that the Roundup should be pub-lished weekly; 10 per cent thoughtonce in two weeks; 3 per centthought monthly; and 4 per centwanted it daily.What size should the Roundup

be? Seventy-seven per cent want-ed it the same; 17 per cent thoughtit should be larger; and 6 per centindicated smaller.In regards to the gossip in the

paper, 50 per cent believed therewas too much; 23 per cent sug-gested not enough; 23 per cent. in-dicated just right; while 4 per centdidn't care. As to personal gossip,43 per cent thought it was toopersonal; 16 per cent said not per-sonal enough; 16 per cent thoughtit just right; and 25 per cent didn'tcare.A majority of the students didn't

want a new name for the paper.Eighty-three per cent voted againstit, with 17 per cent for it.By the questionnaire, most of

the students seem greatly inter-ested in advertising, usually al-ways reading it.Friday seemed to be the' most

effective day for' the Roundup toappear, although 27 per cent.thought Thursday a better day;7 per cent wanted Wednesday; 7per cent wanted Monday; and 1per cent thought a good day forthe Roundup to appear would beona Sunday.

we going to do with the youth of the nation? We hear tim.e ~d timeagain that each younger generation is going to the dogs, which 1Softenaccompanied with the remark of what will ever become of them. .Youth of today is a problem of paramount importance, but today 18

not the only time that youth has been a problem to this country or ~oany other country for that matter. There was always you~h, there. 1Salways youth, and there always will be youth, and youth w111have 1tsproblems in each succeeding generation. .. .,It has been said that youth ,is a wonderful thmg and that It 18 a

It was an adult who by the very fact that hewanted to return to his youth admits he too made mistakes that hewishes to eradicate, yet he wonders what is going to happen to theyouth of today who make so many, many mistakes. . ..Experience is a great teacher" and it might be sa1d that· 1~.1S the

greatest. People who are our parents are rather inconsistent m som.erespects. In the first place, they see the mistakes of youth, but fallto recognize them as the same mtstakes they themselves made just alittle earlier in the game o~ life. Next ..our parents offer a solution toon~ of our problems or a suggestion to' halt our ~fting. They see UII

put aside their good advice and do as we please, but they do notremember that they too put aside the good advice of their parents.Youth d~s not mean that they know all there is to know. It is just

they react to suggestion and help is the same, and the success andfailure that they made of themselves are the same and will continueto be. the same.Youth must help itself and it will help itself out of necessity. They

will go ahead and bring about the solution to their problem just as his-tory shows us that. every other generation has gone ahead and come to,Some kind of a solution.Why do I say some kind ofa solution? Our world is not perfect.

Therefore our parents must have reached just some ~ind of a solution.Why are we expected to do better?You say that we have advanced and that we should ~erefore be able

to advance in our perfection. That is not so. The things that man hasmade have improved but man himself has remained the same inastagnated position ever since he found out he could fight for what hewanted and gain absolutely nothing. That I might add was an astound-ing discovery.Man fights. Or should I say youth fights because the wise adults tell

US to fight. Still youth is the worst problem or' at least one of theworst we face.

From the Editor's',TypewriterWho is going to be Queen of the Football dance? That seems to be

the talk around the campus just now, but time will tell. Tonight at theannual football dance the Queen will be crowned, and some good-look-ing co-ed will take the place of last year's Queen, Dolly Bates.I wish to thank those who took part in filling out the questionnaire

in the' last Roundup. Those suggestions were greatly appreciated, andwill aid the Roundup in its future success. _Rumor has been going around school that a skating rink may be

started in front of the school. Nothing has been done, however, butwe hope that further plans will continue.Maybe none of us qUite realize the task of the workers in the cloak

room, and get rather irritated and irked when we're in a hurry and along line awaits us, or when we find the wrong lunches, and have toeat someone else's cheese sandwich or chocolate cake. But I think weshould congratulate them on the splendid work and service they aregiving to us, for it is really remarkable to see their work so system-atized and everything in fine shape. We do have many fine conven-iencesGaround the school, but the cloak room seems to be one of themost satisfactory, so congratulations again.Did you students ever think of the attitUde the teachers take upon

the grades received by students? Did you ever think that the teacher.was one bit concern~d about our grades? I know a good many of youthink, that while you were prodded along in high school by the teachers,our faculty doesn't s~em to care Whether you pass or not. They're justpaid to lecture to you, and if you get it or not, it's your hard luck.You should realize ~ow what you're going to college for. Well, thatseems to be an erratic statement. Our faculty is very much concernedabout you, worried about your grades, and are willing to assist you inany way possible.

Modern dancing, an added at-traction for the girls of B.J.C., hasbeen started and is under the di-rection of iMss Whittemore.

It is the combined German andAmerican method teaching thegirls exercise and many bodymovements. Each movement issaid to signify a certain thing.Among the many interested

girds, we find: Margaret Davis,Rita Weber, Frances Clark, Bar-bara Bilderback, Leila Hinton,Mary Ertter, Alice Power, ThelmaFitzgerald, Margery King, RuthNash,Betty Kipping, Jeanette Gil-more, Annette Stewart, Boma Con-die, Marjorie Bailey, Jane School-er, Marjorie Brunger and RubyScofield.Alice Power thinks, "It's awfully

good for exercise. Its ideas aresilly, but it serves for reducing."The classes are now dancing to

music but later on they will do itto percussion instruments, alone.

Let Us Remedy Your ShoeTrOUbles!

Bronc BustersBy THERON ROBERTS

The Broncs wound up a thrillingand action-packed football seasonby electing Tucker Calkins, cap-tain and most valuable player ofthil year's squad. Calkins coveredthe fullback position for theBroncs.

Emily Foster was elected presi-dent of the B.J. C. choir at a re-cent meeting. Jim Thomas wasnamed manager, with Bob Vernon,Warne Schaap and Rosalie Grayacting as representatives for thisyear's work.Among the future plans of the

choir, an annual Christmas con-cert will be the 15th of December.It will take place at St. Michael'sCathedral with the public invited.It is the regular candlelight vesperservice which will take the place ofcaroling this year.Jane Harris, alto, and Harriet

Thomas, soprano, will be two fea-tured soloists.A radio program is also being

arranged before the concert.Plans are being made for the

annual spring tour which will trav-el west to Pendleton. A stay ofthree days is being counted on.As soon as possible they plan to

make an all-school appearance.A party was in session last

Wednesday evening, November 20,in the S.tudent Union room, withRosalie Gray as chairman. A goodtime was said to be had.One of the accomplishments so

far has been the cleaning of robesand fitting, so that every choirmembers claims one as his own.There are approximately 30 girls

and 20 boys enrolled in the choirat the present time.

Many of the Junior Collegewould-be hoopsters are disappoint.eel because there will be no do-nutleague this year. Many of the boyswho would not tum out for theschool squad would turn out forthe do-nut league. However, theJunior College has no place forthilleague to practice.Hoopaters who tum out for the

school team will probably practicein Boise high school's new gym-nuium.COach. flarry Jacoby expects

about 2li former high school let-termen to turn out for basketball-five or six from Boise high andthe rest from surrounding com-munities and towns.

Some of the P. E. boys havetaken advantage of the specialoffer made to the college by theY.M.C.A. and are taking theirclasses there. The boys can comeas often as they like and use allY.M.C.A. equipment. The boyswho are sticking it out at the col-lege are pitching horseshoes forentertainment. More fun on thesecold mornings-isn't it, fellows?
