gogue will be removed from their
student tax card. Any absence after
that will result in a fine of one

Victims Recover
From Explosion
An explosion occuried March 22,
about 5 pan. in the storeroom of
Husted, The four persons involved
were George Murphy, Professor of
Chemistry, Robert Levy *
Kaar nd John Plaglei
stockroom assistant,
‘The explosion, as well as can be
reconstructed, came as a result of
an attempt to transfer phosphorus
to Water, ‘The sticks of phosphorus
were being stored under xylene.
When exposed to oir, phosphorus
readily ignites, ‘The first transfer
conducted without incident, but
when removing another stick of
phosphorus from a jar, the yolume
of xylene was lowered, thus leaving
the tops of the phosphorus sticks
exposed to the air. When smoke was
detected issuing from this ja
Co2 fire extinguisher was brought
into play. However, the jar explod-
ed about table height, burning the
four people about the hands and
arms.
Dr. Murphy and associates are
recovering nicely and should be re-
leased from the hospital soon

From the Herald
Yale has raised the requirements
for being named to the Dean's List
because tod: students are getting
higher marks. The purpose of the
revised regulations is to preserve
the prestige of the Dean's List
which in the past 10 years ha
grown lo the point where it con-
tains the names of almost half the
undergraduates in Yale University
The Spectrum recently printed the
following bits in its college life se-
ries:
Ambition
1, Freshman—To graduate with
an A average.
Sophemore—To graduate with
a B average.
Junior “To graduate with a C
average
Senior- ‘To graduate.
chers
Freshman—They know every-
thing
Sophomore—They know some-
thing
3. Junior—They don't know any-
thing.
4. Seniors—To err is human
A few collegiate quips and quotes
from the Central Michigan Life:
A coed who was practice teaching
at a junior high school, showed
two films to her class one day. Just
before the second fitm was over, a
student nudged her and. said, “I
thought you would like to wake up
before the lights go on.”

This year we have been faced with many unforeseen
problems and situations. We lost the use of our meeting
place and had to initiate a type of representative govern-
ment; we bought a college camp this year; we have amend-
cd our constitution and formulated a new type of student
government. To do this has required the alert decisions
and actions of capable leaders

In the past years we have made mistakes and we did
this year. People have been elected who were not prepared
for their new responsibilities. They were elected because
of personal reasons.
Next year our officers will face new problems, our
college is continuing to grow and to bring new problems
to the surface. The problems of off-campus teachers los-
ing contact with their college will become a reality with
the new Education Department plan for student teaching
