That's fine, but where is it? The course is not registered, am Mr. Littman of the psychology department, who was going to teach it, has stated that it has apparently been discontinued. Parliamentary procedure sag' in nearly every department *»t student government on the campus, iroin the large ^ t smallest. A course, or a series of lectures concerning this topic would benefit everyone, not just student leader But that's only one phase of the proposed course; it was to teach the do’s and dont's of leadership. But are do s and doni s in government only for 'leaders?” Does this mean procedures of organization, or how to control people? Which brings us to ultimates. Who is a leader, and who isn't? And can you teach a student to be one? Perhaps a better alternative i> to omit discus mil oi U .i ■ r ship, always an ambiguous and overworked term, an*', concen trate on teaching students about the working- "t student g • eminent, functions of committees, methods of action, as! > on. Chit of this background, leaders w ill undoubted!;• emerge If something happened to the course this spring, why not begin plans for a similar course next fall in a modified form. Interested students would at least be informed of what goes on in student government, and what makes good student govern ment. We aren't advocating a machine for the mass pr * Ki n • t would-be leaders, only information and instruction concerning those things for which students are resjionsibleon the canij . —J- P Give Us the Average man When H. Frederick Peter* talked about rearmament of Ger many Thursday in the Student Union, be mentioned the aver age man over there. He said the average man in Germany is m a mood ui depression, apathy, and weariness. When is a man average ? II. Frederick Peter- surely i*n t the first speaker <*r w riter to talk iu terms of this great average. Nor do we blame him for doing so. But of whom do we talk when we tab a man average? Are you an average man? pose this question to yourself ami tiic first answer you II probably give is, “what's averageT I- it those men with the middle intelligence quotients ? I- it tho-c men with t: <• in ■ !!c income status? Is it those men with a certain type of bousing or living conditions.' Or, indeed, is there such a creature a an average man ? We think not. Be he here in the United State Be he in Germany or Rus sia or South Africa ... he who i- the average man d << not > - ist. And he will not exist until the statistician or re-cart her can corral all which is thought and clone by all the people all the time and u-e a slide rule and table to find that average. Spring, Spring — What a Wonderful Thing “Gimmeahundredwordeditonspring!" Roughly translated, that means that we were -uppo-ed to go out Sunday and pick daisic- in order to gather material on the advent of spring and picnic weather and so forth. And then we were supposed to return to the smoke-filled dungeon of the editorial room and pound a hundred or so words on how to pick daisies. This was fine. All newspapers ought to have an editorial on spring when spring comes. However when we went out to pick daisies and so forth, out in the sunshine, where the coeds run around in pedal pushers or shorts, we decided not to return to the dungeon. So we didn’t. Cobwebs collected on our typewriters, the edi torial didn’t get written and it’s a wonder we didn't get fired. Spring fever they call it.—K.M. THE DAILY 'JT'...
