lecrdershipJCourse Needs Leadership
Plans were announced winter term for a no-credit
“student government, tire do's and dont's of leadership,
simple regulations” concerning student leaders.
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 .

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.
