The conference will feature MissFlorence Jackson, formerly of Welles-ley College, who devotes her full timeto the study of women's occupations.Miss Jackson has conducted previoussuccessful programs on the Maine cam-pus and is widely recognized as an au-thority in the field of women's work.Most of the conferences will be de-

Good Old Saint ValentineBy Elaine McManus

It is a matter of studious research andlinguistic conjecture

What the French mean when they sayfaire Ic joli coeur.

Do they mean to court like the bookssay or to make the pretty heart likethe words say?

Well it doesn't make much differencebecause you know the French theyprobably say it with a wink anyway.

And in spite of the ambiguity of theidiom you can see that it applies toSaint Valentine's Day.

Good old February 14th it is the daywhen everyone makes a pretty heartwith a view to courting like thebooks say.

You all know the story about onceupon a time there were a boy anda girl who couldn't seem to get to-gether

And a nice old saint by name of Val-entine wrote some loving littlerimes and sent them to the boy andthe girl from each other.

The boy and the girl lived so happilyever after that the loving little rimesgot to he habit.

And everyone remembers Valentineand is ever grateful to him one daya year which is why we tab it

Saint Valentine's Day. But when saintswent out of style someone had to takethe responsibility of writing the lov-ing rime

And this task was delegated to the maleof the species so that in this year of1945 maidens sit and pine

While waiting anxiously for Cupid'smessage and hoping that they won'tbe forsook.

So boys you can see that it is up toyou to make this Valentine's Dayone for the book.

Public Admin Class Sees MaineGov't In Action—Flabbergasted

By Babs Haines

For Those Who Wrin"Well, my friend the governor

says—" yep, that's just part of the lat-est routine of the Public Admin class.Of course, you know all about thatfamous trip to Augusta last week, butyou may not have heard all the details.Some of us were awfully surprised

when the varied alarm clocks went offthat nice dark Wednesday morning,but we were even more surprised be-fore the day was over. After a nicelong restful train ride, we managed toarrive at what is commonly known inAugusta as the State House. Thefirst big problem of state with whichwe had to contend was really a littlecomplicated for newcomers. Just aswe were about to cros the street toenter the great building, a truckstopped beside us and inquired the wayto the Health and Welfare Depart-ment. Now, what we still want toknow is was all that Pickwick Ale forthe health or the welfare of the state?Once inside we immediately began

to absorb the facts concerning the in-ner workings of the financial end ofstate government. Commissioner ofFinance Mossman and Tax AssessorStevens dragged out charts, pamphlets,booklets, and full-grown guides tostate budgets until we were literallyswamped; and then Dr. Dow pulledthe ace from up his sleeve. Lunchwith the governor, no less. Ah, yes,it was quite an occasion. Gov. Hil-dreth surrounded by earnest youngstudents who could hardly wait to hear

hat he had to say about that retro-active fund the University has comingto it. No one can ever say that wedon't do our duty when we see it.That duty to Alma Mater was obviousenough for even us to see it.... Hav-ing drawn lots to see which two fortu-nate coeds would sit beside His Excel-lency, we stuck by the decision; butthere's no rule against moving yourchairs a little closer together.

After lunch, back to the State Housefor legislative committee hearings. Wewere lucky enough to get in on somereally interesting sessions. Evenheard our own Dr. Dickinson and Pro-fessor Hormell of Bowdoin speakingon the subject of mental clinics for thestate. Having picked up a senator'svery helpful wife in one of the meet-ings, we managed (with her aid) toget permission to go to the top of thedome. It's something I've wanted todo ever since the first time I saw theplace, so we went trooping up aboutfour hundred steps. Some lazy mem-bers of the class stayed below, but N%had the pleasure of hanging over thetop railing to wave at them. Mon'

fun!Wednesday night those who had any

energy left saw how the affairs ofstate are "really run." Met some veryinteresting legislators and even a lob-byist or two.Thursday we finished the financial

departments (or maybe it should read—they finished us). Each of us helda million dollar bond in her hands,

DeWitt Hardy, Rev.Charles E. O'Connor, Dr. FrederickMartin and Rev. David D. Rose. Talltales held the limelight and collegedays were renewed with absent-mindedprofessors and unwitting housemothersbearing the brunt of the humor.

'Well, k's Up To YouSo you think there shouldn't be a third world war?So you wouldn't like for instruments of destruction to come

winging over the top of the world and make Minneapolis and Man-kato into a Cologne and a Coventry?

So you wouldn't like for the babies now crying in their mothers'arms to have to go out some day and kill or be killed?

Well, you can do something about it.Every time you walk into a classroom in geography, history,

sociology, political science, or economics, you can do somethingabout it. Only an America which knows the world, its people, andtheir relations with one another can prevent a third war.

When you walk into a classroom in health or physical education,you can do something about it. Only a healthy America can be astraight-thinking America.

In your science classes, you can learn the physical basis and thephysical relationships of all life. In your English classes, you canlearn to make your mind work better, and can learn the ideals thathumanity needs to know if there is to be peace. In your fine artsclasses, you can learn some of the things that make life meaningfuland beautiful.

And when you walk into a classroom in education, you can learnhow to transmit to another generation the knowledge, the ideals, andthe beauty that you have discovered. You can learn how to helpcreate a straight-thinking America that can make impossible a thirdworld war.

So you think there shouldn't be a third world war? Well, it'sup to you.—The College Reporter, Mankato State Teachers College,Mankato, Minn.

I was pleasedto find the names of two classmates,Eddie Thayer and Joe Chaplin, there.I added my name and APO in hopesthat some other "Mainiac" might dropme a line some time.

MAINE ECHOESIli, Mainiac—Yep, another half term is over. It's

really been very springlike in theseparts lately, and summer is just aroundthe corner. Yes, of course I'm beingoverly optimistic, but let me have myfun. With eighteen more weeks to go,we have to get our fun squeezed insomehow, or vhat would happen toour sense of humor around here?Hmmm. Good question.

The play went over and is now an-other of those pleasant memories. Thekids really did a good job in their fin-ished performance, and it will be along time before some of us stop chuck-ling every once in a while about someof the scenes.

Just to prove that springfever has ahead start, everyone on campus wentValentine-crazy. There were literallyavalanches of Valentines—all kinds,colors, and descriptions—arriving oncampus this week. Comic ones wererunning a close second to those nicemushy ones that "the one and only"always sends. Maybe we should havestaged a contest to see who could pro-duce the craziest of the year.

The next big event of the campus isthe Rhode Island game the 22nd. Ofcourse, we'd like to beat Northeastern,too; but it's Rhode Island that we'reaiming for. You know what I meanwhen I say (and I keep doing it) thatMaine would like just once to win agame from them.

The SCM conference is over again;and the Women's Vocational Confer-ence is on the way. The peace con-ference is due the first week-end inMarch, too; so you see that the oldplace is becoming more than confer-ence-conscious.Now for some more engagements

and marriages. Lish Coffin and JohnnyWebster have reached the diamondstage, and so have Betty Minott andClyde Braley. Bunny Burnett and JoeButler were married the first of January ; and Ruth Goos and George Lotkerare also bride and groom. ParkerFitch Berghouse is back at collegewhile husband Carl is off helping winthe war.Those of the Class of '45 who are

graduating in March are beginning toget serious about the job aspect of lifeand to worry about how they're evergoing to get all that junk packed to getit home. Thank goodness, I've got toJune to figure that one out. Thatshould be time enough to collect acouple hundred packing boxes.

Guess it's time to pick myself up andtrudge to another meeting. Prettysoon I'm going to suggest that they allbe held on Estabrooke's lawn. Mightas well get some fresh air while you'rediscussing!

As ever,Minnie Lou

and then we raced into Senate andHouse sessions for a few minutes tosee how things are run there.We found out how the government

is run before hours, between hours,and after hours; but we never did findout when the hours are. Some day wemust go back and see if we can discov-er when the official work is done. Ofcourse, it might be just the fact thatthe people were all 50 interested in see-ing how five coeds and two college menlooked and acted that they couldn'tconcentrate on anything else when wewere around.

Just so that Mr. Bruce will be en-couraged, we hasten to add that wecouldn't buy any cigarettes in Augusta,either. Wonder if the legislators rolltheir own. The rooms were the usualblue color.

Pensive PeteAfter a five-week fast from the I

cinema (more correctly, the motionpicture; more commonly, the movies),I returned to a rich diet of LaurenBacale and Humphrey Bogart whichwas served last Friday night at theOrono Strand. Living up to my stere-otype of the "Hemingway Woman,"Slim (Bacale) played a smooth gameof feminie ball, and won the love of ahard-to-penetrate tough-guy (Bogart),by slinging all his jibes back at himin the most admirable of blase moods.The picture, To Have and HaveNot, is taken from one of Ernest Hem-ingway's lesser novels. Its plot is fair:a correlation of the broadening con-nections between the leads and the in-creasing involvment of the leads withthe Free French against the Nazis.The setting was the vice-ridden An-tilles island, Martinique, and playedan indefinite role of importance—thenovel might have been set in anyplace feeling Nazi influence. How-ever, with excellent acting and withwhat seemed to be a deliberate build-up of various bi-plays, the film standsas a straw in the wind for Americancompetition with Russian-financedFrench pictures after the war."Hedee—comb wiss me to de Cas-

bah !" reminds everyone of CharlesBoyer, but Together Again provesBoyer's worth. When we are intro-duced to him, sleeping in the cornerof his messy studio, he actually snoreswith a French accent!The line of thought runs toward the

French. They accepted (or fell into)Fascism because they were rotten fromwithin. After going through a warlike this one, are they more able tohold down the responsibilities of ademocracy? They think so, but itseems to me that France like Russiahas already taken up a one party sys-tem. Some people consider that Rus-sia is approaching our form of govern-ment; these same people are prone to

suggest that France will pick up and

turn around in the "good" direction.But Russia is not aiming her futuretoward our form of government! Weare approaching the methodical statismwhich Russia seeks and to whichFrance, to me, seems to be the verybest unorganized example.

Perhaps when, in the future, Ameri-can free Big Business suffers undercompetition from European Statist In-dustry, we will wish we had kept ourfingers in the pie just enough so thatthe novices of the "Old World" couldsee that our skin is white, too.

Reactionary thought on campus hasbeen fussing with the "Marsa" in thecold, cold ground—hazing. Progres-sively speaking, it seems that we shouldlet this custom keep its place in his-tory, along with flagpole sitting, wink-ing at girls, and sideburns. If presenttrends continue, the postwar worldwill demand maturity in studies andsocial life on campus. Veterans re-turning to school have helped, and willhelp, to cut down the amount of child-ishness here, as everywhere—theyknow what school means. It is up tous to keep college a place both forstudying and maintaining the morepleasureful, wholesome adult sociallife.

Deserving of the spotlight is theMaine Dormitory Bowling League. Upto last night the teams had played 3:1games, and the percentages run as fol-lows: Phi Kap, .686; Theta Chi, .571 ;Cabins, .515; Phi Eta. .485; SigmaNu, .400; and S.A.E., .343.

with the masque Maine Bears LoseTo Bowdoin QuintetBy Score Of 64-50

By han Crouse

The University of Maine basketball 1team suffered its second defeat at the

! hands of Bowdoin Saturday night,Bowdoin started scoring early,

finding holes in Maine's zone defense.1 They took an early lead and after buta few minutes of play had a 14 point

i lead. Maine changed its tactics,switching to a pressing man-to-mandefense, and held Bowdoin down to the

I minimum. The score at the half was132-21 in Bowdoin's favor.

Maine played a good brand of ballin the second period with Byers, Mur-ray, and Farnsworth doing the bulkof the scoring. The score seemed tobe swinging in favor of Maine as theymatched the Bowdoin boys basket forbasket in the second period. VerneByers played a very steady game bothon offense and defense. Murray andFarnsworth scored fifteen and eightpoints respectively. In spite of Maine'sgreat comeback, they were unable toovercome the early lead which Bowdoinheld, the final score being 64-50.Red Keith was conspicuous by his

absence. Keith was tall, rangy, anddefinitely a good team man. He wasa definite asset to the zone defense.If Red had been available against Bow-doin, the score would have been muchcloser and no doubt would have meantthe difference between victory anddefeat.Coach Kenyon has a great problem

finding a suitable center to replaceKeith. Buckley, Ellis, and MacDon-ald are being worked in, in an effort

, to solve the problem.

JUST SKATINGI've often wondered what I'd do

when seven days would slink by with-

out any clouds beshowering my crani-

um with its weekly storm. When thechow-hounds would put up only amild woof as the meat, cake, and icecream is rushed off the counter. Whenthe bookstore would be put on limitsand all the fun in going to the intellec-tual center of campus, where Ed meetsco-ed and nit meets wit, would be lost.When the glee club would finally for-sake "Oklahoma" for a stab at "Car-men" (personally I think motormenwould make a much better target, andI doubt whether the little surrey withthe fringe on top could ever go clang,clang, clang.) When I would agreefor once with that fellow who is a littleon the pensive side. When our nobleteachers would awaken us withoutthat wait-till-the-marks-come-out look.When some stuffed shirts would rea-lize that "Rum and Coco-Cola" isn'tsome strange fruit that grows downTrinidad way, but a pretty tasty tunewith one meat ball as an appetizer onthe opposite side of the record. Whenthe belles of Bangor would come upand see me some chime.But there was plenty to ring about

last week. "The Imaginary Invalid"was a four-bong performance, and wehave no doubt about "for whom thegong bongs." C. DeWitt Hardy seemedto be having a wonderful time mopingand hobbling from one pink pill to thenext. Janice Scales did an equallyexcellent job in dusting the furniturearound stage, bringing the imaginingon" back to his senses, fixing a loveaffair. and stealing the show. HaroldParritz made the most of his minuteor two on stage by damning DeWittwith a few dozen deadly symptoms,and strutting away amid a blare ofapplause. Roger Gould, the rejectedsuitor, couldn't quite make the gradewith Dot Boulos, but his toweringtechnique did give that building inPisa a little competition.

Andover Plays Host'Conference - -As Anti-Semitism (Continued from Page Oise)

• •

Discussed, Feb. 9-liThe Seminar on Anti-Semitism,

held at Andover Newton TheologicalSchool, Newton Centre, Massachusetts,was designed to aid a selected groupof student leaders in New Englandcolleges to plumb more deeply one areaof tension: Anti-Semitism. This Sem-inar was sponsored by the StudentChristian Movement and the B'naiB'rith Hillel Foundation of the NewEngland area. Each chapter of theseorganizations was invited to send tworepresentatives to the Seminar. TheUniversity of Maine sent Polly Stu-art, from the MCA, and Milton Popkin,who represented the Hillel organiza-tion.The Seminar this year was held from

February 9-11. Various talks anddemonstrations were given by suchprominent figures as Professor TalcottParsons, Sociology Department, Har-vard University; Mr. Clarence Berger,prominent educational leader; andmany others—both men and women.Clashes between groups in the form

of anti-Semitism, anti-Negroism, anti-Alienism, have been a bar to fulfillmentof democracy and of our religious her-itage. At this Seminar, the causes ofthese barriers were analyzed; andpractical ways of combatting them onthe campus were suggested.

Maine Students AtSCM Conference

"A recipe for a successful marriagecontains five words: the man says, 'Ilove you,' and the woman replies,'You're wonderful !' " Mrs. Irma I.Pixley, specialist in family education,said in a recent lecture at Los AngelesCity College."Seriously, marriage has many prob-

lems and the main ones are income,temperament, and sex. Plan on abudget but don't forget to include recre-ation. If a couple can have fun to-gether there will be fewer quarrels."Common interests and a similar ra-

cial, religious, social, cultural, educa-tional and idealistic background, witha certain amount of emotional matur-ity is the best setting for a perfectmarriage, declared Mrs. Pixley.

Framed!By B'Mills and Geer,

Have you ever stuck your head into255 South Estabrooke and couldn't getit out? Then of course your troublewas Dud Davis, neatly framed andbeaming atop Dee Bell's desk. Hereis the story of Dud and Dee.

The meeting took place in the goodold days when a speech class couldhave forty men to one girl. Althoughthe seating plan was intended to bealphabetical, Dud managed to wiggle

!into the B's beside Dee. Not many!evenings later, there was a phone callI at Colvin for Doris Bell. Some fellowIshe didn't even know was trying tomake a date; the answer was a politenegative. Imagine Dee's agony thenext morning when Mr. Davis in rowB turned blue eyes upon her and whis-pered, "So-o, you didn't want mydate?" But everything turned outbeautifully.

The time is much later. Dud andDee are at a prom, and the dance com-mittee has just discovered that thechaperons have no candy. At onceDud drives to the corner drug, grabsan elaborate box of chocolates, andreturns triumphantly. But woe—whenthe hungry chaperons plunge their fin-gers into the lacy affair to pluck thedainties, the sweetmeats do not budge.Dud, in his excitement, had picked upa display box of false chocolates!

Today Dud is Lt. Dudley Davis ofthe Army Signal Corps, stationed atCamp Crowder, Missouri. And fresh-man Dee is at last a sage senior, presi-dent of Women's Student GovernmentAssociation. Lt. Davis is keeping upthe family tradition by marrying afor Dee and Dud hope to tie the knotSunday, March 25.

Perhaps you've wondered who in-spires Kay Mills to her heights of ac-complishment. You have met him, ifyou've ever looked into the brown eyesof dark, good-looking Lt. Childs whoreigns supreme from a prominent posi-tion on Kay's desk.

Kay first met Jack in math class, ofall places, at their alma mater—M.C.I.For once in Katie's young life Xfailed to equal the unknown. Jackwas a star on the basketball court andthe peppiest jitterbug on the dancefloor. In fact, Childs was the dreamboy of nearly every M.C.I. miss—andhe soon became Kay's. Women'sweird headgear had nothing on Jack'smasterpiece. A felt hat with its brimpinned up in front and a Harvard hair-cut were his trademark.

On their first date, Jack and Kaywent to the movies, but not one withthe low, soothing voice of Boyer. In-stead, Jack's broad shoulders remainedfirm under the hammering blows ofKate as she cheered Hopalong Cassidyin that last riproaring brawl.

Lt. Childs, as flying instructor, isnow teaching future eagles in Colum-bus. Ohio. Last summer, accordingto Kay. his B-17 swoopings over herMonticello rooftop brought not onlyKatie but startled neighbors to thewindows. Jackson was really flyingon the beam.For further photo facts on desk

I guess you're sorry by now if youweren't one of the 150 or more peoplewho witnessed the Faculty-Studentbasketball (er ....hall be say game?!)Well, anyway, it was a sort of a jam-boree in itself, due to the efforts of"Killer" Flynn, "Magnetic" Murphy,"Hop-Along" Cassidy, "Formalde-hyde" Fuller, "Heartless" Hardy,"Texas" Woolrich, and those fortunateenough to be able to escape audiblenick-names: Ward, Witter, Glanville,Stewart (R .K.), McGlaughlin, Rog-ers, Wallace, Rose, Briggs, and Wil-son. High scorers for our illustriousand rugged faculty were Miss MarionRogers with 8 points, Prof. LaurencePelletier with 12 points, and Prof. C.DeWitt ( Imaginary Invalid) Hardywith 6 points.The brave gals who ventured were:

Rawcliffe, McNeil, White, E. Libby,Vaughn, Hammond, Bridges, Baird,Stacy, Kimball, McLaughlin, Went-worth, Stearns, Manson, Chute, Mc-Nealus, Lewis, Titcombe, Eastler,Bullough. Foran, True, Jones, Asker,Spiller, Sarrett, and Ashby. Highscorers were Jo Kimball with 10points, and Helen Stacy with 7 points.The students won the first game by

a score of 36-18, and the faculty werevictors in the second by a score of 14-20. But in my estimation, who won isentirely irrelevant; who played thegames and how they were played arethe points that we'll always remem-ber!

Outstanding incidents in the game:1. Certain faculty members' reoc-

curing but unintentional roughness al-ways followed by a great many, "oh,I'm sorry's." and "you're sure you'realright's"! "Killer" Fytm and LarryPelletier seemed to be rather promi-nent along this line, and after eachspill somebody would always getfouled, or receive a foul shot.

2. Dean Edith Wilson did an excel-lent job of guarding, Fuller had quitea time keeping track of Rusty Chute,and Rusty had quite a time guardingR. K. Stewart in the last half!

3. The best spills of the eveningwere taken by Dean Wilson, Flynn,and Nean Lewis. We need not gointo detail.Tuesday morning came and each of

the faculty insisted that he suffered noill effects whatsoever, but we wonder... could they be getting massages from"Wally" 1,Vallace just for the fun ofit? That's what Wally said happenedfive years ago!

Well, in spite of the beating thateverybody took, we'll call it even...and ready for another game any timeat all.

At the club's last meeting Paul Mc-Gouldrick gave a very interesting dis-cussion on the "Internal Problems ofItaly." His topic included the futureof monarchy, the place of the CatholicChurch in Italian politics, the disposalof the Italian empire, and the boun-dary questions.

By Martha Leeman

The Maine "Hello" has so manyvariations. Have you noticed? Ofcourse the only people who ever getgreeted by "Hello" anyway are profsand other important-looking people.All the rest of us rate is "Hi," with orwithout a smile.

Let's take a walk around campusand see how many different ways wecan get ourselves spoken to. Firstwe meet Molly who gives us the bigsmile and wisecrack reserved for dorm-mates. When roommates meet, they'relikely to start talking, so let's ignorethem for now, shall we?

Here comes a round-shouldered girllooking up at us with the tops of hereyes. She gives a tentative smile,then a weak "Hi?" At the next cor-ner we meet a group intent on thelatest gossip. Being in a friendly mood,we give them a hearty "Hi!" and getabsolutely no reply. NVe've done thesame thing ourselves a good manytimes, so we can't let it bother us toomuch.

Next we meet a reservist who staresfrom a distance, and then looks theother way as we approach. One of hisbuddies, running to catch up with him,cans out "Hi there!" as he meets us.A girl comes along, apparently pre-occupied, who gives us a quick smilethat fades just as soon as she has fin-ished speaking.When we get back to the dorm, we

start talking about what we've seen.It seems we didn't meet all the types,by any means. There's the girl withthe flirty smile "for men only," and theperson who stares from halfway downthe street but won't speak till spokento, the one who doesn't want to speakand pointedly looks the other way whenhe mumbles "Hi," and then.... So itgoes till the dinner bell rings, to sendeveryone dashing.
