found solely in modern luxuries and conveniences and that the bore dom which results from the super materialistic philosophy can only be cured by the development of cul ture which is based on history of both literature and deeds dr crum stated analyzes education the opening portion of the lec ture was devoted to an analysis of that part of education which should derive a large portion of its sub ject matter from the past there is much valuable material for study in the history and literature of the past which is often neglected as a subject of education dr crum said he added that many students come to college only to obtain a degree and entirely neglect the great opportunities which the col lege or university offers to those who choose to take them dr crum used soviet as an ex ample of the results of extreme ma terialism he said russia is mak ing production the chief object in the life of her citizens and these conditions although they may re sult in a temporary economic im provement will ultimately fail for they will destroy the individual he termed the soviet system mechanocracy and said that even the children's literature consisted solely of accounts of methods of production radio has potentialities radio has great educational po tentialities dr crum said but these possibilities are usually aban doned in favor of jazz and adver tising he used the professions of law and architecture and the study of language to prove that we cannot abandon the past the popalarity of museums and the painstaking re construction oi ancient works of art prove our love of the past we cannot turn our backs upon the past because man is made up of the past and we cannot change history literature is a very valu able source of human knowledge for a bit of verse can convey a pic ture

enough to gain a 6:09 time advantage peery gave one of the smartest exhibitions of the eve ning martin throws england another spectacular match was that between george martin big six champion of lowa state and orville england southwestern teachers sophomore for almost two-thirds of the bout england had all the better of the going but martin's strength together with the desire of the lehigh rooters
