sity Of California and one Of the
designers, told academieans.
BY using what is known as the
DETECTION theory which considers
that the gigantic cable. the steel
members holding the floor Of the
bridge and the stiffening steel that
makes the bridge rigid, all act as
one elastic structure, the engineers
find that parts of the bridge do not
need to be designed for such large
tensions and compressions as would
be the case under the older theory.
This allows tightening Of the steel
and the saving Of money.
The Golden Gate bridge will be
begun next spring and finished in
1885 if a bond issue to provide the
money for it is authorized in the
November California elections.
1t will have a single span 1900
feet long, exceeding by 100 feet the

York City, which is now being

Listen, World!

Why does the world give a
college grad the razz? Why
does it treat him as IL he still
belonged on a kiddte car?
Bill would like to know. BY
return mail, If possible. For Bill
Is plenty peeved." A few weeks
ago he was the big noise on the
campus. Now, armed with a
sheepskin and all ready to do
his stuff, he isn't even regarded
as q small squeak in the old
home town. He's just Doc
Wilson's kid-home from col
lege. And the best he gets is q
patronizing smile.
So Bill rises to demand:
why do people insist on re-
garding a college graduate as
kind Of Joke? You know as
we'll as I. Miss Robinson. that a
fellow who really qualities in
college has to hustle. I'd like
to see these old fossils do the

in the last four years. And yet

And their attitude toward
athletics is even worse. Every
body raves about a fellow who
hangs up an endurance record
in some jungle or desert, but
the average college athlete goes
Through ten times as much
punishment in the course Of his
training. Yet nobody at home
thinks that amounts to any
thing.
MY folks have been good to
me. They sent me through col
lege and I'm grateful. But I
bet they'd take any day laborer
more seriously than they do
me. And it certainly makes a
fellow feel sore to be treated
like a baby after he's earned
a big place for himself on the
campus
Why does the world treat the
average college grad as a Joke?
Because, son, for all practical
purposes he usually is.
Yes, I know how you grind.
You learn plenty and you take
plenty Of punishment, too. But
there's one all-important thing
you don't learn in college, Bill,
and that's Life. You viii prob
ably deny this. You are sure
that you have the low down on
life, because you can translate
the jokes in Campus Comics
and are hep to all the brawIs.
But that isn't living. That's
just cutting up. And has about
as much relation to real life as
