In 4 minutes 14.7 seconds which is Just
about IS seconds faster time than it
usually takes to win the mile in dual
meet in this section. Lauck Is another

new conference record.

from the meet with the relay title and
possibly a new conference record in that
event. At least, from this distance no
other college in the conference has four
as fast quarter-milers as wear the Black
and Gold Of the Old Line State.
Incidentally, the present relay record
Of q fraction over minutes % seconds
was set by Vanderbilt in q race six years
ago, when it barely beat out Maryland
by q scant half yard in race the Old
Liners led from the start until the last
three yards.
Duke University has one of the big

The proposition is unsound
That money which must be spent and which should

The real purpose behind the of the subcommittee

ONCE OVERS
Gossip

You are not averse to think
ing the worst about the young
man or the young woman who
has wandered even a short way
from the right path.
In fact you are quite likely
to circulate gossip that comes
your way.
Have all your own family
been above reproach, that you
may judge?
So far, your own sons and
daughters have not transgresSed
beyond the limits set by con-
vention.
But, obeying the impulses of
youth, they may yet make a
false step.
Of course you think YOUR
children would not go too far.
Most parents think the same
about their own.
Even those whose children
have taken serious wrong steps
are still confident that their
own wouldn't do wrong Of
themselves and they were as
confident as you are that they
would go straight before they
took the misstep.
