DO u. OF D. STUDENTS
CHEAT? PREP0STEROUS
OFFICIAL SAYS

Cheating on final examinations Is
Ia thriving racket at Delaware Col
lege, the University of Delaware Re-
view, the undergraduate newspaper,
disclOses in its current issue IN an
editorial entitled Faculty It's Your
Joblp
The only effect that the abolition
of the honor system has had the
students newspaper alleges, is to
make dishonesty more secretiye.
''The charges are utterly pre-
pOsterous,n an Official Of the univer-
sity said, though he declined to have
his name mentioned with the quota
tions.
This official also said that the
faculty is supposed to take every
precautiOn to prevent cheating. al
though students are not put into
alright cells by themselves during
examinations.
The Undergraduate editorial is adj |
dressed particularly to the faculty. |
to those who know and those who |
don't know
We thought" the editorial con-
tinued, that when the honor system |
was abolished two years ago, and 4
the control of conducting examina-
tons was placed in your hands that
would be minimized. The
only effect this change has had is
10 make the dishonesty more secre-
Iiye-that is the students don't
boast about it the way they used to.
If you of the faculty can't cope
With the situation. who can? You
Ire supposed to be proctOrs. Why
iOnt you act as such? You openly
invite cheating by reading news
'apers or correcting blue-bOOks'
Turing examinations. Do you have
uch warped conception Of human
lature that you think everybody is
Ionest?
'YOu should know from your years
( experience that in almost every
roup there are few dishonest in {
ividIals. You are permitting these I
ew rotten apples to spoil the whole
asket of apples. Students who are
in every other respect J
re cheating on examinations to up- a
old their averages, because the {
-Ork OF the rotten apples makes a
onest work look inferior 4
Can it be that you don't know
this dishonesty in examination S
,Oms? Can it be that you don't g
now that for years copies Of fl
have been bought and L
I'D on the campus previous 10 the 81
~ Of the examinations? H
Its high time that somebody put q
e clamps on these demoralizing Fl,
'actices. Gentlemen of the faculty, NJ
is your job. Why don't you do it" m

NEW WAYS WITH
SWEET POTATOES
By Miss Pearl Mcdonald. Extension
Nutritionist, University of
Delaware

By Miss Pearl Mcdonald. Extension
Nutritionist, University of
Delaware
People in tine sweet potato states
know many delicious ways of fixing
Sweets" They like them particulars
ly with cured meats-ham, bacon,
salt pork, cOrned beef. They have
found that in spite of its own sweet
flavor, the sweet potato tastes even
better when other sweet materials
are added, brown sugar, sirup, rails
ins, or marshmelloWs. The ingeni-
ous cook uses a cunning hand in
harmonizing 1ayors with sweet no.
tatoes and seldom uses a precise
recipe.
Of course, most housewives have
baked. boiled, mashed, or candied
sweet potatoes. But they can be
scallOped with other materials. For
this, boiled sweets are peeled and
sliced, then put into a baking dish
with alternate layers of sliced ap-
pies, crushed pineapple, or raisins. |
They may have grated orange peel
sprinkled over them, or nuts may |
be scattered through the dish to add |
crunchy texture. Another popular |
touch is to place marshmalloWs ov-
er the top a few minutes before !
serving time, and return to the oven !
long enough to brown slightly.
When thick slices Of boiled, peel
ed sweet potatoes are fried In a
small amount of fat, they must be
watched carefully and the fat kept
only moderately hot, for the sugar
in the potatoes causes them 10 burn
easily
Another good dish is sweet potato
puff, made by blending with mashed
sweet potatoes one or two eggs, q
little butter and hot milk and sea-
5Oning, then baking in moderate
wen. Or this mixture may be
shaped into balls. sometimes with
! marshmallOw in the center, and !
DrOwn in the oven.
The deep yellow color of the !,
weet potato is an Indication Of It's
alue as a source Of vitamin A. Vita
min 3 and G. which are essential to Ii
formal growth, are also present In 4
he sweet potato as are sufficient 4
uppiies Of mineral matter and
70 make It an important Il
bod for children In fact, sweet po-
itoes have a higher food value than 4
0 Irish potatoes The higher per- c
entage of sugar in the sweet pota-
yes gives them their characteristic Il
geet flavor and adds to their value
! a building food. There arc moist Of
nd dry varieties Of sweets but both d
az be prepared IN the same ways
he red or moist varieties are often ls
correctly called yams m

An hour ago, we said goodnight.
You said / was divine;
~ q lovely little evening gown,
With accessories so fine.
You rayed about my golden curls;
My lips; my up-turned nose;
Ny soft white hands with finger
tips
Like petals Of a rose.
And, now stand before the glass
My gown is tiannelette;
Upon my head cap IS worn,
To keep those curls all set.
Cold cream is just smeared on my
face;
My hand wear gloves, so queer.
If you could see me when l sleep
You would drop dead, I fear.
