Defense Strength Seen
In Free Enterprise
By Cambridge AsSocia tes.


NEW YORK. Jan. 1.-The first
year in one of the most crucial dec
AIDES in our history draws to close
with the attention of practically all
citizens focused on one objective
national preparedness. Paul G. Hoff-
man, president of Studebaker Corp,
declared at the year end.
I'VE stand united in our agree
ment that defense comes first. 1t is
not business as usual. 1t is, rather,
the unusual business for America
of producing armaments that have
priority over all else
Despite complete unity as to OBJ
tective, there is difference of opin-
ion as to the method which will
most quickly accomplish that goal
There is very real belief on the
part of some Americans that con-
scripted and regimented industry
will prove more efficient than can
Americas established system of free
enterprise. In company with most
business men. have a very positive
belief in the capacity of private
industry 10 DullQ an lmpreSHdple
defense for America.
Il have serious doubts about the
ability of conscripted management
and conscripted labor to do similar
Job. I maintain that, taking either
a long or a short view, it is vital
that enterprise be kept free-that
an attempt to conscript industry will
delay our defense program and bring
ultimate disaster to our economy"

Vivian Leigh 5 Portrayal of S(arIett Marks Zenith
 of Film Career

No matter what else may happen to her during her future career Vivien Leigh will always be re- membered as the girl who won the most controversial role in the his tory of motion pictures-the part of Scarlett O'Hara in David 9. Selznick's Technicolor production of Margaret Mitchell's Gone with the Wind which is having a final showing at the Capitol Thea tre tonight
 Selznick, when he first purchased the film rights to Margaret Mitch els best-seller novel, promised he would search the world for a liv- ing Scarlett, a girl with the green eyes, the 16-inch waist and all the other characteristics of the Georgia belle. In Miss Leigh ne found not only the physical coun- terpart, but a girl whose French and Irish ancestry gave her the same blood strains as the heroine of Miss Mitchell's novel of the Civil War South.
 Bern in India
 Vivien Leigh was born on Mo- vember 5, 1913, in the resort town of Darjeeling, India, which nestles in the mountains opposite the un- conquered peak of Mt. Everest in the Himalayas. Her father, Ernest Richard Hartley, then stock broker of Calcutta, came of French forebears, and her mother, Ger trude Robinson Hartley, was born in Ireland. In the book, Scarlett's mother was of French descent, and her father was of Irish birth.
 When Selznick was searching for Scarlett, Miss Leigh appeared in Hollywood and became last minute candidate She made a lengthy series of tests and at length triumphed over the field.

1t was a sinister kissing sound. 1t
gave me a feeling that was sur
rounded by a thousand sea serpents
angrily blowing air through their
noStrils!
I became alarmed. My boat was
now rocking violently. I saw the
top of the mast whip crafty back
and forth, wildly etching upon the
dark overhead cloud frightened zig
gag lines. l snatched in my line and
quickly ran up sail. I unanchored
and, watching my chance, went about
and began running before the wind
shoreward.
I shall never forget that strange
Kissing sound that rose higher and
higher in pitch. It was nature warn
ing me. That experience taught me
that even on a calm sea, one should
always be on the alert.
The Master emphasized the neec
for continuous caution: "What I say
unto you," He warned, IT say unto
all, Watch!" The Apostle Paul also

in all things"

Old College Rules

College life has certainly changed,
Southwestern university authorities
agreed after studying the catalogues
and bulletins of the school during
the past century.
In 1856 students were required to
sign pledge certifying that they
had delivered to the president all
of their concealed weapons.
In the 1865 students were required
to attend three daily prayer serv-
ices, the first of which was held at
4 a. m. Students who absented
themselves from the early morning
devotional forfeited their breakfasts.
Faculty members generally agree
that one of the best regulations of
those early days was: "All boys
guilty of fighting are required to kiss
in the presence of the president and
entire student body"
