ALASKA IS S4 YEARS OLD TODAY!

 Baron Edouard de Stoceski, Russian minister to Washington was given the mission sell Alaska to the United States for not less than 50000OO in 1866 but it wasn't until March 30, 1867, that William Seward signed the treaty for the purchase of Alaska for $72OO OO0 after which the articles exchanged with Rus sia and the treaty proclaimed by President Johnson June 20 1867.
 Congress fought against acquiring this land which was thought worthless Representative Price, of Iowa. stated after the purchase Now that have got it and cannot give it away lose it, hope that we will keep it under military rule and get along with as little ex pense as possible"

 Of wounds that marred its face and dried it's

 We've stood between ravages of storms
 And fought the demon fire that gnawed at its parts; We've brushed aside the suffocating to
 Its frozen veins and ease its pounding heart. We've shared it's pleasures and it's woes:
 Now, in it's greatest hour of need, they would dispense With armed support to let it face potential foes,
 And fight alone pathetic in its weak defense. It could with foes, whose ill

BY BILL GIBh
With TIE arrival of our diStin-
guished visitor. TIE President of
(. e United States. we've all begun
to pretty up or yards, polish the
S'raetS and otherwise try to inn
prove the appearance of this Old
Rock.
I've backed '"The President"
from a policial standpoint because
he happens to be tie c..osen leader
of the Democrats-one of the part
les of republican form of govern
ment and the one that most nearly
suits my ideals However, casting
aside politics which are highly
argumentative, if Harry S. Tru.
man were my mex, door neighbor
and a ditchdigger to boot, I'd still
back him.
The man is representative of our
American way of life. He believes
in himself, his family, his country,
and his God. With answering ioya-
lily he has defended each of the
above people or groups against
malicious hes, uncalled for publ
city, and destructive foreign ele-
ments.
| don't claim that our president
is a great man. Time alone will be
tie judge of his actions and give
him fiS proper measure of i'm.
mortality. But | do say most EN-
phatically that without his labor
ious work, his guiding strength
derived through humility, his utter
and complete devotion to these
United States of America-without
these. The present sorrowful condi-
ton of the world, might be even
more lameatable.
Greatness is not something Fiat
is accorded an individual BY the
people of his day Popularity-yes.
Observation-Disclosures. All of
these things can be showered upon
living person. The term Great
however, must be left for future
generations to apply.
For instance, | think that Her
bert Hoover will someday be list
ed among the worlds great hu-
manitarians though certainly today

Formal Sorority Rushing
Begins at MARYLAND u.

Nearly $50 girls at the Uni
versity of Maryland today began
formal soroity rushing by visiting
members and houses of II Greek
letter organizations. The annual
affair will continue for one week.
The need for house preparations
brought some 400 members back
to campus a week earlier than
their classmates. Paint buckets,
mops and lawn mowers were used
daily by each sorority in an effort
to ready the homes for the first
showing today.
Many feared a recent movie
would discourage girls to rush
sororities, but this has not been
the case" Miss Dorothy w. Binns,
assistant dean of women, stated
Rush parties were planned
during the spring and summer
months through skit rehearsals
and revisions will take place up
to the minute before rusheeS are
to be entertained.
Each sorority rushes under rules
of its national council and the
