Journalists Hall Gives Date To Convene Dramatic Club To Give For Opening of ICU, At Longwood Melodrama in Murder, WSSF CampusDrive For Meeting Y' Combines Drive To Aid Students Lucy Page Hall, chairman of the Y' public relations committee, has announced that the annual WSSP drive sponsored by the YWCA will begin Tuesday. December 5, and will last through the following Friday. Lucy added that this year the T will combine with the WSSF drive a campaign for ICU i International Christian University.* The drives are beinr comb ned to avoid asking the student body too often for money. The World Student Service Fund was organized to aid the students and teachers in the war devastated nations all over the world. In the past the fund has helped these students and teachers accomplish a great deal. It has helped them "get back on their feet." They have done much for themselves by printing their o-n texts, build'ng their own dormitories, and meeting their own needs as much as they could However, there are things which they cannot create with their own hands—things such as n.edic DM, books containing the knowledge from which they were cut off for so long, and food and vitamins that will help them fight tuberculosis. The WSSF seeks to supply these necessities The WSSF appeal for funds is trade only to prep-school, college, and univers ty students and professors, and the entire program depends upon their contribution* which are its only source of income. WSSF finds together with funds contributed by students of 18 other nat ons are administere-* l>v World Student Relief which has its headquarters in Oeneva. Switzerland.

THE ROTUNDA. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1951
Paye 2
Hello, Joe
Spunk and Spirit The class and school spirit exhibited throughout the Circus practices and performances was wonderful. The turnout at the concert Thursday night was jrood. so all is not bad. But each one of US, with a little thought, ceii realize that there is room for improvement.
"School Spirit" Is an old subject; but it is one which a lot of Lonjrwood gtfrla serin lu think lias not bet n <>\ or-etnphasized
recently. At least the results have pointed in thai direction. There is something lackin;'. Son f the old pep and vigor is gone, and in its place is talk -many words about how little time there is to do things these days. Now. it goes without saying that the average Longwood student is overworked. Mo i college students are. Hut there are still the twenty-four hours in each day that there were just a few years ago. And there is not the school spirit that there was a lev. years ago, or such is the opinion that came out of a discussion among some of the busiest girls in school in a senior's bedroom late one night last week. What's (VTOng? Where ill the world is everyone in the afternoon when clas-. hockey game are played? The freshmen are to be Commended for their tUrn-OUl and support (riven to their team, hut any observer would notice lack in numbers of people, thus, in spirit. It is more noticeable this year than ever before, according to the people who know. If nearly fifty girls can play, couldn't at least fifty of us go out and show them that we appreciate them. Or maybe we don't appreciate them.
The usual spirit which is shown through serenades has not had much show this year. Can't we spend just a little more time letting other people know how much we think of them? One of the main things that LongWOOd has always been noted for is her friendliness. 1 et's not get in such a rush thai we don't : ave time to recognize people ;n the halls and speak to them. This was not meant to be a sermon. However, it is a :■ ibject on which each of us could well afford tn preach a sermon every day, and it would probably do the most good if preached to ourselves. This is a plea—a plea for a return to the old spirit of Longwood — that spirit which has the whole school turn out for 'oukey }rames. which sees each one of us smiling « little more in spite of the burdens of each day, and which has a little less talk about how we're too busy to do anything. .Mid-semester .with all of its tests and pipers has passed. Let's make a new start!
In Regards
World Wise It has been said. "No man is an island unto himself." When we stop to think, we all realize the profound truth of this thought provoking observation. Every individual is influenced directly or indirectly b\ the actions the lives of other individuals, and no man can live completely apart from this Influence.

latest is the tiring of Assistant Attorneydivision, Caudle. He has been charged with engaging In "outside activities which the President feels are incompatible with the duties of his office." This, however, is only a drop in the bucket. The Investigation was started quietly last June—chiefly for a quiet look at ad* ministration of the internal revenue laws. The subcommittee quickly discovered, however, it had something bigger on its hands. one scandal after another rocked the Bureau of Internal Revenue. Six collectors of internal revenue were among those who got out of the service or were let out. Two of them later were indicted on charge of bribery, tax shakedow us and other misconduct. Out of this Investigation have emerged some extraordinary findings. The subcommittee has uncovered instances of agents enjoying extended winter vacations with their families, automobiles and multiple l.ank accounts—while earning around $4,500 to $6.50(1 a year! Asked where they got the money, some agents said they had "sure thing" systems for I or •■ race betting. One reported luck betting the ••daily double" at Helm,,nt Park—OH ■ horse that was not running on the day in question.

When we do stop to think, we all realize that this is true. Wt. LongWOOd students in all the rush of meetings, ami tests, and classes, and all that goes with college life often lose touch with "'the outside world." It is hard to find time to read past the funnies and society page—to listen to news broadcasts instead of music programs. It i-^ a great temptation to go on our merrj waj forgetting or overlooking the world events that occur day after day.
