...Phillips Brooks House and several worthy charities will suffer because the Service Fund drive has fallen so short," Student Council Treasurer Ray A. Goldberg '48 announced last night, but added, "The fault does not lie in the size of individual contributions, but in the fact that we have failed to reach our goal of 100 percent participation...
...wide leeway in student planned programs actually results in a number of everspecialized, narrow-minded graduates, the fault for such an error does not necessarily lie with distribution formula. It functions only as a shell and is gauged to give each man an important role in his education. While some students may suffer from this responsibility, others can find the experience both maturing and challenging. The alternative, a system calling for more rigid prescription of the curriculum, might prove unsatisfactory and could turn instruction into a production line, the College into a factory. It seems impossible to stimulate 5000 minds...
...does the nose do the smelling? The "smell receptors," patches of specialized cells in the upper nose, lie across air passages from tissues which are normally cooler than they are. Therefore the cells radiate heat waves across the air stream. Beck & Miles theorized that when pure air is passing through the nostrils, the cells give no signal; they are getting rid of their heat at the standard rate. But when an odorous vapor is present in the air stream it absorbs certain wavelengths of the heat which the cells are radiating. The cells can feel the change and the stimulus...
...organization, and its Harvard and Radcliffe representatives, must realize that success does not lie in more meetings. There have been enough regional this and national that and international the other, enough constitutional conventions and enough assemblies, to satisfy even the most gregarious of students.

If NSA is to be successful, it must now proceed to produce the goods. And it can do so only if its representatives realize that the individual campus, and not the occasional intercollegiate...
...last week there was unwonted activity among the rolling hills of Grindstone Island, one of the "Misty Magdalens" which lie athwart the Gulf of St. Lawrence steamer lanes. In one spot the scrubby balsam firs had been cleared and a power shovel scooped deep into the earth. At week's end, under a crisp, blue sky, a couple of dozen Madelinot workmen stood around with mining engineers and newsmen to watch a diamond drill bite into the cocoa-colored rock. At a depth of 49 ft. the drill hit high-grade ore containing about 53% metallic manganese. With...
