Only\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2 few atudenta appeared at the semi-annual\nmeeting of the Sooiety, and the meeting had\nto be cancelled.\nThe meeting ia an important one and\nahould have been attended by a good majority\nof the students. It ia the one chance at the\nbeginning of the term for studenta to learn\nwhat the exeoutive ia doing and to express\ntheir approval or disapproval.\nWhy did 'this happen? Must we give as a\nreason Just general apathy, Indifference to the\nprivileges and duties of student government?\nDo the students find figures and reports too\ndull to bother about them at all, or de they\nthink that other students will do the work\nthey themselves should be doing?\nPart of the blame must be plaoed on insufficient notice of the meeting by the Counoil. Ae it was deolded late Monday night to\nhold the meeting, little could be placed in The\nUbyssey to advertise the meeting. Members\nof the Mamooks painted signs and advertised\nthe meeting, but as lt was all on the actual day\nof the meeting, many students knew nothing\nabout it. On the same day, other societies\nwere holding executive and organization meetings, contrary to the rule which cancels all\nclub meetings during the time of an Alma\nMater meeting. This rule should have been\nstrictly enforced by Council.\nThe rest of the blame, however lies with\nthe students who have become so indifferent.\nStudent government, like parliamentary government, is based on the fact that the individuals in the group governed perform certain\ncivil duties in return for certain privileges.\nOn this campus, the students have developed\na fairly high form of student government, having control over practically all student activities.\nThe students, however, are willing to take\nthe privileges without performing the duties.\nWe might as well have no student government\nat all if that is to be the attitude of the students.\nMembers of the Students' Council do a\ngreat deal of work for which they get very\nlittle in return. They have difficult problems\nto meet every day, and in time of war like\nthe present, their problems become more difficult. If they find that the students are totally uninterested in what they are doing, they\nare much less likely to do good work, and no\none can blame them.\nThere is also the danger that should this\nindifference of the students continue to increase, an incompentent Council will be elected. By some foolish act of such a Council,\nevery right and privilege that the students\nhave gained might be lost without hope of recovery.\nIf we are not going to bother at all about\nstudent government, then do away with it.\nBut if we believe in the principle of student\ngovernment and wish to keep the privileges, let\nus support it outwardly and effectively.\nWhen other Alma Mater meetings are\ncalled, let the Council make arangements some\ntime before so that proper notice may be given. Then the Counoil should see that no other\nmeetings are being held on that day, and that\noffenders against the rules are punished. With\nproper publicizing, perhaps the meeting will\nattract enough students to transact the necessary business.\nMore Smoker\nIn an editorial of the October 1 issue of\nthe Ubyssey, mention was made of an objectionable act in the entertainment at the frosh\nsmoker.\nMost of the entertainment was under the\ncharge of Mrs. Georgia McMillan. She\nplaced on the stage two tap dancers, a soprano, and an acrobat, who gave from all accounts an excellent performance. But the objectionable act referred to above was not a part\nof Mrs. McMillan's entertainment at all, and\nwas put on entirely without her knowledge.\nWe are very sorry if the impression \u00E2\u0080\u00A2was\ngiven that any part of Mrs. McMillan's show\nwas open to objection, for nothing of the kind\nwas meant.\n_____ ____\u00C2\u00BB< ^\u00C2\u00BB ^\u00C2\u00BBi ***-*>, mrnnm ****%>u^_\u00C2\u00BBo-_--\u00C2\u00BBo<_--\u00C2\u00BB.-4_--\u00C2\u00BBo-___\u00C2\u00BB<\u00C2\u00BB<-_-_\u00C2\u00BBi\u00C2\u00BB\u00C2\u00ABH\u00C2\u00BBo-i_BB-n<\u00E2\u0096\u00A0__\u00C2\u00BB<|&e\nCAN A.

It's astounding.\nUsually we picture ladies with Bronx or\nBrooklyn accents as young, garish and dumpy,\njust as we picture people who use the mountain dialect as rather old. Well, perhaps you\ndidn't but I did and that is all that's important at the moment. So it was a distinct shock\nto see a little old lady with white hair and a\nkindly, seamed face, turn to her companion,\nand with the voice of an Edlphone, proclaim,\n\"Lls-sun Maybull.\"\nIt is opening day in a Manhattan high\nschool. The students of the last form are assembled in their classes, shamefacedly excited.\nOutwardly, they are as all last-form high school\nstudents, gangling or squat, and slightly fuzzy.\nTheir distinct characteristic does not show for\nawhile.\nThe apeeoh teacher enters, a spare woman\nwith spectacles. As the class buzzes around\nher, she makes her way up and down the aisles.\nEach student in turn is asked to repeat, \"My\nsister Florence is a nurse. She hung her coat\noji a coat-hanger long ago.\" Actually this\nsentence ls the spearhead of the current drive\nagainst the \"en gee click\" and the offenders will\nbetray themselves by saying \"Ion gago.\"\nBut the speech teacher is due for fustra-\ntion; she has oome to the wrong school. The\nstudents have \"en gee clicks\" but that is the\nleast of their speech defects. One after another, they begin \"My sister Florence is a\nnoiss\nAn emergency test faces them.\n\"Say, 'The bird chirps'.\"\n\"De bold cholps.\"\n* * # *\nDr. Ellas Lleberman is becoming as pernicious influence.\nDr. Ellas Lleberman, by dint of his ability,\nhas risen to the post of assistant supervisor of\nhigh schools in charge of junior high schools.\nA native-born New Yorker, he has been polluted by the education that led to his Ph.D.\nand he is wreaking havoc with that basic\nAmerican liberty, freedom of mis-speech. His\ncampaign will take the character out of this\ncity as profoundly as did Mayor LaGuardia's\nrazing of the Sixth Avenue El.\nFor Ellas Lleberman has passed a decree\n\u00E2\u0080\u0094 lilliburlero bullen aia \u00E2\u0080\u0094 that English is to\nbe spoken at. all junior high schools. This is\nlittle short of revolutionary. And the venerable Dr. L. goes even further; English must\nbe spoken not only in English classes but in\nall classes. Figurez-vous! French classes will\nno longer be conducted in an East Side brogue;\nhistory students will strip Al Smith of his\nbrown derby and denounce him as a boor, a\nvulgarian, a defiler of the rhythm of English\nprose.\nThe aim of it ls all is to get the junior high\nschool students to speak a correct and beautiful English at all times, and it is precisely\nthere that Dr. Lleberman's campaign becomes\npernicious. It is all very well for correct\nspeech to be studied academically and then\nforgotten, as are the Pythagorean theorem and\nthe use of the subjunctive in Latin. But we\nmust not forget that the junior high school student of today is the New Yorker of tomorrow,\nand the New Yorker of tomorrow will be the\nweak, insipid thing indeed if Dr. Lleberman's\ncorrect English fifth column gains its ends.\n* * * *\nThe colored boy who shines your shoes is\nmomentarily distracted by a colored girl rushing by.\n\"Mah, mah, mah. They's one beautiful\nchile.\" He drags out each syllable with fondness and relish.\nObviously she hears him for she trips on\nthe steps that lead into the subway.\n\"Naow, doan't yo'-all fall, honey,\" he calls\nafter her, \"or ah'U have to come to yo' reskew.\"\nHe flashes a grin or half a hundred white teeth\nat you. \"Ef ah doan' have three dollar' an'\nfifty cents tomo'w, mah lan'lady, she goln' to\ncome to mah reskew!
