March 1944 Page nine FANS SHOULD TO GO COLLEGE - (con't) ful lineman. But that training gave him a tremendous advantage over his associates, when it came to qualifying for promotion. If he failed to use that advantage, it was his fault. There are many well-educated men who never went to college. There are many uneducated ones who did go. The thing to keep in mind is that, with the advantage of college training, the first-named would probably have advanced both faster and farther. As for the one who failed; well, the colleges aren't perfect, as I said before; if the so-called student was exposed, but turned out to be immune, the college had done its best. Probably less than half our total population would be benefited by going to college. But practically all fand would gain, because fans as a group are imaginative, alert and intelligent. College training would furnish them many useful tools; tools which they would otherwise acquire, if at all, only in a slow, haphazard fashion. Think it over, you fans just recently out of high school, and those who are now in the armed services or working in war plants. After the war, Go to College. THE END EDITOR CORNER still a bit more of amateur publications and so if you have any you want to get ride of, drop me a line. Am especially anxious to get hold of the issues of Vol. 1, 2, and 5 of the FANTASY AMATEUR to complete my files of it. And so until the next issue comes forth to break the peace and quiet of PAPA, adieu.
