I have simply tried to do what seemed best each day as each day came" Lincoln. Iowa Or Becker Field? This is a day of quick decisions. Military judgments are instantaneous; the masses have grown accustomed to immediate readjustments; even Congress as curtailed the utterances of LaFollettelunged orators. Comes now a man bestirred by true patriotism who says: "Iowa's greatest athlete has given the ultimate sacrifice. Let us name our stadium in his honor that his name may be perpetuated in University annals, as befits a hero. We will rechristen Iowa Field as a tribute to the first and possibly the greatest Iowa athlete to fall in The world conflict." The emotional appeal for such a change is powerful. Driven by patriotic appreciation for a magnificent death and moving hastily under the stress of present conditions, officials might be swayed to a ready acceptance of the proposal. Becker was a great soldier, as he was a man and athlete. As such his fame will not perish. No need exists to safeguard his memory. Iowa has and will have other great stars of the gridiron who perhaps may be called to a death as glorious. No field will carry their name to posterity. Although it is splendid to die on the field of battle, it is ever as heroic to live a life of service. For fourteen years on this campus a man gave lavishly and unremittingly his store of judgment and wisdom, and he made Iowa athletics what they are. Fourteen years of trusty service, so unceasing and whole souled as to weaken his physical resistance, should create for Professor A. G. Smith a tribute of value equal that of a brilliant death. But why Smith Field or anything but Iowa Field? By that name is it known and at no time has it been associated with dishonor. It is the logical name. Iowa Field means the University field, not a green on which Iowa College boys may romp or a plot on which Iowa State whips up a second rate football squad. Iowa, the University, will endure when the names of its sons have been obliterated, and Iowa Field will reflect and spread its glory. Paring Potatoes Paring potatoes is and estimable task, but wielding a paring knife involves no larger degree of courage or moral tenacity. In the light of current happenings, bayonet practice would seem a shade more manly. Yet our campus harbors a few that have chosen the endless routine of peeling potatoes to the training of brain and muscle for a righteous war. Some charitable person designated these domestically inclined fellows conscientious objectors, and the misnomer has clung. Time was when the world admired the man who stood foursquare for his convictions in the face of derision and punishment. Of such stuff were martyrs. Just now indignant nations rightly have neither respect nor pity for the man who suffers the excruciation of jeers and mental torture through dogged blindness to fact. An objector nowadays must be conscientious to a right ideal; his objections must be logical. The type of conscientiousness that allows a man to sit in a warm and cozy kitchen, head bowed over a pan of potatoes, while outside in the extremes of weather his countrymen learn to aim instruments of war against an aggressive and rapacious enemy receives more charity from military authorities than it deserves. While a peaceloving citizen fights to gain peace for the world's weak, both individuals and nations, the objector scrapes potatoes and smokes in comfortable conscientiousness. His religion, he says, forbids him more. A man's religion is his attitude toward men, life, God. It is not the creed teaching him that war is an unholy means to an unholy end. A religion involves thought; a creed, credulity. When the objector gets beyond creeds into religion, conscious of what he has heard about France and Belgium, and then becomes conscientious to this religion, the potato pan will be given over to a limited service man and a conscientious fighter will be bayoneting his way up Unter den Linden. Letters From Our Soldiers Somewhere in France. August 20, 1918. Dear Old Bill; Hello Bill. How is everything in the States? Everything is O. K. over here. But I sure do think of you people every once in a while. I wonder how things are running at good old Iowa. Gee, they were good old days there, but a fellow doesn't realize it until he gets over here, living on hard tack and sleeping wherever he can find a place. But we haven't a complaint to make. We can't expect feather beds and a banquet at each meal over here. I wasn't called into service until May 25th, but I have been over here about a month, so you see I made a quick trip. I didn't even get any drill or training in the states but I kept my eyes open and I haven't pulled a boner yet. (I better knock on wood.) I was sent to Ft. Sill and came across with a regular army outfit. This is a swell bunch, mostly West Point officers and real fellows. This regiment didn't have a dentist for two years before two of us joined it in May, so you see there is enough work for ten dentists. The first thing Capt. Paquin and I did was to examine each man. Then for ten days we did nothing but extractions. I did as high as 125 extractions a day. When I was in practice I let the other fellow do the extractions. I lacked the nerve but believe me after the experience here there will be no other fellow when I get back. I surely was lucky in getting to work with Capt. Paquin of St. Louis, he is an associate of Dr. Winter and worked with him a lot. So I get all the benefit of that. You ought to see my office here. At present it is an old broken down barn with cows around me. It sure is some office. But we do the business at that. We are billeted in a town of about 2000 population. They never had a dentist here before so the natives turn out and watch me work. I have been doing extractions for them to; they seem to like it. But last week we noticed that our Novocain supply was getting low so we started to inject sterile water only; since then they seem to keep shy of us. I don't blame them at that. We have been working at dentistry in the afternoon only, as I take a 10 to 15 mile hike every morning with the regiment. We have to stand revelle and retreat and all formations. So a dentist over here catches thunder. We had it soft at Ft. Sill but it's a lot different over here. We received orders this week telling us what to take to the ring line. So by the time you receive this will be up where the fun is. Am anxious to get there. We had quite an air raid the third night we were in France.. We had arrived at a depot in a certain city, to entrain for here. It was after midnight; all of a sudden, they started to let go shrapnel and high explosive bombs. They tried for the depot but missed us about 50 yards on each shot. That was plenty close enough to suit me. It was sure some sight. Since then we have got it a few times but a person's first experience like that, is the one he will always remember. I met Drs. Wright and Lauck at a sea coast camp. They were Delta Sigs. It sure seemed good to see them. They were practicing at rest camps and have it soft. But I wouldn't trade places with them, as they won't ever get up to the front. They seem as "locky" as ever. Well, Bill let me hear from you once in a while. Let me know how Iowa Ames game comes out at least. Will Iowa have a good team this year? If you have any dental magazines extra send me a couple. You don't get them over here. You are allowed to send them. If you can't send them, tell the house in Des Moines to do it. I would give $5.00 for a dental digest. Will see you a year from this Xman. Truly yours, Lt. G. P. Spicer, 78th F. A., A. E. F. The College World Grinnell college has added military drill to girls' athletic work there. Gardening is also a major outdoor sport for the college girls. The vegetables they planted last spring are now ready to harvest. One thousand S.A.T.C. men are quartered in fraternity houses at Indiana university. The University of Missouri has approximately 1,500 university students in its S.A.T.C. unit. A vocational unit of 500 is in training on the campus at Columbia. A chapter of Sigma Delta Chi, the honorary journalistic fraternity, has been granted to Grinnell college. Boys in the University high school of Missouri are taking home economics. A course in army cooking is being offered. Class elections at Ohio State university have been postponed on account the unusual rush at the registrar's office. Eligibility slips cannot be issued until later. Elsa Dethlefs, Alpha Xi Delta, who has been teaching school at Nashua this year is spending the week end in Iowa City. Gladys Abel, Alpha Xi Delta is visiting in Moline this week end. Mary Kinnavey, Alpha Xi Delta, arrived in Iowa City yesterday to attend the funeral of Robert Dunham. A Word of Cheer from President Emeritus Thomas H. Macbride I am asked what are my thoughts on returning to see the University a cantonment; its men in uniform, its halls barracks crowded with tramping soldiers, its courses of study confused. Well, in the first place I rejoice in the loyalty and cordiality with which the universities and colleges of the whole country have put all their resources and equipment at the service of the Republic at this hour of the world's extremist need. In particular I am glad that, thanks to the men of old, Iowa has a university great enough and fine enough to meet this unexampled call. In the second place the situation is not without great compensations, One of these days the war will suddenly cease. Then these young men, now as guests learning but a little of the great institution, will doubtless return by hundreds and hundreds, to crown renewed acquaintance and wider knowledge finally with and affection which men name filial, as of sons. Every man about the campus cannot but feel the inspiration of our patriotic effort. And although courses are disturbed, wise men have never failed to recognize the high educational value of military discipline. It contributes to all serious habits of thought making for intellectual life. B.I. F. F. "With Malice toward All and Charity for None." That Liberty shall not perish from the earth, this column has been drafted, inducted, and barracked, as one place in which full liberties may be taken with all the powers that be, and vengeance wreaked upon even those whose duty it is to guide the weary mind of youth. The quotation that adorns our portals, adopted as it is from the work of our fellow scribbler, B. V. D., expresses with accuracy and precision the creed for which we stand. O noble lads of the S.A.T.C., take heart! One voice has been heard that brings you sympathy and consolation. A sweet young thing at flag raising was heard to object in greatest indignation to "That bossy officer who ordered the boys around." Next time you languish in K. P. be cheered by the thought that there is one who understands. Hints For Freshmen Don't forget to buy a season ticket for Convocation. Don't mistake Dean Rienow for a rookie. Don't think that Mr. Hunt is Woodrow Wilson. Please don't chew gum. Calamities From Compulsory Gym. The h. c. l. Spanish flu. Low grades. Rainy Weather. That tired feeling. No check from home. 'n' Everything. "Of all sad words of tongue or pen The saddest are these 'Be in at ten..." This is a poetic age. The poetry of our day, not to be outdone by Mexicans nor Bolsheviki, lifts its crimson, and forgive it if you can. Cycle Of The Season I. Salt. I lift the shaker And turn it Upside down. I wait I shake. Nothing happens. Dang the damp! II. Pepper. Black grains That bring joy or pain Depending on Where you put them. III. Paprika. O rosy dreams of Europe! O incarnation Of Italy, Hungary, and Spain! How we welcome thee In soup. IV. Spice. Dreams that found America Were all of thee. Did Columbus know That cloves and cinnamon That led him westward Would one day season all to well A Kaiser's sauce? YOU NEED THE IOWAN With love to all the folks, Column Write.

Covering the mouth and [nose?] when coughing or sneezing. 3. Nothing should be placed [in?] the mouth or nose which we [have?] any reason to believe is contaminated with infective material. 4. Keep the body in the [?] fighting trim by eating wholesome food at regular intervals, drinking plenty of water, getting moderate exercise and get plenty of sleep [in?] well ventilated room.
