The Student Vagabond

A week ago today the average undergraduate turned off his alarm-clock with the pleasant reaction that that particular Monday was a pleasant interlude in the general scheme of things. And turn about is fair play. So the Vagabond beckons his first finger of the year in the direction of his adherents and, akin to the Pied Piper, leads them up the marble stairs of Widener into Room U. where at high noon, an hour will be devoted to several remarks on Christopher Columbus, the "a priori" of last week's holiday. The lecture given by Professor Usher under the title of Economics 10a will throw a new floodlight on the voyageur. Those who know of him only via primary-schools and ballads will be regaled with the economic theories anent his pursuit of the mythical land now known as Americana.

Casting a wary eye about for tomorrow's entertainment the Vagabond has a stimulating lecture in the offering of Professor Babbitt in Comparative Literature 11 at Sever 11. also at 12 o'clock. While the subject matter is entitled the "Cult of the Child", it shouldn't be discouraging Everyone who knows but a mere bagatelle about the Harvard Humanist is quite sure that William Wordsworth, nature-commuter extraordinary, will, in the parlance of Chicago, "go for a long ride." And the Vagabond wants to be in the back seat.
