yet to be made its true sense, is just a football game; it is a weekend devoted to the alumni, a time hen the alumni visit their alma mater and the student body is “on ke stage” for them. Fraternities nd sororities are hosts to their individual alumni, which each camus organization welcomes back those who have been included on jts membership roster in the past, Unfortunately eight years does not tend toward large alumni rosters and bearing in mind that most 0f our organizations are of still later origin, the practicality of an extensive homecoming program is doubtful. It is, however, well for us to begin on our smaller scale and thus to develop the tradition which in time it shall become necessary to incorporate in our year’s program. Alumni are, by no means, useless. They are the greatest builders available to an institution of learning, they can be its publicity agent, and, as thé history of other universities would use, they are greatest source of endowments. Therefore, maintain their interest.

An almost unpardonable sin at
any institution of higher learning is the wearing of high school insignia or that of other universities and colleges. This, in no means, entails the wearing of rings or pins but refers specifically to monograms, freshman numerals, and other obvious dress insignia. On our campus there are a few who have offended in this way. We would remind those few that they are now a part of the University of Miami, that their loyalty belongs here, and that if they would wear monograms, then to try their ability at earning those of Miami.
Last week we made brief mention of the conduct of our freshmen at their election meeting. It is evident that their conduct is open to criticism, not only at meetings, but twenty-four hours a day. It is a revelation to us to note that anyone can reach an age bordering on maturity and still have as little sense of values as have a few members of that class. Writing and drawing on the walls of our building is an unpardonable desecration of the principles for which our student body stands. It is a direct reflection on the freshman class and those members of it who have an iota of self respect will track down the guilty ones. Those responsible are no longer welcome as a part of our student body.

Law Delegates
Attend Meet
In Washington]
Claude Barnes and James Ab-ras left Thursday by auto for Washington to attend the nation- j al convention of the Phi Beta j Gamma honorary legal fraternity, | at Georgetown University.	i
Representing the Kappa chapter, which was founded here in Miami in June, 1932, the dele- j gates will invite the organization j to hold their next convention in the Miami Biltmore Hotel. It is believed that the invitation will be accepted, because the Georgetown chapter, and the Washington alumni chapter, both are very strongly backing the Miami chapter.
Phi Beta Gamma has fourteen national chapters. Claude Barnes, Ernie Duhaime, John McLeland, and William Hester are the active members of the Miami chapter, which has also nine pledges.
