What We Expect Our College To Be * * * * Construction of the Curriculum (An Editorial) The nature of the courses offered for study is the foundation of our ideal College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences. A carefully planned curriculum is the foundation upon which an ideal structure grows. And the curriculum is the first place where unintellectual elements may creep in, or where intellectual ones may be founded. Once there, either will reproduce its kind and flourish. Because of the influence that the college curriculum will have on the entire atmosphere of the campus, for good or bad, it is important that curriculum aims be clearly stated, “The First Mrs. Fraser.” St John and> once stated, strictly held to. We have stated earlier in this series that the aim of the college is to train the intellect —“to develop the intellectual competence of the student.” The plan of the curriculum may contribute to this end in the following ways: By presenting only courses of intellectual content, thus eliminating training in minor skills. By combining courses in such a way as to present in each case a course with sufficient content really to challenge the average student’s mind. , By constructing lower division courses so as to provide the student with a wide cultural background; that is, to provide him with an accurate, comprehensive, and usable knowledge of the nature and history'of man’s intellectual accomplishment. This means that the under division student will give his attentions EXCLUSIVELY to the history of human growth, from the dawn of recorded thought to the present time; he will thus be furnished with a critical apparatus that the Pi Kappa Delta tournament, ^ich will end tomorrow. Royston honors in the Bakersfield ley last year, being outstand-l in debate and extempore. LOJANS ENTER TOURNEY Capt.

Troops Repel Paris Rioters Leftists Protest Overthrow of Blum Popular Front Government; Machine Gun Cordon Thrown Around Senate PARIS, April 7—(UP)—The menace of machine guns on the roof of the senate building, manned by mobile guard stormtroops, tonight repulsed several thousand rioting leftists shouting “Hang Caillaux” and protesting against the overthrow of Premier Leon Blum’s popular front government. -* Heads of angry Communists and Socialists Were bashed, knives flashed and ambulances clanged through the melee with injured before the demonstrators, estimated at between 3,000 and 4,000 were driven from in front of the building by the sight of machine guns, rifles, and bayonets of 5.000 police and mobile guards. SENATE PROTECTED The machine-gun cordon was ordered around the senate by 3enate President Jules Jeanneney, under his emergency constitutional powers after the Leftists swarmed about shouting “hang Caillaux!” During mid-afternoon, three hours before the rioting broke out, Caillaux, veteran “cabinet buster” and chairman of the senate finance committee had delivered a death blow in committee to the Blum Leftist government. The finance group rejected Blum’s drastic financial program by a vote of 25 to 6. BLUM TO MEET FOES Blum, determined to go down fighting, will meet his foes on the floor of the senate at 4 p.m. Friday. His program, including demands for dictatorial powers, is sure to be defeated and his entire cabinet is expected to resign before nightfall. He probably will be succeeded as premier by War Minister Edouard Daladier. whose last term as premier in 1934 was vividly recalled by tonight’s rioting along the left bank of the Seine. DRIVEN FROM OFFICE Daladier, defense minister in the last three popular front cabinets, was driven from office after the bloody riots in the Place de la Concorde on February 6, 1934. because he ordered mobile guards to fire with machine guns on War veterans and others parading in protest after the Stavlsky financial scandal. After the February riots Dala-con tinned on page five Students Plan AnnualDinner Legislative Council Names 17 To Arrange Commerce Banquet Seventeen College of Commerce students were named by the commerce legislative council yesterday to formulate plans for the annual banquet to be held by the college on May 6 in the Foyer of Town and Gown.
