Jones Hailed Miss Famine In Food Drive
Travis Jones, Tri Delt, was declared Miss Famine of 1946, Friday, ending the week-long partial fast undertaken by sorority and and dormitory president in competition for the title.
Winning by having held her weight constant to within a 10th of an ounce, Miss Jones told the crowd gathered at the scene of the contest, “I don’t’ know if I’m happy or not. I think I would rather have lost weight.”
In reward for having helped to prove that a diet lacking wheat and fats will not result‘in loss of weight (provided one consumes enough other food) Miss Jones was awarded her weight in canned goods which will be sent, in - her name, to the underfed populace of a country of her choice.
It was pointed out at the ceremonies that the completion of the Miss Famine contest does not mean that the campus drive for the collection of canned goods to be sent overseas is also ended.
On the contrary, the goal of 12,-000 cans—one from each student on campus—has not been achieved yet and the drive will continue as before. Students are urged to bring their contributions to the Zeta Tau Alpha house.
• Fisher Plans Review of ‘David the King’ From Religious Angle
Gladys Schmitt’s Biblical novel “Davia the King” will provide the subject for Dr. Willis W. Fisher, professor of old testmert literature and archaeology, when he presents the Council of Religion’s current book interpretation Wednesday at 3:15 in the art and lecture room of the University library.
Miss Schmitt’s book, according to Dr. Fisher, has aroused considerable discussion in both literary and religious -circles. Her expression of the life and deeds of the Israelite king is fraught with modem symbolism and psychological implica-| tions.
RELIGIOUS SCHOLAR VIEWPOINT
Dr. Fisher will attempt to discuss the book from the viewpoint of the religious scholar, pointing out the basis for large sections of the book in which Miss Schmitt fills in Biblical history with her own imagination and current mental angles on a subject which lacks much documentation.
Among points at which the novel* and the bible part company is the retelling of the Goliah story, as well as certain phases of the David-Saul and David-Jonathan relationships. According to the novelist, David does not and could not kill the giant Philistine, but is built into a folk-hero in spite of himself.
The book has been criticized for its introduction of Freudian complications to David's life, but its defenders have stated that it not only is justified in their use, but amplifies and improves on the original story, bringing new light on a subject that had tended to become routine.

Fink to Limn Nervous Ills

In a comprehensive LAS-sponsored lecture entitled, “Problems of Our Time in Relation to Anxiety Neurosis,” Dr. Fink will show how the tempo and exhausting pace of life | in modern living affects an individual’s mental health.

Miss Schmitt’s book, according to Dr. Fisher, has aroused considerable discussion in both literary and religious -circles. Her expression of the life and deeds of the Israelite king is fraught with modem symbolism and psychological implica- tions. RELIGIOUS SCHOLAR VIEWPOINT Dr. Fisher will attempt to discuss the book from the viewpoint of the religious scholar, pointing out the basis for large sections of the book in which Miss Schmitt fills in Biblical history with her own imagination and current mental angles on a subject which lacks much documentation. Among points at which the novel* and the bible part company is the retelling of the Goliah story, as well as certain phases of the David-Saul and David-Jonathan relationships. According to the novelist, David does not and could not kill the giant Philistine, but is built into a folk-hero in spite of himself. The book has been criticized for its introduction of Freudian complications to David's life, but its defenders have stated that it not only is justified in their use, but amplifies and improves on the original story, bringing new light on a subject that had tended to become routine.
