A student discusses a Kent State committee on school songs with Professor Eric T Griebling. They plan a contest inviting lyrics fitting a low octave, two verses plus chorus, and school colors for a rousing but dignified hymn.
The essay argues modern artists mislead viewers with vague titles while critics claim mass appeal ruins artistry. It notes misnamed works like two cows titled The Sisters and sisters drawn as The Cows. Suggestions favor clearer, descriptive titles to aid understanding.
A letter argues Kent State should schedule stronger athletic opponents to boost attendance and prestige. The writer praises coaches Trevor Rees and Joe Keefe, cites Akron as a model with top programs, and urges competitive football and basketball matchups to aid scholastic and athletic development. Student supporters plan alumni efforts.
The Kent Stater is published daily Tuesday through Friday during the school year and on Tuesdays and Fridays in summer. It is suspended during vacations. Subscription is $2 per year. Entered as second class matter October 11, 1927, at Kent Ohio. Printed by Commercial Press Inc. 1155 Depeyster St Kent Ohio.
A calm command and sharp quip trigger talk of a song submission. Mention of Hiram College seeking school songs adds a literary note to the exchange about creativity and editorial standards.
Nu K party letters the Stater disputing an editorial and demanding proof for claims they back candidates by ability not affiliation. The editor replies that political tricks were discussed and accuses the party of lacking transparency while urging self improvement before the next election.
