Margaret Nordlie Wins First Prize for Criticism of Collegian Appearance of The Collegian on the news-stands Tuesday morning marked the second issue of the publication. This number, which is styled the May- June issue, is larger, both in page size and in thickness, and contains a Graduation cover. Margaret Nordlie, Cottage Grove, Wis., won first prize of two dollars in a contest ,which the Collegian editors sponsored on the Concordia campus, to get the best criticism of this issue of the magazine. Carl Tiller, Battle Lake, won second prize of one dollar. Similar contests, in an effort to se-cure a large number of good criticisms of the publication, are being conducted on the campuses of Moorhead State Teachers college and North Dakota State college. The winning essay, by Miss Nordlie, is as follows: '"Hie May-June issue of The Colle-gian shows much improvement over the last, both in content and in style, but there is still room for further de-velopment "I would divide the material roughly into two parts: those having some claim to literary merit, and those having a modern but transient cleverness. Ex-amples of the first are: They Shall Not Rest', 'Sand Dunes', 'Strange Too1, and 'Man of the Scar*. The second group contains such as: Typical Spring Thoughts', 'Sir Walter Turns Over*, and Tin That Way/ "This division almost coincides with another: the signed and unsigned ar-ticles. One of the most objectionable features of The Collegian is the large quantity of anonymous matter, which is rather common and not readily de-fendable. "The two dramatic articles are well done 'Movies' however, is the usual thickly-spread, meaningless advertise-ment "A suggestion for Improvement Is a classification into short story, article, or poetry, given with the title in the table of contents. "The Collegian does extensively cover college activities from scholarship to idle thoughts. I believe it has justi-fied'Itself, for although not all selec-tions have shown genius, they have at least stimulated thought.'1 Gabriel Hauge, Hawley, waa elected president of the student body, and Robert Korstad, Redby, editor-in-chief of the 1935 Cobber at the annual elec-tion Tuesday. A total of 256 students cast their votes in the election. Magne Syvrud, Mandan, N. D., was chosen as vice-president of the student body, and Rachel Johnson, Bismarck, N. D., as secretary-treasurer.

Margaret Nordlie Wins First Prize for Criticism of Collegian Appearance of The Collegian on the news-stands Tuesday morning marked the second issue of the publication. This number, which is styled the May- June issue, is larger, both in page size and in thickness, and contains a Graduation cover. Margaret Nordlie, Cottage Grove, Wis., won first prize of two dollars in a contest ,which the Collegian editors sponsored on the Concordia campus, to get the best criticism of this issue of the magazine. Carl Tiller, Battle Lake, won second prize of one dollar. Similar contests, in an effort to se-cure a large number of good criticisms of the publication, are being conducted on the campuses of Moorhead State Teachers college and North Dakota State college. The winning essay, by Miss Nordlie, is as follows: '"Hie May-June issue of The Colle-gian shows much improvement over the last, both in content and in style, but there is still room for further de-velopment "I would divide the material roughly into two parts: those having some claim to literary merit, and those having a modern but transient cleverness. Ex-amples of the first are: They Shall Not Rest', 'Sand Dunes', 'Strange Too1, and 'Man of the Scar*. The second group contains such as: Typical Spring Thoughts', 'Sir Walter Turns Over*, and Tin That Way/ "This division almost coincides with another: the signed and unsigned ar-ticles. One of the most objectionable features of The Collegian is the large quantity of anonymous matter, which is rather common and not readily de-fendable. "The two dramatic articles are well done 'Movies' however, is the usual thickly-spread, meaningless advertise-ment "A suggestion for Improvement Is a classification into short story, article, or poetry, given with the title in the table of contents. "The Collegian does extensively cover college activities from scholarship to idle thoughts. I believe it has justi-fied'Itself, for although not all selec-tions have shown genius, they have at least stimulated thought.'1 Gabriel Hauge, Hawley, waa elected president of the student body, and Robert Korstad, Redby, editor-in-chief of the 1935 Cobber at the annual elec-tion Tuesday.
