I wonder why it is t h a t the sound

My roommate and I heard these

and came upon a real honest-togoodness "bull-session."
W^e settled ourselves comfortably

of conversation. "Carl told me . . ."
"I wonder where Paul Is?" And

Chatter
By LOIS O'NEILL

Welcome Freshmen—
This i« your super snooper with
t h e latest reports from t h e front.
W h a t with customs and stuff. It's
probable t h a t you're not wasting
to much love on upperclassmen a t
this stage of the game—but believe
us, this is juist our way of showing
our affection for you . . . t h e velvet hand In t h e Iron glove method.
Now for the dirt . . .
With a dash of passion (copyrighted by L o r e t t a Moran) w e have
these charming couples — although
during customs they look more like
gruesome twosomes:
Mark Beals and Eleanor H a r d y
enjoying t h e fall sunsh-ine (or was
it fall moonlight?) out on front
campuis.
Chris being ogled by Al Peterman.
"Banjo" T h o m a s s a y i n g more
than "heUb" to Dottle Holienbach.
J a c k Herrlngton looking "t h a t
way" a t G r a d e Davis.
Helen King and Bill Royer "armIn-armlng" it around campus.
T h e Honorable F. B. Yon has
fallen. It's rumored t h a t her name
is Mary Louise Conkey.
Bob Weaver and Garnet Williams
a r e double crossing t h e T. C. girls.
They've gone to greener fields for
their women.
Under threats, I link Bob Carpenter with Marty Badick.
Did you know that Joe Burnis is
a transfer from Geo. Washington
University? By the way, he's been
branded a "swell guy" by t h e boyis
In t h e dorm—and who should know
better t h a n they?
John Tyan Is close on the trail of
HANKA. Don't give up, John, customs can't last forever.
If a n y of these a f f a i r s last
throughout customs, you c a n be
sure It's love. Any man t h a t can
stand the sight of a girl in pigtails,
black stockings, apron, and laundry
bag deserves a citation for bravery.
J u s t who are the tive freshman
boys t h a t have dates with Sllnker—
all for the same night?
Grace Marie Chambers wished to
have it a n n o u n c e d that, after
months of practice on her flute, she
is now ready to p-ive a recital. The
main theme of the program will be
centered around the selection "Merrily We Roll AlonK".
Tip to Freshman by Marion Burkhart—Please, please, when you run
out of candy for upperclassmen, buy
iicoiice drops to take the place ot

^O X Y

the hard tack that h a s been In c i r culation.
Where did Jeffrey get that h a i r c u t ? Any resemblance to a N a z i
prisoner is purely coincidental, a t
least, his barber says so.
Ask Doris Greene to tell you w h a t
Rick told the lieutenant.
Also, Mary Drick wiil read to you
her latest telegram from Hartley a t
any time—Just say t h e word.
Sight of the week—
Margaret Madden, sitting in h e r
room, etudlously reading "The A d ventures of Nicci Bunny In M a n ners Land." The funny part Is t h a t
s h e seemed to be enjoying It.
Of course, you all know w h o s e
ring "Bonnie" is sporting.
Doctor Kilsdonk, alias Simon L e gree, is doing plenty of whip s l a s h ing as head of the Tribunal B o a r d .
According to our bargain, I h a v e
to mention LeJune Pier, so I g u e s s
I have to call attention to that fi-aternity pin she's wearing. It w a «
given to her (he didn't need t o o
much persuasion) by Earl " s o m e thing or other".
