April Humor Publication to Appear on Campus Stands Today. Several old contributors to the Awgwan have written new bits of humorous material to lighten the heavilv-burdened minds of vacation-wearied collegiates as they read the April issue of the humor magazine which appears on cam pus stands this morning. In the worJs of the publication's editorial comment, the contribu tors to the April issue come "out of the grave, out of the bushes, and out from behind easels." Willis Stork. '33. who once drew a cover for the Awgwan that was used by a national magazine this year, is one of the returned con tributors, as is Weldon Kees. Mr. Keos writes an article. "Late Bus from Beverly." of which he writes amusedly from Hollywood: "I have tried, in" my own way. to make it clean, enlightening, and sophisti- cateu. Dobson Writes Article, Howard Dobson. editor of the Awgwan. composes for the issue an article. "Ya Gotta Have Guts." which tells of the experiences of Harold Krattenbottom in the of fice of the New York tabloid where he has just gone to work. Maurice Johnson contributes "I Have to Smile."
