The subject under discussion in
one of Dr, Werkmeisters classes
Inst week was free will, so the
prof challenged anyone to appear
on the campus clad in pajamas.
"I wouldn't be afraid," volunteered
Bill Crittenden to which Brnie
Shaekcl slyly remarked that at
least It would he a change from
that plaid coat.
History repeats itself it seems,
and Kred Shirley who would
rather make love than history
anyhow has this time fallen head
over heels with Rosalie Moll, so
now that Chi Omega Mortar
Board is in for a rush from
Acacia's Casanova gridstor.
A. T. 0. Bob Sandburg's re
sistance is anything but low. Last
week he had a date to the Park
with Marie Anderson and that
very afternoon she discovered she
was coming: down with a case of
mumps. Making all the sisters
promise not to toll, she went with
Bob anyway and then spent the
whole week in bed. Dob, however,
is still young and healthy.
Bob Wadhams may be having
fun with his panning," but his bat
ting average has certainly slumped
at some houses. Not long ago he
called Jane Bell for a date which
she considered practically an in
sult after some of Bob's fancy
keyhole work which may be the
cause of a weekend campus.
Harold Niemann at last found
the grirl of his dreams. The only
trouble is that she's wearing a
pin and besides he doesn't even
know her. Yesterday he was feel
ing very dejected when in walked
Kred Remington with his Dentyne
to cheer him up. Which reminds
us that the A. T. O.'s ought to be
around when Fred's passing out
gum. or else they should cut down
on their onion supply, Have never
seen an A. T. O. yet when he
hadn't just had smothered onions,
or was looking forward to a nice
juicy hamberger "with every
thing." And speaking of hamburgers
you missed something if you didn't
see Marj Melville downing a size
able one Saturday night all in one
bite. And then there's the Pi Phi
who, when she has a date with
Carl Norden, works up a good ap
petite by not eating for a couple
of d.tvs.
AG-GKAVATIO.$
Another campus heart throb is
now definitely out of circulation
since Claude King hung his pin.
That hanging has been expected
for some time, and it looks like
all it took was the moonlight Sat
urday night. The lucky girl was
Addis Cole, the girlhood sweet
heart and home town girl.
Lawrence Tomich, A. G. R., and
Ray Cruise, Farm House, had to
go a thousand miles into the
sticks to bury the hatchet. It hap
pened during spring vacation, and
if what they say is true, politics
were not even discussed the whole
time. One of the other of those
boys sure must be slipping.
The mixer coming up Saturday
night is causing no end of thouble
for some of the members of the
Poultry club. Burneil Gingery was
shopping around for a date, for
the affair and got into no end of
a mess with his old girl friend.
BY THE 11 AUMEH
Spring is back again and a
young man's heart turns toward
love; anyway it did Saturday
night. Cars were full of lovers
most of that night. The Kappas
had one swell party but the chil
dren didn't seem to like it because
everybody was parked out in
someone's car sooner or later. In
fact two couple came over to the
Sigma Nu house and played
bridge. What spring doesn't do to
the person with a loving nature!
The Haunter has been threat
ened by somebody who has no
room to talk. Or has he? You
children probably read about it
in Master Wadham's Pirt dig
gings by Pee Wee, Sunday. W ell,
he threatened me nnd my spooks.
We are not afraid because we are
good people.
Peg Weaverling. the Pi Phi
wild woman, is having trouble with
her Kansas City boy friend. He
heard that she had lieen two-timing
him so he called up from
the big city and bawled her out.
He talked to her for half an hour
or maybe it was an hour. It was
a swell argument.
A
John "Jingleluemer"' Bock, the
woman hater of the Sigma Nu
house (and the only one) has fi
nally come out of hiding and is
seeing some girl on Monday, Wed
nesday and Friday. Anyway he is
all dressed up on those days. He
wears his new spring suit "but he
claims he is trying to wear it out
so he can buy a new one.
Jean Fetter, PI Phi, has been
making daily visits to the Phi
Delt house. Jean can be seen go
ing in that house about the same
time of day, every day. Nobody
knows who or what the attrac
tion is.
Jackie Fuller, Alpha Fhi, and
Bruce Lyon, Sig Chi, have been
saying for the past week that
they were not going the narrow
path any more but it leaked out
to yours truly that they were plan
ning to pass the stuff. This may
not come off but we predict it
will soon, if not last night.
We met Mary Anna Cockle Sat
urday night for the first time and
the first thing she said was that
1 she had not written her column
and wondered if we could tell her
anything for her news. Fine stuff
and we work so hard.
