"He who laughs last, laughs best" is what the Dorm girls were aaying when news came that the Sig Eps are quarantined for scar let fever until Sunday. It's too bad that the quarantine couldn't have been put off another day so the Sig Ep pledges could hold the dinner dance for the Alpha Chi pledges.

Thetn-Delta Sig combina tions are: Jean Dresden and Bruce Boyd and Patty Pierce and Clyde Irwin. The DGs will have quite repre sentation with Janet Krause and Phi Cam Bucky Meiers, Kay Det weiler and Sig Alph Norm Milton, and Anne Crosby and Beta Bill Schaumberg. On Furlough. Sylvia Katzman, SDT, will be seen with her boy friend from the army who is here from Richmond, Va., to spend a fifteen day fur lough. Rose Goldstein of the same sorority will dance to Teagarten with Cadet Dave Openheim from UCLA. At this point we wish to assert some information but do not know whether to address it to a certain soldier or to Miggs Manning, so here's to both. To the interested soldier: Miggs Manning's address is 540 No. 16th Street: telephone number, 2-7371. To Miggs: The inquiring soldier is tall, about 6 feet, has dark hair, blue eyes and is good looking. I'll count this as my good deed for the day. How Does He Rate. Hugh Atkinson, Beta, is going to start keeping a date book if the women keep calling him for dates. Anne Abel asked him to Jack Tea garten, to celebrate the Lincoln High Sadie Hawkin's day, and Mary Lou Holtz asked him to the Alpha Chi party Saturday. With final examinations coming up in five weeks we have a solemn warning to give you in the form of another person's experience. Profit by it' Caught. The tension in the room was so thick you could lean against it. The Dean sat up in his chair and nodded to the proctor to go ahead. The proctor smiled one of those smiles that was practically fright ening a confession out of the un fortunate student called in on the carpet. The poor sophomore had been accused of cheating, and his case looked hopeless. He shrunk back and tried to avoid looking at the gesticulating proctor scream ing at him. Now the proctor had the boy Mass Meeting OfWAATonite, Install Officers New officers of WAX will be in stalled this evening and three awards presented at a WAA mass meeting at 7:15 in Grant Memor ial.

"We have the goods on you," he bellowed, shaking a ham-like fist. "Come on now, talk turkey!" The accused soph could stand it no longer. He was cornered. Raising his head, he shreiked, "Gobble, gobble!" Local Boy (Continued from Page 1.) Capt. Summers says, was thi one: "We were attacking Crete in a B-17. Suddenly someone looked up and there was a Messerschmitt 110 diving straight for the nose of our ship. (That's where the cap tain was). Our gunners got a good hit and the Jerry burst into flames but he kept on coming right at us. Our pilot managed to lift the ship enough to clear the German,, but we were plenty shaky. Renews Acquaintances. Summers met Wendell Willkie when he was in Palestine, and got close enough to Carole Landis when in North Africa to get her signature on a "Short Snorter" bill. The sight of a white woman, especially one of the Carole Lan dis caliber, was like a glimpse into paradise, he says wistfully. He also met Lt. Dick Joyce, when he was in India, and saw four of the university fraternity brothers when stationed in Al geria. After his fighting in the various corners of the world, Captain Summers has due respect for the Germans' fighting ability. He likewise feels that the Italians are a worthy enemy when they have something worth fighting for. They are inadequately armed in comparison with the Germans, he said; and they are friendly toward the Yankees, he noted. Al UlllIlllS ( - r J V 5 ri J ml! i. Adra.
