Vniversities And Colleges Present Their Share
Of News Hiehliqhts Throughout the Country
. . Sri, c Tnvi T T in an intramural nosture contest
Tsides Freshman Beauty con
tents being held on campuses
throughout the nation colleges
and universities have their share
of other newt highlights and Fooling,"
sidelights.
A glance through:
The Iowa State Daily showed
that a Courtesy Week poll of
housemothers said the students'
g-catest fault was th'ir poor
sidewalk manners. "Men are
thoughtlessly rough, and girls
pay too much attention to con
versation and ignore passersby."
Colorado's Silver and Gold dis
closed that a narrow margin of
73 votes defeated the honor code
in balloting by the Arts and
Sciencec students. The commis
sioner of academic affairs said
that since the students didn't de
sire this method it is necessary
lor effective proctoring which
will "assure the honest student
of an even break on his exams."
Daily Californian reported
that while students studied for
finals CO skeletons were found.
These were found, incidentally,
not by the students, but by an
anheological survey financed by
the Board of Regents. Other
things besides skeletons were on
the schedule, though, including
plans lor $G.5 million worth of
new buildings.
Collegian of K-State revealed
that the radio's Hit Parade fa
vorite. "SunUower," has been
suggested as the official sweet
heart song by the Collegian's
staff.
Assuming a protective attitude,
the "Advice-to-innocent-y ou n g-maidens-desiring-to-remain

a barn with a fellow who looks
as if he had lofty ideas.
New Mexico Lobo proved that
"keep-off-the-grass" signs can
be humorous. Such examples as
"Keep the grass for smooching,"
' Only manure goes here," and
"Don't ruin the gay young
blades" were enough to slow
down the student before he cut
across the lawn, but failed to
completely stop him.
The Indiana Daily Student in
dicated that there will soon be
"lady rasslcrs," if campus girls
continue to show so much inter
est in the grapplers' sport. Dur
ing the Big Nine meet, I. U.
winners were awarded with
medals which were presented by
campus beauties, who saia n
isn't becoming a woman's world?
The Battalion of Texas U.

in an intramural posture contest
clad in clothing ranging from
evening gowns to bathing suits.

Olnlmtifll Citn
jPhcrnc 4-2033 56th A Randolph IB
Professor Dubious Intellect is
sued an official concoction of the
second semantics section of the
first philosophy fragment last
night after the die-annual phil
sophy feast around the new Bur
nett totem hall.
Speaking as head of ths
philosophy department and as low
"As students of s-e-m-a-n-t-i-c-s
(he spelled the word because ne
wasn't sure of its pronunciation,
for philosophers aren't sure of
anything and semanticists aren't
sure that they're not sure of any
thing) we must remember, we
must remember, well, we must re
member. At any rate memory is
important."
I Remember
"Oh, I remember what 1 was
trying to remember," he cried.
After wiping his tears, he con
tinued, "Students of semantics
must remember to study seman
tics. They must also remember
the importance of the connotation
if words. As my old friend S. I.
Uawakawa puts it in his book,
Language in Action, there is a
.-light difference between a
"choice piece of filet mignon" and
n "hunk of dead cow."
"But in my book I use orig
inal examples to elaborate on that
point. My examples are so funny
Bob Hope almost died laughing
when he heard them. Well, maybe
he didn't almost die laughing, but
he almost died. For instance, I
say 'old cranks' instead of 'faculty
members." I use 'flunks' instead
of 'ones' and 1 use 'old bag' in
stead of 'young woman.'
Write It Rag:
"I write 'Rag' instead of 'Daily
Nebraskan' and use 'corn instead
if 'cornshucks.' Furthermore, I
use 'innocent' instead of 'not in
nocent.' Falling off his totem pole, he
concluded, "Ugh! Just send me
two boxes of wheaties and I'll be
able to eat breakfast again!"
IN CVer go aruunu wmi a iiioi
ried woman unless you can go two
rounds with her husband.
Wife (to late retiring husband):
"Is that you, dear?"
Husband: "It had better be me'."
