More muddy feet and snowballs,
tame old stuff... with zest seem
ing to be at a new low this week
even a small crowd at the tea
dance... must be the after-taste-f
-spring letdown. . .but suffering
no such let-down is Peggy Sher
burn, for even tho she now calls
Rex Brown, AGR, a has-been
steady, she gets along without him
very well . . . and a candy passing
we neglected to tell you about was
that of Kappa Delt Marion Stone,
and cigars to the Kappa Sigs from
Don Siemson . . . and at the tea
dance crowd we noticed lots of the
usual stags, such as that all-around-mighty-fine
fellow, George
Kirk, ATO; Beta Dick DeBrown;
EBT Paul Krasne with a new "A
little shorter, please" haircut; Rah
Rah Gene Richardson, Sigma Nu;
DU Heavy Day; and Fred Koch. . .
among some of the going together
often couples were Sigma Chi Don
Hartman and Tri Delta Alice
Blackstone, who go steady, and
Sigma Nu Len Dirks, who has
played around all these years but
finally decided that Pi Phi Petie
Horner was just aobut "it"... and

Aids discovery of positron.
Until Dr. Anderson's discovery
all electrons apparently moved in
the same curved path, but Ins ex
periments proved that some parti
cles, with life of not more than
one billionth of a second, moved
in the opposite direction, which led
to the discovery of the positron
or positive electron.
Anderson and his assistants re
cently built equipment which will
measure charged particle energies
up to a thousand million electron
volts. After exhaustive study and

Grod students, younger

fessors of the Bizad college met

balls" in the college present, in
the opinion of Forrest Blood, grad
uate student of economics in

discussion arising out of impromp
tu topics suggested by the at
tendants was the feature of the
evening.
Faculty members attending were
W. A. Spurr, instructor in business

you read this men, beware!
Dateless week-ends delight no
girl, particularly when their not so
attractive sorority sisters sport
full datebooks, or run around the
house bubbling over about cor
sages that just came.
Far more helpful to the man
hunter is a knowledge of how to
find an intriguing conversational
topic and a few tricks of the trade
than complete equipment for the
chase, such as a perfect torso and
a pretty pan or a million bucks
a id a convertible coupe.
Som"fimes it is not a habit she
needs to acquire, but one she needs
to lose, that is hr nemesis. It may
be something as trivial as the way
she giggles, or her posture the
way she walks or sits. Praise the
gym teachers who can convince
girls whnt an essential part of
beauty correct posture is.
Mystery is effective.
Time honored but not worn out
in fact more effective than ever
is the old maxim of being mys
terious. . .keeping her escort won
dering what she's going to spring
next, in habits as well as clothing.
The old good-night kiss isn't nearly
so sacred when it s as sure to
come as next semester's fees, and
her favorite color isn't quite so ef
fective worn every day.
And lines. Lines are almost uni
versally condemned at public lec
tures by self styled "love ex
perts," most of whom look like
they never heard one. But for boys
who don't take them too seriously,
or use similar artifices themselves,
nothing can beat a good line, even
if just in self defense.
Don't talk of other dates.
How in the name of cupid some
girls (or boys if you want to go
into it) can continue date after
date to talk of past dates or former

Infraternity council members

Communism

him with foreign "isms" in his
school. Along the same line the
current poll discovered that many
students did not know the differ
ences between communism and
fascism.
More "no opinions" than usual
(which are not included in final
tabulations) were registered on
the fascism-or-communism ques
tion. A student at the central Y.
M. C. A. college in Chicago said,
As long as there is a choice be
tween life and death, I won't have
to make a choice between fascism
or communism.
In Wooster college in Ohio a
student who claimed socialism as
his political affiliation favored
communism, saying, "Fascism is
its own goal dictatorship. Com
sweethearts after so many 6V
nounciations of these tactics by
both sexes, is beyond belief. Re
gardless of how interested your
companion may try to appear
about your previous loves, if he
cares a inker's don't-say-it about
you, you an bet your last hairpin
that he s rapidly becoming dis
gusted. It seems to be pretty generally
conceded that the best way to
woo a man is" to get him to talk
about himself. Ask questions, and
don't be small about them. Plunge
right in with "What would you
rather do more than anything else
in the world?" or "What do you
do when all your studies are fin
ished and you have no work to
do?" or "Do you approve of Hell
vpek?" If these don't make in
teresting conversations, they will
lead to something that will.
Sit and talk it's nice.
Most important and most mo
mentous: Don't jump at every of
fer to go to the movies or a dance.
Accept some, and other times re
spond "Let's just go for a walk."'
(Substitute "drive." "listen ta th
radio," "play pong-pong" or ten
nis.") Or just say "There's nothing
I'd rather do than just sit here and
talk to you." Do these and your
escort will worship the very dol
lars you keep in his pocket, and
you too.
Lastly, remember that men love
to be gallant, and if the oportunity
to be so doesn't arise, be charitable
and help gallantry along a little.
Don't hop too ably in and out of
rumble seats. Let your date open
doors. Take his arm going across
rough spots. Be mildly and loving
ly frightened of his fast driving,
thunder-storms and roller-coasters.
Don't carry this article where
he can see it.
munism is a pathway to socialism
and better living."
Choosing fascism was a Univer
sity of Texas student who de
clared that he "would rather work
for the state than share the re
sults of my labor with some one
else."
