In one ring we saw the Innocents in their performance. In another the activity centered around the naming of a Prom s- 1 t. -. .. .. c Uirl. Ana in the third nnp, there were the dancing couples. The Innocents' three-ringed circus nrom including clowns freaks, what looked like wild animals and acrobats was second only to the shows put on by P. T. Barnum himself. But everybody likes circuses. And the party was fun. The next Time somebody sponsors a dance, however, we hope they 11 take it. easy while they think of ways to build up attendance. Evening like last night are bad on a lot of people's hearts -from both a nervous and semi-broken (we can't think of any one who would completely collapse from disappointment) standpoint. ' Dear Editor: C. B. and me were talking the whole mess overso I asks him if maybe since he has retired he might be able to use a stand-in. I says, '"George"! mean C. B. well we got to agreeing finally-guess anybody can agree if the terrible l.'l can that maybe 1 could help out on short days. I guess they're long days now since the "better places'' have quit selling shorts. I talked to Mother K. the other nite and she informed me that Wallsiding;, the penman, said that a few of the "divine" were going to be the dark ones. More than one poor lad seems to have been on the catching end of a curve. I often won dered if the "terribles" sometimes didn't change their broth ers decisions and switch men after they started running on that last big dive. From the results . The next few lines are dedicated "to those who wish it was their business." More often and often and then again often more people, who know less, want to write more about a variety of things. These subjects are little known to the penmen, who are generally among "those whom this does not concern." Enough. Among things of conjecture: What has old White Space done to hurt humanity. Seems as tho he really isn't a thorn in the side of the greeks but the spur who pushes them on finds the hole in their armor, before they do. If Croesus, the greek, had a few more opponents like W. S. he'd spend more time doing things right instead of crooked. Croesus is like history, just keeps repeating himself, up and down. He gets big, then laiy, then stepped on, then industrious, then big, then lazy, then stepped on ad infintum. Why 'oh Ag' and 'ACHV can't get along. Answer: Should have been at Point B. M. Nothing but unrelaxed. For Mr. Inform. Please the 'Guest Artist' we have this coal. Hot it be! G. A. (Guest Artist, in case your wondering) doesn't seem to have heard thru his seelusive grapevine that three jr. men Mere appointed for a dozen reasons in place of the "restawhile" council. First they didn't do quite enough (the S. C.) last year, that the project had the o. k. of past ter rible prexy, and not only the blessing but the backing of the present S. C. head. C. B.'s Stand-in. As soon as we had escaped from the motor ized tumbrils the military department provid ed for our Monday afternoon expedition to and from the Ag campus, we hurried over to the coliseum to wateh prospective Innocents prac tice falling on the floor. Charles Drake was in fine form, and after he had tried a last nose dive, we heard him say, "I've been fall ing on my face before so many people this last week, that lying down is more natural than standing up." In another corner we heard Morton Zuber say, "I bet there'll be more fall guys than those that hit the floor." Bob Henderson replied, "Yeah, and there'll be more boys seeing red, than there are wearing it." We wandered off wondering if John Jay Douglass would try raising money for the War Scholarship fund, by selling bandages and horse liniment to Monday night's lucky boys. Did vou see the Union's varietv show Sun day night? We went, honine to steal some jokes for this column from Bud Levinson's ven triloquism teacher, Johnny. But Johnny proved to be less of a dummy than either Bud or we had expected, and since his jokes are funnier than ours, professional jealousy pre vents our quoting him. With a little help from Johnny, Bob "my verse might be worse" McXutt could become the poet laureate of the campus. We are stopping by the florists and the tobacconnist's Ihis afternoon 1o buy some gifts for an injured friend. He accidentally stepped in front of a charging Tnnocent last night and to both his and the Innocent's surprise our friend was tapped. There is more than one way to become au Innocent, but we think our friend has found the easiest. We look up from our Dorothy Tarker long enough to say, "If all the girls at the Junior- Senior Prom were laid end to end we wouldn't be surprised."

Roberts, all church groups, Jean Kirschner, women's co-ops; Hazel Stearn, other unaffiliated houses; Ronnie Metz, men's organizations; Professors Arndt and Roscnlof faculty committee; Jane Dalthorp, sororities and Don Papez, fratern ities.' The WSSF has found that the problem of the man in the prison camp is not that of the refugee food, clothing, shelter. It is the problem of infinite spare time with nothing to do of complete despair, loss of hope, and loss of belief in the future. That is the problem with which the World Student Service Fund helps the war-prisoner. Many prisoners, particularly in the officers' camp, were students or professors whn war broke out.
