Three-Ringed Circus . . .
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."

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.
