PAGE 4 THE DECREE Monday, December 4, 1968 POIYTIN’ AROUND by Omar Duts & Steve DeArm Here we are back from the Holidays, presenting our fourth consecutive Poiyting Around, let’s just hope we can con tinue. This week’s column will be short - but *sweet (HA!) stressing a few juicy tidbits from the Thanksgiving F estivities. This week the Hickey of the Week Award - does not go to a Wesleyan student. Constable Downing is the recipient his dog Ralph Jr. kissed him on the nick. To whom it may concern: Portville - Steve is coming home for Christmas., We hope the Holidays help Paul Robbinett bear fruit where he needs it most, after his run in with the freshmen boys. Saw Harper’s dog with a tie on the other day, but isn’t it funny how beings who live together a long time tend to look like each other? Who owns who? Ever since D. B. went to the movies last week - CLYDE BARROW Lives!! Sometime when you’refeel- ing low (and want a lift) visit The Deviates Den, Louie & Beatle are the establishments mentors.

That was a wasted sentence wasn’t it? Sad and improbable story of the Month: Over the holidays Tom Beach chanced to see a pond in a federal game reserve- and taking his gun with him- he got goosed by the fuzz. He will need a lawyer.

A Belated “Happy Birthday” to "Coach” Harper our beloved gym keeper on his 58th birth day last Nov, 27th, Don’t worry, they won’t retire you. You’re more of a tradition than the fountain.
