It’s right about here that we always
include a little campus chatter. If it
were possible to sit in on the “general

known as “Wolverines,” hold, we
could write for days on end about
this sort of >hing; but facing the fact
that we can’t, we just give you what
we pick up here and there.
Leon Gibbs, the most widely known
boy on campus, is off to a fresh start
this quarter. When he returned from
spring holidays, he brought back a
pair of G. I. cream colored shoes that
surpass all of its nature. And for hi:
love life, it appears that Faye Robin

Wednesday evening on campus was
like days gone by. Every boy and

lovely weather. It really was good to
see so many of the lads and lassies in
their spring apparel.

It was a delightful sight to see so
many people turn out for the plays
last Tuesday night. No one could as
for a more appreciative audience.
Among the high lights of the evening
was the appearance of a cat on tne
stage during one of the musical inter
ludes and the huge crowd that gather

performance.
Bob Gaskins is apparently debating
between the new and the old. It is
somewhat a surprise to see how well
he holds them both.

SONG OF THE SAD SACK
I’ve got to be patient with Tennant,
And I hate to be alone with Malone—
I’m tempted to bicker with Ricker,
Guess I’ve got a mind of my own.
I’d dare to haggle but Jack Bragg’ll
Make thinks a bit too hard;
I’ve bought a few furrows to the brow
of the Burroughs,
Oh. gee. I'm really a card!
If I could show Mr. Cross he isn’t my
boss.
Be a little smarter than Carter,
I wouldn’t mind if I paid with a week
in a stockade.
At least that would do for a starter.
But still I repeat if some day I meet
an SCO who has my interests at
heart.
Then I swear I’ll reform and do my
best to perform as I should
have done from the start!

I car drivers. For instance, the noise
’ you just heard was a little black model
“A” Ford. It backs up into the hedges
and swings to the left on one and one-
half wheels. There’s a squeal of
brakes, a clash of gears, three or four
cadets knocked down or run over;
then the little black Ford comes back
to try and get out the other way.
Just because you drive an ambulance
doesn’t mean you can drive like that,
