Senior Banquet No Joke
To This Bewildered Girl
I certainly would go to that Sen
ior Banquet if I had a date, if I had
a dress to wear, if I had some
money. Oh, Avell! what’s a dress, a
date, and money in my young life.
. . . I’ll borrow a dress from my
cook, some money from my chauf
feur, and pardon me if I stumble
over the matter of a date. (Before
you read on understand one thing—
this story isn’t supposed to connect.)
Now that I am fixed and ready
to go, except for a date, wdiich I re
fuse to let worry me (MUCH), I
think I shall read up on my man
ners—Les see—“Etta Kett at the
Banquet”— gosh, if she goes I won’t
be there—I have a hard enough time
as it is. Oh, well! The main thing
I want to find out is what all the
stupid forks and spoons are for. I
know the fancy little fork is the salad
fork, and believe me they’d better
have salad. Another thing—do I
crook my little finger or has that
gone out of style? Gee, what’s this
about toast? Gorsh, if they have
that I’ll not eat it—I have that
every day.
Well, now that I’m so well in
formed, I’d better practice some—
I’ll just pretend I’m at the Banquet,
I’m sitting between two people who
are probably ribbing me or mashing
my puffed sleeves, and crunching
lettuce so loud that I forget I’m eat
ing; but I must be very demurQ and
say, “Oh my, isn’t it a beautiful ban
quet?” and he’ll say “Yes” between
chews, and then I’ll perch my flashy
ifinger nails under my chin, wrinkle
my nose and say, “Cheese guy, can’t
you spare me one o’ them biscuits?”
—M. W., ’38.
Jack Wharton; Why are basket
ball players such extravagant poul
try farmers ?
N. E. Buddy: I don’t know.
J. W.: They’re always shooting
fouls.

Went to bed with his stockings on.
The lazy thing!

PointSystem Rejected
At SACalled Meeting
Aft('r much heated discussion both
pro and con on the motion to accept
the Point System at an SA meeting
on January 28, tlu' student body re
jected it at a called meeting on

Having been passed by the Coun
cil, a Point System, drawn up by the
ISTatioual Honor Society, was intrO'
duced and explained by I’resident

unwilling to vote until a called meet
