C. C. Rider
Exit Sourly
By E. CLARY
Take heart, students. This is the last C. C. Rider until next year.
I’ve been doing a lot of studying for exams lately and I haven’t
had much time for writing columns. For this reason, the column will
be slightly different this time.
You’ve all probably heard some pretty bad jokes during the past
eight months. I know you have if you’ve ever read this column. I’ve
heard so many bad ones that I’m going to print three of the worst.
“What’s so different about that?” you ask. Nothing, except that
I usually print more than three bad jokes in a single article.
Undoubtedly, the worst joke I heard all year had to do with
two lovely girls who were strolling past an insane asylum on a warm
Sunday afternoon. A few of the inmates happened to be out on the
lawn and the girls could see them playing their games through the
fence which surrounded the grounds. Suddenly, a man with an ex
tremely wild countenance cleared the fence with a giant leap and
began chasing the girls.
He was gaining on the terrified cuties when they approached an
intersection. They decided to split up and try to confuse him. The guy
wasn’t as crazy as they thought, however, for he simply stuck to the
trail of the prettier of the two.
This girl, who had become almost exhausted, decided to stop dead
in her tracks and prepare for the worst. As the inmate drew near,
she g^rew tense with fear. What would he do to her ?
Well, he stopped beside her just long enough to tap her on the
shoulder and yell, “Tag! You’re it.” He then ran off in the direction
from whence he had come, crying “Sticks, stacks; no tag backs!”
Do you think that was bad ? Brace yourself.
It seems that a couple of guys became involved in a heated argu
ment in the parking lot of a local drive-in restaurant the other night.
No one was able to cool them down and the two soon squared off for a
fight.
At this moment, one of the would be combatants assumed the
pose of a Japanese contortionist and screamed that deadly warning,
“Karate!” At this, the remaining pseudo-gladiator reached into the
trunk of his auto and issued the equally deadly cry of “Tire Tool!”
Two down; one to go.
What would a list of bad jokes be without a cruelty joke? It
would, in all probability, still be a list of bad jokes, but here’s a
cruel one, anyway.
At two o’clock in the morning, a woman was awakened by a
knock on her door. “Who’s there?” she asked. “It’s the Western
Union boy. I have a telegram for you,” was the reply.
“I can’t open the door because I’m in my night gown,” said the
lady. “You’ll have to sing the message to me.”
“I don’t think I ought to sing this on, Ma’am. Maybe you should
read it for yourself.”
“Look,” growled the woman, “I’m not going to open the door at
two a.m. so sing the telegram or scram.”
The boy grumbled, “Okay Lady, You asked for it.” Then he sang,
“Shoe-bop shoe-bop, your son is dead.”
There you have it—the top three bad jokes of the year. As an
extra added attraction. I’m going to throw in a riddle. Who is tall,
dark, and handsome; catches criminals Ike Dr. No and Goldfinger; and
speaks Spanish? Why it’s Jaime Bond, who else?
ONE MORE QUICKIE
Now for the last quickie of the year. There is a bum working in
pll the better neighborhoods who passes this sucker a card which reads,
“This man is an epileptic. If you don’t give him a handout, he’ll pitch
T' fit.”
I wi.sh everyone a merry summer and I hope to see you all next
fpll at TTNC-C.

Ring Around
Committee
By SAM SCOTT
Colltglin Staff Writer
THE 1965 - 1966 ORGANIZA
TIONAL MEETING of the Student
Legislature was called to order
Monday night. May 10, by Jim Bur
gess (SP), newly elected SGA
vice-president. The Legislature was
addressed first by Bob Andrews,
acting Parliamentarian, and then
by Mrs. Winningham, Student Leg
islature Advisor. Bob gave the in
fant Legislature a very informa
tive talk on Parliamentary Pro
cedure.
Mrs. Winningham offered sev
eral experienced suggestions on the
organization of the new Student
Legislature. The highlight of her
address was a discussion on the
important topic of standing and
special committee for formations.
A COMMITTEE ARRANGE
MENT ACT was introduced by Tim
Brittain (SP) for the purpose of
arranging the standing committees
under the Executive Branch and
the Legislative Branch of the Stu
dent Government.
The fact that the Student Gov
ernment is divided into three
branches necessitates the need for
new committee organization and
arrangement. The only question is
which committees shall fail under
the supervision of the Executve
Branch and which the Legfislative
Branch.
Sam Scott (SP) moved that a
committee of five be set up to
determine and investigate the im
portant problem of standing com
mittees, officially called the Com
mittee for the Establishment of
Committee, hopefully, will have
the matter straightened out by the
next Legislature meeting.
A CONSTITUTIONAL REVI
SION COMMITTEE was set up
with two amendments added by
John Scott (SP). The purpose of
the committee is to review and re
vise the present SGA constitution
in order that it may meet the
needs of the new three-branch Stu
dent Government. If left untouched,
the present constitution would sure
ly become obsolete.
The committee will be made up
of ten members (two of the legis
lators from each class plus two
legislators from the night school)
to be chairmaned by SGA Vice-
President Jim Burgess.
Martin Richek (UP) moved that
a Constitutional Interpretation
Committee be set up until such
