year’s sports activities.
Mr. Holmes introduced Mr. W,

illustrated .with a lively spark of
life, aided by well-timed jokes-
In the center of the tables,
which were shapc-d like a horse
shoe, stood an “A” which was
made of white carnations. In
front of the “A” burned a large
white candle.

members and guests followed.

Juniors Sponsor Stunts
By L. ROSE
About all I know is what I
leam while “snooping around.”
But it doesn’t take “snooping
•round’' to leam a few things
^ben Stunt Night comes around.
^*ne people's ability to act just
“pops” out
Of course, every one knew that
Sigma Tau Chi’s stunt would be
^**ng the leading ones, since
^ey have such outstai>ding act-
^***es as Johnny Green and Vir-
*hjia Lancaster; but who would
'’e thought they would walk
with “top honors?” Agnes
impersonating a squirrel,
®<ut have caught the judges’
*ye.
oh boy! Did “Peewee” put
^ an act with his “T model”
or not? Frankly, folks, I
he did, and I'm certain the
thought so, too. At least

going flat, won
•ie for the “A” Club.
^'retime* I wonder if the orig-
Sigma Tau didn’t have an especial
appeal to the judges and thus win
for that sorority third place.
Maybe Hamby and Brite will
make two more Shakespeares or
Paul Greens after all.
Phi Kappa Alpha’s act certain
ly should have been in the lime
light- The love scene between
Tilly iF. H. Jarman) and Hardy
(Elmer Mottem) could not have
been better had it happened (with
a few changes) in true life. May
be they’ve been “snooping around
too. Well, that’s a pretty good
thing to do. Just don’t get your
“snozzle” caught in somebody
else’s business.
Sometimes I wonder if it was
n’t a pretty good idea of the Y.
W. C- A, to present a fictitious
house meeting. Now outsider?
know a little of the “inside dope; ’
that is, how the girl-< behave at

Great news for the paper this
month is the story of the Collegi-
ate’s first annual editorial staff
banquet, held at the Golden ^^eed
Grill on April 6, at 0:30 o'clock.
William “Bill" Gray, ouUtand-
ing member of the staff, acting
master of ct-remonies, began
by asking each person to tell what
he had learned by working on the
staff. Such answert aa these
were given; “I’ve learned you
can’t always puWiah what you
want to publish." “I've learned
I’m no journalist.” "I've found
out that "Gentlemen Aren't Sia-
sies.” “Learning who Spectator
Sid is has been my aim the whole
year; now I know.”
James Creaay, retiring editor
of the Collegiate, welcomed the
sUff, urging those present to
work harder another year and
make it a bigger, betU-r paper
than ever before.
