By MIKE ROACH
The semiannual ritual of
“know and tell” is getting close
to reality again. For the upper
classmen, exams are an evil
necessity which are better off
forgotten, but for the freshmen
the exams are the first in a
series of eight two-hour solo
flights through the dense van-
cuum of their inner space.
The traditional run on “MID
NIGHT OIL” has been very
slight so far, but as the hours
dwindle away toward D-Day, the
use is expected to increase rap
idly. Everyone seems to look
pretty normal so far, but dur
ing the weekend and the follow
ing week the scene will become
similar to that of a medical
rehabilitation center, as eyes are
barely open and people drag
about under the pressures of
above normal neuro-activity. Ner
vous tensions build up prior to
the blast off of knowledge and
continues until that time when
the fruits of increased study are
posted.
For some, increased study will
pay off, but for others who never
heard of studying for any test
except the night before will re
alize the error of their ways.
There will be weeping and
gnashing of teeth. . .Sorry ’bout
that; better luck next time.
Many students have been keep
ing well above their subjects by

The burning of mid-night oil.
Takes place at semesters end;
It’s a synonym for cramming.
On which most of us depend.
Follow this girls example,
And sleep during the day;
Forget the mid-night oil,
You’ll never pass that way.
