Steady Eddy and Clomp
(Continued from Page 3)
Well, Eddy was real gone by
now. And he followed Viola around
just as Clomp used to follow him.
He learned a lot from Viola too.
He became one of the best drag
gers on the strip in his newly
bought Austin-Healy. And Viola
taught him to smoke up a storm
and live it down. That was quite
a job, too.
But after a few months of this
real livin’ Viola became bored
with Eddy and saw less and less
of him each week. Finally she
told Eddy that he didn’t make the
grade and besides his Austin was
much too slow for her ... he
ought to sell it back to that
teacher anyhow. So poor Eddy
was left out in the cold . . . 'de
jected and forlorn. He even flunk
ed his psychology. So he wander
ed) about the campus with that
“unhappy college boy look” for
weeks and weeks. One day he
came across Clomp by accident
in the gym. Clomp wasn’t in very
high spirits, either. But as soon
as they saw one another, they ran
up to each other into a clinch.
“Clomp!” yelled Eddy. “Eddy!”
yelled. Clomp. From then on the
two former friends were insep
arable . . . wherever Eddy went,
Comp bounded after him. Now
the last .that anyone has ever
seen of the two pals was last
week in the swimming • pool,
where they were skin diving for
sharks. Maybe they found one
because they haven’t been seen
since.

TECH TALKS
There currently is a contest be
ing held in D.D.T. (better known
as S.J.T. or Snow-Job Technol
ogy) . It is a low quiz-average con
test and the competition is over
whelming since the answers are
all coded in the blackboards in
disguise and since perpetual re
takes of tests always tend to bring
up one’s average. (Note to in
structors: A grading curve will
snap if it exceeds 180 degrees.)
Although it may not be true, it
is rumored that “Pop” Werner
has a kink in his arm ... it seems
that his writing capabilities are
limited to check marks.
Some of the student body feel
that certain instructors should’ try
to limit their class cuts to one
per week. Meanwhile, back at the
oasis, Norm and Guy were guard
ing the canal while a few of the
boys were busy instructing Mr.

• Dorm Chatter •
By Margie Heffner
The report has cc-me in via Miss
Judith Trench that she will not
wash her right hand for the next
month—the President shook it.
Jane McClain has really been
in the limelight lately. Undressing
in front of open windows with
Marlene ahd Bill serving as a
critical audience and providing
the spot light.
A new hobby has been started
at the dorm—breeding ants. Some
think an ant’s diet consists main
ly of cake.
Sue Tully’s face acquires that
red beet look when she’s embar
rassed, but she has nothing over
our little Rossie. That Florida suv
lamp does the job quite welL
Betsy was ill with a bad cold,
but that didn’t stop the gallant
Don Juan from returning.
Under the spreading chestnut
tree a rabbit named Kufer was
hanged—by the neck! Perhaps
Carol, Anne or Renita know some
thing about this dangling' mam*
mel.
Wilt was straining her ears to
hear the faint whispers. Is McGoo
a gossip? We’re awfully glad she’s
back to our barren center any
way.
Sexy Daisy Mae Dee may be
heard screaming “Hells Bells” as
her talent in printing signs seems
to be wasted. Someone keeps tak
ing down her classical works of
art.
“Any record, but not my
Frankie!” cried) Helene. She and
Myma returned from home one
Sunday to find some of their
records had warped.
Nuts, nuts for coconuts. Amy
won’t eat the coconut she got
from that-certain someone who
is vacationing in Florida.
By the way, Annie, the straw
berry shortcakes you!ve been
bringing us. axe delicious. Thanks
a lot!
Yes, we dorm girls have been
busy lately. Not a moment’s rest
as cracking shots of another civil
war echo ’round campus—" The
South shall rise again!”
