OLD GLORY TRIUITHS
After a year of articles filled with embarrasment, ridicule, threat and
tears, the COLLEGIAN Staff had just about gin up its motheaten campaign to
get a flag on our flagpole, when ].o and behold, a P,P.U, crew appeared one
morning this week and qiietly ran up the colors, We do not know if it was our
"yellow journalism" 4nd the desire to silence our half-baked editorials that
set the big wheels in motion, but th whatever agency responsible (our nspyn
unofficially reports it was Mr. Campbell), we wish to express our gratitude.
Our nsplen also reports.-straight from Captain Carper's hanger - that the

Coeds are concerned because Bows, shoes, and accessories have to be
readied for such and event, And the gentlemen, of course, want their dance dateS
to scintillate with glamor.
The men need not hesitate: their chances of being turned down are not so
great as their modesty might make them think.
