auditorium tornoriow night will be lustv bellows

Accoiding to the sages, women always liaie it
Or if they don't have it, they somehow conti ivc to got
it. And so, hcie it sets the infamous Duke on the
dunce stool and piovcs tint his “To a Bi own-Eycd

THE L \ST WORD
Response this way is quick and complete,
Though as you suggested it’-, not quite elite.
Thu is not in defense
Of my thyme and loa-on,
Only plain sense
Your tempei to season
But haish woicK shuck, when biocres aie soft,
And thoughts tend to lmgci alone and aloft
To leave you illusioncd
Would be a blessing no doubt,
(Tlio Daniel, then, lot gives oui bout . )
Sunshine and biee/es can bode no ill,
And now I caie nought foi the victoi’s woik-skill,
I heed only the joy of new spnng’s tin ill.

Down With “Good Health Week’’
With all this talk of Good Health Week cnculut
mg hithci and thither have come many due icsults.
By actual count 21 fiatermty catcieis were filed and
l'H men fainted on learning that they were being
slowly staivcd to death One fiatoimty cateicr up
on being told that he should seive at least one good
meal during the week lcplicd that eveiyono ought to
be glad that weeks aren’t nine days long
And while speaking of food the othei day, Miss
M J A ’3l said that she had a consuming dcsiie,
while J L C "U expounded the gag of the child that
was ijised on trollev fme
The wealth of a Mnigan
Is not my ambition,
Fame is not all I desue
I’m not a slave to
Silly supeistitinn,

Then speak not of riches
Oi lionois tried and tine,
My tastes ate simple—
Al! I want is you
The Egg Situation
While go.ng fiom one gioceiy* store to anothei
in search of the one that sells the manda inpe colei y
to fraternity caterers, Daniel was suiprised to find
that the town groceiv business is facing a financial
cnsis
“We didn’t know until it was too late," the gioc
ors said, “that many fiatcrmtics had abolished ‘Hell
Week’ Until this ycai we could count on*3oo ficsh
_men buying ail egg every day foi a week, making a
total of aLout 3200, or a little more than thrcc-foui ths
of an egg foi each student in college ”
Now, it seems, the old adage, “A paddle a day
breaks an egg a day,” doesn’t hold, and the giocers
me o\oi stocked
Daniel investigated, only to discovei a huge sirnj
ply of eggs that weie laptdly aging to the point at
which they arc usually sold to fiateimties The sup
ply is so gieat that it would requuc a week foi thn
teen C & F’s, woikmg day and night, to ioil all the
eggs down Allen stieet
Daniel suggests that Inteifiaternity Council ap
point a committee to investigate the situation.
And then there’s the I F. C official who thought
that the Interfiateimty Ball pioposcd for Apti! 11
would mteifeic with the W. S G. A convention be
