Orphan Crow Found
On Windswept Steps
In Wee Small Hours
The lost-and-found department of
the Campus Patrol was stumped last
Saturday morning. They run a bu
reau which finds articles that other
people lose around' the campus. They
identify the
° article and put it in a
pile somewhere until someone comes
around to claim it. 'But the boys were
stuck,' because, it was the-first time
anyone had lift a baby crow in a
cardboard box on Old Blain steps.
The sleuths got together and rack
ed their brains, but even that didn't
do. much good. The directions in the
book didn't cover baby crows. And
then they figured it needed some bird
seed or something, and a cage. But
maintenance of lost-and-found artic
les isn't in the book either.
After "consultation,• they finally
doped it out. The people over in the
department . nature education
know how to handle all kinds of ar
ticles like baby crows, which is a
specialty with them. So the waif is
on exhibition over at the department
of nature education; and- there •are
still a number of .notebooks, pencils,
texts, hats, and rubbers up in the
patrol office, Room 321, Old Main..

I 'Ladies of the Jury'
Dress Rehearsal Set
For Thursday Night
"Chief Yougel, can you spare a
spitoon?"
State College's lone gendarme can
expect such a request next week when
Elizabeth Balderston '37, property
manager for the next Players' pro
duction, "Ladies of the Jury," be
gins a last intensive search for props.
"Ladies of the Jury," to be given
March 30, has been the Waterloo of
many an efficient property manager,
' according to Miss Balderston. After
searching patiently for a spitoon in
all the out-of-the-way places that she
knew, Miss Balderston was told that
the borough offices contained an ex
cellent burnished brass creation.
The next 'most difficult prop, says
Miss Balderston, is six steak dinners,
steaming hot. These are only slight
ly harder than a lamb chop, a ukelele,
a dozen striped jail pillows and sheets,
two glasses of orange juice, a bunch
of violets, and a wet towel.
Dress rehearsal for "Ladies of the
Jury" has been tentatively set for
nest Thursday night by * Prof. David
D. Mason, of the department of ro
mance languages. The technical staff
is nearing the completion of the dif
ficult set of the small New Jersey
court room.

Dear people who make Arrow Shirts
I used to be known as the loneliest man
on East 57th Street. Other fellows had dates
with swell-looking girls. All I did was to
draw pictures of them . . . Finally I dis
covered Arrow Mitoga shirts, S".S.* They looked
great--they fitted great. As a result, look
at me now up there in the picture. See that
blonde clinging to my right arm, and that vision
clutching my left. That'll give you just a rough
idea of bow I'm doing. And, my friends, I owe
it all'to"Arrow Shirts.
