PAGE FOum ncore /\ en' Or 'Cram _Artist', You Must Know The Language There may be what is known as an intercollegiate language which links one school to another, but just be stranded on an alien cam pus some day and you'll find your self trying to translate net words that simply won't jibe. If the Dean called you in his of fice to say you were "getting ;3tabbed" (Wesleyan U.) or "catch ing a blippy" (Duke), you'd prob ably realize you were "getting the cob" (lowa State) and would have to do an "encore" (Ohio State). but would walk out moaning, "Geez, I 'flunked out!"' If you're on the other end of the curve, they're apt to call you a "cram artist" at Duke and a "DAR" at U. of California. Georgia, Tech terms him the "three point five man." but we know him as Education Problems Disscussed At Parley Problems of education were discussed at the conference of the Child Study Association of Am erica last week, according to Mrs. Marion S.

We "polish the apple" here for the "heat gods" (Ohio State's profs) while of Ohio Wesleyan they cover it all by doing a neat "quill" job. And, when we're ac cused of "sleeping in," at Ben nington it's.merely a case of "tak ing a pad." Your stiff courses are "lulus" at Duke and exams are "board fights" at West Point. If they're too tough, you'll probably have to Ferdinand (throwing the bull at U. of West Virginia.) In case you want to call a coed by some other name, you might note that to the men at Illinois they're "O.K. Judys." Chicago U. is rather liberal with "dollies," but cynical Duke names them "sex traps." /111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 1 Ellen H. Richards Tea Set for 4 P.M.

Food preparation begins early in the morning and ends at dinner with, the help of 60 College men. Waiters line up before the steam table and take platters of ,meat and vegetables to each tables. Sec onds, beverages, and desserts re quire return trips when dirty dishes and silverware are'.placed in the dish washer. Fourteen dish washers place dish4S on a wooden rack, send them through the washer and rins er, and then into the hot plate -heater.
