• It's still not too late to join the rapidly-growing
I-VV'rote-Campuseer's-Last-Poem-Club; the dead
line has been extended until 10:04 p.m. next iWed
nesday. When we published that poem, a little
ditty concerning wolves in trochaic quadrimeter
two weeks ago, we gave credit to an Irvin Hall
frosh girl. But five guys, including Bob Christoff
and Ben Snipas, the Bards of the Penn State
Club, have since claimed.authorship. 'lncidentally,
we learned that the ballad appeared in the North
eastern (U.) News •the week before it came into
our hands.
Advice To Lovelorn Dept.
Into our hands has come this urgent message
of distress from a student at Williams CoLLege,
Mass.:
"Dear Sirs: This is to inform you that one
Florence Kreiger of your freshman class has
failed to live up to her obligation of writing
me. Please induce her to do so.
So please write to the guy, Florence, will ya?
