The last straw was the shattering of our dream that when we inherited a Collegian column .we would write under the 'lLean and Hungry Look" heading, last used and abused by former colleague Milt Dolinger. .A frantic search through' the - printshops revealed the unhappy fact that Dolinger absconded with "Lean and Hungry." • But that's 0.k., Milt, if you had a sentimental attachment to that line of type, and if you get any satisfaction out of the thought that no one else will desecrate the title, we won't quibble about it. We thought up a new head, anyway, - and we guess the efrort . expended was good for our soul. 'Once over slightly . . . A back: room conference among the Thespian lads resulted in the election of Gil Stratfon (who recently saved the show for the musical comedy boys) and Lee Lutz to that august body. Of course, Goss did cast three votes (for absent members, he says), but then parliamentary procedure never was much up their alley. Barney's back .. . .

Barney's back!" Anil then each prodeeded . to 'outline Barney Weinberg's exten sive college career. We're quite willing to concede that the guy's a boy wonder, a miniature Orson Welles, a heluva swell fellow, but it got to a point where the entire staff got an acute case of palsey at the mention of his name. But just to make it official, we want to announce to all and sundry that Barney's back. • • , . , Is . our face .red • t, An especially funny passage in "Barefoot Boy with Cheek," an hilarious take-off on campus life, really hit home with us. One of the saner chaiaCters in the book •brightly suggests; f"people don't half ap preciate their mothers, There might to be ,a ;special day set aside for mothers. It could be called Mothers' Day." ,We can sympathize with his unwitting ignorance because last, week, in a mood of reformation, we suggested in an edit that we thought no one, would ,read that a com mittee of students, faculty, and . seivicerneri should be set up to provide adequate weekend-enteiliiiiinent. - .„.i.We!ve ;been walking around in a perpetual blush since we iiiscoverecilhat a committee does exist,'under the title of Committee on RecreatiOn :and Welfare, :and has been _ func tioning all summer.

Seeing Bill Reimer spending part .91 his furlough back on campus reminded us how nice it'd-,be to, have a -couple -male .staff members around the office again. •But then who are we to bemoan the inevitable evolutionary process that's finally • resulting in giving women their rightful place on campus? We were always griping that we never had enough say in. putting out the rag; and gee, but it's great to be able to have hen-sessions without any men, poking their noses in—it says here. .
