When a suit failed to be the correct size for one of his customers recently, a local retailer didn't let College dorm rules keep him from satisfying both the old and a new customer. Semis a Watts dweller notified the, proprietor about the wrong size and a little while later he found a customer the suit would fit. An order was placed for the correct size for customer number one and customer number twolm mediately received the suit she desired. Almost immediately, that is, since it took only a few minutes cfor the genial merchandiser to run •up to Watts, locate the girl's room, ind the suit and then, quick as a flash, hurry home with it. l'he Pity of It All . .

Letters from last semester's grads . are dribbling little by little now and we quote from one ex- Stater who, in . fond reminiscing, writes back of an instructor, "Give hith my compliments and ask him to consider making a record of one of his lectures and try listening himself." And that should squelch the rumor that all the bitter 'peo ple are confined to the campus. What.Do You Say? . . . In closing may 'we add, 'IPLEASE help keep your canipUs beautiful. thanks."
