.ipielfle , :eho*stp, now that everyone is comfortably settled after
'.the ' r riow you see it now you dOn't" Easter vacation, we'd-like to give

recogni ton to the.prof who said nonchalantly, "I'm not going
IfO'be here Thursday and Friday. You can act accordingly."
Door to Door Service . . .
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 . .
In a • recent interview' , Odette
Hector, , Costa Miceli transfer, ex
plaining a low. of - the customs. of
her land, said, Costa Rica we
must take a chaperone with us on
every-'dite , until •we are engaged:
It is 'very silly. At .lirst.the Amer
ican soldiers .stationed on the
island „could not understand this
Custom, but now they take ..the
chaperone and like it." Well, they
take the chaperone, anyway.
Sleep, It's Wonderful . . .
At Princeton the V-12ers' pet
instructors have developed new
tactics for the case of the sleeping
student. Accordirig to a letter
Pjayer Claire Kohn received re
cently we learn about the boy who
fell asleep, in calculus class. In
stead of issuing forth with the
customsry,,pollte ,shoVe or, gentle
shout, the prof motioned his class
to silence and after the hour
everybody tiptoed out. Last re
port: still sleeping!
To Censor' *or .

. .
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." A characteris
tic trait of College—even the signs
are polite.
