PAGE EIGHT
Piglets, Coeds Struggle
At Little international
Rescued from the pig sty for the
day, 10 squealing, squirming,
struggling, little pigs led scream
ing coeds a merry chase at the
Little International Livestock
Show.
While the spectators howled and
hash bulbs exploded, Jezebelle,
Salome, Suzie Q, Heps, and Bob
paraded into the Stock Pavillion
in. bright . new halters, gleaming
leashes, and with straw in their
hair.
With their Liberal Artist coeds
in tow, the pigs, only eight weeks
old, raced to the starting line and
tugged on their leashes impatient
to start. By the time the "Go"
signal had (been given the piglets
were ready for a nap and so were
their . mistresses, but the whips
cracked and off they—walked.
Pigs, Coeds Whips Tangle
Down the length of the ,pavillion
amid the cheers of the spectators
they str ugg le e. while leashes
tangled and coeds tripped over
pigs and each other. Whips swung
through the air and contacted with
everything but the pigs as the
Liberal Artists experimented at
being Simon Legree.
The barrel. was the obstacle
stupendous 'as the coeds tried to
entice 'the pigs around the right
side and down the home stretch
again. Crossing leashes and Mother
Nature taking her course were
among the difficulties 'most en
joyesl by the people in the grand
stands and least enjoyed by the
struggling coeds.
Pigs Have Minds of Their Own
One pig dashed down the last
mile like Barney :Divell to the
finish line, stopped short, and re
fused to move. His 'poor , drwer
not permitted by the rules to pull
him, tried whipping instead and
soon' found herself racing the op
posite direction away from the goal
line.
Finally three pigs staggered
across the line at the same time
as the flash bulbs went off in
dazed coeds faces. The end of the
race? Oh : no! A final heat between
the winners of the first two heats
faced the winner, M . rho by this
time would have been glad to lose
rather than face the ordeal again.
'Torture Continues
Even so, the torture wasn't over
when the goal line was reached
for the coeds were instructed to
pick up their little demon charges
and parade the length , of the pa
vilion for the third time with the
darling brats under their arras.
Naturally the pigs put up a
slight objection to being handled
like a sack of potatoes instead of
25 pounds of potential pork chops

and the result was like a blaring
automobile horn which reused to
stop. Deposited, at last, back in the
good ole pig sty, the pigs grunted
contentedly, while the 'coeds re
solved to collaborate on a hook,
guaranteed to be a best seller, call

Letter To Editor
To the Editor.
I write this letter with some
skepticism as it is my first at
tempt in• same time at offering
an opinion as a civilian.
I've been on campus as an ex-
GI for less than three weeks but
'uring this time I have main
tained a concurrent attitude to
ward my classes and the people
involved in my attendance there
at. I've been especially interested
in my Mellow ex=Gl's; both those
who have attended classes prev
ious semesters and those who re
cently registered with me. 'lt is' a
wonderful :feeling to really know
that despite several years of
service we are basically the same
people. It is even more wonderful
when we realize that less than a
yeEr ago many of us were still
digging fox holes so that we
might preserve those necessary
parts of the individual untfica
tion required :for the utilization of
the benefits of Ph. 116 or 346. It
was just a dream then—now , it is
a realization.
:Studying is more difficult foe
me now than( ever before—if have
never 'been anything above an
average student .
Deutsche 'Verein Hears
