One in aMillion Hand
Wins Pinochle Game
Hands Down
How does it feel to get a one in
a million hand in a card game?
Alvin S c h w art z, sophomore
civil engineering student, got the
answer to this question while en
gaged in a pinochle game last
week.
Playing with Zeta Beta Tau fra
ternity brothers David Gould, My
ron Sloan, and Lawrence Gold
berg, Schwartz calmly picked up
one of the afternoon's hands to
find it contained--eight aces!
Such a hand in pinochle is com
parable to holding all 13 cards of
one suit in a bridge game, and the
odds of drawing such a hand are
over a million to one.
Incidentally, Schwartz and his
partner won the game on that
single hand scoring 125 points.

New Process Reduces
Student Press Costs
First proposal on the ballot for the class gift now being voted on
by the Senior Class is not entirely accurate, Student Press workers
said yesterday.
The proposal states that the press would not print stndent
publications. Plans now set up for the, project call for Use
printing of all student work for such groups as Thespians, Players,
PSCA, student government, musical organizations, fraternities,
and sororities, student religious
groups, school organizations, and
all chartered student clubs.
Also included in the plans are
facilities for the mimeographing
at cost of any student work.
Equipment
Proposed for the Student Press
is the revolutionary new Perry-
Higgins printing process. This
process eliminates the most costly
and space consuming sections of
a newspaper plant—the compos
ing room and stereotyping de
partment.
Ten thousand dollar Linotypes
have been replaced by the Vari-
Typer, the ingenious typewriter
like machine.
Men who have seen the process
in operation say that it is differ
ent from the traditional present
day methods in five important re
spects:
1. No type is set by expensive
typesetting machines.
2. No headlines or ads are set
from type.
3. Highly skilled expensive la
bor is replaced by trained typists.
4. No printing is done from
lead, but rather from a plate of
'magnesium.
5. Pictures can be printed as
desired without the expense or
equipment of making engravings.
