ONCE UPON A TIME
A Froth editor decided to go
to class. He had to. Things
were desperate. He was flunk
ing, the old man gave him the
word, the dean gave him the
word, It was a case of go to
class or leave the Nittany
Valley.
Anyway, this going to class
got to be troublesome. Before
he knew it, the Editor had
missed a deadline. Egad, he
said, what'll I do? Egad, he
said, I've got it! I'll sneak
some' stuff from the Harvard
Lampoon, the Yale Record, the
Pitt Panther, the Texas Ranger
and the rest of the mags in
our exchange file, and that
way I'll get out an issue with
no work. He did, and it work
ed so well he tried it again;
as a matter of fact, he put out
seven issues that way (you
see, this going to class is a bad
thing).
That's how it started—now it's
a tradition. Once a year, Froth
editors take it easy. They leaf
thru all the other humor mag
azines, and pick out the best,
the very best cartoons, to pre
sent to you in the annual ex
change issue. Add to this more
cartoons by Ralph Meier, Dick
Anderson and Sam Vaughn,
an all-out parody of the Daily
Collegian, and the result will
keep you happy, the exchange
issue that has sold out for the
last two years. It you've seen
them you'll want to get this
one. If you haven't, you owe
it to yourself. Froth's ex
change issue goes on sale next
Tuesday, April 28. It's the
Froth you'll want to save and
show to your folks. Don't
miss it!
