Student Gets
20-Foot Letter
A 20-foot letter written by
hand on a roll of shelf paper re
ceived by Ricardo JacksOn, first
semester business administration
major, should make most students
ashamed of any of their own lax
letter writing habits. „
Jackson received the letter yes
terday from Petra Siaga, a senior
at West Catholic High School in
Philadelphia. The letter was be
gun on March 17. Petra wrote
about events that have happened
in her school, Philadelphia, and
Washington since that date.
She wrote about Sen. Joseph R.
McCarthy, the movie “New Faces”
—with; comments about Eartha
Kitt—a hew jazz workshop in
Philadelphia, and the academy
award winners. Jackson said he
has not had time to read all the
letter yet;
Jackson quoted a bit of advice
from his. “Penpal” who said that
if he “doesn’t get good marks, we
will have to turn the letter over
and use it for shelf paper when
we get married.”

MISS "I.B." LAZARUS
For your heroic efforts ...
in braving the glaring light, the blasting music, and the
occasional corn, -we offer you members of the sororities
. and fraternities whose composites we have done, the fol
lowing earth shattering (said modestly) deal. As of today
and tomorrow and maybe Monday, you may order 12 min
iatures of the portrait, used in your composite for the stag
gering sum of $1.95. This would usually cost you $7:50.
It’s amazing what you can do with these miniatures. You
can force them on people who’ve done you dirty or even
give them to friends you hope to never see again. Or
better yet, you can send a few to prospective employers to
show them how pretty you can be with just a little re
touching. For your sadistic ones, send them to your rela
tives as a small retaliation for the graduation gift you
didn’t receive.
if gold bars ...
be on your shoulders in a few days, you could well do
your folks a time honored favor and present them with a
portrait of a uniformed you. It’s about time you gave them
a lasting gift.
Will you be sporting block . . .
on June 7th? Then for Pete’s sake, if it’s a graduation
portrait you’d like, make arrangements now for your sit
ting before the crowd gets here. We invariably have to
turn away sittings because of the last minute rush. Make
your appointment now.
Oh, yes . . .
This will be the last time to pick up extra party pictures
taken throughout the year, up to and including the last
big weekend. Only two or three extra prints per house.
If you didn’t get one this is the last opportunity.
