200 Students
Attend Mixer
Approximately 200 students .at
tended the freshman-sophomore
mixer Saturday afternoon in the
Hetzel Union ballroom, according
to Arthur Schravesande, 'former
freshman class president.
The Illri-Tones, a combo which
were scheduled to play for the
mixer did not appear, due to .a
death in one of the musicians'
fondly. However, a group of mu
sicians from the freshman and
sophomore 'class provided music
for the affair.
Schravesande and Samuel Wol
cott, former sophomore .class pres
ident, .gave farewell addresses.
Lack of interest on the part of
the students and lack of publicity
were judged as reasons for the
poor showing at the mixer, ac
cording to Schravesande.

'gging Bomb ,
fated Plane
DENVER t Nov. 14 (A ) )—Rigging
of a dynamite bomb that blew up
a Uruted Airlines plane, killing
his mother and 43 others, was ad
mitted today by a 28-year-old
Denver forger.
U.S. Atty. Donald E. Kelley said
John Gilbert Graham, construc
tion and restaurant w or ke r—
termed a playboy by probation
officers had signed a "written
admission."
Graham waived a hearing on ,a
"peacetime sabotage" charge and
was jailed when he was unable to
supply $lOO,OOO bond.
The sabotage charge carries a
maximum penalty 'of 10 years in
Prison .and $lO,OOO fine.
Kelley met with state prosecu
tors to consider whether the slim,
youthful-appearing ,d et end an t
should be turned over to them for ,
prosecution ,on murder ,charges,
punishable by ,death in Colorado.
"One element in breaking the
case," Kelley said, was an air
flight insurance policy for $377,500
on .Graham's mother, Mrs. Daisy
FBI •agents, who ,arrested •Gra
iham, reported he took out thelpol
icy at the Denver Airport shortly ,
before she boarded the ill-fated
plane for Alaska. Ironically, the,
policy was invalid because the
mother had not signed it.

THE TRUE AND TRAGICAL TALE OF
HAPPY JACK SIGAFOOS
Who would have thought that Happy Jack Sigafoos, the boy
the Elky never rained on, would ever teeter on the edge of a life
of crime?
•Certainly there was no sign of it in his boyhood. His home
life was most itranquil :and uplifting. His mother was .a mice
plump lady who hummed .a lot and gave baskets to the poor. His
father was a highly respected citizen who could imitate more
than four hundred bird calls and once saved an elderly widow
from drowning In his good suit. (That is, Mr. Sigafoos was in
his good suit:; the elderly widow was in swimming trunks.)
!Happy Jack's life was nothing short of idyllic—until he went
off to .cdllege.
In college Happy Jack quickly •became a .typical freshman—
trweetly, seedy, and needy. lie learned 'the joys 4of 'rounding ,out
this personality, and and; learned the cost. His ,allowance vanished
like dew before the morning sun. There -were ;times, it ,grieves
me to report, when 'he didn't even have .enough for .a pack of
'Philip Morris—and you know how miserable that can le'! To be
deprived of Philip Morris's gentle ;flavor, its 'subtly ,blended
tastiness, its trauma-repairing mildness, its ineffable excellence
—Why, it is a prospect - toy reak 'the heart in twain'!
Happy .Jack tried to get more money from home. He wrote
piteous and impassioned letters pointing out that the modern
lacge-capacity girl simply could not be maintained on his meagre
allowance. But all Jack got from home were tiresome homilies
about thrift and prudence.
Then (one day .a sinister sophomore•eame up to Jack .and said,
,know how you can set more money from home." Jack said,
"Bow?" and the sinister sophomore handed him .a sheet of
paper. 'Tor one dollar," said the sinister sophomore, "I will sell
'you this list of fiendishly clever lies to tell your father when you
need extra money."
Jank mead the list fiendishly clever lies:
a. A /bunch ,of us fellow (are (getting together to buy a sew
Amos Or the Dean of M,.
I. A bunch 'of tea flBUo betting 'together to tray .a head
stone
,for Rover, our Late, .id dormitory watohdog.
3. A :hunch of us fellows-L. ... getting together to buy the college
a new 'fullback.
4. A bunch of us fellow :are ,getting together to , andow,a.ohair
:of 'fine arts.
5. A bunch of ma fellows are getting together to , buiLd our,own
space satellite.
For moment, poor Jaok was tempted; surely .his father could
not but support 411 these worthy causes. Then Jack's good up
bringing came to the fore. He turned to the sinister sophomore
and said, "No, thank you. Itould not deceive my aged parent so.
And as for you, , sir, I tan only say—Fie!"
Upon hearing this, the sinister sophomore broke into a huge
grin. He whipped off his black hat and pasty face—and who do
you think it was? None other than Mr. Sigafoos, Happy Jack's
father, that's who!
"Good lad," cried Mr. Sigafoos. "You have passed your test
brilliantly." With that he gave Nappy Jaok •a check for a half
million dollars ,and a red convertible containing four nubile
maidens.

'Before driving the four miles to
his country estate where he will
spend another six weeks or more
of continuing to convalesce from
his Sept. 24 heart attack, the
President spoke from a platform
in the square to the beaming peo
ple surrounding him.
He told his "future permanent
neighbors, I hope," that he and
Mrs. Eisenhower "feel deeply hon
ored that you should turn out
today to 'welcome us to this area
where we expect to make our
home and which has been so long
a part of the Eisenhower family's
life."
As a young Army officer, Eisen
hower was stationed here during
World 'War I.
And the said he thought that
Mrs. Eisenhower decided back in
1918 that Gettysburg was going
to be their 'home on retirement.
He didn't say when that might be,
though. It was a gorgeous Indian
summer day.
