A» usual there is always one sorority which “seem* by comparison outstanding for certain private reasons (w® have to be nice to the other sororities!). W* so completely enjoyed working with this group that the name TRION will be added to the list of "Bermuda Contenders.** And while we're at it for equally valid reasons let's add Phi Sigma Sigma. Should either of these two sororities be picked from the box, let them select in the same manner a member of their group. Concerning Bermuda ... Customarily a Collegian staff member selects the winner from a box.of names of the girls whose picture or nam® appears in our column. This year two copies of a girl's name will be placed in the box if her portrait is used in our column, thus doubling her chances of selection. And of course, names mentioned in this column in itself make! a girl eligible. Points are cumulative as well. The figure following the names below indicates th® number of copies of the girls name to be placed in th» cigar box. If you detect an error, please notify ut.

So to define controversial statement* like this, we offer as testimony: Kosher pickles are so hard to get. So is air-conditioning in local theatres (grapevine data —a crated "cold-maker" is now sifting behind one of the theatres.) Occasionally being mistaken for a student by the local gendarme this can be a costly error-to us, a $15.00 fine for being a half hour late in removing old licensa plates from car is ridiculously steep—especially when the new plates were seen by arresting gendarme. Oh well, perhaps because it was late, officer mistook us for students. HEIL DER COLONEII l >. continued next week. - We don't intend to offend anyone but half page ads in local paper depicting a big TO% price reduction is offensive to anyone's intelligence! Don't step on one toe when,it's easy to crunch them a 11,., m Except for one or two acts, why must May Day Festivities be as routine as they were 9 years ago when we saw our first one? What happened to all the color and gaiety it should have had. Surely originality isn't that hard to locate. This is a far cry from what we've seen at Universities half this size.
