TUESDAY. MARCH 1. 1960 Schmidt Says Panama Wants to Possess Canal What the people of Panama want most is to see their flag fly over the canal, Orvel A. Schmidt, professor of for estry, told the Faculty Lunchecn Club yesterday afternoon. He visited the country last year under the U.S. govern ment's Point 4 Program to advise private industry Schmidt said that the Pana manians feel they were sold out by the French engineer who turned over the building of the canal to the United States in 1903. He pointed out that although the Panamanian government gets about $2 million in rent from the canal, "the canal com pany has complete control over the courts, police force, sale of products and hous ng in the canal zone. Schmidt said that in 1936, the canal company had promised that its stores would only buy those products from outside sources which could not be supplied in Panama proper. However, he said that when he was there, these stores still sold American sugar. He explained that some Pana manians take advantage of the lower pi ices in the canal zone stores to buy pi ociucts and sell them for profit in the rest of Panama. Living conditions are good for the Panamanians who live in the zone but the Americans there have a better living stand ard and are envied, he said. There are many poverty peo ple living in the interior who might be stirred up by other coun tries, he admitted when ques tioned. "Panama is interested in co operating and working with this country," schmidt told his audi- However, he said that his im pression of American Panama nian relationships in the zone was that many technicians sent by this country make no effort to understand the people. "Live with the people, be one of them, come down to their level and have friends in the country," he urged as his solution to the problem of better relationships. THESIS .

THREE WHO PASSED IN THE NIGHT Last year, as everyone knows, 1,210,614 undergraduates dropped out of college. 256,0 e flunked; 309,656 got married; 375,621 ran out of money; and 309,254 found jobs, As you have, of course, observed, this accounts for only 1,210,611 nut of 1,210,614. What happened to the other three? Well sir, to find the answer, I recently completed a tour of American campuses nhere I interviewed 40 million students , and sold several subsoiptions to The Oprn Road for Boys, and it pleases me to report that I can now account for those three elusive undergraduates. The first was an I.SU junior named Fred Gaugin. lle was extremely popular, always ready with a smile, fond of folk dancing and pralines, and last semester his Chi Psi brothers unanimously elected him treasurer of the fraternity. This proved an error. Gaugin, alas, promptly absconded with the money and went to Tahiti to paint. The fraternity is bending every effort to extradite Gaugin, but Tahiti, alas, is currently observ ing the feast of Dipthong, the Sun-God, a five-year ceremony during which all the islanders wear masks, so nobody, alas, can say for certain which one is Gangin. }lob* eei sgybr cep&iiltfizid oz is 6a6liz . The second mb•sing widergraduate is William Cullen Sigafoos, Oregon State freshman, who went one day last fall to a dis reputable vendor named A. M. &still eight to buy a pack of Marlboros. Mr. Sie,hweight did not have any Marlboros be cause Marlboros are only sold by reputable vendors. However, he told Sigafoos that he had another brand which was just as good, and Sigafoos, being but an innocent freshman, believed him. . Well sir, you and I know there Is no other brand as good as Marlboros. That fine filter, that flavorful flavor, that pleasure, that joy, that fulfillment e Marlboro's and Marlboro's alone. All of this NA as quickly apparent to young Sigafoos and he flew into a terrible rage. "As good as Marlboros bked!" he shrieked, kicking his roommate furiously. "I am going right back to that mendacious Mr. Snshweight and give him a thrash ing he won't Mon forget!" With that he seized his lacrosse bat and rushed out. Mr. Sashweight heard him coming and started running. Now Mr. Sashweight, before he became a disreputable vendor, had taken numerous prizes as a cross-country runner, and he thought he would soon outdistance young Sigafoos. But he reckoned without Sigafons's stick-to-itiveness. At last report the tn 0 of them had passed Cleveland. When they reach the Atlantic Seaboard, bad Mr. Sashweight nil( get his lumps from Sigafoos; you may be sure, and I, for one, am glad. The third missing undergraduate, also named Sigafoos, is a Bennington sophomore named Celeste Sigafoos and, ironically, She never intended to leave college at all. She was merely going home for Christmas on the .Natehea, Mobile, and Boise Rail road, and during the night, alas, her upper berth slammed shut on her. Being a Bennington girl, she naturally did not wish to make an unseemly outcry, so she just kept silent. The next morning, alas, the railroad went bankrupt, and Miss Sigafoos today is lying forgotten on a siding near Valparaiso, Indiana. Fortunately she has plenty of Marlboros with her. And how about the rest of you? Do you have latent§ of Marlboros? Or if you like mildness but you don't like filters, plenty of Philip Mortises? Hmm? Do you?
