TUESDAY; APRIL 18. 1961 Judicial Workshop Asks Co-ed Board A co-ed judiciaboard which would handle cases involving both men and women was pro posed at the Judicial Work shop held last Friday and Sat urday. The board might replace the present SGA Supreme Court, Edgar Dowling, workshop spokes man and member of North Halls Tribunal, said. The workshop, composed of representatives from all student judicial boards, decided that seven people should sit on the co-ed group, Dowling said. The men would be represented by a member of the Off-campus Tri bunal, one from the On-campus Tribunals, and a member of the Interfraternity Council Board of Control, he explained. Dowling added that two mem bers of the Association of Women Students and one from the Pan hellenic Council would represent the women's organizations. The head of the Traffic Court would also sit on the co-ed judicial to insure that there would be no voting ties, he said. An advantage of a co-ed judi cial committee, Dowling said, is that it would improve communi cations-between the offices of. the Dean of Women and the Dean of Men and between the various judicial groups. Dowling, who represented the workshop led by Gary Robinson of the IFC Board of Control said that there were also several dis advantages to a co-ed judicial BIKE REPAIRS .

He said that the dif ferences in the handling of cases brought before men and women's courts would be a dis advantage of the plan. Drinking cases involving women ar e handled by the dean of women. but those for men are handled by the men's tribunals. he ex plained. Both the dean of men and the dean of women may be hesitant to accept a decision made by a co-ed group, he said. Another disadvantage he listed was that women students may hesitate to appear before a co-ed group be catise "they may want to with hold information that would em barrass them in front of men."

A ROBE BY ANY OTHER NAME As Commencement Day draws near, the question on everyone's lips is: "How did the different disciplines come to be marked by academic robes with hoods of different colors?" Everybody but everybody—is asking it. I mean I haven't been able to walk ten feet on any campus in America without somebody grabs my elbow and says, "How did the different disciplines come to be marked by academic robes with hoods of different colors, hey?" This, I must say, is not the usual question asked by collegians who grab my elbow. Usually they say, "Hey, Shorty, got a Marlboro?" And this is right and proper. After all, are they not collegians, and, therefore, the nation's leaders in intelligence and discernment? And do not intelligence and discernment de mand the tastiest in tobacco flavor and smoking pleasure? And does not Marlboro deliver a flavor that is uniquely mellow, a selectrate filter that is easy drawing, a pack that is soft, a box that is hard? You know it! But I digress. Back to the colored hoods of academic robes. A doctor of philosophy wears blue, a doctor of medicine wears green, a master of arts wears white, a doctor of humanities wears crimson, a master of library science wears lemon yellow. Why? Why, for exaMple, should a master of library science wear lemon yellow? Well sir, to answer this vexing question, we must go back to March 29, 1844. On that date the first public library in the United States was established by Ulric Sigafoos. AU of Mr. Sigafoos's neighbors were of course wildly grateful—all, that is, except Wrex Todhunter. Mr. Todhunter had hated Mr. Sigafoos since 1822 when both men had wooed the beauteous Melanie Zitt and Melanie had chosen Mr. Sigafoos because she was mad for dancing and Mr. Sigafoos knew all the latest steps, like the Missouri Compromise Mambo, the Shay's Rebellion Schottische, and the James K. Polk Polka, while Mr. Todhunter, alas, could not dance at all owing to a wound he had received at the Battle of New Orleans. (He was struck by a falling praline.) Consumed with jealousy at the success of Mr. Sigafoos's library, Mr. Todhunter resolved to open a competing library. This he did, but he lured not a single patron away from Mr. Sigafoos. "What has Mr. Sigafoos got that I haven't got?" Mr. Todhunter kept asking himself, and finally the answer came to him: books. So Mr. Todhunter stocked his library with lots of dandy books and soon he was doing more business than his hated rival. But Mr. Sigafoos struck back. To regain his clientele, he began serving tea free of charge at his library every afternoon. There upon, Mr. Todhunter, not to he outdone, began serving tea with sugar. Thereupon, Mr. Sigafoos began serving tea with sugar and cream. Thereupon, Mr. Todhunter began serving tea with sugar and cream and lemon. This, of course, clinched the victory for Mr. Todhunter be cause he had the only lemon tree in town—in fact, in the entire state of North Dakota—and since that day lemon yellow has of course been the color on the academic robes of library science, (Incidentally, the defeated Mr. Sigafoos packed up his library and moved to California where, alas, he failed once more. There were, to be sure, plenty of lemons to serve with his tea, but, alas, there was no cream because the cow was not introduced to California until 1931 by John Wayne.) issi MRa ghuitnan And today Californians, happy among their Guernseys and Holsteins, are discovering a great new cigarette—the -un filtered, king-size Philip Morris Commander—and so ars Americans in all fifty states.
