Dempster
Dumpsters
TO THE EDITOR: The sound
of fire-crackers being dropped
into the echo chamber between
Waring and Hamilton has been
suppressed and finally silenced
by the sound of the wonder-of
wonders the Dempster
Dumpster
Daily, somewhere between
the hours of seven and mid
night, the drone of this great
white machine shatters all
trends of thought, regardless of
the conscious (See Webster,
def. 6) state of the students.
All work immediately comes
to a stop. The dumpster at
tracts all the gapers, as they
throng into the courtyard to
stare in amazement as a mech
anical monster goes about its
work.
We concede that this marvel
of the machine-age is indeed
a great gadget to have around,
but not at those hours.
It would make a fascinating
toy for some kid if it were
turned out in scaled-down rep
licas. Imagine - being the first
kid on your corridor to own a
miniature Dempster-Dumpster.
WOW! However, who needs
the full-sized item under their
window when they're trying to
put in a few quiet hours of
study in the evening.
We realize, of course, that
garbage collecting at the Uni
versity is a relatively new con
cept, but what's the sense of
searching with a flashlight for
the cans?
We also realize that most stu
dents are in class during the
mid-morning hours and since
relatively few of these recep
tacles are near classrooms,
would it not be,asier to collect
it all during the morning and
afternoon and to give the op
erator the evening off?
If these ideas are not real
isticAPinaybe the University
could put felt padding around
the necessary parts, such as the
bottoms of the cans, the arm of
the Dumpster, etc.
Another thought would be
to create a vacuum around the
truck so that the whole process
would take place in silence to
the outside.
Enough of that. Now to
briefly consider the source of
the Waring garbage, a parting
thought next to Shelley
Berman, the cook at Waring is
our favorite "sick" comedian.

Coeds Hit Sigmcm Sarcasm
TO THE EDITOR: In reply to
Mr. Sigman's letter in the July
6 issue of The Summer Colle
gian, we'd like to express our
thank for his sarcastic and en
joyable humor.
It is quite evident that he is
one of our superior students
who seems to have a solution
to every problem possibly a
psychology major? Especially
interesting was the statement
about such "intellectual . sti
mulants" as Physical Educa
tion and ROTC:
You seem to forget, Mr.
Sigman, that a state law re
quires a certain number of
hours in each of these courses.
It is not difficult to perceive
that you, of all people, fail to
realize the value of a sound
mind through a sound body.
The U.S.S.R. is well prepared
not just because of scientific
and technological advances in

the past years. The Russian
Gymnastics Meet indicated
that they are the peak of phys
ical fitness and should serve as
an example for every Ameri
can citizen.
A great many of us could be
considered fortunate if we
were able to pass a fitness test
given in our own country, let
alone one given in the Soviet
Union.
If ever the two great forces
(U.S. and Russia) were to come
into combat, machinery and ar
tillery, including jets and bal
listics, would be only contri
buting factors to the victor's
success. Condition of the land
forces would have to be con
sidered also.
One final thought and that
is: Let's think before we criti

We may need their help in the
future.

For . bakers invest in electric light and power

Point is: people own your power company.
Not the government, the city or the state.
But people with money to invest.
The power company is investor-owned by
people like you.
