His lengthy oratory in P. A. D., which is broadened by his swallowing of a dictionary will probably lead to a seat in the Senate. WILLIAM J. BORSICZKY ‘Bill’’ General Undecided Bill is so blamed quiet we hardly know he’s here. I guess he can’t help it though, because he always has to listen to his neighbor’s noise. ) HERBERT aban BOS “Herb‘’ Scientific Rutgers Band 1, 2, 3, ire Herb steers clear of the women as much as he can.

These tall, dark, slender people are the ones we know very little about, but they tell us that “still waters run deep.”’ FRANCIS MICHAEIL BRUNETTI “Frank’’ Commercial Pace Institute Banking 1. As we tear Frank’s life apart, we find every time he cracks a joke he has to tell us when to laugh. Here’s hoping the Yanks come out second.
