His |iurpose, us stated, was to see if Hartley and Bartley really were in love and to give them his regrets if they were. (They were both such good guys, he said later, that lie just couldn ' t squeak). Anyhow. Mickey planted himself under President Eleniing ' s chair and in the hottest part of the fray, nerved himself enough to eliew a hole in Prexy ' s trouser leg. Prexy saw him and Mickey thouglit, Minnie is a divorcee no longer, but a widow. Incidentally, iliclcev didn ' t understand our jiresi- dent ' s kind lieart. In the gentlest way ])ossihle. the mouse was lifted to the desk and introduced to the faculty. Dean Irwin, always worrying a1)out some- one ' s welfare, was awfully concerned al)Out it all. Prof. Gessner tugged at liis coat sleeves iierMuisly and watched Mickey ' s reflexes work. After Prof, olf liad given tlie financial report and luiil taken up a ccdlection to liuy flowers f(U ' Coacli Listou who had recently been iujiired jumping tlie hurdles, .Marv .-Vuna Lawrence served tlu ' hcmor guest witli apple pie and (■h ' ese made according to one of her snitzy reci|ies, and Prof, Balch assisted her by serving puiudi and ]iretzels to all. Wlu-n business was ended, the gang decided that allowing Mickey to leave town witliout any kind of rece] tiou Would not lie doing justice to the famous star. ' I ' liere- fore. Leavengood and Bratton V(dunteere l to furnish the music if the rest wanted to dance, and when everybody shouted AYE, Mickey estalilished liim- self safely in Prexy ' s coat pocket and they departed f(U ' the gym. VVliile Tommy was reviewing to the guest the histories of our famous alumni (whicli. by the way, he tells without n ites). Dean Koclian and wife started the dancing. Prof. C ' ragoe and Prof. Guest kept Senorita Perez laughing at tlu ' ir usual dry wit, and Prof, Kraus didn ' t cpiite know wjiat to nuike of it all. Prof. Alex took him aside and explained the fact that simply liwause t ' ragoe and (iiiest ke]it straight faces was no sign tliat their jokes weren ' t funny. Prof. Alex was then introduced to Mickey and the stir mentioned Mrs. Alexander ' s Candy, stating that he liad read tlie Dutch translation, Alex just started grinning, his eyes twinkling as they often do in liis classes. Mickey was all set to hear further coin- iiients on Candy but with his usual modesty. Prof. .Alexander merely remarked. Yes — ah — yes, I ' m gbid ou liked it. Bv the wav.
