Why would Cholko make a good aviator? He wins through the air. What was the longest forward pass ever made? Cholko to Motyl-From Pole to Pole fRadioj.

He is always standing between two guards. Why do Schreiber's kicks remind you of Maxwell House Coffee? They are good to the last drop. If I see a boy in our gym walking on his hands, why do I think of Schreiber? Because he's not on the right end. Your fullfback is a clever boy. Yeh, he ran thro' a hole in a line. What football signal does every student like to hear? Forward, pass. Why does the 4th down remind one of 19+6? It is 3 down and one to go. Why does the Huddle System remind one of the last election?

Despite the evident, obvious, incontravertible impossibility of infinite attainment along these lines, inestimably intrin- sic and invaluable considerations con- strain us to counsel our devoted sub- scribers to consent to consecute this idea. Labor omnia. vincit. Forward be our watchword And the grave is not our goal, If we can't work the teacher for a 70 We sure'll be in a hole. Dear Doc: What do you recommend for too much homework? XYZ. ANSWER: Ask me another. Doc Killyuh: What are teachers for? , FROSH. ANSWER: 51300 to 53000 a year. Dear Doctor My English teacher gave me 50 altho I had three 95's. How can I get back at her? QDP. ANSWER: Quit her class. Dear Doc: Your column is the vilest, most li- belous, most anarchistic and intoler- able bit of unnecessary and detrimental space filler ever devised to pad the yellow sheet you write for. Here's hoping you get bumped off within the next 24 hours. KM. ANSWER: Thanks. Don't forget the roses. I don't usually print these let- ters but this one is an excellent ex- ample of what the public seems to think of me. Alas, the life of a pub- lic servant is hard. DOC KILLYUH'S CONSULTATIONS E 1 of some of her best pre-war examina- tions fvintage 19071. The club con- vened promptly at 2:00, and after the minutes and hours of the last meeting, with results, had been re- hashed , announcements of prizes won were made. Milton Belinkie received 4573rd honorable mention for his work on Dragons and Their Habits, entered in a contest conducted by Snappy Stories. Other awards were not released for publication, due to the modesty of the winners. The special treat was served when the program was becoming dull, and Kane, Collins, Hersey, and several others were indisputably asleep, fat this juncture, the meeting became hilarious, following the distribution of the rare papersj It was necessary to adjourn early f11:30j, when certain members had become unmanageable. D. S. C. A new club has been formed at Harding, entitled the D. S. C., com- posed of those who know what the title means. Officers are Smith, presi- dent, Smith, vice-presidentg Smith sec.-treas. It is expected to prosper, under the stimulus of publicity on the back page of the Speculator. HISTORIC FILM SHOWN HERE FOR TENTH TIME Hardingites cheered with joy last week when at the irregular weekly assembly, Yale's Eve of the Revolu- tion was shown. The ovation which greeted the historic film was typical of that which is always granted here to an old favorite fjoke, speaker, pic- turej. The hisses, with which the Red-coats were greeted, showed the presence of the independent spirit of the Colonistss still surviving over a century later in their descendants. This film, which has been shown to Hardingites so many times that even the office statisticians, accustomed to checking the number of failures, have lost count, has become an institution. It is feared that our grandchildren, in the dim future, may revolt whein, inevitably, the film wears out. Pros- perous alumni, mindful of this, are gathering a fund to purchase dupli- cates on especially durable film, so that this crisis may be avoided. E961 bought, and condemned if too eace- ful. I learned that military drilflas are carried on daily in a large armory in the north section of the building, and that the participants are accustomed to demonstrate their tacticul superior- ity over other Americans in numerous contests. During the two days I sat on this bench and wandered into one of the discussion circles. The things I heard I will trust to no cables, but will communicate them to the Cabi- net personally. At the close of the forum there was a stampede for the halls, where pandemonium had bro- ken loose. I allowed myself to be carried by the crowd, and was swept down a flight of stairs to an eating- place, where, amid hideous noises and utter confusion, the asvages swallow their food, purchased at ridiculous prices. Later in the day-how much later I am unable to say-a mass meeting was held, at which the inmates sung barbarous songs and cheered lustily at seditious speakers. Samples of cheers, songs, speeches: Tihs is our day . . . we will win . . . we'll never givein...wewewewewe...yard by yard we'll light our way . . . Harding will turn back the invader. i There was every indication of an ex- pected battle. I would strongly urge a special cabinet meeting to consider defense measures for the empire. This danger must not be underestimated. This week I shall visit the Central High School, said to be a seat of RED propaganda. I do not know what I shall End. It is understood that everything in this dispatch is confidential and SCCFCC. LAWRENCE Who was that lady I seen you wid last night? That wasn't no lady-that was E my wife. EPITAPH Weep o'er the bones of Percy McHashg He didn't know his pomes for his English class. E CERTAIN cEN1oRs CAY l Sammy Dizenzo says he likes Eng- lish. Ben Murphy says he lost the class presidency by a nose. One senior said this column is good.
