THREE BLIND DATES Katy Ellis is fed up with Helen Woods' eternal bragging about her brother's popularity and social graces. Where the shoe really pinches is that Katy's brother, George, is about the most unsocial chap alive. Completely absorbed in scientific experiments George, away for his first year of college is as indifferent to women as an iron post is to BB shot. Wth a perseverance born of despair, Katy lays her plans for George's summer vacation at home. She spreads the news among her girl acquaintances that George has undergone a miraculous change in attitude towards girls, has, in fact, become a man-about-town. To set the stage for George's triumphal return, Katy--with the help of three eager con- federates, Ada Clark, Cora Ridgely, and Tessie Adams--gives George's colorless room the college treatment in a big way. Athletic equipment, girls' pictures, and Dave Ellis's pipes iDave is George's fatherj give the room a mannish air. Deep down Katy is afraid George will revolt against her plan and prove once again what a dim bulb he is. George arrives, with his colleague , Neil Olson, pale and purposeful. He is off on an important secret formula that must be figured out. They practically take over the Ellis house with chemicals and secret codes. Cora Ridgely discovers that George's secret formula is only flea powder. Janet Smith discloses that fact that he has three dogs at home so George under the pretense of checking the dogs for fleas agrees to take Janet to the Country Club Dance.

On May 27, at 7:40 a group of jolly juniors left from Union Station for Washington, D. C. We were on the train all night and had breakfast on the train. Then we arrived at Baltimore, Maryland. We toured Annapolis, then we arrived at our hotels and got settled. We had very nice rooms. Some of the sights we saw included The Washington Monument, Capital Building, National Airport, and Jefferson Memorial. We also went on a moonlight cruise and to an amusement park. W On Thursday morning a group of tired, but still jolly juniors arrived at Union Station. The trip was a great experience and one we will long remember.
