CAMPUS BANDITS Since the beginning of time there have been bandits of various sorts. Most of the bandits were mercenary and were a serious menace to mankind, but never until the beginning of the co-educational college was banditry so rife. Most of the colleges are alike in this respect, but those that are not, are dull and unappreciated by the normal person. The banditry concerned herein is caused by the possible, but not probable nobler sex, the women of the campus. These bandits, fortunately or unfortunately for the college men, are not of the mercenary type. Their banditry consists of robbing the normal man about the campus of his right to liberty and piece of mind. What can a normal man do to protect himself against the pleasing face and form of this modern menace? Nothing! The old adage, 'Safety in numbers,' bows in defeat. Only the man who fights and runs away lives to fight another day, and who wants to fight? The technique of these bandits is remarkable in that it is simple and requires so little effort. Here is an example: A modern 'Calamity-Jane' walks along' a corridor to the exit of the building and spies her victim. She maneuvers skillfully and manag- es to meet her victim in the revolving door and now they go a1'ound together. Is it not very simple? The mercenary bandit gets her monetary reward, if she is fortunate. The bandit of this subject gets her victim's piece of mind much more easily and need not be so fortunate, if she be a normal woman. The only thing she lacks is the horse and pistol to be a modern Jesse James. Do not misunderstand please, my cause is not to prohibit this menace, but on the contrary to promote it. My slogan would be: The men-ace for more and better bandi- try. pagt ninety

THE TARKIANA. 1936 . ca gfme'-c C2664 man llltifea ci effez ome Dear Mom: I guess I will write you a few lines. I get along swell here. Some of the girls have smiled at me, and one or two even laughed, so I guess I am sure pretty popular. Dr. Collins, he's the president, got friendly with me in chapel the other day, and told me how I could be freshman president. I know you will sure be proud of me after the election comes off. Might even put my picture in them items that you write for the Sanburr.' Boy mom, you sure would be surprised at the things they got over here: they even got places inside the building where you can wash your hands, sure is a lot better than going out on the porch. But them places ain't nothing besides them showers. Better send me another bar of that kind of purple soap that they have at the Jim's Center. Gee, I guess maybe you had better send me that old razor of dad's right away, cause all the other guys use 'em. Yeh, we even have tablecloths and napkins in the kitchen every night. Boy it's just like when the preacher comes to call at home. Guess the English teacher sure does like me, she even writes notes to me on my papers, but don't tell anybody cause they would call me teacher's pet, cause I'm on the football team now, well almost anyway, I have been helping the coach with the water. Bill took me and him to the show last night. Sure did have a lot of fun there, it is one of them there new kind of pictures where you can even hear the people talk. I guess he and me will go again next week, he says he seen a lot of them kind before, but boy they sure are triculat- ed. That's the new word the doc told me when I first came here. Well I guess I better hit the hay as it's almost nine-thirty, and be- sides my feet are awful tired from wearin' them new shoes. Sure is lot different than goin' barefooted like we do out home. Don't forget to send my other shirt next week, this one is gettin' kind of dirty. -ELMER. page ninety-two 1.
