j Ctghc CigictvvjS x z JSL- HERE AND THERE It seems to be a lad willi llic Tiielas to bust out of school and tlic-ii liaiiK around. 11 tlie - don ' l bu-;! out I hemsclvcs they bust out someone else. For example, Stella and Rick. Then there is Murrell, who has been here three years and has attended as many classes. Gladys Love withdrew gladly, and remained to amuse herself as best she rould and the rest of us a great deal. Such stunts as smoking in the Maverick are cute, no doubl , but unneces- siiry. We ' ll tell the world that little Love is wild, and so will she. Several years ago the Phi Gams were bitten by the same bug which has slimg the Phi Dells with the ambition to run the school. Disaster followed and Phi Gamma Delta has not yet recovered from the slump. . word to the politicians. Speaking of good taste — Bobbie gave Mittie a negligee for Christmas. The beautN- contest was a farce. Harvey Eagleson got a vote; Marion . ery voted for P ' rancis, but Francis did not vote for Marion. Nannie Bennett voted for herself, and Melba Collins did likewise, but as theirs was not the deciding vote, they failed to break into the book other than here. Little Pee Wee Caraway recently achieved prominence here through getting himself Hown over by the Shenan- doah in its cross-country flight. Matt Newell sometimes wears a flower in his buttonhole. This is because it will not stay in his hair. We just fell out of the chair while writing this, laughing at the thought of a couple of Sigma Nu ' s talking to each other as man to man. -After a date with Alonzo one thinks philosophically- that the female of the species is most deadly on the kale. THE GRIND POPULARITY CONTEST Most Versatile Man Homer Toland wins easily; any one who can succeed in getting the whole university down on him is indeed versatile. Least Assuming Girl Franchell Roberts. She will force entrance into any frat house any time or date. Bob iolette. Most Bashful Boy The Girl With the Prettiest Figure Lois Fender. (Chosen liy a committee from the . iislin Retail Butchers ' Association.) MOST AWKWARD GIRL 1 J ilg : = nF- lD o[:ES

gh wg l£ 25l 2 MINUTES OF FRATERNITY MEETINGS Acacia The meeting opened formally, the brothers filing in and taking their seats in alphabetical order. Every man wore his apron, but Brother Robinson was sent from meeting for having tobacco juice on his. Brother Lehmann made a motion that the chapter organize a drumcorps after the manner of the Shriners. Passed. Brother Fenley made a motion that an other dance be given to make up for the one accidentally given on a holiday when sixteen invitees were out of town. Meeting adjourned for the weekly apron washing. Kappa Alpha Meeting opened after eight of the brothers had taken a cold tub to bring them too a bit. Brother Mitchell said it was a damned shame they couldn ' t have any regular meetings any more on account of all the drinking going on. Brother Pemberton said Brother Mitchell was a bad name, as he had seen him drink too. Brother Mitchell said Brother Pemberton was another bad name. Brother Smith asked that all the ofTicers be sober ne.xt Wednesday as all this year ' s pledges were to be initiated then. He urged that the ineligible initiates quit showing their pins to the girls, as it was being noised about school that subrosa initiation was going on. A committee was appointed to rent another house for next year. Another committee was appointed to try to get the telephone back in. It was decided to pledge an electrical engineer next year who could work the light meter. Meeting adjourned. Theta XI Meeting opened with kow-tow to Alec Claire. Brother Bryam asked the brothers to please leave his socks alone as he had now started wearing them around the house as well as at school. Brother Bailey arose and said it was a damned lie, and that Brother Bryam still went barefoot around the house. The brothers were urged by the president to keep up the good work with Frances Wells, as it was bringing them into the social limelight. Meeting adjourned for slide rule practice. Chi Phi Meeting opened with song Give Us Our Swede Again Just for This Year! After the sobs had died down Brother Eidman said he thought all this worship of Swede was pish-posh as he rated as much as Swede ever did, even without being an athlete. He then showed the chapter his muscle. Brother Bacon then. arose and asked if some of the law students couldn ' t find a way to prevent the house from being raided so much. Brother Pressler arose and answered that the best way would be to keep corn liquor and Jack King out of the house. Brother Hastings said he ' d rather see the house raided as he always got his stuff out in time anyway. Brother Mueller then made his report of profits from the German Club and suggested that the house be refurnished with the money. After some argument over where Brother Mueller got his Ford, the meeting adjourned so the boys could get over and borrow some money from B. B. Matthews before he left. V Alpha Tau Omega Meeting barely opened. Brother Fellbaum gave a short talk on scholarship, which was followed by a shorter one from Brother Jones. Brother Edwards announced that he was sore because the boys did not laugh at him as much as at Stooky Allen, who isn ' t even a brother. Brother Thompson promised that the chapter would do better in the future. Brother Keith then challenged any of the brothers to a fight, and everyone was frightened until Brother Keith laughed and said he was just joking. Brother Swampy Thompson displayed a map showing the route taken by Brother Stelfox with his shipments from Cuba. He also announced that Brother Stelfox would be in Thurs- day morning with a large shipment. Brother Steinhagen reported for the finance committee that at the rapid rate of payment our house should be clear of debt in 1984. Meeting adjourned with everybody happy. Page 384
