JOKE .VO CHESTNUT BUT
MANAGER DEAN GETS HIS
Manager Fritz Dean had a chestnut
last week for breakfast. Now as it
happens, Fritz’s breakfast hour conies
during the ten o'clock class and fritz
generously divided his chestnut with two
fellow students sitting beside him. The
professor thought they were chewing
gum and referred to them as- the "great
chewing triumvirate.”
"It's a chestnut,” said Fritz in explan
ation. "What,” said the professor, “you
will call my jokes chestnuts, will you?
You’d better get a blue card. Your
grades are below ‘E' anyway. Get out
of this class and spend your time on
something else so a? not to think out of
, i college. That's my advice.”
It was useless to explain. In vain did
i Fritz hold up the piece of chestnut. The
, professor was mad and refused to see
things in their true light. Fritz says it
l is the first funny chestnut he ever heard.

hundred dollars a month before he ev
en made good. Mullen has decided to
stay out of basketball so as not to take
any chances of getting hurt.
