Guinea Pig Stumps Ne ws-Hunting Sage By TED GOODWIN You can’t tell a thing about guinea pigs. Some of my best friends have been guinea pigs, but I still don’t understand them. Take for example the smooth looking little tan number down at Dr. Huestis’ mouse house. It looks just like a prominent frosh politician but just to show that one can never be sure, “it” turned out to be the grandma of them all. In the spring, a young man’s fancy lightly turns to what gui . nea pigs think about all win ter. Their big soulful eyes light up much as the veiled orbs of some conniving human. Some are crude, others suave, and others show at times an almost guinea pig intelligence. Resemblance These lowly individuals do the same inane antics that self-con scious frosh pull at the Side. One coy little spotted one was trip ping daintily on the wires, when a blushing buck lured her over to the water pan and grinned as she daintily drank and then stuck a straw in her mouth much like the homo sapiens model in a coke booth would a cigarette. Dr. Huestis and his students have observed that in many ways the guinea pig is more honest, more profound, and happier than those who study him. They have shut themselves up in a little world of their own away from the horrors of war, the classroom and house duties. They have even conditioned themselves to the roaring of the trains that shake the little house at all hours.

But the fe males had fled for, doing a crawl down the middle aisle, the vampires had vamoosed! The instructor [continued his diagramming.

Pianist Keeps Suite Jammed Templeton Leads Room With Clutter Of Music-Makers By MILDRED WILSON Aiec Templeton, who 'will ap pear in McArthur court next Tuesday evening, is never with out musical instruments within easy reach. In his suite of rooms he has four, victrolas, three radios, several recording ma chines, an antique Chinese bell, castanets, rhumba gourds and rhumba sticks, an old zither, a concert grand piano, and nearly thirty music boxes. Keeping his friends laughing with his quick wit is one of ihe blind artist’s moat interesting pastimes. One amusing descrip tion of an unspirited, rendition of the Hungarian. Rhapsody which he had just heard was “Liszt less.” Carrying his love fqr. words, as well as music, a hit. further, Templeton often invents pew. words to express sense particular feeling. In the same way he is prone to improvise on the piano, so is he always eager to invent a new “pixie” word. One of his prize possessions is an unusual “repeater” watch. By sliding a lever on the side, three chimes of different tones sound the quarter, half and threc-auar ter hour mark. Still another chime sounds the minute within the five-minute period, thus giv ing him the time to the exact minute. He just can’t keep away from his first love—music.
