From All Sides By MILDRED WILSON A special “tap day’’ edition of the Pitt News which appeared re cently was composed entirely of news concerning students tapped by various honoraries—and the appointment of positions on the campus publications and in ac tivities. Containing eight pages of tap day sidelights, including the names and brief sketches of all tappees, the issue was the first of its kind ever attempted at Pitt. Also included in the paper was the announcement of the senior queen and her main attendant. Some of the honoraries which tapped students were Mortar Board, ODK (senior men), Cwens, Druids, Xylons, and Spoons. —The Pitt News. * * * Ode to a Coking Date A long tall glass half-filled with ice, A beautiful girl, this will suffice, To fill a morning hour with cheer, And still those vulgar thoughts of beer. Political deals, the latest gossip All occur while people slop-up, Cherry, lime and lemon cokes, * And catch up on the latest jokes. —The Silver and Gold. * * * A coed at the University of Minnesota was sitting at a table in the post office one day writing a letter to her boy friend. So ab sorbed was she that she didn’t notice it when her so-called friends left. A little later a boy came up and asked her where he could get a date. “How should I know?” she asked a bit sharply. “I saw your sign and thought you’d know if anybody would,” was his hurt reply. She looked down and saw a little card, neatly printed in lip stick which read: ALL-U DATE BUREAU. For a pleasant holiday try NEL SCOTT AUTO PARK, with Its cozy modern equipped apart ments and cottages, and its famous assembly hall and kit chen, three blocks from the ocean.

Side Show (Continued from page four) a sergeant’s rating a little later on. After All! Joe wrote to Marie and told her he wouldn’t see her for a few months, he’d be busy. After all, if she loved him she would want him to get ahead. Well, Marie had good inten tions, but she got bored so easily. She began going with another fellow. Nothing serious, you know', just a nice boy who kept her from getting morbid. Two wreeks ago I got a letter from Joe. He told me he would be coming through town Tues day, that’s yesterday, on one of those little blitz-buggies, bound south for maneuvers. He asked me to keep Marie company, standing on the Anchorage ve randah waiting for him. He had made arrangements with his driver to turn off for a few min utes so he could see her. I wrote back I’d be glad to, al though it meant cutting a few classes. But it turned out I didn’t have to cut the classes. None of the buggies turned off at the Anchor age. Marie was having a coke there wuth the other fellow. She’s engaged to him. ■ 1 "■ .--Ul Casual Comfort in Lawn Furniture also Tables and Swings $1.50 to $2.25 JOHNSON FURNITURE COMPANY 649 AYillamette Phone 1188 Campus Calendar Sigma Delta Chi will meet at 4 p.m. in Room 104 journalism.
