Not to be pessimistic BUT
we’d be willing to wager the
iigortality in roommate friend
ships is going to be terrifically
high the first of this term. The
strain of being cooped up with
one (or three) persons for three
months is not to be taken with
out a few tongue lashings or eye
scratchings. Up North, so we are
informed, they call it "cabin fe
ver."
On top of that there won’t be
the respite of canoeing on the
millrace—even if there happened
to be an undrafted male avail
able. Suppose you could go mud
bathing with the girls. What a lot
of fun. Ugh.
We could say something about
Sigma Delta Chi pledge goonies.
All tin-soldiered and wooden
gunned up in advertisement of
their big day Friday.
Saw a girl in the libe the other
day with an unusual hair-do. Lit
tle blossoms of quince pinned
down in the curls at the back of
her tresses—which were black.
Nice . . . Also saw a floppy-eared
red dog tear across the campus
and crash head-long into a quite
obvious pine tree. The poor pup
looked so bewildered.

Society Goes Military
To Honor MacArthur
By LOIS HULSER
Sigma Delta Chi is heralding ye olde spring term with the first
campus dance of the term in honor of General MacArthur Friday
evening in the Igloo. Jim Bronson and Jerry Lakefish have penned
what, they say, is a masterpiece for spring term varieties to be
presented at a 45-minute intermission at the journalistic honorary’s
informal dance. Carolyn Holmes, campus social chairman, says short
silks will be the fashion note of the evening. Art Holman will be
maestro.
Saturday evening students from
six co-ops are beginning the term
with a skating party at the ice
rink. Organizations participating
include Highland house, Hilyard
house, University house, Canard
club, Campbell co-op and Kirk
wood co-op.
Since sorority row Is busy this
week with rushing which began
Tuesday and will continue until
Saturday, only four desserts are
scheduled for the week. Canard
club is having dessert with Uni
versity house, Sigma Phi Epsi
lon, Hendricics hall; Phi Gamma
Delta, Alpha Gamma Delta and
Sigma Chi-preference.
boatmen had nothing on Univer
sity students whose obligation it
was to wait in the auto check
line registration day. Poor Ruby
Jackson fainted flat away. Very
gruesome and awful is her story
of being caught in the mass of
towering registrants. And they
talk about the Inquisition. . . .

Sue dreamed of a knight on a
charger white,
But she married Jim next door.
She wanted a man, both brave
and bright,
She dreamed of a knight on a
charger white,
And Jim was an awful bore. . . .
