Good Taste j Misplaced | SnuMMiniwiiHiimmtiiiiiHiuitiuiimiiiiiiiiiiuiciiitiiiiiHiiiiHHHHHiiiiiiiuniiiimimiip. By MARY ANN C AMPBELL One blonde coed put in a real ly efferent New Year’s eve. She lives on the highway into town, and was all alone on the evening of tide last day of December. She wc-.'i idly gazing out of the win dow and suddenly saw two elderly people get knocked down by a speeding car. She rushed out of the house, and found that the woman had a hole in the back of her head which was bleeding considerably. The man was very badly cut, too, so she dashed back and called an ambulance. •Xhe ambulance departed, and she settled down again to her bod-:. This time she looked up in -time to see two cars meet headlong. Again she called the ambulance, and the man on the other end of the phone asked if she wasn’t the person who had called before. Tive tim'd accident was a mue late A car, whose driver seemed slightly confused about the dif ference between the street and the .sidewalk, knocked down a sign reading “Speed Limit, 35 miles.*’ Well, you can’t say the eve meg was monotonous! * * * O -e morning a gal was wish ing she had some beads that would look well on her beige sweater . . . and, SURPRISE! iter roommate’s looked marvel ous! When she saw the room mate at breakfast, she was sur prised to hear her say, “What do you know! I've got some beads exactly like that!" L i.ter, the roommate was ac costed by a sister who observed, “At last I know whom you're living with. I recognized her by yoi v beads.” 'Then there was the girl who bad two b' k-'S of powder . . . one labeled “Dawn’’ and the other “Dusk." She was delighted at first, but now feels they are slightly confusing. She put on “Dusk" when she went to her S o’clock, naturally, and had a hor rible scramble after her 0 o’clock, ' 1 • , ---- Manly B. Gtutjjzdi&l. '9 Hove. My Hoorn.’ By MARTY BEARD ’S not a closet . . . ’s not a Coco Cola plant ... 's not a psy chopathic ward. Just Wit’s End. That's what we call our room. Stumble in. Wait a minute and I'll kick those coke bottles out of the way. Roommate number 1 has been practicing bowling. She’s quite athletic, y’know, so don’t be alarmed at the dents in the wall; she uses it for a back board to practice her tennis shots. Why don’t we have a rug? Well, she says the bare hardwood is much better to practice basket ball on . . . and she shoots the balls into lamp shades. Clever, isn’t she. Too Loud? Ts the phonograph too loud for you? That record is “Quiet Please.” Roommate number 2 sits in a trance for hours and we bring her meals to her. She’s mad about drums. Sometimes we think she’s having an epileptic fit, but that’s just the way drum records affect her. Her favorite record is “That Local Yokel Done Drummed Up My Jitter-Bugs.” Do sit down. But you’ll have to pick up the chair that Room mate number 3 knocked over last time she flew out of the room. An activity girl be she, and she thrives on power pills. Every morning she does her homework for track trying to make her 8 o’clocks. Don’t Be Scared Don’t be frightened when you see her. She always collapses just before she gets to the door, and then we drag her in and put her under the bed. We respect her talent, though because she’s the first person we’ve ever seen who can comb her hair, brush her teeth, tjipe a theme and take a no-doze tablet all at the same time. Be careful what you say to when she had to dash home and put on “Dawn” before she went to her 10 o’clock! The grapevine has it that Ray Dickson and the whole cast of the drama department’s next play, "The Whole Town’s Talk ing,” are composing a new song, especially for the show.

That record? Oh, it's still “Quiet Please.” Our other roommate Is a Char acter. We get worried about her at times but try to keep on help ing her. As I always say, don’t give up the ship and you’ll never be overboard (over-bored). Some times she thinks she’s an anti aircraft gun and goes around ack-ack-acking. And then she thinks she’s an air-raid siren be cause she feels badly about not being any other kind of siren. She spends all her spare time working on some kind of a new formula for making bootleg gaso line out of rubber, sugar, and coffee. Her Face . . . We’ve forgotten what her face looks like because her bangs have gotten so long; every time she takes a step we all hold our breath for fear she’ll trip over them. All those pictures of zoot suiters on the wall belong to her. She's mad for a glad plaid. And her vocabulary consists of “How about that?” That record? It’s STILL “Quiet Please.” Couldn’t I interest you in a chummy game of tiddly-winks or Hell? Oh, you have to leave. Do come visit us again. We are ap pearing at the Museum of Natur al History next Friday, Saturday and Sunday from 3 o’clock ’til 6 o’clock.
