| Attempting to explain in pres
ent-day double talk Homer's story
of Ulysses. Dr. Ernest suggested to
his class in introduction to litera
ture that Ulysses gave Penelope
i “the gate.”
Since oft-used the “gate” is
\ nearly worn off its hinges, the \
students argued that a more ap- !
propriate expression could be used.
Finally from the back of the i
room, a small voice came through
with the poetic idea in jive-talk: i
[That Ulysses, the square, told
Penelope it was the K.O. and S.O.'d.
Translated: He “shoved off” at
the “kiss-off,” or he “dropped
her” and “hit the road.”

first time this fall. The total in- |
crease over last year is four.
It is noteworthy that of the total
of 21 graduate students and re
search assistants, only eight re
ceived their bachelor's degree at I
the University. This is in keeping!
with a policy to exchange assist
ants with other schools as much as
possible.
