Education Awaits Freshmen on
Walls of Chow Hall Corridors
By victor Fryer
A factor of great importance
that has been overlooked by advo
cates of the "DuShane Plan,” is
the educational benefits freshman
men will have waiting in the chow
lines at the veterans’ cafeteria.
Penciled (or inked) along the
wall of the long corridor to the
cafeteria entrance are perhaps
some of the choicest pieces of art
and literature outside a museum
or library.
For instance, there is the state
ment, “Jack is a yuk.” Where can
be found a more profound and ab
solute thought ? In addition, one
soon learns that “Ryan is also a
yuk,” as are “Clark” and "Chuck.”
The knowledge that “Mac is a
whist,” and that “Mack (not the
same fellow, I trust) is a smick
smick,” is also recorded for the
benefit of the new student or other
interested parties.
One learns, also, that enrolled in
the tWversity are various
“whists,” “smuks,” “snarfs,”
“Whiffermites,” and other odd
creatures. One person has gone so
far as to state, and I quote, “We’re,
except me, all smuks.” Another
has disagreed with him insofar as
to say, “I am a yuk.”
And the fact, unknown to most,
even those familiar with the met
ric system, that 1000 roys equal
one kilroy, should be a boon to
chem and math students.
Not to be outdone by the phil
osophers and scientists, the artists
have been busy decorating the wall
with their individual bits of art.
Women are a popular subject (of
art), most of the drawings being
of the Esquire type. One, a Dali
like drawing of what presumably
could be a witch, is rather inappro
priately labeled “Betty Coed.”
Men were not forgotten by the
artists. A huge muscle-bound ath
lete, and an ROTC student in full
dress uniform with “railroad
tracks” (Captain’s bars to you ci
vilians) on his shoulders vied for
honors for the largest pictures,
while the Fearless-Fosdick type
seemed most popular. One surreal
istic piece was titled simply “Ther
man thmoking a fag.”
Miscellaneous pieces include a
skull and crossbones, several
“schmoes,” and a decrepit car
loaded with students, heading “to
Corvallis (Waldo hall).”
Various tic-tac-toe games and
geometric drawings attest to the 1
fact that perhaps a few that pass
through these lines are bored with
the educational opportunities of
fered them. But it seems obvious
that such an important aspect of
education as this should be utilized
to its fullest extent. The freshmen
should live in the dorms the first
year in order that they may get
their education in its fullest extent
and meaning.
