The delegates also recommen ded an end to draft deferments for students in orr r that all men will serve a period of na tional service. Eberly said the option of work ing in nonmilitary activities could provide an alternative for persons with moral or other ob jections to military service and could provide the federal govern ment with a manpower pool for its growing number of social pro grams.

I refer, of course, to I’rexy. (It is interesting to note that college presidents are al ways called “Proxy.” Similarly, trustees are always called “Trixie.” Associate professors are always called "Axy-Pixy.” Bursars are called “Foxy-Woxy.” Students are called "Algae.”) But I digress. We were speaking of Proxy, a personage at once august and pathetic. Why pathetic? Well, sir, con sider how I’rexy spends his flays, lie is busy, busy, busy. He talks to deans, he talks to professors, he talks to trus tees, he talks to alumni, in fact, he talks to everybody ex cept the one group who could lift his heart and rally his spirits. 1 mean, of course, the appealingest. endearingest, winsomest group in the entire college—delightful you, the students. It is I’rexy’s sad fate to be forever a stranger to your laughing, golden selves. He can only gaze wistfully out the window of his big w hite house on the nill and watch you at your games and sports and yearn with all his tormented heart to bask in your warmth. But how? It would hardly be fitting for I’rexy to appear one dav at the Union, clad in an old rowing blazer, and cry gaily, "Heigh-ho, chajc,! Who's for sculling?” No, friends, Prexy can’t get to you. It is up to you to get to him. Call on him at home. Just drop in unannounced. He will naturally be a little shy at first, so you mast put him at his ease. Shout, “Howdy-doody, sir! 1 have come to bring a little sunshine into your drear and blighted life!” Then yank his necktie out of his vest and scamper goatlike around him until he is laughing merrily along with you. Then hand him a package and say, "A little gift for you, sir.” “For me?” he will say, lowering his lids. "You shouldn’t have.” “Yes, I should,” you will say, "because this is a pack of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, and whenever I think of Personna Super Stainless Steel Blades, 1 think of you.” “Why, hey?" he will ask curiously. "Because, sir,” you will say, "though you are no longer a young blade, still you gleam and function. Full though you are of years and lumps, rheumy though your endocrine* and flaccid your hamstrings, still you remain sharp, inci sive, efficacious.” “Thank you,” he will say, sobbing. “So it is with Personna,” you will continue. "Naturally you expect a brand-new blade to give a close, speedy shave. But how about a blade that's had hard and frequent use? Do you still expect a close, speedy shave? Well, sir, if it’s a Personna, that’s what you’ll get. Because, sir, like you, sir, Personna is no flash-in-the-pan. Like vou, sir, Personna abides.” He will clasp your hand then, not trusting himself to speak. "But away with gloom!” you will cry jollily. "For I have still more good news to tell you of Personna!” ‘‘How is that possible?” he will say. "Hearken to me,” you will say. "Personna, in all its en during splendor, is available not only in Double Kdge st vie but also in Injector style!” He will join you then in the Personna rouser, and then he will bring you a steaming cup of cocoa with a marsh mallow on top. Then you will say, “Good-bye, sir. I will re turn soon again to brighten your (lank, miasmic life.” Please do,” he will say. "But next time, if you can pos sibly manage it, try not to come at four in the morning.” ^ C 1 M*X ShulU ull Prexy and undergrad, late a rut soon, fair treat her and foul— the perfect sharing companion to Personna ' Blades is Burma Share.' It comes in regular and mt nthol; it soaks rings around any other lather. Hr kind to ytotr kisser; try Personna and Burma Share.
