Danforth Leaves $1,725,000
The will of the late William H. Danforth, who gave a bequest for the construction of Danforth Chapel, disclosed that he made a stock bequest valued at $1,725,000 to the Danforth Foundation. The will was filed yesterday in probate court in St. Louis.
Danforth, board chairman of the Ralston Purina company, and his wife established the foundation in 1927 to aid college students particularly in their spiritual development.
Mr. Danforth died Dec. 24.
Irvin Youngberg, executive secretary of the University Endowment Association, said he did not know if the University would be included in the bequest. "I have no information on the matter, but I would guess we will not receive any of the money, because Danforth made a number of gifts to us when he was lived."
Former Student Gets Award
The Mademoiselle award of merit has been given to Dr. Doris Nadine Zeller, a graduate student in geology at the University from 1946 to 1948. She is one of 10 young women honored by the magazine for outstanding achievements in various fields.
Dr. Zeller and her husband, Dr. Edward Zeller, now are special research consultants with the Brazilian government in its exploration for petroleum in the Amazon basin. Both received their Ph.D. degrees under M. L. Thompson, professor of geology and present chairman of the geology department.

On Campus with Max Shulman
(Author of "Barefoot Boy With Check," etc.)
OH, FOR THE LIFE OF A NEWSPAPERMAN!
Look at the campus newspaper you are now holding. An ordinary object, you think? An everyday convenience? Something to be taken for granted?
Faugh, sirs and madams! Faugh, I say! Don't you know what prodigies of skill and labor and organization and art and science go into the making of your campus newspaper?
Come, I'll show you. I will take you to a typical office of a typical newspaper on a typical campus.
The editor—let's call him D. Fermin Bohorquez, a typical enough name-calls his staff together first thing in the morning. "All right, you guys," he says, lighting a Philip Morris, which, naturally, is the favorite cigarette of newspapermen, and of anybody else who knows a hawk from a handsaw, "All right, you guys," says D. Fermin, "this here ain't no ladies whist society, this here is a newspaper. So get out there and get the news. Get it first, get it quick, get it right! Ed, you cover the ag campus. Phil, you cover the school of mines. Wally, you cover home ec. Sam, you cover buildings and grounds. Ethel, you cover the men's gym. . . . All right, get going!"
... Ethel, you cover the men's arms.
With many a laugh and cheer, the reporters light up Philip Morrises, favorite cigarette of the young and agile, and dash away on their assignments.
D. Fermin retires to his office to smoke a Philip Morris and write a fearless editorial scolding the university for not buying patches for the worn-out elbows of the chess team.
On the rim of the copy desk three rewrite men—Tensing, Hillary, and Laverne—sit poised and expectant, waiting for the reporters to phone in their stories. They smoke Philip Morris, favorite cigarette of the poised and expectant. Tensing's phone rings first; it is Ed calling from the ag campus.
"Stop the presses!" cries Ed. "Got a scoop! Hunrath T. Sigafos, professor of curds and whey, has just sold his article The Romance of Butterfat to the Drovers and Poulterers Monthly."
On another phone Sam is calling from buildings and grounds. "Tear out the front page!" he cries. "Got an exclusive! Harold 'Pop' Wishnograd, superintendent of buildings and grounds, today announced the purchase of a new doormat for the vestibule of Burton Hall. The last doormat, it will be recalled, was eaten by a pledge named Norman Harringay for his Chi Psi initiation."
Meanwhile, elsewhere in the city room, Ganglia Questover, vivacious and ubiquitous gossip columnist, sits smoking a Philip Morris, favorite cigarette of the vivacious and ubiquitous, and typing out her chatty, informative tidbits: "Maureen Valgerholtz, popular Theta, announced her engagement last night to Webster Scuff, Oliver Jenkins, Cosmo Erskine, and Walter Penn Dowdy. Wedding dates have been set for June 9, June 24, July 5, and July 18 respectively. Good luck, Maureen! . . Irving 'Behemoth' Anselm, popular fullback, blew out 120 feet of esophagus yesterday while inflating a football. Good luck, Irving 'Behemoth'! . . Robin Kroveney, popular Deke last year, this year popular pfe, in the U. S. Army, writes friends that he has been convicted of deserting his post and will be executed on April 28. Good luck, Robin!"
And now, friends, we take our reluctant leave of the drama, the action, the tension, the glamor, the churning, the seething, the roiling, the sturm und drang of the wonderful world of journalism. Aloa, journalism, aloha! $ \textcircled{*} $Max Shulman, 1956
The makers of Philip Morris, who sponsor this column, have got some news for you too. It's today's new gentle Philip Morris in today's bright new package of red, white, and gold.
