Gabby Journalist 'Gets Herself Told' When She Tries Curious Approach
Bv MONA MILLIKAN
That guy's going to be plenty surprised to read this story and find out his name's been left out and that he really was mistaken about the whole thing being an interview.
nshaw/n
It happened one afternoon when I wanted a cup of coffee, some brownies, and a little relaxation after class and stopped off in the Hawk's Nest to obtain same.
Are you men from Buildings and Grounds or some construction company? "Buildings and Grounds."
Most of the booths were occupied and I don't like to sit at the tables, so I maneuvered my way with books and food in hand to a booth near where these two men were working on the register.
They had it uncovered and were screwing things and had wrenches and other tools around. Being very unmechanical-minded, I was both interested and desirous of learning something so started asking questions.
A short pause while they conferred on what to do next. Then one of them pulled out small, L-shaped objects to work with.
What are you doing? "Oh, this heats all the time whether it's turned on or off."
What are those? "Allen wrenches.'
What are those? "Allen wrenches."
Are they for you? "To use on Allen screws."
This squelched me for a few minutes and I sipped my coffee and
"Steam heat."
gathered myself for another attack.
What department of Buildings and Grounds are you from?
Rather despairing of igniting a spark of interest by now, I tried another tack.
What are you in it, I mean what's your position?
How many departments are there? "Land, I'd have to count 'em up—carpentry, plumbing, steam heat, gardening—lots of 'em."
"We're short right now. Five men short. We used to have 10, now we only have five."
How many men do you have in yours?
He must have decided it was his turn for he started questioning me as he took time out for a cup of coffee
"Oh, they make time. They come in between classes and some of 'em study in here."
How do all these students have time to sit in here?
Well, there's always as many here at class time as any other time. They kept us out of here all morning. Where you from?
It's Phi Gamma Delta vs. Beam Today For Intramural Laurels
Either Phi Gamma Delta or Jim Beam will reign as "Hill Champs" after today when they clash in the final "A" playoff game at 4 p.m.
Passes from Jim Potts to Bill Michener and Joe Terrill put Phi Gam into an early lead, and sterling defense work maintained their lead.
Phi Gam won the championship of the fraternity "A" leagues by its victory Sunday afternoon over Beta Theta Pi 13-2, and Jim Beam became Independent champion blanking Jolliffe hall 13-0 at the same time.
Two Beta drives for a TD in the last quarter fizzled. The first was stopped by Bill Michener's interception of a long Beta pass. Hard rushing by the Phi Gam line blocked three of four attempted Beta passes during the Beta's last chance.
Gil Reich and company, otherwise known as the Jim Beam team, successfully stifled a budding Jolliffe hall drive in the closing minutes of their game to win 13-0.
Ned Wilson saved Beta from a whitewashing by tagging Jim Potts in the end zone for a safety.
Besides passing to Bill Porter and Odd Williams for Jim Beam's two touchdowns, Reich starred at safety position for the winners throughout the game, several times being the
last man between Jolliffe and paydirt.
A series of completed long passes almost netted Jollife a score in the final minutes, but they lost the ball on downs.
"B" division "Hill Champs" will be decided in a game today between Phi Gamma Delta "B" and Oread hall.
The Phi Gam's assured themselves a place in the playoffs Saturday morning by downing a plucky Phi Delta Theta squad, 14-7. Bill Blair tossed scoring passes to Carl Schutz and John Bunten for the winners.

Sugar Bowl Sponsors A Hack Plan To Ban Post-Season Tilts
"A" Playoff Final-4 p.m.
Phi Gamma Data, vs. Jim Beam
Friday, Nov. 23 at 10 a.m.
Coach Jim Tatum signed the contract yesterday for his Maryland team to play Tennessee in the Sugar Bowl. Tatum said he saw no reason for the talk about a possible Southern conference squabble over the university's acceptance.
Back to work for him and it was my chance again.
2. "From the date of their origin, the four major bowls have had official approval of conferences governing collegiate athletics in their locale.
New Orleans—(U.P.)–Mid-Winter Sports association officials denounced efforts to outlaw post-sensor football games today and defended their own Sugar Bowl, which would have to go out of business if the National Collegiate Athletic association bans the contests.
3. "The four major bowls have been approved by the National Collegiate Athletic Association and are regulated under provisions set forth in the NCAA constitution.
"B" Playoff Final -4 p.m.
Phi Gamma Delay vs. Oread hall
Some of the points raised by the association in defense of behalf:
in any way done anything harmful to any educational institution, football players, or the game itself.
association in defense of bowls:
1. "The four major (Rose, Sugar,
Cotton, Orange) post-season games
have been in existence for 18 or
more years. In that time none has
4. "The four major bowls have always been handled by football officials selected by the conferences from which the teams have come.
Are you on call or do you have a regular schedule?
A five-page statement, issued by sponsors of the non-profit Sugar Bowl, said opponents of the post-season games do not recognize the benefits to players, their schools and millions of fans.
Do you have heavy work some seasons of the year such as now?
5. "In the past 18 years, the football fans of America, through the sponsors of the four major bowls, have contributed more than $10,-000,000 to participating schools.
6. "All of the four major bowls are civic, non-profit organizations; collegiate in concept and conduct; free of any taint of professionalism."
"It's all on calls."
"This time of year we have lots of calls for maintenance. Other times, especially during the summer, we install new equipment. This summer we had work in the art museum and faculty club among others. We're always two or three months behind. Got plenty to do."
Now he volunteered some information with a sly grin. "I've been here 25 years—started at the power plant." And, then, as he got ready to leave, he took over the questioning again.
Is this your first year?
What's your major?
"No, I'm a senior."
"Journalism."
"I thought so," he exclaimed triumphantly. "You ask too many questions." Over-riding my protests, he continued, "I had you pegged from the time you came in. Always at the first of the year these new students go around to all the departments asking questions."
With that, my friend took himself, his self-satisfied smirk and his partner off to some other job.
So, my attempt to show sincere interest in what other people do for a living ended in failure.
