Werner Wants To Sell Paint-
Uncle Jimmy Is Daubed Again
For the umpteenth time, the statue of Uncle Jimmy Green was painted. This time it was Friday night. Red paint was poured over Jimmy's head and shoulders. A little white paint was splattered on the front of the figures. The red paint can was still on the head of the student figure Saturday morning.
Henry Werner, dean of student affairs, could give no reason for the painting.
"It seems to me there was no point in painting him this time," he
said. "Perhaps we should rent a pasture outside of town and erect a statue for would-be painters to daub. We might even be able to make a little money by selling them the paint."
"If various groups are feuding, we could let them fight it out. Of course, they would have to sign a contract releasing the University of all responsibility."
In disgust, he likened the painters to persons who throw eggs in an electric fan or eat live goldfish.

Smith Tells 'Y's Of Challenges
"The real challenge to humanity is not a challenge of higher education or of religion, for they are tied-in together, but a balance of the two." George Baxter Smith, Dean of the School of Education, told the YW-YM members at the last of the Y sponsored religious seminars.
"The challenge in any educational system is a development of a working philosophy of life. A working philosophy of education is the final goal for a general educational background. The real challenge to an educational program today, comes from the physicist who developed the atom bomb in finding a development for a social goal.
"Now our beliefs are about the same as in olden times. Higher education in this country comes back to one goal: civic, social and moral. All leaders in state, education, and churches come out with about the same objective. Basically the civic, social and moral approach."
Even Water Pump Goes On Strike
Chicago—(UP)—Everything was on strike except bad luck, said residents of an unincorporated community near the city limits of Chicago.
First a strike shut down the telephone service to the community, Leyden Gardens. Then their local bus company drivers went on a strike.
Finally their water supply went on a sit-down strike at the bottom of the town's only well. The town pump broke down.
The 84 families in the neighborhood had to carry water from nearby communities in jars, cans and dish pans until its neighbor Franklin Park, permitted Leyden Gardens to tap its water supply.
