A Rose By Any Other Name . . . Makes 'Gen With The Pen' Scream
"Out, out, damn name!" says the harried possessor of the name, Geneva hakespeare, College freshman. "The Geneva part is all right; it's the hakespeare that envolves difficulties."
'People are always asking me to give out with the mad scene from Macbeth,' the balcony scene from 'Romeo and Juliet,' or Hamlet's speech. They have the miss. $ \textcircled{4} $
"Worst of all, my associates refer to me as 'The Bard', 'The Spear haker', or 'Gen with the Pen.' And it's all so unfair when I'm not even related to the great dramatist."
the idea that I know all the famous names from 'To be or not to be'—that is the question . . .' to 'All the world's a stage . . .'"
English students give Geneva the most difficulty—those who are assigned such tasty morsels as 'King Lear' or 'King Henry' the Fifth, written in the idiom of the 1600's. Resentment at William Shakespeare is perhaps justified, but it is hardly air to Geneva.
I realize pupils have a bone to
pick with the Bard, but they shouldn't take their ire on out me. There isn't a single twig named 'William' on our family tree."
A Kansas Citian (Mo.), Geneva entered the College in September, "I have not participated in many activities," she explained, "getting adjusted has claimed my attention."
As for a major, she has not decided, but favors biological science. "One thing is certain. I will not be a play-wright. Too many people have already asked me to many times when my first play is coming out."
What's in a name?
Geneva Shakespeare will tell you. "Plenity of woe."

The Chemistry department's course in Food Analysis is again being taught this semester, with an enrollment of nine students, Henry Werner, instructor in the course and dean of student affairs, announced today.
'Food Analysis' Taught Again
In addition to instructing chemistry students in food analysis, the University's food laboratory has served the State Board of Health since 1912, in making chemical tests of any new drug or medicine, food and water samples, and any product which may be adulterated in violation of the pure food and drug laws.
Dean Werner pointed out that course procedure has varied little, and follows a rigid pattern, largely bause most of the lab work must often be recorded as legal testimony in criminal cases in the state. Such evidence is submitted to the Official Association of Agricultural Chemists.

If you can buy a suit and hat you wanted Emerging all unruffled from the fray While others stagger homeward empty-handed From tramping miles of aisles all day;
If you are always lucky in your bargains, And never have regrets o'er what you spend, It's evident you're a canny buyer,
AND WHAT IS MORE, YOU READ OUR ADS MY FRIENDS.
