Boy, What A Guy Learns At K.U.
Sum Total Is Some Total
University students learn some strange things.
Takes Egbert Wuffell, for instance Egbert was an average kid—grade school, high school. Then he was ready to come to college.
That was back in 1941, when his pursuit of higher learning was interrupted by a slight military incident in some four years' length. Egbert Wuffall was a Ffe.
Now, at K.U. Egbert no longer is a "rush resh" boy. He is serious and intent. He appreciates college.
As he neers the end of his first semester he is even more serious. He has settled down and written for posterity a long list of things he has learned. The sum total follows:
ONE. Henry VIII had the right idea. Just cut off their heads and cut in for a late model.
History
TWO. Queen Elizabeth had ideas,
ooo. As well as red hair.
Literature
ONE. Amy Lowell smoked cigars.
TWO. For all his petticoat chasing, Tolstoy was a pretty wise old boy.
ONE. Boy rats will cross a hot grill to get to food, but they won't do it to get to girl rats. (Conclusion—boy rats are smarter than some boy boys.)
Psychology
ONE. Japan no longer has the largest wooden building in the world as the textbook says. (Egbert is sure of this. He helped blow it up.)
TWO. A professor of abnormal psychology can become very touchy when he is called an abnormal psychologist.
Geography
A Jayhawker is engraved on one side of the ring, and the university seal on the other. These figures are encircled by sunflowers.
TWO. It is farther from Frank Strong hall to the library on a cold windy Monday morning than from San Francisco to Honolulu.
Spanish
ONE. Como esta usted. Muy bien,
gracias, v usted.
cion 'Coffee' Today

TWO. Dame un beso.
THREE. Various other colorful end useful phrases.
Zoology
The American Legion will have an informal "coffee" for all campus veterans at 4 p.m. today in the auditorium of Frank强兴 hall.
ONE. Dinosaurs had more brains in their tails than in their heads.
TWO. Bed bugs are not dirty,
simply infuriating.
Seniors Approve K.U. Ring Design
ser theater. The ring is not designed specifically for this year's senior class, but will be appropriate also for alumni and future graduates, with only a change in the graduation date.
Miscellaneous
TWO. Standard equipment for a college picnic consists of one girl, one blanket, and (for appearances sake) one stick of gun.
ONE. A good sized brief case will hold at least two quarts, if the milk bottles are of an odd shape.
A University ring will be available to graduates in about two months. The design for the ring was approved by the senior class Wednesday at a special meeting in Fraser theater.
THREE. You have to watch professors carefully. Some of them pretend they are human just to throw you off guard.
ONE. "Nationalism" is not a nice word. Patriotism is much more acceptable.
CLUGE Glen Sewell, business senior, who is chairman of the ring committee, explained that most universities have such a ring, and that numerous requests have been received from alumni for a K.U. ring by the alumni association.
Political Science
End Egbert's list. Of course he still has three and a half years of eligibility under the G.I. Bill.
