Dimout Brings Down Victory "V"
A year ago Christmas employees of the operations and maintenance office at Louisiana State University, Eaton Rouge, La., placed an electrically lighted "V" for victory sign in a prominent position atop their Memorial tower. Now, less than a year later, in compliance with a request of the Office of Civilian Defense, the employees are tearing down the symbolic "V." Dimout regulations ruled out lighting of the sign. War Stumps Go Dancing
University of Wisconsin students and faculty members last week gave 600 pints of blood for American armed forces to the Red Cross Mobile Blood Unit. In addition to the 600 blood donors more student volunteers have been put on the waiting list for future donations.

Sooners Defend Yale Song
War has affected a lot of things on its campus, but the University of Oklahoma still clings to Yale University's song, "Boola Boola," which it has renamed "Boomer Sooner." When President Joseph A. Brandt went to Oklahoma last fall from Princeton, where he directed the Princeton Press, he attempted to sound out opinion on changing from "Boomer Sooner" to a new, yet-unwritten tune. By way of an unfavorable response students began to sing "Boomer Sooner" in their rooming houses after dinner instead of eating their desserts and drinking coffee. The sports editor of the student newspaper even came to the rescue of the song by defending it in his personal column.
