Those Poor Men Again ... BUT NOT FOR MALES
Times are such that men students are inclined to stand aside and let those things come to pass which have no future in them. Hence, a new situation:
We can count on one finger the number of years that have passed since we males could come out in a pair of grassy-green tweeds and feel right at home. Some males could. It hasn't been so terribly long since the brightest socks were too dull and uninterested to attract attention."
"Them was the days" when you either had hue or you didn't.
Now we copy the army and wear the nearest thing to Khaki, and call it covert. This stuff covers a multitude of shades, gabardines, and men. All we hear is covert. No tweeds of the green shade nor silk ties that have that one-tie-tie attitude. When we dare to veer to left or right of dame fashion we bark up our own tree whether out of necessity or just an attempt to put a little dare into the orgy.
Now that we've covered the Hill with covert, a refugee Parisian designer says that men will be allowed excess color in their underwear. Ain't it ducky? Unless something rips or a satire on strip-teasing is done, no one will ever guess that we dare to wear red—unless we substitute shorts for pajamas in the coming parade. For years we've laughed at red underwear, now we welcome the blamed outfits. And to think that we paid 55c a pair for some that had diagonal red and white stripes in the back.
We of the green eyes must wear blue suits or the serge type. We of the white hair must wear grey or black and we of the, and we of the, aren't dressed unless we wear Kent collars. It's funny but one of us had a Dad once that went to a varsity dance on this very Hill with his overcoat on because his only pair of pants were torn and he had them on. Tsk! Tsk. What would we think now?
We don't care whether women wear their sweaters frontwards or backwards at all. We don't care if they were plaid skirts or white boots or victory "V's" on their purses. We want their colors, or at least a chance at them. So help us, if we have to play Lady Godiva to show our colors, we'll do it.
To the men: When new hues are hewn you'll hew 'em because if you don't blow your own horn you'll come out the little end of it.

Faurot Works Gridders Hard
Columbia, Mo., Sept. 23. —(UP)— Coach Don Faurot will send his charges through another heavy scrimmage in preparation for the Ohio State game Saturday. The line was strengthened yesterday by the return of Capt. Darold Jenkins, Bob Jeffries and Bob Brenton who all missed the Freshman game because of bad knees. Rayburn Chase was also scrimmaging.
Joe Flavin will probably miss the trip Saturday as his twisted knee hasn't shown much improvement.
BROOKLYN----
Vern Bowen at wingback is showing steady improvement and probably will be the understudy for Bob Stueber.
(continued from page five) that may bring them to within a half game of first place.
The rest may prove costly to the Dodgers because the Pirates, losers of five of their last six starts, hardly seem able to offer much opposition to the battling Red Birds. Frankie Frisch scheduled Rip Sewell and Ken Heintzelman for mound duty against the Cards' Max Lamier and Mort Cooper.
Brooklyn opens a two-game series at Boston tomorrow, takes the next day off and then closes out the campaign with the Phillies at Ebbets field for week end games.
A Cappella Holds Tryouts
Coming "Sergeant York
Tryouts for the University A Cappella Choir under Dean D. M. Swarthout will be completed by Wednesday of this week and the personnel of the organization announced for the new year within the next day or so.
Members of last year's choir were allowed entrance without re-examination and 39 members have already claimed their placing leaving 41 places to be filled. Seventy-three students have already tried out or have made application for try-outs up to today.
The choir will enroll eighty voices and will play a prominent part in the musical calendar at the University. They will appear at the University All-Musical Vespers and at the Music Festival in May. Last spring the choir appeared in a performance of the Brahms "Requiem" with orchestra as well as in a concert program of unaccompanied numbers.
Rehearsals for the choir will be held Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday afternoons at 4:30 o'clock.
SUMMER JOBS----
(continued from page six)
A summertime student managed O.P.M. might be something positively lyrical, and to judge by the expressions upon the faces of a certain presidential cabinet, a three months spree would not do them any harm. University medics could run Johns Hopkins hospital nobly as a summer work project, and the board of directors of Standard Oil would welcome a long fishing trip in the heat of the summer. In short, revolution is imminent.
