The Harry Hill who recently weighed a ton of coal lump by lump on a bathroom scales to see if he had been cheated is not the Harry Hill connected with the filler material on the opposite page. Our Harry Hill wouldn't weigh his coal lump by lump; he picks his up along the Santa Fe tracks.
The Gamma Phi freshmen have formed a new club with a commendable point. The youngsters have united in the common purpose of helping each other stop swearing. Swearing at the Gamma Phi house is the privilege of actives, not freshmen, according to sophomore Betty West.
Following the T.N.E. scandal at Missouri we wonder if the local chapter will be hanging their crest at the Pan-Hel party this weekend they have done in past years.
Vernon Berkey, freshman medic at the Nu Sig house, recently got a big load off of his chest. For several weeks Berkey has been steeling his nerve to call Mary Ellen Skonberg at the Pi Phi house. Last night he pulled himself together, dashed into the phone booth and talked to Mary Ellen for almost five minutes. When he left the booth he tore up some pieces of paper with the exclamation, "Well, I won't need these anymore."
When his brother medics asked him what the papers had contained he explained that they were notes he had jotted down before he called Mary Ellen. He didn't want to get stuck with nothing to say!
If there is a meaner man than the vain in this drama, he probably is busy beating his wife to pull stunts like this one. Anyway, lawyer Bob McKinley gets an autographed ticket to the North Pole, the week's award for the worst dirty trick. He made a date for the prom with a Miller hall coed, after which she turned down other offers. Just before the dance, McKinley broke the date.
When you see the Kansas Engineer you'll agree with some that, it not the Sour Owl, should be sold as the campus humor magazine. Dean Crawford's opinion followed the same channels for into his office he called editor Leo Johnstone to warn

Bob Ramsay, who should be famous, apparently isn't. Last year he broke the national goldfish gulping record and later ran for M.S.C. president as an independent candidate. One of the gate keepers at a basketball game stared unusually long at Ramsay, then looked equally hard at his displayed activity book. Finally, the attendant said, "Well, you are in college, aren't you?"
