Friday night in the Memorial Union ballroom, the brass buttons and dark blue of R.O.T.C. uniforms will prove the adage: "There's something about a soldier." The same evening, in the same building the Owl society will entertain in the Kansas room, while on Edgehill road the Phi Delta Theta winter formal will be in full swing.
A stuffed boar's head and blazing plum pudding will highlight the Corbin hall faculty dinner Wednesday, Dec. 13. Carolers and caroling in the old English manner will add to the holiday spirit.

quite happy with the scholarly type of work provided by his position with the legislative council in Topeka,炎 interested in writing a book on the history of rounding college life, but is more concerned about getting out to Hays to see fannie Jane Flood . . .

It's unaccent how young John Slocum can greet so many persons with their correct names and with such superb poise . . . not at the convention but in one of these places, was Phi Delt Walt Weeks, last year's act playboy and this year an employee on a Crete, Nebr. paper . . . Of course, John Randdle Tye, the Kansan's page-two columnist of last year and now of its kind. Instead, J.H. was around. Johnny is firmly convinced now that there is a big difference between being for the masses while in college and being of the masses after graduation.
The fact isn't being publicized but army and navy recruiting stations in the Middlewest are leary of college students because of possible too-liberal leanings. None are recruited without a through check-up. The Hummer and Sickle has virtues after all. Tattoo a red star on your wrist or drink a barrel of vinegar to keep out of the draft come the call to arms. (In case the latter comes to pass, I take this item back.)
If this be humor then give me the World Almanac—A Delta Chi pledge called Theta Eleanor Crossland and gave her an ante-diluvian line about her charms and then remarked: "If it weren't so far over to your house I would make a date
Concerning fickle cupid.-Phi Giam Jim Hamis as having about as much luck as an eskimo in the Sahara desert with Kappa pledge Betsy Dedge (and that doesn't mean he's setting warm). . . . Kappa Jenne Wedell has supposedly decided upon Phil Gam Fa刘安KEe as her man about the H叶 leaving Phi Delt Kenny Lewis—where? The Pi Phi house is as good as any, I guess. . . Chi Omega Helen贝Ba巩固 and Sig Ep Lyn Burttle practice cooing, woken on ways each other during the week so as to be in condition when they travel together to K.C. in Faubion's car to see their respective boy_and girl friends. Helen Beth can no longer legally term her's "practicing" since her home fire has departed for Randolph Field, Texas.
"My soul is dark with stormy riot. Directly traceable to diet."

The Shin wishes to dedicate this little verse which seems very pertinent. The Shin says, "Thanksgiving season to all suffers who have eaten well but not wisely—like the Shin."
Friends are wishing Phi Pi Virginia Anderson and Kappa Sig prexy Dick Hansen luck in the attempt to re-light the candle of romance. The candle will go out rather suddenly if Miss Anderson announces her engagement to Sig Alph alumnus Jack Townsend, which current rumors say will happen soon.
Sigma Chi Lawrence Nelson has
spent the past month clamoring for a dish that sounds like "Late Fisk." However spelled, it is a Swedish fish food. The reason for Nelson's sudden epicurean interest is his desire to take Ingrid Frestadius to dinner. Frankly, Nelson's thoughtfulness is ill-considered. The charming Miss Frestadius is a marvelous example of northern physical culture and probably better able to withstand the "simple" standard fraternity cuisine than Nelson.
The new combination of Pi Phi pledge Chestine Wilson and Jimmy (Sour Owl) Robertson is about happy a one as could be conceived. Comely, Jovely Miss Wilson has all the social desires desired while Robertson—well, I hate to admit Pi— possesses a rare wit and aptitude for clever repartee that smooths over some of high rough
