On the Shin-it was Chet Mize, a Phi Delt. We wonder how much of it is a joke.
We see in the authorized parties for the weekend that the Phi Psi's and the Triangle's are both going to the State Lake for parties or something. The funny thing is, however, that the Phi Psi's have to be in at 8:30 while the Triangle's can stay until 11 o'clock. What's the matter? Can't the Phi Psi's be trusted?
There is a graduate student on the Hill by the name of Robert Mangelsdorf who hasn't learned about women as yet. It seems that he has one girl in Wilmington, Del., and another in Los Angeles. Both have written and told him that they are coming to see him as soon as possible. "This top guy's girl in Aitchison sent him a card with the following verse which tells its own story. We offer our sympathy."

Frogs Keyed for Derby; 40,000 May See Jumpers
Angels Comp, Calif., May 11 (UP) - With shevy ice lensorin through the spring air, the jumpfrogs of Calavara county are 1 training for the unmobil world sport classic the ninth Annual International Jump Frog Jubileo to be held May 14-15.
Forty thousand frog-jump fans from all over the United States are expected to pour into this Sierra on the hump of the Mother Lode.
An entry list of blue-blooded leopers from all parts of the country, with a probable entry or two from Germany, is being drown up. San Francisco and Hollywood frog stable owners, as well as trainers from surrounding towns, will contest for a bitter rivalry. Local Pride Swells
Despite the highly-touted and publicized crackers from Hollywood and blue-bloods from Louisiana's bayou, the superiority of local champions carefully has been seriously challenged—exceeded by knavery.
This amphibian Olympic gained international fame, however, when Mark Twain chronicled one of the blackest episodes in the history of frog jumping. His story, "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County," told of the 1855 classic Frog jumping had come into local renown in those rattle-dazed days. He was one of the earliest to sniff, and usually made a one-way trip from mine to bar or gambling table.
One Jim Smiley owned a leaper whose legs seemed to be sinewed with india rubber and spring steel. As the competition got under way and Smiley's croaker seemed to be sweeping the field as usual, a pair of slicers from New York's Bowyer showed up and declared any common cibern frog could outlap him. City Slickers Too Slick
Eagerly snapping up the bait, Smiley's backers snared a frog for the New Yorkers and covered their bets in record time. Several thousand dollars worth of gold dust was at stake. But just before the event, the Easterners slipped into a hardware store, bought a handful of buckshot, and poured the pellets down the local champion's throat. When the jump-off came, Smiley's entry nearly broke apart, but could hardly manage a pin-up.
And the Bowery bilkers streaked over the foothills laden with gold dust.
Since then precautions have been taken to prevent such tactics. Hard-ware stores remained closed and the rattle of buckshot is liable to bring a

A second almost blackened last year's events, however, when one favorite failed to get off his legs; it looked as though buckshot had been smuled into the arena. His disgusted owner later found that the frog had committed the athlete's lunch, error, over-injury a lunch.

Reports from Hollywood indicate the movie enthusiasts will be represented despite former flakes. Bob Burns, the comedian, entered a sleepy-looking croaker from the red-mud flats of Van Buren, Ark, and Bing Crosby, the singing star, brought "Double or Nothing," a grandstander who drew nothing, doubled, in the showdown.
Angels Camp civic leaders, promoters of the classic, announced that the 40-acre site leased for the jubilee will be improved this year with adequate parking space and erection of a 49-er village. The village will in-dependently serve as the Fargo agency, fire house, dance hall, barber shop and printing office.
