With betting still in order, we would like to mention that Jane Reed is the subject of one of the most unusual bets ever made in our alma mater. One of our confident males was so impressed by our Gamma Phi friend that he has placed a dollar twenty-five bet that he can go steady with Jane before the deadline. He has no chance to date her yet, but his hopes are high.
From our observations and the distinct rumors about the campus, we gather that Jean Lindgren, Chl Omega, is just waiting for Bill Blackett to serve his time and receive that sainted O'Bult says this is a mere mercy.

We are glad to know that Jack Townsend's bring up was sufficient to bestow him with knowledge that true justice would be served loyalty and respect. He recently acquired picture of Betty Barnes of the family graced with a gorgeous frame of silver.

Bob Robbe (just a reedy) was the subject of a much trunk beak trick before his economic class took up the other after-room. Dave Roberts and Leo Freed, relieving a bit of that spring teep, took off Bob's shoes and filled it full of water from the fountain outside the door. Even Butch remembers those grand ones we went to work on and ended up all of us went on a tear and caked up in the principal's office.
Yes sir, these women sure keep us in the dark. We hear that Marshall Garner, Kappa Sigma alumun, has been going with Martha Fitzhugh (decidedly a redhead) since last summer, and during all this time, he thought she was a woman. But he has made our misfortunes that way. Martha Batch is slightly color blind too.
How many of you know the daring looking song writer we have in our midst? She is Arlene Allen and her copyrighted songs are: "Lookin' After You" Steering Clair" and "Tying To You" Hevc's Hevc's to your success, little 'angel.'
An English writer of that department recently wrote a paper on "Joan of Arc and her Experiences." When Joan of Arre was being burnt at the stake, she said, "I remember being burnt at the steak—oh, well we all make错误 once in a while.
Fighting is the masculine method of setting an argument, and we were just not able to figure out how much weight intramural footwear match that Dave Shirek and George Morford fought the other night. They're room-mates, you know, and if it just couldn't have been so easy.
It seems that the Laws dampened the spirit of the Engineers at the latter's banquet a few night ago. After the banquet was well along, the air got warm and they talked about lawyers). A window was opened to air things out. Just as the principal speaker of the evening was on his way to the climax of his speech, these noteworthy fellow poets poked a hole through the ceiling of engineers became just a little soot.
Here is one K-man who is truly kneeling cave-crawl-on in us. Chrische Pitsen was dead and then he effective (the our gib-ab-town, Elinor Kline). She didn't seem to be enjoying it as much as you were not doing it the next time, don't block the sidewalls.

Members of the Alpha Delta Pi sorority were interrupted at dinner Friday evening, when an aviator from Florida visited the residence of said house, decided to pull a surprise arrival by practically removing the roof. Unable to locate Virginia, who had gone to Kansas City with Dr. Bauer to attend his visit to the airport to bring the handsome pilot to town, only to find that although he appreciated their interest in him, he was not interested in how the girls appreciate his loyalty—and declare it a thrilling event.

There is a queer story told about the building of a part of Fraser Hall. The state architect, at the time of its construction, was also architect for the state insane asylum at Oswatimie. He offered the regents of the University a portion that had been designed for the asylum but which, because of a mistake in the design, was not intended for its intended purpose. The porition was shipped to Lawrence and tacked onto the east entrance of Fraser Hall and is still there today.

Iler became the first chancellor, North College building suffixed for the few students who were enrolled in the University, but in only two years' time this institution was named the esteemed John Fraser, when he became chancellor in 1878, looked with foresight into the future and envisioned a building that would care for the needs of all of 500 students. His pleas for such a structure were met, and they secured its creation, and today that building, called Fraser hall in his honor, still stands, the oldest building on the campus. Those who were acquainted with the chancellor say that they can see his sturdy Scotch character reflected in his voice. It is true that he gave most of his time and thought to help plan and design it.

Indirectly this man was responsible for the erection of Spooner-Tayer library. In 1891 he received a huge sum of money by the will of his deceased uncle, William B. Spooner.

Their second dance is staged on the quarterdeck of a freighter and is an eccentric jig to the strains of another Berlin creation, "All My Eggs Are in One Basket." Their fans, used to seeing their favorite beddeded in top hat, will be surprised to see him go through his paces in navy dugoes.
An interpretative dance to a haunting new Berlin melody, "Let's Face the Music and Dance," is a finale for the group. It takes place in which the pair is formally attired.
