Wary Students Watch 'Black Friday'
Students retraced their steps today to avoid black cats crossing their paths, shaved without mirrors lest one break,and made detours to avoid walking under ladders.
Today is Friday the 13th.
Even four leaf clovers, rabbits' feet and lucky pennies didn't help a few students.

'Russia Won't Force War'
TOPEKA — Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt said last night that Russia won't force a "hot" war because it fears the prospect of total nuclear annihilation in a modern war.
In a speech here, she said this didn't mean the Soviet Union would end the "cold" war. Instead of warfare, she said:
"Russia is carrying out a wellcalculated plan of courting the uncommitted nations to win them over to communism."
But, she said, Russian Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev told her he believes war is "unthinkable."
"But unless he could destroy the world and not have any resistance, he would not be able to gain anything from war," she said.
Mrs. Roosevelt devoted much of her 50-minute talk to Soviet education. The 74-year-old former first lady recently toured Russia.
"He told me that Russia could in one day destroy the whole of Europe and Great Britain.
She said that Russia's educational system is established for political purposes. Everything they do is for the single purpose of winning the world for communism.

But even bed can be dangerous on this day. One fraternity member dreamed he was walking across the Brooklyn Bridge when suddenly it began to sway.

At the fraternity no one ate salt on his eggs. To spill even one grain would be bad luck, even on an ordinary day.
No one opened his umbrella indoors this morning, and some students, discouraged by the
drizzle and dense fog blanketing the campus, turned over and went back to sleep. They missed their classes but it was better that way.
The safest place on "Black Friday" is in bed.
Larry Hazelrigg, Rockport, Mo., senior, got his bad luck. Things were going fine for him this morning—his shower water was hot, his breakfast was good and he didn't have classes until 11 o'clock.
He finished classes and went home. On his desk was the assignment he'd forgotten to give
After another 30 minutes, he coaxed his automobile to the hill. The instructor was gone. So was Hazelrigg's morale. He went home and climbed into
He also ripped his gloves, flooded his carburetor and found his heater was out of commission.

Hazelrigg tried to deliver the paper in a hurry. His windshield was covered with mud. Thirty minutes later he had transferred the dirt from his car to his coat.
He reached up to grab a guy wire and knocked a picture off the wall. His roommate, a waiter, heard the tinkling glass and gave a reflexive twitch that sent him rolling to the floor where he ended up in the splinters.
Which led the pair to hold a pre-dawn discussion on Freudian symbols, totems and taboos.
