Did you go to the fire? The efficiency of the University fire department was amply illustrated Saturday when a score of excited janitors raced towards Fowler Shops with fire extinguishers. "I knew it wasn't a fire," explained one person when asked why he ran. "The first thing I thought of was that a war with Japan had been declared." A student minus one shoe, coatless and hatless walked down the hill in disgust after the fire. "Aw say, that was a poor joke," he muttered. "I thought I would be there in time to save at least one stone from out the ruins." Announcement. The dancing school held at Everett Hall on Saturday evenings will continue a few more evenings.
