Even sophisticated University stu
dents find that a circus still has its
charms. This was proved Wednes
day when hundreds of students laid
aside their newly purchased text
books and gathered under the big
top.
All thoughts of school were cast
aside as they ate peanuts and cheered
time-worn performers. Old tricks
were applauded with the same gusto
that greeted them in their initial ap
pearance.
Entire sections of the tent were
filled with students who had seen
the "show” many times but who
could not resist the call of sawdust
and spangled ladies. A few fresh
men were even guilty of staying to
see the Wild West show and wrestling
matches which took place immediate
ly after the main exhibition.
University towns are usually risky
places for circus performances but
fortunately no student incurred the
wrath of the law Wednesday. May
be there will be another red-letter
day next fall.
