gone are the visitors, old grads, and

CO-ED
We admire your beautiful eyes of
blue,
You slim little, cut little five-foot-
two;
Your lips so crimson and hair so
fair,
Your manner so dauntlessly debon
air.
We like to hear, once more retold,
The line that you hand us, so piti
fully old;
The flag of flattery you ever unfurl,
That places us right on top of the
world.
We enjoy the dances and dates with
you,
Times that are almost too good to
be true;
That shorten the hours of dull col
lege life,
Everlastingly filled with toil and
strife.
And yet, oh daughters of wond’rous
Eve,
We ask imploringly, our plea to re
ceive;
There’s only one thing we ask, and
that's
To forever abolish those Eugenie
hats!

V. M. C. A. Forma
Student Bureau
A “lost and found” bureau, the
first of its kind, has been formulated
by the University of Georgia Y. M.
C. A., for the use of the entire stu
dent body. The bureau was sug
gested by the Freshmen Y. M. C. A.
cabinet, and met with the approval
of the Senior cabinet.
All articles found by students and
other persons on the campus or
about Athens should be left in the
University Y. M. C. A. office in care
of Miss Mary Banks, Forsyth, secre
tary. Efforts will be made to lo
cate the owner, and in the event that
he is not found, articles will be re
turned to the finder.
Persons losing possessions of any
sort are to call at the same office.
Should the lost article not be in the
office, a description of It will be
taken by Miss Banks and the name
and address of the loser. Uniform
typewritten notices will be placed on
the “Y” bulletin board by the bureau
in an effort to locate the lost arti
cles.
Y. M. C. A. officials are confident
that the bureau will eliminate the
countless number of notices now
scattered about the campus, few of
which are effective; and that if the
students co-operate, the bureau will
be highly successful.
Letters to the Editor
LEROY'S LETTERS
Dear Editor:
I was quite amused by a column
which appeared in your paper last
week entitled "Campus Color.” It
appears that one "Naught” Sanders,
claiming to come from Los Angeles,
is much disturbed by the co-eds.
W’ho, may I ask, invited this West
ern hoodlum to matriculate at Geor
gia? We didn’t. If he is not ca
pable of appreciating the society of
Southern girls he has our permis
sion to go home—if he has one.
It is also quite evident that this
same "Naught” Sanders, poor fel
low, is so disgruntled at the at
tendance of girls at Georgia, that
he must disturb himself over the
inquiry why the members of the
fraternities invite girls who do not
attend Georgia to their house par
ties . We wonder what Georgia co
ed has refused to associate with
“Naught” to got him in this temper.
Amusedly yours,
A. CO-ED.
Dear Editor:
The practice by certain students
of using the general library as a
meeting place, to discuss and enjoy
various morsels from the day’s com
monplace happenings, has become
exceedingly regrettable to those who
visit the library for quiet and study.
Shall we forsake Costa’s for the
library, or should the two "U’s” Buf-
(Continued from page 4)
up into different types of people like
that when they are all students.
I am doing fine and do not need
much money, but if you could send
me five dollars I would appreciate
it. My roommate paid me back the
fer for lack of patronage which is
rightfully theirs? Certainly these
worthy organizations should be kept
going. So let’s give them the tea-
parties, reserving the library for
other things.
Serious concentration on college
subjects may be a matter of sec
ondary importance in the lives of
some individuals, yet it is not so to
all. The library should be kept the
place where students may go to get
the maximum out of study. Silence
is essential.
If you share my view on this sub
ject I would appreciate your pre
senting this in The Red and Black.
Yours very truly,
A STUDENT.
WHERE IS THAT MONEY?

use of university property is of in
terest to the entire student body.
How much money did the Pan-
Hellenic council make on Homecom
ing dances, and where is that
money?
» • •
University instructors and tutors
are threatened with pay cuts, and
get their money weeks behind time.
Deserving students and recent grad
uates are cut oft from the fellow
ships and assistant instructorships
the university gave before the de
pression hit Georgia.
It is a disgrace and a blot on
the university that high-handed rob
bery should be carried on under the
very noses of the university faculty.
The president of Pan-Hellenic does
not think it’s robbery, but, in the
final analysis, that’s what it is.
Money that should be used for aid
ing worthy student activities or help
ing pay some back salaries, goes to
the president of the Pan-Hellenic
council. The money made from the
dances should be put Into an activ
ities fund, and the Pan-Hellenic
council president allowed a certain
amount for his trouble.
Double contracts with orchestras
form the principal source of in
come. Then too, Pan-Hellenic offi
cers are paid certain amounts by the
university, It is understood. Those
double contracts are the main thing
—an orchestra with a contract for
$1,600 may actually get $800,

Probably the slimiest political
deal the university has ever seen
was pulled off when the present
president of the Pan-Hellenic coun
cil was elected. Fraternities were
promised campus offices, member
ship in honorary organizations, and
everything else the campaign man
agers could think of, provided they
voted for the present incumbent. A
lot of the fraternities fell, and some
of their members lost a few honors
and offices thereby.
Personally, I think the president
of the Pan-Hellenic council is a darn
fine chap. Perhaps he isn’t making
quite as much money as some of
the past presidents. But he’s mak
ing plenty more than he should,
more than any student on the cam
pus should make from a campus of
fice.
I wonder Just how much the uni
versity was told the dance orches
tra that played here last week-end
was paid. If it’s more than $500,
then there is a nigger in the wood-
pile.
Finally—how much money did
the Pan-Hellenic council make on
those dances last week-end, and who
got that money?

dollar he owed me just before Home-
coming, but the next day he bor
rowed five more so he could go to
the dance. I thought the dance was
very costly, and that it was not
worth five dollars but I loaned it to
him. He is going to pay me back
the first, and until then he is letting
me wear his wrist watch.
I must close for it is almost time
to go to supper. Love,
LEROY.
