Homecoming Habit
Honored in Ad
Georgia's tradition of compelling
all senior students to carry canes
and wear derbies during Homecom
ing week-end, is mentioned in this
week's “Alma Mater of Fact” fea
ture advertisement. This Is the first
time that the University has gained
recognition in this unusual fact-fea
ture which is a weekly advertisement
of the William Wrigley, Jr. Chewing
Gum company.
Four-Year Houseparty Practically Ended,
Seniors Dust Off Pants, Start Job Quest
By Hugh lawran
They were cooling their heels on
the steps of the Commerce-Journal
ism building, as they had cooled
them for four years. Two seniors
were they, one a senior in Mr. Drew-
ry’s Journalism school, the other a
protege of Dr. Brooks.
They lit cigarettes. One the Com
merce student they were, since his
old man was beaming with a boom
business in the Ludowici General
store, or some such small-town in
stitution.
Percy, the potential reporter,
spoke first, as potential reporters
usually do.
“For four years we’ve done this,
just sat around on the heel of our
pants. Occasionally, we’ve worked.
And now Just three months left of
a brilliant four-year house party.
Abie, what have you in mind after
June 6?”
“What does June 6 mean?” re
torts Abie, whose thoughts had been
on Military balls, corsages and the
like.
“On June 6, Abie, if God and the
administration are willing, you and
I will become alumni of this institu
tion. We will graduate, wear robes,
and get a diploma. And start mak
ing money.”
With the word “money” Abie in
herently aroused himself and be
came one of the two. In fact, Abie’s
eyes took on a sudden gleam.
"Yes, yes, a job. Money which
is earned, which cometh not from
the old man. Have you a job in
mind?”
“Well, the Press institute is in ses
sion this week, but as yet I haven’t
made a successful contact. But I
know an editor whose left leg is
practically in the grave, and I think
I can convince him that he should
retire. If so, I have a job."
Abie inhaled slowly, knocked the
fire from his half-burned cigarette,
and carefully put it back in the pack.
He was evidently interested in this
round table discussion.
“The old man says he might put
up a branch store in Hahira, and
let me run it. And since there’s
only 26 filling stations in Ludowici
l might enter competition there. But
I’m not worried about making mon
ey. I can even get a government
job counting chickens in Clarjce
county.”
Percy, the potential reporter, be
came envious.
“You know,” quoth he, “I hear
the Ag students are placed faster
than they graduate. In fact, I know
a feller who goes to work on June
7, just pointing out trees for the
C. C. C. boys to cut down.”
“What’s the salary?” inquires
Abie.
"Upward of $160 per month.”
“I always said the farmer couldn’t
always be on the bottom, but that still
doesn’t help me, except that farm
ers have to have supplies some
times. But how about that Press
institute? Why not try to fix your
self a nice job while the editors are
in town?”
Percy stirred, as Percy had not
stirred in four years. Standing up,
he slowly dusted the seat of his
slick pants, uttered the customary,
“Good-bye, now,” and disappeared
in the direction of institute round
table room.
All of which suffices to give a dis
torted picture of the activity of the
present senior class. They're off
their pants, are the seniors, hurry
ing to land that job on June 7.
The professional and sometimes
the semi-pro typists around the cam
pus are busy in off-hours writing let
ters of application. Writing letters
on which some senior bases his fu
ture financial and social stability.
Daily the Education seniors scan
the obituary column in the papers
to see if some small town has lost
a school teacher; the pharmacists
drop into the drug stores to Inquire
if “Doc” knows a feller who needs
a pill roller; the Ag boys await the
summons of Uncle Sam, which will
bear them to his forests, and the
Journalism hopefuls are preparing a
list of the small-town editors whose
left legs are nearing the grave.
True, on the 6th day of June the
four-year house party, chaperoned
so liberally by the taxpayers and the
faculty, and provided for by the old
man, comes to its untimely end.
