YESTERDAY By Barthur Risbane Guess you heard about Grady and Lauef They both invited some body to the dramatic club blow-out. Ho-.rover, wo hear that it is not se rious. Seems that the Kowo family has a wrcat attraction for Cruse. When one leaves, there is a twin to reconcile her. The past elections showed much of “Hooey Long” tactics. We wonder if these budding politicians received their training in the Constitutional conven tion which convened in History 1? Harris says he can tell when Hogue has been to Howell’s class. His suit always looks as if it had been slept in. In days of old when knights were bold And barons held their sway, They took their orders from their wives Like Mr. Roberts does today. Varner informs us that J. P. Mor gan, Sr., is the father of J. P., Jr. Elaine in government during a dis cussion of national elections: “If the Tuesday after first Monday came on Sunday, when would the election be held?” Also heard in this class: “The sec retary of state sits on the president’s right hand.” Air. Watson received a wilted spray of lilacs from a loving student with this card. “Prom your loving pupils.” When you see all these couples moon ing around together and not saying a word, you may be sure that they have have not had a quarrel. They are only contemplating the dreariness of their life after June 6th.
