THE WEST GEORGIAN
Facts About The
West Georgian
Many students ask why they can
not have two copies of the West
Georgian. Perhaps because these
people do not know the real facts,
they are so insistent. Well, here
are the facts.
There are enrolled at West Geor
gia 526 students. We have only 600
copies of the West Georgian printed
each issue. Our exchanges with
other school newspapers have to be
made, and these exchanges take
about thirty-five copies of the West
Georgian. The advertisers, num
bering around twenty-five, must
also be given a copy of each issue.
Copies of the West Georgian costs
ten cents each for printing only.
Our budget does not permit our
having more than one copy printed
for each of our students enrolled.
Each year a college budget is
made up and the expenditure
money of the West Georgian is in
cluded in this budget. This allow
ance in the college budget does not,
however, cover the entire expense
of the West Georgian. For that
reason it is necessary to carry ad
vertising to supplement funds al
lowed for our newspaper. We can
not carry more advertising than we
:arry at present without spoiling
the appearance of our publication
as a newspaper. Any money paid
for extra copies of those left over
after distribution, goes toward ex
penses of the paper.
As to the use of cuts, they add to
the expense of the paper and they
are difficult to obtain. This fall
quarter we have asked for cuts of
some of our speakers. The cuts
were promised, but failed to come.
A recent revision of the budget
gives an increase in the allowance
for the West Georgian, not enough
however to double the number of
copies printed each issue, as we
would have to in order to give stu
dents at least two copies. But
enough increase has been made to
use cuts more often and to ease
other points of strain on our budget.
We shall, during the remainder of
the year, use cuts when they are
obtainable.
WHO KILLED
THAT BOAR?
“Gee I’m getting good! I hit the
fence post that time!” comes a
shriek from the archery field.
“All right, everybody shot?” rings
out Miss Sturgis voice over the
crisp air.
All the girls who are not frozen
stiff and who haven’t peeled all the
skin off their fingers make a rush
for their arrows. (No, not for the
target, but their arrows.)
There goes somebody climbing
over the fence. She must not think
archery is strenous enough, so she
adds fence climbing to be sure to
retain her beautiful figure.
“Hey, here’s my arrow, Hazel!”
shouts Carolyn. “I didn’t realize I
was that strong.” (At last she tells
us why she was climbing over the
fence.)
Finally, after Helen has recover
ed all the lost arrows for the poor
souls who can’t see, they all line up
to shoot once more.
“String your bow and nock your
arrow” calls Miss Sturgis.
Zing, zing, zing—there they go,
one by one.
“Oh I hit the target! Oh goody,
goody!!, but only the white. That
counts one, doesn’t it?” comes from
expert Carolyn Bryant.
But wait, what’s that squealing
sound coming from the pasture? No
it just couldn’t be —no it —yes, I
guess it is.”
Well that’s one way to get pork
chops for supper. Wonder what
Mr. Ingram will say???
SENATOR
CLAGHORN
Asa senator of the U. S. congress,
I feel confident of knowing the
wants of each individual of West
Georgia College, that is.
First of all I would like anew
soap box from which I can deliver
my short four-hour speeches, fili
busters, that is. Next, after talking
to all biology students the common
want of all was merely an “A” (?)
for each.
My friend Sherman Lindsay may
have been hinting to Dink Lovell
when he asked for a carton of cig
arettes, but at any rate he wants to
create more love for dear old W.G.
C. Jack Pinson wants plenty of
candy, NUTS, and fruit as well as a
permanent position in front of
Jackie Croker’s house in Dallas.
(Santa, I hope you haven’t heard of
the things that went on there dur
ing the Thanksgiving Holidays. He
really is a good boy, he says.)
For the refugees of Border’s Bar
racks I ask that you bring them a
complete new wardrobe with a fire
insurance policy.
Oh! Yes, all the third years want
is their castle back, the Gunn
House, that is.
The student body would like
some new blue benches for the
front campus as well as a recrea
tion room and a name for our col
lege store.
Dr. Roberts wants a way to keep

his pipe lit. And for Miss
stall, bring her another biology
teacher, a handsome one, that is.
More shelves could be given Mr.
Oliver for his reserve books. It
wouldn’t take but a few hundred
shelves. Mr. Row might like a
towel with which to comb his hair.
A push cart to push his books
around in would aid Mr. Adams.
In conclusion, I ask generosity
on all and wish each a merry
Christmas and a happy New Year.
Yours for fewer exams,
Senator George Bilbo Claghorn.
V.R.A. Sponsors
Sunrise Serviec
As its special Thanksgiving ob
servance the V.R.A. Council spon
sored a sunrise service at 6:30 a.m.,
in Mandeville lobby on November
27, 1946. This service was very well
attended and an inspirational mes
sage by Professor George C. S.
Adams gave those present anew in
sight into the grateful spirit of
Thanksgiving.
For Christmas the Council is
sponsoring the making up of sev
eral baskets for the needy. All
members of the V.R.A., which in
cludes every student on the cam
pus, are contributing money, cloth
ing, and food, to go into these bas
kets. Alpha Psi generously donated
a quilt to add to one of the baskets.
In the true spirit of Christmas, V.
R.A. members are finding that “It
is more blessed to give than to re
ceive.”
