Joe keeps all the campus policemen company on their patrol trips. “Joe,” WGC Campus Mascot, Leads A Dogs Life Of Riley By Bentley C. Fallis Although many students may feel that they lead a dog’s life, there is one “member” at West Georgia College who really does lead a dog’s life. Joe, the spotted dog seen frequently around campus, cisclosed recently in a personal interview that he actually leads “a life of Riley.” Joe, the offical mascot of West Georgia College, is spok en of as “old Buddy” by some faculty members. Unofficially Joe has the run of the Ad ministration Building. He enjoys stretching out in front of Dr. Walker’s office, Miss Parker’s door, and Dr. Boyd’s office, but his favorite spot is just outside the Business office. Joe’s reason for choosing this particular spot revolves around J. M. Bracknell and D. H. Kidd, campus policemen. Mr. Bracknell, better known as “Nate,” can be considered the real owner of Joe. One night while making his rounds, Nate observed a stray dog following him. He fed the dog, named him “Joe,” and since then Nate and Mr. Kidd have been followed almost con stantly by the large black-and white dog. Petted, well-fed, by scraps from the dining hall, Joe’s only problem in life is the changing of classes, when he is in dan ger of being trampled under foot, and the mad rushes of faculty members through the Cook Named To Council Tony Cook, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wallace Cook of Boyd road, Hogansville, has been named to the newly created Governor's Council on Youth.

Although Joe is very friend ly and loves a pat on the head, he has his unusual quirks of personality. If given too much attention he will af fectionally leave his paw prints all over your freshly launder ed skirt or trousers. He has a morbid fear of doors closing, and surprisingly, has a jeal ous streak. Joe’s cause for jealousy is Red, pet of Mrs. Bob Townley. Red enjoys tagging along after Joe, although at times he dis appears to some mysterious place known only to him. •t' '■* Vyj&f Jpp MOST GLAMOUROUS GIFT UNDER HER TREE . . . sumptuous skimmers 2.99 Pancake-flat slipons, definitely in the holiday mood.

Then on your way to the shower you dropped your soap, stepped on it, and slid the rest of the way? Then you discovered after your shower that you’d for gotten your towel and you had just washed your hair with shoe polish? Is that your trouble, friend? Perhaps you had two tests assigned on one day, so you decided to flunk the English test and study for the history test, and then the history test was called off. Or you have four term papers due on the same day and you’re only taking three subjects. Is that your only problem? Or maybe you were undress ing last night in your room right across from the men’s dorm when suddenly the win dow shade flew up, so you jumped in your closet and the closet door fell off. Or perhaps the campus Dreamboat asked you out on the weekend you had to go home to intercept your mid term grades, then you got home to discover that the grades were mailed out Wednesday. Is that what’s making you hide under your bed and cry? Perhaps you were elected Captain of your soccer team, which means that the mem bers of the opposing team run up and kick you when the ref eree isn’t looking, and at the Christmas dance those char treuse bruises clashed terribly with your new blue semi-for mal. Then, to top it off, the only boy who had asked you out for two months, thirteen days, and 22 hours developed a hangnail on his little finger and had to break your date to the Homecoming activities.
