The presidents of the two colleges, followed by faculties and students, led the lines across the campus to the dining room in Morgan Hall, which was beautifully decorated for the occa sion. Here two hours were spent in chatting, form ing new acquaintances and meeting friends. Much popular music was played and the grand marches included the space of the dining room and the campus walks. This social gaiety was abruptly halted by Mr. Riley, who stated that the football team who would play the following day must retire. At 9:30 the signal of departure was given; then each college sang its college song, all guests bade their friends good night and slowly de parted.

JAMES, '31 Ye ambitious Freshmen who received such hearty welcomes last week from the inhabi tants of this campus—watch your step—“Freely received. Freeh- given up.” A grand senior in the presence of the new Student Adviser : Oh, I can go out “anytime” I wish. An earnest and well-meaning senior in a daily dining-room lecture: Yes, each girl knows that she should sit flat on the floor! (She meant, “with feet flat on the floor.”) If you are imitating George Washington you cannot say these things: I always have enough to eat. I study real hard. I am never broke. I receive A+’s in all of my subjects. I never buy candy or sandwiches with book money. I never “cut” chapel or prayer-meeting. I always love to go to all of mv classes. I never hand in a theme late. I am always in the upper division of the class. I wish “Lab” period was four hours instead of two. I was glad I didn’t have the money to go to that football game. I am never late to class. I asked the delicatessen clerk to make me a “small” sandwich. I wish “Y” dues were §2.00 a year instead of $1.00. Last year it was the “new chapel.” This year it is the “new post office.” If wishes came true there would be six deliv eries of mail each day. I saw her as she stood very erect, hands at her side and feet at the proper angle. Her head was turned “dress right” and she merely smiled faintly as we passed. I turned to my companion and asked if this person was practicing for her “gym" class. I was very much surprised to find that it was only a “Senior” trying to look “dig nified.” DO YOU KNOW THEM? You will find them among our student body walking around somewhat promisciously, act ing as if they don't know—exactly what to do. Sometimes you’ll find one with a sheet of yellow paper in her hand which seems to bear a precious message. The other continues saying to herself as she walks around: "I'll go crazy if I don’t get a special.” You will recognize them if you see them. They are the “College Widows.”
