Ever sense John and I wuz little boys, are mama's
and are Dad's told us we wuz goin to Kolage. This is
because we were supposs to git edukated so we could
grow up and make lots of money bean smart.
So the tyme when John and I wuz about ready to
graduate from Hi Skool came. We rote a letter to the
Univercity of Goorga and they sed they wook be very
pleezed to have us attend at a small cost, and pretty
soon it wuz the last weak at home and tyme for us to
leeve for Kolage. I got reel xcited and my mama even
gave me cuff links with the Goorga bulldog on them,
which we all no is the cymbal for are skool. So I road
up here and met John, cause he didn't ride up to
Athens with me And when I sed I thought Athens
was in Grease, he just laffed and said that I wuz dum.
Anyway, John and I wuz walkin down the rode and
we saw a lot of freturninty shirts and a lot of floks
who tawked about gittin' drunk and raisin hail We
even saw folks who looked at us funny cause we
didn't join the ROTC which John sez stands for Rite
Ornery Tuff Caracter. And I figured they take the
tuffest folks and let them wear costumes and they git
to play armee too, like my daddy did.
We saw one nite these folks Mio spit at us from
there Gee Tea Oh, and George was with us to But
then one nite somebody sed thar wuz rock nr oil music
down neer the swimmin pool And so John and I and
George went thar and it wuz good muzik. We sat cloz
to the stage and saw everything.
But thar wuz a lot moor than rocknroll musik—
thar wuz lots of people like us who liked to be
frendly and I found sum peeple who didn't care what
John and I and George looked like or that we didn't
whar fancy clothes and we didn't even belong to a
soroari tee, but they liked us cause we liked them, and
we felt really good and had alot of fun and we wuzn't
even drunk
I new John felt good to cause he smiled

Women's lib
What is Women's Liberation? It is a movement to
better women's status in a male oriented society.
One asks just what are the objectives of this
particular movement. The overall objective is the
achievement of equality for women who have long
been recognized merely as members of the "weaker
sex." Some specific demands are: (1) equal pay for
equal work, (2) day care centers for working mothers,
(3) recognition that women have the same capacity
for mental achievement as males.
How does the women's lib movement relate to the
University of Georgia campus? Not very well.
It is an established fact at the University that
coeds are thought of as sex objects; and everyone
seems happy to go along with the assumption. The
whole dating system revolves around the fun-loving,
friendly sex. In mose cases, intelligence is not con
sidered as a qualification for a good date.
Another established fact is that the majority of
coeds come to the University seeking the coveted
M. R. S. degree. These strickly non-academic courses
are offered during the weekend. Participation and
attendance are always high.
The typical University coed shuts her eyes to the
world beyond the University campus, ignoring
current issues of relevance. She has no desire to
acquire knowledge of important problems beyond her
weekly date list.
In many cases, women here generally dislike one
another due to the competitive atmosphere. This
atmosphere needs to be abolished so that women can
learn to get to know each other as people, not rivals.
If women learn to respect each other as people,
perhaps the male population will follow this example
towards women.
Women's lib is not a joke. It is by no means meant
to deprive women of their femininity, but to give
them their deserved freedom.
It is not meant to be a radical, "bra-burning"
movement but consists of sincere, concerned people
who happen to be born women.

Yearbook demise rumored
A rampaging rumor has elated the student body,
much to the embarrassment of the SGA (student
government association). According to a source close
to the student government, the rumor has absolutely
no truth to it and is not even being considered. The
SGA would like to get their hands on the hippie who
started it.
What has excited the students at the normally
jaded University of Georgia is the rumor that the
SGA has made ready a plan which is at once bold and
radical and shows signs that the SGA is finally
turning-on to the students. The rumor runs that the
end of the yearbook is near.
Few students have been willing to state publicly
where the rumor started, but preliminary investi-

gations indicate a popular hostess at the Bulldog
Room might be responsible. When tracked down she
was full of information she claims she gathered from
her pusher who also deals closely with members of
the SGA.
As she tells it, "The annual Annual is to be
replaced with a quarterly Annual in magazine form.
The Annual is the most universally disliked item at
the University, besides Bolton Hall and the football
ticket fiasco. Nearly everyone agrees that the Annual
is an annual bomb.
Besides, it costs $52,000. "With 20,000 students
at this school, that makes only 19,000 pictures of
19,000 students I've never even met. The only people
who liked the annual are the people who put it out
and some of them weren't elated about it. The
Annual may have had some relevance to the Univer
sity, but other than as an aid to prospective blind
dates, it has very little relevance to the individual."
Comments on the revolutionary plan range from
"Wow!" to "Far out!" and by the time the rumor
had made a full cycle up to the dorms and back down
to the Bulldog Room the foremost topic of discussion
on campus was what the SGA should do with all the
money saved.
At least the SGA can redeem itself by going ahead
and announcing the long awaited plans to put a stop
to the ill-winds of Pandora, and put an end to these
wanton hippie rumors. Bin Walsh
