Who Said There Ain1 No Smoking Without The Fireworks HANDKERCHIEFS- FOOL 'EM Run First and Think While Trav elling, Seems Best Motto Him (By the Liver D,octor) We (I and the sidekick) went up tc the ol' home town last week-end to ge1 a taste of apple fritters and a slice of banana cake, etc. And of course my sidekick just had to step, out on a dat< while in the little burg so I called up a couple of sweet patooties and after some persuasion I finally convinced the side. kick that he owed it to posterity to ge and give the dames the once at. Well te consolidate a little so to speak I brought him thru the night's ordeal in good shape and we wuz now about to board the night "Plush Puller" for the campus so's in order that we could meet an 8:30 class the next morning. I wuz mighty glad to see that they wuzan't no good looking gals gonna make the trip bac1 with us cause my sidekick has a partic. ular and peculiar weakness where any good-looking prospective alimony col lector is concerned. Furthermore, I did. n't want to be bothered with keeping at eye on him a:nd the worry thereof Well as I intimated before as they Nuthin Doin wuzn't nothing only false teeth anc heavyweights in the depo we wuz hoping for better luck later and sure enuff wher we mounted the steel pony we saw about four seats from the rear the cutesi little pair of peepers looking over th< top of a Saucy Baby magazine. Sh< wuz all esconced in cushions n'every thing. My sidekick, of course, can' find a seat in the whole blamed car ex. cept the one right across the eyshrdshss rushes down and gits rid of the bag. gage fore someone else sees the ad, vantage of the location. I lets the sidekick sit next to the window so's would be between him and temptation etc. We ain't been siting there threi miles fore she gives one of us (I or m3 sidekick) one of them come-hitherlooks Business Picks Up She didn't get much returns on the in. vestment tho cause I'll tell you, womer are funny things and altho I did fee for her, traveling alone like that, still 1 didn't feel like I could trust her with th< sidekick cause as you probably know women can't be judged only by theis looks and boy believe your unc. Dud she wuz a knockout. I had just abou decided that it wuz a closed inciden when cushions began to slip and fall ir the eysle. Now I ask you as a mar whats a fellow gonna do in a case lik< that. Course I picks em up real quidl fore my sidekick has a chance to get ui steam cause I didn't want him to get int< trouble and anyway wuzn't it my job t< keep him outta trouble. Well, as I sait I picked em up and arranged everything back better than it wuz before. When] got through, strange to say there wum plenty room for me too, and I sat dowr cause nobody can't ever tell what thal sidekick of mine will do and I didn' set down only to keep him outta trouble Some Talk WVe got along just fine considering th< fact that wuz compsrative strangers sc to speak. We discussed all about som< guy's law of gravity as applied to the homogeneous species and including the grades of a woman's attraction for mnan, etc. and I wuz just beginning tc get tuned up in fact I wuz right in the middle of my favorite tale bout the co-ed school when the door at the end of the car banged open and a great big guy steps in and looks down the car at us, When he sees us he gets all coliky an<l Purple in the face and starts tugging at his hip pocket. That wuz more than 1 could stand cause I remembered where lots of fellows has got shot by mistake that way. I would like to have stopped~ and explained by I didn't have time I knew the little lady would understand moy hurried depjarture so I didn't hesitate at all but just left pronto like that. I felt like I needed some fresh air so I Went back on the rear platform and Possibly would have gone further if the nlecessity had arisen but nothing out of the ordinary happened so after a while A Sufficiency I felt like I had a sufficiency of fresh DAN REED AND CHAS. MERCER ARE CO-STARS HILB AND MEREDITH PLAY t "The Concert" Proves One of Town Theatre's Brilliant Productions t One of the most brilliant product ions ever put on the Town Theatre stage was played last Thursday, Fri- 1 day and Saturday nights, featuring Mr. v "Danny" Reed, professor of dramatic tl arts in the University, as the leading character. ii Mr. Reed played the part of a tem- c peramental 'musician who is loved and adored by all his pupils. Mr. Reed 1b seldom does a real part himself and it a was quite an opportunity to see so s: accomplished an actor on the stage. li Another important role was played by Mr. Charlie Mercer, professor of tr physics. His brilliant wit and humor si kept the audience laughing continually o but to the University students who i know him in the classroom and on the fi campus he was even more amusing. o He acted with his usual suave and un- h concerned manner. b Misses Hilb and Meredith of the e University played minor parts in the I cast. An interesting feature of the last two performances was the acting of Mrs. "Danny" Reed who took the part of the leading lady with only a few 1 hours notice. Mrs. LaMarr Edmudns v was too ill to continue the show and as it is Mr.Reed's policy never to put off a i performance, Mrs. Reed was hurried into the part and did it exceptionally well. t -USC ATTENTION DEBATERS Preliminaries for the State Tri angle debate will be held Monday night, March, 1, the affirmative can didates trying in the Euphradian halls and the negative candidates in the Clariosophic halls.

I1 -USC gonna have occasion to show my moralt turpitude I sorta wandered (around, taking nm'y time, back up thru the train. Everything wuz just like I left it, noc change at all. When I got back to the car that I had left, I stuck my head in the door sorta careful like so's not to cause nboody no trouble. My side kick wuz in my old seat and seemed to be having a good time. Ini fact both of them were laughing heartily at some joke. Just about that time I heard an r awful fuss down the car and I looked 0 up to find my coliky friend coughing ~ away like he was trying to win a prize 0 or somethng. I looked around to find my sidekick and the Hittle lady looking P at me out of the corners of their eyes a like they didn't want to let me know that dI I wuz among those present. I went back to my seat and resolved right there to J let my sidekick look out for himself from then on. -USC Submit Articles Now !
