KOLLEGE KNEWS Men and women are to be separated at the football games at the Univer sity of Colorado since the cheerlead ers have reached the conclusion that the females prevent their escorts from giving ftjl attention to the business of encouraging the team. -Topics, University of Va. According to observations Al Smith is undeniably the favorite of the col lege folk of the south. An unofficial compilation of results of straw votes held in several representative southern institutions gives Smith 1496 votes to Hoover's 1003. The margin is uncom fortably close, but wide enough to be decisive. It is interesting to note that in no instance was the Hoover vote greater than that for Smith. We wonder if any of our fair fe male contemporaries are as informed as a co-ed at Louisana State Univer sity who inquired upon being presented with a Smith-Hoover ballot for an in dication of her choice, "What's this for?" "To vote on," was the enswer. "To vote for whom?" she asked. "Oh I the president-it is just for an experiment to get the student vote." "Well, which one is the most prom inent on the campus? You know I don't know anything about either one of them." , "College men and women are made the objects of a great many jokes, but there is one phase of their life which cannot be treated lightly. That is the college friendships. One seldom realizes the value of a friendship until the ties are broken. After three months of absence from the campus and fellow students it is easy to see the importance with which everyone regards friendships. There is something fine about any friendship. The spirit of self-sacrifice which exists makes one feel its su preme importance. But considering all walks of life we would say that col lege friendships are the most steadfast of all.-The Heel. The following item taken from the Maroon and Gold of Elon College may be taken by some of the profes sors of this institution as a very good suggestion. It seems that this is not the only University in the world where instructors save their most im portant statements until about two minutes after the gong has sounded. "It is an understanding between stu dents and faculty that class attitude is a big factor in scholastic averages. When the gong sounds for change of classes and the students are kept overtime causing them to arrive late for the next class; it irritates the professor of that class and causes him to have a bad impression of the student coming in tardy. The student who is punctual for class at all times is also irritated; and if it should be the first class of the day it seems as if everything has started off wrong. A professor in turn is more respected when he dis misses his classes promptly. It would he very rude for a student to walk out of class when the gong sounds without being excused by the profesnor. But-what is to be done ?" Carolina Graduate Jailed In California Because he threw tup his hands, pulled out his shirt, yelled at the top of his lungs, had a shirt-tail parade of one and generally became a disturber of the peace as a result of Carolina's victory over Chicago, a graduate of last year's class Phi Beta Kappa and Chanticleer was jailed in Los Angeles a week ago. It seems that this gentlemen became over enthusiastic and when a cop came to get him, he told the minion of the Cali fornia law just what he thought of him and also that Carolina was "the thing." It also seems that the "cop" didn't ap prove of the Carolinians conduct and off of bread, water and cold peas, this the consequences was that he subsisted The Very Idea! By Bill Gaines Do you remember when : Pants were something that only 'men wore? A schooner was not only a ship, but a container? A man could smoke a cigarette and not be considered effeminate? Congress gaiters did not necessarily indicate a Congressman? A leg was a spectacle? Brains were an asset and the "gift of gab" a handicap? Corn meant a vegetable product? Do you remember when.----? No? Well, neither do I but it does fill space to talk about it. It's not the school but it's the principle of the hot-dern thing. It is admitted that flowers are lovely in the Springtime; that birds are honey tongted individuals; that brooks are things of joy forever; that the sweet breezes oozing through the atmosphere possess the power to sooth the soul of man; that only God can make a tree; that Chicago owns a stockyard; that the Good Old Man Upstairs is omnipotent; that raven tresses and haunting eycs form a powerful combination; that th4 wild sea waves are indeed wild; that savage blacks get muddy in the Cono; and, finally, that the shades of n;ght do eventually fall.

The beds were wreck:. Sheets and blankets draped listlessly from the chandeliers. Trunks wcre broken open and their contents scat tered from attic to cellar. On the floo, lay a heterogeneous mass of shoes, hate, coats, and (shall it be said?) negligeei. One poor freshman's bed had been de molished and the debris stacked in the middle of the room in the form of a gigantic cross.

After an agonizing op eration the lights were restored and the scene laid bare. Then things commenced to happen. Eerie screams rent the air. Gasps of amazement were metamorpho sised into howls of anguish and epithets of anger. To quote "They screamed, they cussed and they : lualled." They even blamed it on the upperclassmen.

A few more sentimental ones resorted to tears and sat stupified among their souvenirs. Two poor wronged lit t:e things crept to the front steps of the building and prayed for an hour. The upperclassmen considered it a good joke and a proper initiation into college l:fe. The freshmen didn't think so, as was mentioned before. The ma tron in a kind and sympathetic voice tried to console the victims, at the same time gently rebuking the offenders. The maids swore under their breath at the additional work the next morning.
