That his great ambition is to write
jus, one column after receiving his
diploma.
An old stude is one who can remem
ber when trash was something that
went into garbage cans instead of be

no name attached.
Multitudinous- praises be to Allah
and other exclamations of pleasure, as
one of the ."faithful" would say. We
learned that at least two people read
this column, the erudite author who
signed herself, himself or itself as the
case may be, "A Co-ed," and us. Yes,
we read our own work. Being slightly
numb just north of the tonsils we can
appreciate this type of writing if we
did write it ourself. "Dumb" as .the
writer described us, why we're so dumb
we're afraid that if we had just one
little thought we'd be half-witted.
Anyhow, we beg the forgiveness of
any of the co-eds whose "toes have
been stepped upon" in this column.
Any co-ed, especially the author of the
letter to the "Open Forum" will be
permitted to indulge in the pastime of
taking just as many jabs at the dumb
author of this column as they desire
line or "bucket-brigade" will form on
the right. No pushing-shove gently
backward and forward making a cir
cular motion if possible, square the
corners and look cute. Can't you
smile? That's just fine. Thanks.
