I FATHER I FOOLS TEACHER: \ - PROFESSOR FORGETS 1 EXAM c i Devoted Students in Consterna- ( tion As English Professor Arrives Forty Minutes Late * | "But, doctor, that exam is cr'ieduled s for tomorrow morning!" ( "My dear professor, you must be j wrong, as your whole class has been c waiting for you for the last thirty minutes." With these remarks the other t faculty member hung up the receiver of his telephone. j Fearing that he might be mistaken after all, the sleepy-eyed pedagogue hur- c riedly substitued his flowing flannels for ^ oxon garb. It was only a few minutes later that j this exponent of Shakespeare and all hat's poetical appeared somewhat groggily before his class, which had waited t fifty minutes for their beloved instruc- e tor to emerge from the well-known arms 1 of Morpheus. 1 "Believe it or not," Professor Joe Norwood had failed to consult the catalog t concerning the dates of examinations in j his classes last June! { ENGLISH SEMINAR i MEETS THURSDAY i Professors Wauchope and Smith , Lecture to Graduate Students Concerning Theses f ?? .

I cjw STUDENT OWNS \i sui VETERAN RACER infc I sin HELLO LADY" ON CAMPUS orc . J T-? reI1 Famous Russian Greyhound Possessed by J. M. Lesesne Sub- I ^ ject of Much Conjecture Ch a r Many students of the University ^ lave seen the graceful slender black I ^ log that for the last week or so has mu >een strolling around the campus. Often ouJ he animal has been seen waiting ex- I cre jectantly in front of the chapel or at I jov he door of one of the numerous build- I, ngs around the University campus. LOI Varied have been the conjectures to I vliat manner of dog this was and who I ts owner might be. The canine was p jbviously not of the custom built type I isually found in this region. She was I :oal black with white feet. She was L> ong and slender -with a sensitive inelligent face. ' ieI1 Now the clouds of mystery which mo iurrounded the dog are parting. The cai log is a full-blooded Russian greylound and his owner is J. M. Lesesne if Pickens, a student at the University. sc When interviewed on the subject of I lis prized possession, Mr. Lesesne dug I n his pocket and drew, forth a most ^ ormal looking document with much I ingraving and many seals. This turned ^ ?ut to be the pedigree of "Hello Lady," g. or that is the dog's full name (though he is called "Lady" by those who I mown her most intimately). Ljc : "Hello Lady" has a glorious history >ehind her. Last winter Mr. Lesesne pr< intered her in the Miami Dog Kennel I H< i^aces. In two of these races "Hello an< _,ady" came home with first place. Mr. Lesesne says that "Lady" is now I ^1' oo old to race any more. She is five '101 fears old, having been born in 1925, )f illustrious parents. According to her iedigree, which is from the Inter- ac' national Greyhound Association at St. ve L,ouis, her parents were "Busy Ben" md "Goody Bey Lady." a } . na "Hello Lady" races no more, but now she resides near the University m. and perhaps ponders on her former ye triumphs. de; DAVIS SPEAKS J, ON ANNIVERSARY' A1 Annual Oratorical Contest Will p,) Be Held Next Tuesday a" Night A Professor Henry C.

Last year this suite was idered by the famous Philadelphia mphony Orchestra. Phe fantastic story of the suite: On 5 ristmas Eve little Marie has received 5 lumber of wonderful gifts.
