Inside Dope By Bonnie Kate Barnes Here goes some inside dope on one of Carolina's most popular professors. He is very sensitive and prudent with one of those traditional Irish tempers. The fact that he ^ one of the University's most popular professors may be accounted for by the fact that he is so fond of out-door sports; he should be an excellent dancer, but perhaps he is too lazy?and he is colossally lazy. In fact his philosophy of life is: 'iNever rush through life bccause you will never get through it alive anyway." By the way, he has an exalted opinion of H'. Babcock, but the opinion is quite justified, for his intelligence is far above the average, but his ambi- , tions are surprisingly low, in fact almost nil. After Dr. Babcock is in the wrong profession; lie should be in the diplomatic service. This would suit him admirably-with his natural inclination for an idle life, his charm, his knack of saying the right thing at the right moment?all these qualities combined with his intelligence should assure an overwhelming success in this field. In addition to this, he is not very credulous; this would be valuable? none of the other diplomats could put any thing over on him. Dr. Babcock is a queer mixture of an idealist predominating?he day dreams idealist predominating-he day dreams' and day dreams and does very little about it. He is invariably late; his second motto is: "Never do to-day what you can put off until tomorrow." He is generous?with every thing except "A's". Some more inside stuff?he is highly susceptible to fiattery and remember he is conceited. St. Nick's Coat Hooked By Co-Ed Santa Claus is now without an overcoat! A Carolina co-ed is to blame for this sad state of affairs. While this Game pullet was at home in Virginia during the holidays, Santa paid her a visit. Most unthoughtful of the old gentleman, she pickpocketed his overcoat. Now on the coldest days of this mild winter you may see small parts of her " sticking out of an immense white cs- 1 kimo coat with black stripes. If San- I ta wasn't such an immense old fellow, | our co-cd might have gold-dug a bet- ' ter fit. 1 Vu. s. o. "Did Annabelle marry for love or < money?" J "She married a college professor."
