One of the smallest swimming pools
in the state, 3 miles wide by 9 miles
long, will be instructed on the sod in
front of the gym, according to a report
from the legislature. The stupendous
amount of $1.91J4 has been appropriated
for this gigantic construction.

The new pool (not the game) will
have an over-production of bath
houses, just in case the customers do
not get to take a bath in pool. Ten
bran new showers will be put in the
men's house (designed by Chic Sales)
while five will be installed in the
wimmen's (designed by Mrs. Sales).
The reason for there only being five
showers in the femail house is that
they naturally take more baths and
won't need one when they get in front
of the gym. And besides, there are
plenty of showers over in the Jim.
There will be no bottom to the pool
on account of the fact that about all
the $1.92y? will be used in putting on
sides. There will be no tower either,
as the top of the Jim Nasium can be
used for this purpose.
The question has been raised as tc
what would happen if Madame Sweeney
and Coach Pauley would attempl
to enter the pool at the same time
1 he question is still being raised.

Dance Prof
Invents Game
Shannonski Mimskivitch, famous
authority on the light fantastic, in a
recent exhibition at the Y. M. C. A.
suddenly startled all spectators by performing
like a combination Hercules
and the "Man on the flying trapeze."
The famous professor has almost succeeded
in instituting a new and original
sport among his many admirers
on the campus. It is called "Catch as
catch can," the object is not to be
caught napping, if such is the case,
however, the floor is the recipient and
therefore, the winner. Few were the
occasions when the founder of this
new and already popular sport were
outwitted by this formidable opponent.
Catch as catch can owes its popularity,
to a great extent, to the fact that
both sexes can participate in it at one ,
and the same time. There is but little
needed in the way of apparatas, a ?
partner, a bottle of gin, a waxed boor
and a dance tune.

pleted in Flynn Hall on March 31 by
I Tappa Keg, national sot's fraternity
Of the many hundreds of applicants j
only 22 men could be chosen. Members
of the fraternity and the two '
judges of the campus have stated that
names failing to appear on this list
will be included on the third and
fourth teams.
The I Tappa Keg fraternity was
founded at the college of Hard
Knocks in 1900 and spread throughout
the United States and Canada as
soon as prohibition was put into effect
To become a member of this group an
applicant must be able to drink a quart
of whiskey and then stagger a flight of
stairs. If you're caught on the first
bounce it's O. K. O.
Included in the list of first and second

done themselves proud in being able to
