... Harold Rudnick and Hert
Young, apparently in a revengeful
mood after suspecting that Eric
Oppenheimer was responsible for
telling of their trips to Camder
(Birds I View last week), report
edly are getting even. According to
the story, they have answered the
letter of the Scottish girl who wrote
to Governor Thurmond requesting
him to help her find a husband,
They gave Eric's qualifications and
signed his name . . .
. . . An epidemic of mumps break
ing out and causing the annex at
the Infirmary to be filled up with
a boisterious crew. Ned Threatt
started it off Sunday, May 8, and
was still there Wednesday. He was
followed in quick succession by
Ken Baldwin, "Q" Metts, Bishop
Strickland, Zaeh Taylor, Herb
Martin, Al and Clarke Adickes,
Fletcher Dean, Bill Bruton, Dick
Singleton and Conrad Ehrhardt.
. . . By Saturday it was really
a sight to behold. Nobody had
shaved, except Fletcher Dean who
didn't need to, and the combina
tion of the swollen and unshaved
faces would have made a fine
picture, but even photographers
were prohibited. It was rumored
that Willie Heustess had the
mumps too, but as one of the in
mates said "He looked that way
naturally!" . . .
... Jerry Levine, being initiated
into a fraternity, spent the after
noon in the Columbia Hospital
masquerading as "Little Lulu." He
wore a very short dress, pigtails
and hat and cai ried a water pistol
with which he shot some 500 peo
ple. . . .
. . . Prof. Hubert Spigner was
teaching an extension class Thurs
day night in Building "C" when
two of his "day-time" students
walked by. "Hi ya, Spike'," they
yelled in the open window. "Spike",
as the affable English prof. is
known," interrupted his class to
call back, "Hi there, yourself!" . . .
. . . Music students stepping over
fallen plaster on their way to
classes for the second time in as
many months. Resident in Phi
Ep house telling of a wall caving
in the other day. Some person stat
ing they were taking bets as to
which ceiling would fall in first.
Most betters are placing their
money on room ten, but in the past
week there has been a large shift
to room nine. . .
. . . The "Mumps Boys" in the
Infirmary learned that the ceiling
had fallen in the male ward just
before the epidemic started. . . .

ever got a free meal....

"Well," came the reply, "by the
