Q Cow. Ox Campuo ab (Author of "I Was a Teen-age Dwarf", "The Many Loves of Dobie Gilis", etc.) COMMITTEES: AN AGONIZING RE-APPRAISAL To those of you who etay out of your student government because you believe the committee system is just an excuse for inaction, let me cite an example to prove that a committee, properly led and directed, can be a great force for good. Last week the Student Council met at the Duluth College of Veterinary Medicine and Belles Lettres to discuss purchasing a new doormat for the students union. It was, I assure you, a desperate problem because Sherwin K. Sigafoos, janitor of the students union, threatened flatly to quit unless a new doormat C was installed immediately. "I'm sick and tired of mopping that dirty old floor," said Mr. Sigafoos, sobbing convulsively. (Mr. Sigafoos, once a jolly outgoing sort, has been crying almost r steadily since the recent death of his pet wart hog who had i been his constant companion for 22 years. Actually, Mr. Sigafoos is much better off without the wart hog, who tusked him viciously at least once a day, but a companionship of 22 years t is, I suppose, not lightly relinquished. The college tried to give Mr. Sigafoos a new wart hog-a frisky little fellow with floppy ears and a waggly tail-but Mr. Sigafoos only turned his back and cried the harder.) But I digress. The Student Council met, discussed the door mat for eight or ten hours, andl then referred it to a committee. There were some who scoffed then and said nothing would Bever be heard of the doormat again, but they reckoned without Invictus Millstone. Invictus Millstone, chairman of the doormat committee, was a man of action-lithe and lean and keen and, naturally, a smoker of Marlboro Cigarettes. Why do I say "naturally"? Because, dear friends, active men and women don't have time to brood and bumble about their cigarettes. They need to be certain. They must have perfect confidence that each time they light up they will get the same gratifying flavor, the same Selectrate filter, the same soft soft-pack, the same flip top flip-top box. In brief, dear friends, they need to be sure it's Marlboro- for if ever a smoke was true and trusty, it's Marlboro. Get some soon. Get matches too, because true and trusty though Marlboros are, your pleasure will be somewhat limited unless you light them. Well sir, Invictus Millstone chaired his doormat committee with such vigor and dispatch that when the Student Council met only one week later, he was able to rise and deliver the following recommendations: 1. That the college build new schools of botany, hydraulic engineering, tropical medicine, Indo-Germanic languages, and millinery. 2. That the college drop football, put a roof on the stadium. and turn it into a low-cost housing project for married students. 3. That the college raise faculty salaries by $5000 per year across the board. 4. That the college secede from the United States. 5. That the question of a doormat for the students union be referred to a subcommittee. 8o let us hear no more defeatist talk about the committee systemi. It can be made to work! I0e aa ame You don't need a committee to tell you how good MO ariberoe are. You just need youarself, a Marlboro, and a set of taste buds. Buy some Marlboros soon at your favorite tobacco enunter. 000 40 Clems BY ARONEL FISCHOFF Sperts Writer A reporter was sent up into the oothills to get an accurate report n our next opponents, the Clem on Cows. It was hoped to see the ilayers at practice, but when our eporter arrived, all the Clemson tes were out doing their chores. The quarterbacks Jim Parker bfnd Joe Anderson, were slopping he hogs.

A shoulder injury stopped urn at the beginning of the year, >oth mentally and physically, but uow he has returned to top form. roe Anderson is an able backup Lnd in fact, plays almost as much Ls Parker; Anderson finished 2nd >n offense last year.

This year the Tigers have man aged to win five games, but the only really good team they have Jefeated was Maryland and they beat the Terps with a terrific last quarter. Clemson has bowed to Georgia Tech, Georgia, Duke and Auburn. The last three games came in Death Valley, the first time the Bengals had ever lost more than one game in a row. The ..eam is tough, though, the sched ule was pretty hard and it will be a tough game. Actually, the Tigers had a tougher time in the cities on their road trips. They were fascinated by many "new"~ inventions, includ ing women, and therefore were late in getting to the stadiums.

The backs for Pika -- Kenny Rhea, Robby Stanford, and Dickie Smith -- proved to be valuable as sets when their team downed Phi Delta Beta by 28-0. Sigma Chi, which features a hard charging line play, just couldn't q u i t scoring against Lambda Chi (48-0). The victors have a basic running attack, but contain a serious passing threat in the form of their quarterback Tony McCreight and several good pass receivers. Zone 6 came in over Zone 4 with a score of 33-13, and Zone 11 stomped Zone 2 by 7-0. Lambda Chi was again defeated this week, this time by SPE. The winners brought in a score of 46-6.
