The early start that "Ole Man Winter" got last week displeased a lot of university of Utah stu dents, but ski enthusiasts were happy, and at least two other students got a bigger kick out of the snow than the one proverbially dispensed by tSie Missouri mule. They were Haig Arakillan from southern California and William Han, Hawaiian football man. Both live in a boarding house for men near the Univera- ity. It seems that fellow roomers, knowing the men had never seen snow, planted huge balls of the stuff on the beds of the uninitiated, who were sleeping. Surprise of the drenched sleepers can better be described than quoted. But it didn't take the tropic- bred students long to get into the spirit of winter. Before the day was over, each had been given a hearty facial with a "cold scream" oase, and monuments to each had arisen at the foot of d the campus In the form of snowmen. Right now the visiting students like winter fine. But they don't know how long they can "take" the "personality messages" they get nearly every day.
