Show Clubs Plan Final Outings For Gaudy Spring Season Lambda Delta Sigma Utilizing the Chinese-no-peekee ballot system, Lambda Delta Sigma elected next year's officers to head the religious social group. Elections were run off at the Institute Building at 7:30 p.m., May 2, and then the group left for the "Tropical Cafe" in Brigham City to eat and hear the results. The show was almost stolen from the hands of the outgoing officers by instructors Odell Stevenson and "Uncle Nick" Van Alfen. Mr. Stevenson and Mr. Van Alfen were presented with engraved pen and pencil sets, and when asked to say a few words, began a series of tales joshing each other. That kicked off the ball for the evening. The officers for next year are: Treasurer, Ray Bramble; Secretary, Carol Metters; Vice Presidents, Jerry Miller and Joan Brown; President, Lyle Davis and Diane Riplinger. The announcements were particularly funny due to the sharpened wits of the group. Mr. Stevenson, reputed fast-wit, said, "It's not safe to open your mouth or even to keep it closed." Phoenix On behalf of Excelsior and Sigma, Phoenix would like to extend an apology to the participating girls' clubs for the late start of the five-club party held April 30 in the ballroom.

We GIVE GOLD STRIKE STAMPS n n n t mm Iem! (ACP) Holy Cross College College Crusader Jim Suelzer "Today, bridge is regarded as almost a social necessity. It is estimated there are 25 million bridge players in the United States." That is what The Information Please Almanac has to say about bridge. My opinion of it is somewhat different. I think that bridge should be eliminated on the grounds that it is a social evil. In the early medieval period, shuffleboard was outlawed because the men spent more time playing shuffleboard than they did practicing archery, and the kings thought an able army more desirable than a top-notch shuffleboard team. This example will give a good general notion of what should be done with blidge. The facility with which bridge can work itself into one's daily existence is phenomenal, and is surpassed only by smoking, as sheer habit-forming. It can affect a change in a person in a comparatively short time. PERHAPS SOME readers are familiar with the nice young girl who goes away to college and returns as a perpetually bored, pseudo-sophisticate. This resulted from spending all her spare time playing bridge with evil companions. . . I must, however, admit my grudging admiration for the poise and the indifference to surroundings which mark the bridge addict. The Hollywood documentary of the sinking of the Titanic showed passengers playing bridge at a time when more normal persons were vesting themselves in kapok and contemplating a moonlight dip . . . Nevertheless, it must be ack nowledged that bridge has its ad vantages. The average bridge game occupies little more space than a medium-sized mud puddle. IT IS LOW enough to the ground that two people can easily talk over the heads of the participants. As a matter of fact, it can be stated as a general principle that it is not at all hard to talk over the head of a bridge player. Bridge is a quiet game, yet it has all the super-charged excitement and fierce competition of a game of mumbly-peg. It develops keen powers of analysis, and an intuitive instinct that can quickly strip the Pinky Lee Show of all its mental challenge. But, best of all, bridge reduces to virtual silence a group of people who, judging by their card-playing tenacity, would be insuf BIG SALE RECORDS ALL 78s 1 for Union 76 Piiddes? ferable, argumentative bores if turned loose in normal society. HELP STAMP out bridge! You can do your part by destroying every pad of paper marked "We" and "They." When your host suggests bridge, set the group on their heels with a burst of impassioned denouncement . . . One important thiug, though, don't bother writing your conr gressman. What do you think they do with all their spare time in Washington? Quench Me Deadly (ACP) University of Minnesota Daily It was a warm, stagnant night . . . no breeze, no' moon. And very late. Silently he moved along the sidewalk past blackened dormitories. The others were all asleep; but he was restless, and annoying pang in the pit of his stomach. After a quick glance behind, he approached the half-open doorway of a darkened building. He paused, fumbling in his pocket. Then, making no sound, he entered the gloomy interior and was enveloped in shadows. A solitary click . . . then silence. Suddenly there were shouts from inside: "Thief! Robber!" A fist slammed out in the darkness, connecting solidly, noisely with its target. A grunt, muffled groan. The pounding blows intensified. Between thuds violent courses split the air. A foot stamped hard, driven by powerful leg muscles; and there was a short, pleading cry. Then it was over. For a moment he lingered in the doorway, leaning on the frame for support. Then he shuffled unsteadily out into the street, his raw, skinned knuckles visible in the yellow illumination given off by the street light. Head hung low, shoulders slouched, he walked dejectedly down the street and into the night, seeming not to know where to go, what to do. Later in the week maintenance men arrived to adjust the faulty mechanism of the large red machine so that it would operate properly, dispensing a bottle of Coca-Cola whenever a dime was inserted in the coin slot. $1.00 RECORD BAR ' |
