in kollege hut most important to let
ou know the .vigger.ite gossip.
P.i our h.isketh.dl te.un .lin't heen
doing so well uith the pre eonferenco
g.imes. However me thought we're
going to do hetter since Co.ieh Hill h.is
patched up repairs. V were in hor
rihle shape lor aw Idle. Whitis h.ul a
broken nose Langford a hurt ankle
Herman Moore a broken finger and
Brooks Doier was in the worst shape
cause he had a broken heart his
girl Iriend G.ile up and just (juit
him. However he (Doier) was the
star in a game and Gavle came acravvl-
ing back to the fold.
Speaking of these thoroughbred
athletes l'a there's a lellovv here
that's just plum got a little ole mav
crick fooled. I le's been a dragging
Beverly all over the place here at
kolleue and all the time he has not a
uitic staked out at home.
Ma ou remember me a telling ou
all nlxnit Horrid Pain's cover bov
I Ierman Moore? Well I guess I'll
have to take hack what wit said
Christinas about him and Judy. Why
that I Ierman is givin' them all fits.
1'irst its Jody then Ginger and then
Judy Beth Stevens he just sand
vv iches the blondes in between.
'I Iiis. all coulerence man Langlord
has more trouble with his women than
an old turkey hen with adopted thick
ens. Billy Tom 1'ielil told him that
Ann Self would break his heart but
nobody ever warned luiii about Nina
Barbee. Poor kid lie's alvvavs get-
tin' burned.
Pa you should have lie.ud Bosalind
Beene sing in chapel the other il.n.
She'll put a mockingbird to blushing.
None ol us country bovs had a chance
to see her alterwards though cause
Billy I'red Jay just up and monopoli
ed her. Pa that ai'nt the same thing
as priority like ou h.ul during the
war.
Prank Barnett done wrote and asked
June Wright to be a cummin' back lor
the 11 club "Sweetheart Supper" causes
Prank don't want to be tempted to take
Ann Sell or Paula Gee. T.un't bad
temptin' Pa.
GKn Bittick has done started that
"bit; citv" approach to these country
als. However Novella Bailev seems
to be a likin' it so 'tis alright I guess.
You know Ma Charlie Olson ha
done put his brand on Wanda Carral.
He swears he'll marry this one. I
remember the time pa said something
like that about a wild horse has he
got out of the hospital ct Mar
We gctt.i student council here that
don't do a whole lot but they put on
the doggonest program the other day.
Hverytime Bosalind Beene sang.
George McCorstin would swoon loud
enough for the whole audience to hear.
Zachie Kno still likes that Yankee
Ixiy's '49 ford despite the fact that
Betty Bdhngsley rides in it during the
week Zaciiie is just his one day a
week girl now.
You know 1 never wu one to gripe
a lot but the reason it cost ou so
much lor me to staj here is that I'm
charged lor the meals I don't eat. Ap
pears to me a lellovv would get a "ram
check" on that Sunday night supper
that's not served. We ain't so bad
off thought Pa in our dining hall.
Not like them athletes anvvvay. Ecrv
time they say just a little somethin' out
of the way the coaches are bound to
have it tellawom.incd to them and they
don't eat at all!
There shore is a lot a fellas takin'

could be on account that Vounette

The cold weather finally came and
with it same pretty colors of sweaters
skirts scarls mittens and coats.
Marvel Kendall always looks so pret
tv with her doy.il blue plaid skirt white
blouse and various colored scarfs. Also
her green sweater is an eve catcher.
Treva Oklesby looks very warm and
cut as she wears her brown and blue
plaid jumper with a brown sweater.
That bright ellow plaid blouse that
P.liabeth Scott wore the other day
certainly made a brftht spot in Dr.
I luff's office.
When I mention Nina Barbee I'll
just say that she looks sooo cute in all
ol her ddlerent sweaters and skirts. A
verv pretty skirt that she has is the
blue and silver metallic one with the
bustle effect.
Nita Pave Dillin is very tut in that
green plaid skirt and waistcoat. With
this she wears a white long sleeve
blouse.
Bed is a striking color especially
when Bonnie Swart wears her red
corduroy dress and Patsy Landry looks
nice when she wears her identical
gray one.
Alice Morrow the new girl who
ives at 31U urove lias a veiv cuii;
1 . . .! 1 ..' i ...
green coriluroy skui wiin large nip
pockets. With this she wears a green.
rose and white plaid packet.
Beverly Wilson attracts much at-
tention when she wears that bright
rose corduroy suit or her brown shirt
beige sweater and brown scarf.
A brown nlaid shirt brown sweat
er and white blouse made Elouise
Boberts look very cute last week when
the A Capella choir sang.
So much for the girls. These boys
are beginning to wear as bright colors
as the girls.
Max Ilulse looks quite a Ireshman
with that red plaid shirt. It's really
pretty. Max and it looks nice on you
with our blue eyes and blonde hair.
1 think that Tom Small bout-lit that
paid hat to attract attention and 1
think he has succeeded. Keep vv far
ms' it I om yours isn t me urigim-M.
Speaking of bright colors that red
sweater that E. I Lewis wears is
just too loud. G(x)dness it almost puts
vour eves out!
Then there is George Saenz who
wears that verv britiht ureen shirt. The
hovs certainly no in for louder colors
r li.i ii the eirls.
These are just a lew ot the styles
and colors of the Howard Payne stu-
dents. Take a look around and ou
will lx! able to see the pretty costumes
instead of having to read about it.

sorship of the Junior Chamber of Com

a play about a pair of e.x GI's and their
loves. 'I hey all got tangled up with
the War Department a United States
senator and an army general; and the
issue was constantly in doubt until the
in.il curtain. The ending was a hap-
py one however.
The other play which was present-
ed fuesday night was George Benard
Shaw's famed light comedy "Arms
and the Man." This play is one of
the most popular in the Barter reper-
tory and has bad the distinction of be-
ing the only Barter production which
has toured lor three seasons.
Howard Payne was well represented
in tlie audiences at tne two prcxtuc-
tions because the Barter Players won
tre student body's admiration when
