Undaunted, however, Holbrook
kept on saving. He roomed with a
boy at the dormitory whose name
was Walter Hatt, a small bluster-
ing individual, with light blue eyes.
Hatt did not approve of Holbrook,
called him "chinchey," “tight.” But
the dislike was mutual. The big
country lad did not approve of

HEEDLESS DARING
During the next few weeks, Hol-
brook spent a greater part of his
time becoming oriented. He walked
around the square time after time,
gazing at the merchandise displayed
in the stores. He never tired of
admiring the stately proportions of
the courthouse, and the resoundant
notes of the huge clock mounted at
the top was a source of never-
ending wonder.
Too, he thought a lot about Jane
Jessup these days, but twenty
Giving credit where credit is due,
we realize after reading the Senior
Edition “Beans” that the only
thing about the old dorm news that
was good was the name.
In behalf of the boys at the dor-
mitory, to-wit: Carl, Jeff, and Dick,
we wish to inform certain nitwits
that it is not an inferiority complex
that keeps them from getting dates.
Rather it is the lack of personal
charm and magnetism. Hang that on
a limb.

Wad,” Lewis is openly sueing the
city, but the facts of the case are
enshrouded in mystery. However,
we feel that if Bowman would get
off his knees and quit talking so
much, he might have a chance to
collect damages.
A way has been found to touch
the heart of Dick Middleton, fair
maiden (?). Just write him some
poetry.

“Why, who is this?” came the

“It is Holbrook Smith. I’d like to

“But I don’t even know you,”
she answered, "Besides,_Ialready
