THE CRIME

Mongst beastly books and sighs and curses bloody!

But, come, thou goddess fair and free,

By men called Gay Festivity.

Haste thee, Joy, and bring with thee

Good Scotch Bootleg for a spree;

And damsels fair: the lusty jades

Shall breed forgetfulness of grades.

"Pitcher Harry Mullowney, ex-Eagle becomes' Oriole",--Boston Globe headline. A Darwin-Burbank Production!

There has been a leak somewhere. The dreadful secret of what really happened when the Law School gathered to cheer Dean Pound is now emblazoned on the pages of "Time", Encouraged, or maybe goaded; by this exposure, a law student suggests that the following advertisement be run in the next issue of the Harvard Law Review:

WANTED Experienced cheer leader to teach the Law School how many Harvards belong on a "regular" cheer, and exactly when to stop the "Rahs". At the mass meeting at Langdell Hall several days ago there was considerable difference of opinion on these minor points.

The Yale News is campaigning for the abolition of compulsory chapel. It is also understood that in the Fiji Islands they are still combatting cannibalism.

Playful note in the Announcement of Courses of Instruction: "Philosophy 27, Spinoza, the last of the Mediaevals. A study of the Ethica ordine geometrico demonstrata in the light of a hypothetically constructed Ethica more scholastico rabbinoque demonstrata."

Fascinating! And then what?

"Crime is rampant", say the priests. And why?

"The teaching of these profs." The beasts!
