The reorganized University Information Desk established a month ago with quarters in the south end of University Hall has compiled statistics on the several hundred questions which have already been telephoned in. The results show that three-fourths of the inquiries have been for the addresses and phone numbers of students and instructors of the University. Of the remaining quarter, ten percent have been reluctantly placed in the category of foolish questions by the man in charge of the desk and the other 15 percent are labelled as miscellaneous.

Besides answering verbal questions the Information Desk is the recipient of all written requests for information. The most unusual specimen of this type was received last week addressed to the "Harvard Lore of You". This momentarily baffled even the omniscient mind of the Information Desk until the meaning was made clear by an inquiry concurring the Harvard Law Review made by a person with a strong New England accent. The letter was from a prominent firm of lawyers and it is supposed that the mistake came in dictation on a too literal acceptance of super fluonser's".

Other questions which have been ranked in the happily smallest percentage of the group, are such as "How many athletic H's did Theodore Roosevelt win while at Harvard?" "Is Yiddish a language or a dialect?" "Where is Walla Walla?" One of the most, unusual requests came as a the result of Professor De Wolfe's return to Belgium after completing his lecture course of the first half year. The person inquiring was under the impression that Professor De Wolfe had returned to see Cardinal Mercier before the death of the Belgian prelate and wished to know if he had arrived in time.
