Wheeeei! That isn’t a breese
whistling through my old dead
leaves, merely a sigh of relief now
that mid-terms are over. Now that
we can look back, things weren't so
tought this week. I did see many
of you buring the midnight oil sev¬
eral nights.
While glancing around at the
game last week. I saw Pete Hanna's
mother and father. Also "Spud"
Wallace, a former student (and
football . player) who plans to re¬
turn In January. We'll be looking
for you, Spud.
Perhaps the youngest attendant
at Dr. Lunceford's lecture is little
Gene Lunceford. I'm afraid Gene
could give some of us lessons in
how to pay attention in class.
Lynn Gross Is walking on air.
Come Saturday morning she will
head up Sewanee way to see Woody.
Have a nice time, Lynn.
Dra. Hardin and Stepp are con-
ventioning in Atlanta, Oa. Wish I
were a professor and could make
interesting trips. All I do is stay
arflund here and shed my leaves.
Congratulations to Hue Curtis,
Miss Air Reservist. 8ue sure docs a
nice Job of representing Howard in
various contests cause she always
comes through with flying colors.
Lb Richie baa had a hair out
and I sure do like it. Some people
have all the luck and have naturally
curly hair.
Congratulations are also In order
for Gaile Kniep, Sigma Nu Pledge
Sweetheart. I'm not the only one
who has noticed that long, red hair.
