Army ROTC'S
Shocking
Assault
by Cadet Lieutenant Major
Colonel Slipperyslop
Yeah, I was there. I was there the day the
Old Man came through-the dirty, stinking, grimy,
sweaty, lying, cheating, stealing, creeping, bitter.
underhanded, sidewinding day that was the Old
Man's most brilliant hour. Yeah. I was there all
right. I can look back now across the span of
time and remember it like it was yesterday. Part-
ly, I guess, because of the impact of the thing,
partly because of the bigness of the thing, but
mainly because it was yesterday that it happened,
by George.
Me? Call me Ringo. Spike Ringo. I hate that
name. Every time the platoon sergeant calls out
my name the boys all hit me with spikes. They
think it's an order. Some day I'm going to change
my name to Pay Ringo.
I remember that day. I was lounging around
the Army ROTC gunshed with the guys in my pla-
toon. It was a stinking, dirty gunshed. It was a
grimy, sweaty platoon. It was a scrounging loung-
ing. Times were tough.
We had been on this underhanded, bitter, for-
saken outpost for nearly ten minutes now, and
some of the guys were getting homesick. After a
semester and a half of Army ROTC I could tell
the signs pretty well. They were petitioning out
of the course.
"Quit petitioning out of the course and listen
for a. minute, grimy, sweating platoon," I said,
with an attempt at cheerfulness. "We won't be
out on this post long. Why, before you know it the
bell will ring and we'll be on our way to our next
class. How 'bout it whaddaya say there hey fel-
las there boy?" (I was trying to create a father
image.)
One of the rookies, a thin guy named Stanko-
lic jumped out of the mul puddle in which he
had been wallowing and stumbled over to where
I was crouched. "Ivehaddanoughathiscrudystinking-
stinkcrudcruddystinkstinkstink cruddystincrud!" he
slobbered through clenched teeth. Stan had seen
a lot of war movies, but wasn't too hot with the
dramatic line. He pulled a handful of demerit
slips from a grimy pocket and methodically choked
to death on them. I pretended not to notice. Stan
was troubled about something, and it was best to
let him work it out with himself.
A platoon sergeant came crawling up through
the darkness toward our grimy slobbering group.
I could smell trouble. "Hey!" he whispered. "Hey!"
he crawled a little closer and I could see he had
a slide rule wound in the left hip. "Hey!" he said
again. "Spike Ringo!" Fifteen spikes hit me at
once, adding an aura of matted blood to the al-
ready grimy scene. I decided I had been right
about smelling trouble. "Forgot to say 'May I',
fellows," I quipped, deciding a little homespun
humor would help the situation. I nonchalantly
kicked Stan's body into a manhole (bad for morale)
and said "Ringo over here." A fat lady came over,
checked my card, and handed me 75 cents. "I said,
'Ringo', not 'Bingo'," I said. I later wished I hadn't.
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
"Old Man wants to see you, Ringo," winced
the sergeant. :'Say it's important. Says - Ulllllch."
He dropped his face in the realistic muck.
As I splashed through the night mire and
grime to the Old Man's quarters, many questions
flashed through my mind. Why would the Old Man
want to see me? Why would it be important? Why
would he want to say 'Ulllllllch???'
"Ulllllch," said the Old Man as I staggered
sweatily through the bullet-riddled door to the
ROTC officer's quarters. "I have an upset stomach,
pain of neuritis, neuralgia. Tension is putting
nerves on edge. I feel dull, depressed."
"Have you tried Bufferin?" I asked, pulling
a bottle from my torn shirt. I broke it on an old
portrait of General J. J. Pierce and amputated
his stomach with one of the pieces. "That should
take care of your upset stomach, Sir," I said bright-
ly.
"I feel better already," said the Old Man,
smiling. Two small veins in his cheeks popped.
It was his first smile in thirteen years. "A man
lets the years creep up on a man," he observed.
"You must be Ringo," he continued. "Spike Rin-
go."
"Right, Sir," I replied, removing several
spikes from the small of my back. (At least they
were laying off with the head business.)
The Old Man looked at me. I could see the
tension in his eyes. The lines in his government-
approved face were drawn tight. Unable to resist
the impulse, I reached over and played a few bars
from "Madame Butterfly" on the tightly-drawn
wrinkles around his eyes. I thought he would take
offense, but he merely said, "I'm proud to know
that some of my men got a little culture in 'em."
He wiped his hand on his mouth (in case some-
body wanted to make a movie out of this particu-
lar episode it would be a fitting gesture) and
crawled on his stomach over to a large wall map.
(The enemy was everywhere in those days.)
"You are doubtless familiar with the terrain,
Ringo," he said, in the cool, icy tones that reminded
a man of a troubled radiator, pointed to the map
of the world with his map-of-the-world-pointing-
to stick. (He didn't have a map of the campus
available, but copyright laws demand at least one
map scene in every war story.)
"The problem is this," he continued. "The
Imperial Administration of the University of Mis-
souri has deliberately and without warning gone
an hauled off and cancelled the Military Ball!"
(I was shocked. My elbow was in the open socket.
I pulled my elbow out and some of the shock began
to disappear.) I said, numbly, "You ought to do
something about that open socket."
"I intend to do something, Ringo," he said
fiercely. "I intend to send a task force to Jesse
Hall - that's about here on the map - and force
them into an Unconditional surrender of Rockwall
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
Gym. We need men - brave, sweaty, grimy, hairy,
bloody, stinking, crawling, tough men, Ringo, and
I'm asking you to lead them. It will take a lot of
grime and sweat and blood and stuff like that,
but I think you can do it. If you can, it will be
my most brilliant Hour."
I pondered this a moment. "Most authorities,"
I said thoughtfully, "recommend a periodic inspec-
tion of the household to guard against such dan-
gers as open sockets. It cuts down on fires, too."
"You'll leave early in the morning," said the
Old Man. "You'll be excused from drill. Take
plenty of food. Greasy food. Be sure to do a lot
of crawling around and sumbling and grimacing
and looking through binoculars. You got all that?"
I looked him in the eye, my voice filled with
emotion. "Overloading sockets can also be a cause
of home fires," I said.
I turned and opened the door. My sweating
eyes looked out over the still post, the mud wav-
ing in the cooling February breeze. Somehow I
knew things were going to work out all right. You
know - you get those feelings. Yeah - things
were going to work out all right. Yep. The Old
Man had just stuck his finger in the open socket.
It was his most brilliant hour.

Flesh was torn from
My Body By Savage,
Maneating Student
Union Pigeons
As Told to Tommie Woolf
It was high noon. The heat was
unbearable. The ominous sound of
bells pounded in my ears. I asked
myself why had I, Valerina Volup-
tuous, volunteered as a USO per-
former to keep the expedition
members happy on this dangerous
trek into savage flesh-eating pig-
eon country? Oh, foolish, foolish
one, I cried.
The expedition halted, Dr.
Hughes, the leader, approaches me
now. "Valerina, my dear," he leers,
"and, how are you taking the
heat?" he brethes.
My body pulsated nervously, my
heart pounding wildly as I replied
haltingly, "You need a MAN'S de-
oderant, buddy."
I felt badly about repulsing the
professor's advances after all he
wasn't such a bad guy. If only he
would learn that I'm not gullible
enough to believe his story that I
should give my body to science.
There's Harlan Hormoe now
feeding the giant pack cockroaches
that we captured in the Underpass
country and tamed. What a man.
If only he knew how I want him,
need him, hunger for him. Here
he comes now. Play it cool, Val,
and watch the sparks of lust kin-
dle in his eyes.
I leaned back on the crusty
rock, my thin blouse straining
with downy-soft burdens, my right
leg bent into an alluring position,
as my short skirt struggled to stay
together.
Harlan said, "It's about dinner
time, Miss Voluptuous. What'll you
have salt pork and beans or beans
and salt pork." He looked tired as
SHOWME. FEBRUARY, 1961
he asked himself constantly, "What
kind of a jerk are you to try to
take this expedition through sav-
age flesh-eating pigeon country?"
I shifted my right hip with a las-
civious twitch - What a man!
I'll bet he wishes he could know
me better. See how his eyes spar-
kle as he looks appreciatingly at
the profile of my made-in-form.
Harlan thinks, "She's 35 if she's
a day. What a pig. The native
cook's got more sex appeal."
"Harlan," I said.
"Yes, Miss Voluptuous."
"Don't call me Miss Voluptuous.
My name is Val."
"Probably for Prince Valiant,"
Harlan thought.
"Okay, Miss Voluptuous," he re-
plied aloud. "You'd better put
some good clothes on for tonight.
It's formal and there ain't much
left of that shirt you got on." So,
with these kind, loving words he
left.
Later
We were getting closer to sav-
age flesh-eating pigeon country. I
was reaching a crisis. The heat was
unbearable and I was running out
of cologne. I sent a native boy out
for some. After all it was only 450
miles to the nearest drugstore.
Suddenly, I heard savage cries
above me. I had wandered away
from the main party. The sky was
black with beating wings. Was it
the savage flesh-eating pigeons?
No, it was only giant wasps car-
rying captured elephants back to
their homes.
Then suddenly, Harlan was at
my side. His strong sun-bronzed
arms encircled my narrow waist.
His hot lips searched for my
mouth, skampered down my neck
and I tried to control the heat of
impending lust. I had been wait-
ing a long time at at last we were
alone and he wanted me. My
breasts heaved with passion as he
his search hands sought and found
willing consent. "Harlan what
made you wait so long," I panted
raggedly.
"It was that damned cologne you
use," he spat. "Gawd, what a
stench."
Later, as I stepped out of my
bath onto the grass I thought -
how soft jungle foliage is.
I had just stepped out of my
portable shower and my body
shimmered alluringly. The native
boy's eyes shone with lust. I met
his lustful stare coldly and draped
a towel over my body. He kept on
staring and broke into a wide
knowing smile - mainly because
the towel had a big hole in the
middle. I grabbed another towel
and snatched the cologne he had
brought from his hand. He turned
to depart. "What a minute, Whip,"
I called "What's with you any-
way. You know I don't use this
brand. Get me Allure, you idiot,"
and I flung the bottle at him.
(I see no practical value in con-
tinuing this story per se since the
rest is just about sex and lust
and all that mushy stuff with lurid
descriptions of body contact, which,
of course, no one is interested in:
The Editor. Oh, yes, the pigeons
are never seen. They were elusive
little devils and the expedition was
a miserable flop.)

I Was Trapped
Inside Johnston
Hall by a
Love-Hungry
Goddess
By Norm DePlume
"Then I realized that I was trapped -
boxed in! I had come in through the only door
to the laundry room, and a horde of hysteri-
cal females was about to come bursting
through it. Where could I hide? No big waste
cans, no closets, and the dryers just weren't
my size . . ."
It all started that night when I went to John-
ston Hall to pick up Eldora for the St. Vitus' Day
Dance. I was no later than usual, and after buz-
zing her room I wandered up the East Corridor -
or maybe it was the West Corridor, I'm not sure
which - and sat down in a comfortable lounge
chair to wait. Eldora was later than usual. I must
confess that I dozed off over a copy of Maneater
that had been decomposing on the coffee table;
I was aroused shortly by an animated conversa-
tion coming from around a corner, and, assuming
that my date was on her way, I tried to clear my
foggy brain as I walked up the hall to meet her.
Approaching the feminine voices, I caught a bit
of the conversation.
"Whatver happened to old Alfred?"
"You mean the night watchman? He got fired
last week when they caught him sleeping in his
little room with . . .all the doors unlocked."
Suddenly I saw the two girls. Neither one was
Eldora.- They broke off their chatter in mid-sen-
tence and stared at me as if I were a man from
Mars. All at once I realized blushingly that I had
wandered too far. I tried to talk my way out.
"Is Eldora Phlugg . . uh . . . er . . . coming?"
The girls were still staring, but their gazes had
turned from surprise to a look that I hadn't seen
10
since Dr. Daniels' class in Elementary Hypnotism
The girls came toward me with an almost fluid
movement. I found myself powerless to resist as
one took each arm and led me up four flights of
stairs. Even now I can recall only vaguely what
they said in voices that seemed to come from a
thousand miles away as we climbed step after
step.
"Resistence is useless. You must do as we tell
you."
"Your date for tonight is off. You are the
chosen one to be the annual sacrifice to our god-
dess of romance."
"You will spend this evening with our ack-
nowledged leader, who never allows any boy
to speak of love to her except on this special night."
By this time we were walking down a cor-
ridor on the top floor of Johnston Hall. Girls
were standing at attention on both sides with
glazed eyes and blank expressions. We stopped
beside an unnumbered door which swung open as
if by magic. There she was, the goddess of ro-
mance: quivvering with emotion as she sat in
the midst of her beautiful attendants, the most
repulsive old housemother I've ever
seen. She was dressed i na queer purple dress
with a big imitation flower at the throat. Her hair
was bleached a murky yellow and her face re-
sembled a relief map of the Hink. All in all, she
looked like a cross between a Harpy and one of
the little old women that sit behind the desks in
the Stephens dorm lobbies. She gave orders to
various girls through a pudgy redhead whom I
recognized as a celebrated make-out, and whom
she addressed as "Honey" or just plain "Hon."
Suddenly it came to me who these two characters
were: the notorious "Mother Crater" and "Fats
Blasterson, the Fastest Hon in the West Center."
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
Coming to my senses, I broke away from my
two guards and ran down the hall with at least a
hundred shrieking girls at my heels, and Mother
Crater's cracked baritone audible above the whole
din yelling, "Bring him back - alive!"
I was gaining steadily on the mob, but the
end of the hall was rapidly approaching. Flying
through a door without a second thought, I found
myself in the laundry room. Two girls, evidently
unaware of the attempted sacrifice to the love-
starved housemother, were so shocked by my en-
trance that they dropped their wash bundles and
ran. Their clothes were strewn across the floor
blouses, socks, and a couple of Playtex . .
. rubber gloves that kept them from getting
dishpan hands. All this I took in at a glance as
my heartbeat increased with the approaching foot-
steps.
Then I realized that I was trapped - boxed
in! I had come in through the only door to the
laundry room, and a horde of hysterical females
were about to come bursting through it. Where
could I hide? No big waste cans, no closets, and
the dryers just weren't my size. I sprang for the
window and inched my way down a narrow out-
side ledge, just as the mob rushed in, pushing and
clawing and not even hesitating as they exposed
their . . . fanaticism.
When the frenzied females realized that I was
not in the room, they stopped in their tracks. Mo-
ther Crater was a little slow getting there - I
think she was having strap trouble - but when
she arrived, she once again put the girls into fran-
tic motion. First she called for an APB (All Pos-
sible Barriers) to be set up, including stakeouts
of the girls and their boyfriends at each door.
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
When I heard this, I broke out into a cold sweat-
after all, the temperature outside was three be-
low zero.
After everyone had left, I knew my time to
act had come. I knew because my fingers were
getting numb and it looked like a long drop to
the ground.
Some time later I peeked cautiously through
the laundry room door. I didn't know whether I'd
been recognized or not in the uniform and the
toupee that the man posing as a maid had worn.
Only one person was in the hall - Mrs. Twitcher,
the assistant housemother, who was talking on
the telephone. Getting what I thought looked like
a virginal . . . expression on my face, I boldly
walked right past her. I heard what she was say-
ing, and knew that she would be too engrossed to
notice me.
"Darling, the girls have to be in at 12:30 to-
night. Come over about quarter to one, and we'll
have the whole front porch to ourselves!"
I found out later that the man on the other
end of the phone was a campus cop.
From there on, getting out was easy. Scrub
pail in hand, I walked out the front door and up
Hitt Street to my dorm. As I climbed the stairs
to my room, still in disguise, a personnel assistant
reminded me to call out, "Woman on the floor!"
So that's my story. I've been graduated now,
but I've never told, about my harrowing experi-
ence for two reasons. First, nobody'd pay me, and
second, I couldn't help wondering what unsuspect-
ing boy would be this year's sacrifice to the god-
dess of romance . . .

They Made Me
Eat My Wife
by Pierce Spencer
I can't help shivering as I sit
here thinking about it. I am shiv-
ering because the radiator in my
room doesn't work. Maybe if I
bang on it the damn landlord will
send up some heat.
But I must tell you the shock-
ing, nauseating story, whether you
will believe it or not. I owe it to
myself; I owe it to her, and main-
ly, I'm not getting paid to write
about the landlord.
We were flying together in a
small plane over the jungles of
New Guinea. Unless it was French
Guiana. Then again it might have
been Funkhouser, Illinois; I don't
remember exactly. Anyway, there
she was. From her firm, well
rounded . . . lips to her shapely
. ankles she was all woman. Of
course, she was as ugly as hell,
but she was all woman. We had
been married only three months
before. It was a shotgun marriage.
Frankly I'd rather have married
the shotgun, but that's the way
the ax bounces. As we started on
our honeymoon, we had been giv-
en an enthusiastic sendoff, with
pitchforks and rocks. And for
three months we were indescrib-
ably happy, mainly because she
missed the freight train in Axolot-
ville and we didn't see each other
for three months.
About an hour out from Port
Moresby (or Cayenne - it all de-
pends) we hit rough weather.
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
Somehow I was sure we'd never
make it, but my wife wasn't scared.
After all, she said, I was decorated
in the Korean War (see Sweat,
Vol. 13, No. 15, August 1955 "The
Bloody Mess on the Floor was Me")
-by Mao-Tse-Tung himself.
By the time I had finished rem-
iniscing on how we had been re-
united - pulling a bank job in
Port. Moresby - which, incident-
ally, was why we were flying over
New Guinea (I think) in the first
place - it was clear that we'd
have to land and hole up some-
place until the storm was over.
Suddenly I spotted cultivated
fields. I was puzzled - cultivated
fields when Ezra Taft Benson had
emigrated here five years ago in
1962? Well, like I always say,
you learn something every day. I
still had to learn how to land the
plane we'd stolen. Somehow I made
it though - I don't know how,
and neither does the editor.
About five minutes after we
landed, our plane was surrounded
by natives. They wore rings in
their noses, had long spears, and
spoke Papuan with a Brooklyn ac-
cent. They gestured to us, and im-
mediately I knew they wanted us
to come with them. I knew this
because one of them was driving a
jeep that said "Follow Me" on the
back. So we followed them. We
realized that we must be nearing
a village, because another sign
tacked to a Eucalyptus tree said
"Welcome to Mopulu, cultural cap-
ital of Opala Country." It took a
while to get there, however, main-
ly because the natives lost their
way. I was told later they were
all fired.
When we finally did get to the
village, we were immediately tak-
en to what we presumed was the
chief's hut, It turned out to be the
jail. It was cold and damp. As I
looked out at the guards, who
were well armed with spears and
clubs, I thought for a moment that
I should have brought my heater.
But on second thought, I realized
it wouldn't be enough, and I
couldn't have plugged it in any-
where anyway. I decided I might
as well get some sleep and worry
about the whole mess later.
I woke up suddenly. Then I
made a horrible discovery. My
cigarettes were gone. Also my
wife. Then I noticed a strange
smell. It was like Loeb Hall Tur-
key Casserole. While I was pon-
dering how Uhler could possibly
have gotten down here, one of my
guards gestered for me to come
with him.
In the middle of the village, a
group of about twenty natives sur-
rounded a fire -from which the
odor was coming. They were pas-
sing around a container of some
foul red liquid, and chanting some
religious song. As nearly as I can
remember, it started out "Kuul Aid,
Kuul Aid, Taists Grait. " Then
I saw what was cooking on the
fire . . . Guess Who . . . She had
been stripped naked (There, now
I've used the word you want to
see), and stuffed with Peppers,
Tomatoes, and Blunder Bread
(Helps Cannibals grow 12 ways).
And suddenly it dawned on me
why I had been brought out here.
I was to be their Guest of Honor.
I would be forced to eat my own
wife!
I sickened at the thought. If she
tasted as bad as she smelled, I was
really in for it.
One of the natives offered me
part of the leg. I shrunk back -
she had had a severe case of ath-
lete's foot.
Then the natives pointed to me,
her, and the fire. His implication
was obvious, at least to me. Either
I ate the mess that was once my
wife, or I would be the next
course! I briefly considered calling
his bluff, as I would make a pret-
ty lousy meal myself, but decided
I better not press my luck.
I am thankful that I cannot re-
member how she tasted - my
memory gets worse with every
story I write for this magazine -
and I also don't remember how
I got back to the plane and man-
aged to make it to Hollandia. It
is useless to protest to the authori-
ties in Port Moresby - since my
wife has already been eaten the
whole thing is an internal affair.
I have since married again, this
time, fortunately, to a girl who
looks like Brigitte Bardot. Tomor-
row I leave for Stanleyville.

A Guide To
by Ean Grayson
Men, hunting season is over, but
as any rugged, red-blooded man
knows, there is nothing more rug-
ged and red-blooded than sitting
around a roaring fire (which you,
of course, built, you quivering mass
of biceps, you) reliving the unfor-
gettably rugged, red-blooded hours
you spent with a duck call in your
strong, sinewy hands.
That's it - beat your hairy
chest and lapse into the nirvana of
fond memory; the glory of outdoor
living, the smell of woodsmoke
and rugged, unwashed bodies; the
sounds of icy, rushing waters and
anguished screams as the S.O.B.
who forgot the church key is
clubbed to death and flushed down
above-mentioned ice, rushing
streams; the ectasy of seeing, liv-
ing, feeling, running out of cigar-
ettes. . . O, revel, revel!
But before you leap to your
rugged, steady feet and bound to
your gun cabinet on your muscu-
lar, trunk-like legs, wipe the froth
off your mouth and listen a mo-
ment to Uncle Sweat. No need to
violate the Missouri Game Laws
and risk disbarrment from that fra-
ternity of healthy, robust-okay,
rugged he-men, who annually for-
sake their razor blades and under-
arm deodorant for the wilds of the
Missouri forests . . . Why not try
some hunting right in your own
back yard?
The wilds of the University of
Missouri are a living game reserve
for the truly virile sportsman, pro-
ducing all sorts of challenging
prey. So, happy hunting, men, and
as they say in college, "Give 'em
hell!"
Studentia Jellyhourus
A drab, pallid, sickly looking
specimen. This bird is rather dif-
ficult to distinguish from its sur-
roundings, being cleverly camou-
flaged in colors of its environ-
ment (coffe-spotted khaki through
a rather unhealthy green). Its nat-
ural habitat is from the M-Bar to
Andy's Corner, and all points be-
tween.
During the month of February
it customarily flies south to New
Orleans, usually in formations of
6-15 in one covey. Its call fluctu-
ates between an unpleasantly nasal
"Whadjamakeinhistoryoftheflick"
to a low, guttral "Letsgositinthe-
carforawhilebaby." Its mating hab-
its are virtually unknown though
suspected to be constant. Its diet
consists of Coca-Cola, cheeseburg-
ers, any alcoholic beverage, No-Doz,
fingernails, any alcoholic beverage,
juicy morsels of scandal, and any
alcoholic beverage. It is open sea-
son on this specimen all year
'round.
Liquorinspectorus Undesirablum
This bird has proven to be one
of the more popular victims among
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
Campus Game
Missouri sportsmen, being eagerly
hunted from September through
June. Its natural habitat is any
dark, murky corner in any dark,
murky tavern. Its call can be des-
cribed as either a sadistic snicker
or a fiendish chuckle, sounding
something like "lemmeseeyerid-
buddy".
Plumage is deceivingly nondes-
cript, with one brilliant metallic
flash of silver cleverly concealed
on the underside of its light tan
overskin. This bird is carnivorous,
feeding largely upon young and
tender 18 to 20 year-olds. Warn-
ing: This bird is known to be in-
herently stupid, it generally trav-
els in large packs and is difficult
to capture.
Campiicopia Laughingstockus
Fortunately for the hunter, this
bird has the mentality of a mo-
ron, and is, therefore, quite easy
to shoot or run down with an auto-
mobile. It is unfailingly found hid-
ing behind a log in any type-1
parking lot. The ultimate extinc-
tion of these pests is fervently and
universally desired, so there is no
penalty or limit imposed.
Its call is an unintelligible in-
coherent babbling accompanied by
wild and uncoordinated gesturing
with its heavy, awkward wings.
Its plumage is a rather ugly
brown, much the hue of three-day
old mud. It feeds upon rules and
regulations set out for it by the
SHOWME, FEBRUARY, 1961
Traffic Safety Office. Discourag-
ingly enough, this diet is unde-
niably healthy, as these birds seem
never to die, regardless of age or
senility.
Alwaysum
Cleaningupthemensroomia
This specimen's natural (and
seemingly only) habitat is Jesse
Hall, where it wanders aimlessly
about, clutching a dustpan in its
generally decrepit, battered wing.
Curiously enough, these birds ap-
parently do not hatch, but spring
full-grown from cobwebby corers
or wastecans on the first floor. We
regret to say its call cannot be
described, as no one can recall ever
hearing it make any sound other
than a peculiar swishing noise evi-
dentally emanating from the wood
and straw it carries.
Its mating habits seem to be non-
existent, reproduction evidently
occurring through some highly-de-
veloped form of cell-division. These
birds are relatively harmless, and
the preservation of such some-
times-functional feathered friends
is half-heartedly endorsed.
Please note these pages can be
easily clipped for permanent filing
in a handbook. With a few min-
utes of study, men, you will be
able to recognize these birds eas-
ily and then continue the chal-
lenging sport of hunting all year
'round.

Ole January seemed considerably warmer when Julie Raney was chosen

Three medical students were ex-
changing their opinions on what
each thought was the most impor-

The first said, "The most impor-

live for long."
The second said, "No, the most
important part of the body is the
brain, because without it one
would be a mere vegetable."
The third said, "You are both
mistaken; the most important part
of the body is the navel, for with-
out it I would have no place to

"Columbia, Missouri."
"One of those jerk towns where
everybody goes out to meet the
train?"
"Train?"
Prejudice is a great time saver.
It enables you to form opinions
without having to get the facts.
We see where a new edition of
Hawthorne's Scarlet Letter is com-
ing out under the title, How Hes-
ter Won Her A.
After watching a drunk try to
unlock the door to his house with-
out success, a policeman went over
and asked if he might handle the
key for him.
"No thanksh," the drunk an-
swered. "I gotta good hold on dis
key. You try an' grab the housh."
An up-and-coming South Ameri-
can government decided to get new
uniforms. The official tailor was
called in and shown the design. It
included blue trousers, red boots,
a green jacket, and gold epaulets.
"Is this the uniform for the
President's palace guard?" inquir-
ed the tailor.
"No," said the officer, "it's for
the Secret Police."
Epitaph on old maid's tomb:
"Who says you can't take it with
you?"
If all the freshmen in the world
were placed in a line holding
hands, they would reach more than
halfway across the ocean.
A lot of people are in favor of
this.
The dean of the law school was
very busy and rather cross. The
telephone rang.
"Well, what is it?" he snapped.
"Is this the city gas works?"
said a woman's soft voice.
"No madam," roared the Dean.
"This is the University Law De-
partment."
"Ah, I didn't miss it so far af-
ter all, did I?"
Three Frenchmen, while prac-
ticing their English, got around to
discussing the wife of a friend
who was childless.
"She is unbearable," said one.
"No, that's the wrong word. She
is inconceivable," said the second.
"No, no, you're both wrong,"
said the third. "What you mean is
she is impregnable."
"Hey, fellah, you want to pull
down the shades when you kiss
your wife. I saw you last night."
"The joke's on you; I wasn't
home last night."
A glow-worm with tendencies
coarse,
Used to tell lewd jokes until
hoarse,
But he kept up his vice,
By the clever device,
Of learning to blink in Morse.
"I shore wish I had my wife
back," sighed the man from the
Ozarks.
"Where is she?" asked a friend.
"Sold her for a jug of mountain
dew."
"I reckon you're beginning to
miss her."
"Nope. I'm thirsty again."
Then there was the boy who
took his girl friend out in the fog
and mist.
She: That girl's a virtuoso.
He: Don't be silly, she's been mar-
ried twice.

The difference between a North-
ern girl and a Southern girl is
that the Northern girl says, "You
can," while the Southern bell says.
"You all can."
Help raise the devil while you
live. You will meet him soon after
you die and those who are ac-
quainted with him will get the
best shovels.
Old blondes never fade. They
just die away.
He drank with lovely Mable,
The pace was fast and furious:
He crept beneath the table-
He wasn't drunk, just curious.
"Where does virgin wool come
from?"
"From sheep that can run the
fastest."
"Aren't you getting tired of this
bachelor life all the time, Bill?"
asked his friend Jack.
"Certainly not," replied Bill.
"what was good enough for my
father is good enough for me."
The latest Martian gag going
around is concerned with the man
from Mars who landed in Las Ve-
gas and said, "Take me to the
cleaners."
Are you sure this motel is Uni-
versity approved?
Then there was the young mah
who started on a shoe-string and
worked his way up until he got
slapped.
Bill: "I'm knee deep in love with
you."
Jean: "I'll put you on my wad-
ing list."
They're coming out with a new
type tranquilizer. It doesn't relax
you. It just makes you enjoy feel-
ing tense.
A wolf pulled into a local Lov-
ers' Lane one night and gunned
his gas pedal. His motor started
to knock, as he'd known it would.
"I wonder what that knock can
be?" he remarked to the sweet
young thing at his side.
"I'll tell you what it isn't," she
answered demurely. "It isn't op-
portunity."

A pregnant woman went to see
a doctor and the doctor asked her
if she had a husband. The woman
replied that she didn't. Then the
doctor asked her if she had a boy-
friend and she said no. So the
doctor said excuse me while I
open the blinds, the last time this
happened a star rose in the East
and I don't want to miss it.
A woman stopped in a store that
had a sale on doggy bras and she
asked the clerk what they were.
The clerk replied that a doggy bra
was one that made pointers out of
setters.
The funny thing about foreign
cars is that the people who can
afford them usually can't fit into
them.
Her mind was like a bachelor's
bed - never made up.
A lobbyist who was opposing
any large appropriation for a state
college approached a legislator
who boasted of his self-education.
"Do you realize," asked the port-
ly lobbyist gravely, "that up at the
state college men and women stu-
dents have to use the same curricu-
lum?
The legislator looked startled.
"And the boys and girls often
matriculate together."
"No!" exclaimed the lawmaker.
The lobbyist came closer and
whispered, "And a young lady stu-
dent can be forced at any time to
show a male professor her thesis?"
The legislator shrank back in
horror.
"I won't vote 'em a damn cent!"
"My son doesn't drink, swear or
smoke."
"And does he make his own
dresses?"

Due to the desire to please a certain college-type chick, I
recently launched into a physique-constructing type pro-
gram, barbells, etc. However ...
Then, one day, it hit me - like I recoiled and recalled a
much easier way to achieve the end. I split the pad for that
ecstatic rehabilitation center, commonly called the M-store.
I immediately purchased a large-type sweat-shirt displaying
the college letter (M). Not only did the oversized shirt re-
leave that self-conscious complex I had begun to acquire,
but also, the letter satisfied a child-hood frustration I once
had when I was declared ineligible for the fourth grade
billiard letter.
My next purchase was a dietary aid for increasing my
weight while safely hiding in the new-found security of
my sweat-shirt. After all, I'd have to come out of the shirt
some day.
In further preparation, I selected a few heavy-reading type
pieces of literature to carry around. Among them were The
ABC's of Flower Arranging, The Best of Punch and a bound
volume of Showme 1951. Not only is the literature heavy,
but the volumes themselves weigh several pounds.
As I crossed the campi, I immediately noticed that the
chicks were immediately noticing me. Thanks to the M-
store I am no longer a 98 pound weakling-type, I am a 98
pound weakling-type-in-disguise.
