Are You a Campus Clutterer? Boxwood bushes, and other shrubs, flowers and trees have been planted around our school buildings to add to their beauty. Candy wrappers, empty cigarette packages and empty coca-cola bottles are unnecessary to the attractiveness of eithei tin walks or grounds of our buildings. N'ol only are bottles unattractive but dangerous. Do we like "trash-lined walks'* and a

"scattered-paper" campus, or do we real!) stop to think that we are cluttering our Campus with trash when we unwrap a Clark bar and drop the paper wherever we happen to be, at the time? Take as much pride in the appearance of your school as you do in yourself-because college is a part of you—and reflects your personality whili you are here.

Rosa, Anne, Pat, Marjorie, Virginia, Dot, Frances, and Marty—a winning combination. Mixing business with pleasure, we lind the 'Nawthun' trip quite successful from a standpoint of seeing the sights. Traveling by bus to Baltimore gave ample time for viewing the countryside—just as a beginning to better tilings. Supper in town, the game, a good night's rest, and on to New York, thence to Long Island, the second victory, and the return trip to New York, all served as forerunners of things to come. The highlights of the "life in the lug city" began with an invasion of the 5th Avenue shops. Snazzy! And imagine i—a visit to the Music Hall at Radio City. To say nothing of listening in. in person, on the Pel Milk Hour, Song of My Life, and the Lucky Strike Hour. What could be more entertaining'.' Well, might be the movie "Virginia" at the Paramount. How's that for patriotism to the home state'.' Or could the words, "featuring Glenn Miller in person on the stage" have added an extra attraction to the set up. Possibly ! Sounds all right doesn't it. "Fascinating", I believe, was the word they had for everything, including Sunday morning services at the Little Church Around the Corner, and the ferry boal trip around Staten Island to see the Statue of Liberty. Climaxing this series of glorious events was the subway ride back to Long Island to a tea given in their honor by Pat Gibson's mother and sister. And all too soon they boarded the "sleeper" for home, tired but happy. Things going on "right around home" seem rather mild in comparison, but somehow reality is more compelling than memories and the fact that class games begin tonight cannot be overlooked. The Freshmen will take on the Sophomores, renewing the immortal tight for the traditional color cup. VVe refuse to make any predictions, being impartial observers—so—may the best team win." Thursday night the Juniors meet the Seniors, and as two year rivals the game ought to be an exciting one, if not a fa.st one. N'ow's your chance to see keen competition and clean fun. SO why not make it a point to be there and Support your color as well as your class. They're great fun, thi s, game--. Ah ha! Me thinks there's a gleam in your eye and a cheer on your lips. For. yes sir-ree. that olde I'ing I'ong tournament is about to begin. Friday is the day to sign up for it and by the first of the week it should be in full swing. Dust off your rackets, and hunt up those balls, 'cause tliis tourney counts on the cup just as much as anything else. With all the tables available this yea*, we ought not t<> have any trouble getting in some good practices for a fast mo\ ing race. Splash I splash, splash! Sounds of the swimming pool as preparations get underway for the meet with Fairfax Hall. A delightful dive-sion is it not, after struggling over chemistry equations or English themes'.' Do you swim'.' Then "crawl" on down and lend an arm or a leg to the swimming team for a few days. Want to win a golf ball, you golf fans? The A. A.'s just giving them away to the best golfers. All you have to do is to keep track of your stores (and of course, see that they're good ones) and turn tl em in to the chairman of this event (Agnes Patterson). To the highest scorer in putting and to the highest scorer in chipping will go a ball apiece. Tiz an easy way to win. Spring, like p-osperity, i- just around the corner, and we are all looking forward to the out of door sports, but never let it lie said that folks around here hibernate during the winter. The athletes get their chance regardless of the weather.

"CHARLIE" JOHNSON

decided to Just up and ask Mr, French about his famous appellaJUST AS BAD tion, and this is what I found out. Barber: "What's the matter? During his Tech years. Mr. AnVt tne razor takln, nolt?„ •ench majored in chemistry of ,.y v,|>u E e h [ it B0 head of the department found again. jobs for his boys, and one summer the work that Mr. French obtained was in a dye plant, yellow dye being his speciality. It seems that the yellow dye had a most dliconcerning way of getting all over Mr. French, giving his skin a most oriental look. One day "Charlie's" roommate, "a crazy guy" as Mr. French called him, was walking down the street when he saw. as he supposed, his friend, our teacher. Naturally he started talking to him as they walked together down the street. Imagine his surprise when "Mr. Fniieh" wouldn't talk how unusual! The roommate w§M surprised, but he didn't let it worry him. After a few minutes of walking and refusing to talk, his companion turned into a shop. Wonder where the heck he thinks he's going? The roommate looked for this Information at the winif the shop, only to see painted there in drab letters the simple inscription: "Charlie Hop." So his friend was a Chinese laundryman, not the Frenchman. "Yes, Mr", said our "Charlie Hop" "that thing spread like wildfire. Every where my roommat* went, he told that story. At V. P. I, in King.sport. where we were working—everywhere! And to this day everyone calls me "Charlie Hop". It sounds crazy, but It's the Gospel truth!" "Nicknames are really lnt< ing", I ventured.
