The feature staff, in order to make the sides more even, will use only two men at a time, one to throw the ball and the other to catch it, since they admit there is no man on the team who can run fast enough to catch his own pass. These two men will be blindfolded and guided by seeing-eye dogs who will not be allowed to block for them.

For as the mouse- trap catches: the rodent, so the safety pin catches the pants. Among certain unmarried men, this doub- lcd clasp is known as the bachelor button. The old maids refer to it lovingly as their beau catcher, for many an old maid became an ex old maid through her devotion to the cause of uncomfortable bachelorhood. The safety pin serves man constantly throughout his life and even after death. The “kid in the three cornered pants” would not have his three cornered pants" very long if it were not for the safety pin. The dead man’s shroud would not close so well if it were not for the safety pin. Now the safety pin has a long and interest ing history. One can find records of folded Clasps as far back as the times of the Pha- ros. The ancient Greeks (who had a name for it) carved giant safety pins on some of their finest statues in honor of this all-pun pose fastener. The Romans turned the great- er part of their noble bronze into battle trumpets and - safety pins. Marco Polo brought back safety pins of gold and silver from his now legendary journey to Cathay. When Marie Antoinetteflost her head, this event took place within two inches of her jeweled safety pin. (When Stalin and Hitler loge theirs, may it be within an inch and seven eighths.) Pins, pins, pins everywhere. For all We know, the safety pin is playing an import- ant part in holding the world together in these troubled times. Oh!

By 'lled van Golder To start all, Guy melmrdo has scored a winner in recording these two on one platter (Decca 3999). They are “I Don‘t Want to Set the World on Fire" and “Com ccrto," probably the two most played of the newer hits. The. latter is, of course, recog- nized as 'l‘eclmllcovaky’a Concerto Numhcr One in B Flat Minor, adapted to popular music. This is done in the usual Lombardo sweet style. The other is a perfect one for the Lombardo type and is sung by Kenny Gardner. .Now to a more solid type with Will llrmlloyb orchcstla recording of “City (lulled Heaven" with Lynn Gardner taking the vocal honors (Columbia $62.97).

Dom- Critic: Pardon me for getting serious this week, but, if you who heed, it may be advantagi- ous to you. My ensuing thoughts constitute a plan for unity. Yes, unity «in [he A.A..S. In the past this organization has not; functioned effici- cully, but that is no indication that it will not, function in the future. The lack; of effia ctcucy may have been due to procrastination by the board of control; it may have been due to lack of interest on part of the stu‘ dents; but more than likely, it was a com- bination of these two elements.

By working together we can create a machine which will be profitable to us all.

Wow-Icing independently, these two elements will accomplish little, so it is up to us to see that they are unified. Let your representatives on the board (mow what you expect from the organiza- tion. Let them have your suggestions, critzl cisms, or what ever. After all, if you don’t make your desires known, the 1i.A.S. cer- tainly cannot fulfill them. At the present time, the board is trying to organize a party. As yet there are no definite announcements to be made, but the policy is going to be super informal. Just a chance to get wet, let your hair down, and be natural. Meeting on this basis is surely going to improve your understanding of your fellow students. So let’s all get behind it and give a big push-4712's is our chance to get the ball rolling to bigger and better things for the Arm. Yours for a better year. ANN Ellltlrl'iflll).
