VARSITY NOTICE
All varsity gym men are requested o report at the gym at 2:30, Wednesday, February 25, to have their pic-ures taken for the El Rodeo.
“Before the bell rings I wish to announce that on Friday there will be a written—” But it is too late. The bell has rung and the professor’s words are muffled by the scuffling of feet, the slamming of seats, and the chatter of voices. On Frida}* a multitude of surprised students appear in class and indignantly claim that quizzes should be announced beforehand, w’hile the poor professor hopelessly wonders what attractions await the students during the ten minutes intermission between classes when they are so obviously anxious to leave.
That professor, and many others, would be surprised if they could see the various students between classes. For classes are only a minor detail compared to the short intermission.
Many a date has been made during the ten minute recess. Some are broken too, and a heartbronen man or maid spends the next forty minutes pond-erisg over the peculiarities of the opposite sex. Feminine faces must be rejuvenated at this time so that maidens can appear all buoyed up for the forty minute ordeal. Or is it that her '.hero is in the same class? If he is
not in her class nine times out of ten she has a secret sorrow whom she must catch a glimpse of during the remaining fewr moments.
Girls alone are not subject alone to harmless flirtations. Campus sheiks make up for lost time between classes and after the ringing of the bell may be seen draping themselves in some majestic pose over the co-ed. Then when the bell rings for the next class the queeners suddenly come to life, and dash madly away, exclaiming, “M'gosh! Late again.”
Quite a few men make themselves useful around automobiles at this time. No, not in fixing wreak carburetors or punctured tires but by doing their bit towards keeping the girls amused. Some students even slip away for a short joy ride.
Ears must burn continually between classes as co-eds are heard finishing the conversations they began in class. Such significant phrases as “My dear,
I was thrilled to death” or “he has a wicked line” can be overheard at any time when co-eds get together.
Men congregate for a chummy (CONTINUED ON PAGE FOUR)
