Mither Nature Helps Irishman In Wearin Green
Said Pat, a student who en-strolled along; thfc Trojan campus yesterday, to Mike:
Begorra, if it doesn't come St. Patrick’s day with the campus as deseried as a garbage dump in Dublin! Me eyes are brimmin’ to think that not a soul was about to bid me “Top o' the marnin’, Mr. O’Toole,” and join me in the wear-in* of the jreen. “Not worth a ha’ penny, these scholars,” I says to meself, and then it dawned on me like sunrise on the Emerald isle.
A foine day, that it was, Sunday or no! The buds were breaking green and the grass was bright green, like it is where the river Shannon flows, for Spring it is that'll be startin’ March 21.
Sure, and it’s Mither Nature that's observin' the wearin’ o’ the green! So with a shamrock on me waistcoat and a twinkle in me eye, I hied meself off to me true love Maureen to tell her that a foine St. Patrick’s day it was.

‘Dark-Horse’ Expected at Wednesday Assembly To Oppose Lone Presidential Candidate
BY MYRON MINNICK
Nomination of candidates for student body offices is scheduled for 12:05 p.m. Wednesday as the nominations assembly gets under way in Bovard auditorium with a barrage of adjectives and campaign promises.
With Charles Johnston. Kappa Sigma, the only candidate so far to petition for the office of ASSC president, at least one other presidential aspirant is expected to be named at the assembly.
Big smiles and even bigger cigars accompanied a sudden epidemic of joviality to the campus last Friday, as the names of 34 students who filed petitions of candidacy were announced.
As post-time for the big political derby grows near, two starters. Donna Lewis and Peggy Price, are lined up for the ASSC vice-presidential office. Miss Lewis Ls a Pi Beta Phi and chairman of the women’s freshman advisory committee, while her opponent. Miss Price, is a kappa Alpha Theta and vice-presi-dent of the WSGA.
Political rumors are rife on the campus as SC's politicians drag out their annual war-drums and started "lining up” votes.
Mary Hensler. Delta Delta Delta, and Deedy Maurer, Alpha Gamma Delta, have announced their intentions of running for the office of student body secretary.
Filing into Bovard auditorium Wednesday during the noon hour,
SC students may possibly witness a display of verbal fireworks as various “dark-horse” candidates are revealed for the first time and nominated.
All sororities and fraternities have been asked by Al Gifford, commissioner of elections, to set back luncheon 30 minutes so there will be ample time for the nominations assembly.
Exact procedure at the assembly and amount of speaking time each candidate and his nominator will be allowed is to be announced follow-

________________________________ IVagner
In tranquil ecstasy, Parisfal gazes at the forest and the fields, now glowing in the morning light, and over lulling harmonies, the oboe gives out the exquisite theme of Nature Redeemed. This marks the commencement of the inexpressibly lovely episode, known in the concert room as the Good Friday Magic, the day on which all creation rejoices in the Saviour's sacrifice and love.
