Look Me Over Boys!!
I Make "A"
"Some day all of you men will
be asking C. C. for a job," was a
statement made by Jug B to one of
his classes last year. And as he
had prophesied, Leetle C f As run-
ning true to form; judging from
the way he had the Chem. Depart-
ment on the line. Just this Duke:
How many Industrial problems has
he worked this year? How many
problems has he handed in that.he
didn't copy five minutes before he
went to class? How many of the
books that he borrowed from you
did he read? We don't mind a
man getting help from "all" the
other members of the class, but we
can't see the point to his trying to
make the Prof. believe that the
rest of the class got the problems
from him. Here is a good one Head
In: Average the answers deter-
mined by the other members of the
class and then see if it doesn't
check exactly with what Lettle C.
C. got. The department of Geolo-
gy was almost his Waterloo. Did
he make A —no, did he make B—
no, he was mighty glad to get a
low C. This was one time that his
smooth talk didn't work so well.
So, look around, Dr. Hodges, you
have more than CbE in your class.
The Bleeder
Hail the Exchange Store! Where
only 50096 profit is made on all
commodities' sold and where the
student enters a realm of the at-
mosphere in which Jesse James
lived and died. Why do we have
to buy everything at such a price
and have the faculty sit in their
comfortable chairs and never say
a word? Five and six dollars for
books that we can buy for half
that price from the publishers.
The snappy and courteous service
that Johnnie Simms gives is like
the breath of his mouth — halitosis.
why in the hell can't Up be more
courteous when we venture to
spend our money there?
Hail, Cheatum! and your right -
hand man, Simmsl When you be-
comes millionaires in the next few
years, let us .know, and we will
run the business right.

THE MIS -FITS
No educational campaign had to
be carried on to select a name for
this paper. No prizes given —no
names turned in —the staff simply
looked around and at every turn
came face to face with a campus
mis -fit. Could there be anything
more fitting than to give the mis-
fits a fit by fitting them up in the
mis -fit?
Ranking the mis -fits is easily
done —this being a rank school.
The rankest of the rank, first, etc.
For our rankest of the rank we
have, dear reader, our own little
Joe Taylor — little Red Riding
Hood. "How could Red Riding
Hood have been so very good and
still done his best for the Corps."
Who wants to stand at attention in
the rain while any one marcheo
the mess hall? Nuff sed.
A (rt.) Bill Morgan— biggest
mouth and biggest feet in the
corps. All mouth, all feet; no ac.
tion —he speaks for himself.
C (omp). Jerry Harwell —pride
of fire zone two and the Aggieland.
The open - minded chairman of the
ring committee who wanted to
force the fish to support the new
ring by using a board.
(Inf:) Ralph Howe —that ster-
ling example of Aggie manhood
characterized by a bottle, a loose
cork, and a corps dance.
Johnston, old Stormy, editor of
the Student Forum. And surround-
ed by a staff, all of whom are so
narrow minded that they ride to
Bryan on one seat in the Tooner-
ville. Oh, yes, and loved and ad-
mired by the athletes.
Johnston ranks ahead of Hal-
bouty solely for the reason that
he carries more shoulder decora-
tions. Halbouty thinks he knows
everything and can run anything
he puts his hands on, but we shall
draw, our own conclusions when
the "unique, inconceivable and un-
paralleled" Longhorn comes out.
Hop Reynolds —the blazing Bas-
trop boy —past master in the art
of slinging bull and second only to
David in the art of leading sheep.
Sheep — the biggest group of
mis -fits of them all. The group
that blindly follow the path of
least resistance — the path that
