Get A Name?
By

Did you evvr slop to think why
they call you Tom. Dick, or Harry?
Was it iKiause of an aunt, cousin,
or uncle, or could it have been a
phonograph moid, book, or boy
fnend as were the ways which
some of our campus personalities
were named?

Pat Clark,
worker, was a disappointment to
her parents, who wanted her to be
born on St. Patrick's day and, although she missed it two days, they
call her Pat anyway.
Lexington,
Juanita Robertson,
has a big sister ho was very fond
cf the phonograph record "Juanita"
and when given the privilege of
naming the new offspring promptly
called it Juanita.
Jane Eyre of the Eyre twins was
book
named after that
"Jane Eyre." by Charlotte Bronte,
wliile Aim. the other twin, was
named for their two grandmothers.
The parents of Maryan Vopt,
Louisville, let big brother, who at
tliat time was in kindergarten,
n
choose the title for the
babe, and "lie called her Maryan because of a kindergarten sweetheart
with that name.
An investigation reveals that the
majority of people, especially in
the south, carry family names, usually of the mother's side, as middle or second names.
Think about your name. What
does it mean?

Once you've seen people hobbling
around to classes with cuts, bruises,
and scratches (for treatment see
p. 161. Red Cross Manual), and a
wild gleam in their strained eyes,
you'll know that "Doc" MacFarland's geology field trips have started again. The wild gleam is due to
the fact that they are constantly
searching for odd rocks and various
stuff which is all Greek

to promote the sale of bonds and stamps. These stamps and bonds are available in
all women's residence houses and sorority houses, and from representatives on the
campus. Drop by each day and buy a stamp and save money that you will need after
the war is over.
Although the pennies you spend for 10c and 25c war stamps seem small, when
added up they mean machine guns, gas masks, rifles, and jeeps. It also means Freedom for everyone. Freedom can only be had when we have bought enough Udript
