fight with a vengeance through the
release of their slate of candidates
and their party platform. The
party fired the opening shot
of the campaign two weeks ago
with the publication of their platform in the Kernel. Tuesday, they
too released the names of their

7 Hour Service ot Regular Rates on Laundry and Dry Cleaning

The University of Georgia laundry, reports THE RED AND BLACK,
is back on a full schedule after
some labor troubles. Laundry is being delivered three or four days
late.
From Mississippi State's REFLECTOR: "State College students are
the most polite people in the world!
They even knock on the hen house
door before entering." Shades of
Emily Post! There's nothing strange
about that. One must always knock
before entering a boudoir. Ladies
expect it.
" 'All birds are nervous creatures
explained Dr. Arthur T. Ringrose,
head of the poultry department here.
'and the 1400 hens we keep are by
no means an exception.' If one in
vades a hen's privacy while she is
laying, she is apt to fly into hysterics and injure herself in some
way, or she might lay a
egg, Dr. Ringrose said.

The Union College ORANGE AND

the Blue Jean Jamboree which 125
students recently attended.

UK isn't the only school with new
light fixtures for the library. The
University of Cincinnati has a whole
set of fixtures with wise and an
cient sayings inscribed upon them
in the language in which they were
originally uttered. Says the NEWS
RECORD: "It would be safe to say
that in no other library are students so 'brilliantly' urged to find
wisdom."
