STATE NEWS IN BRIEF
San Antonio , Boy Wins Science Post
San Antonio, Texas.—Friends of C.
H. (Gus) Haycock were electrified
yesterday to learn that young Hay
cock had been appointed to the chair
of zoology in Crooke’s Electrical
School at Kansas City. Members of
the boy scientist’s closer circle of
friends declare that although they are
astounded that a post of such import
ance should be given to one so young,
they are not surprised that Gus, as
they playfully call him, should make
good in zoology because he has per
formed operations on cats and house
flies since babyhood. Haycock’s lat
est research is displayed in a sti’ik-
ingly original paper on the nomen
clature of the human eye turned in
too the Zoology Department of the
A. & M. College of Texas.

nown at the A. & M. College as an
impersonator. People who are in a
position to know maintain that Sei-
fer’s mimicry of Jack Duffy and
Ernest Torrence rivals the work of
Lon Chaney and Dan Jackson. For
his diligence in keeping up the spirits
of men in the chemistry laboratory
Professor Marmaduke Thornton has
dubbed Seifer “Colonel of Chem. En-

spired moments Joe D. is able to give
a fairly creditable impersonation of a

Square Headed Mexican Discovered in
College Station
Colleg-e Station, Tex.—Phrenolog
ists (experts on skull structure) are
mystefied to find opposite racial char
acteristics in the head of one
Geronimo Augustine Shattenberg, ag
ricultural student here. The scientists
claim that Shattenberg’s is the most
contradictory case on record; his head
is a perfect example of the Four-
cornered Teutonic, yet his speech and
other physical characteristics proclaim
him to be Mexican. Another mysti
fying factor is the subject’s inordi
nate love of sauer-kraut, commonly
thought to be an individual German
trait. Since Mr. Shattenberg has lit
tle, if any, use for his head, a move
ment is on foot to remove it and send
it to the Smithsonian Institute.

Campus Celebrities Interviewed in
Hirsute Investigtion
In pursuance of its policy in keep
ing up with the trend of the race at
A. & M. a reporter was sent out last
week to discover the reason for the
epidemic of hirsute foliage on the lips
of prominent men about college. The
following statements were collected:
“All great ukelele players have
moustaches. McBride and Dean Pee
Wee both have them.”—Ted Krauel.
“Dr. Lee said that he thought blond
whiskers were cute and I’m trying to
graduate.”—J. H. Surovik.
“Well, I wanted to give the
coulombs something to play around in
and then too my voice is so big that
I have to strain it through some
thing.”—A. E. Nichols.

Messrs. Lams & Bro. Co.
Richmond, Va.
Dear Sirs:
Just a confession and an appreciation.
A number of years ago I was a user
of your Edgeworth smoking tobacco.
But like some others, perhaps, I was led
by alluring advertisements to change.
A few days ago I went into a drug
store to get some tobacco, and on the
case was the familiar can of Edgeworth.
I bought it and since then I have en
joyed old-time comfort.
So my confession is that I made a
mistake in changing to other brands,
and my appreciation is such that Edge-
worth will be my Smoke Pal while life
lasts, which may not be long, for I
have passed my “three score years and
ten.”
Very truly yours,

well with my green eyes and give
me a more manly air. Not that I
have an air like a goat now, but you
know what I mean—the Fish will have
more respect for me maybe.”—Henry
Grammer.
“I’m playing intramural football
now and have to do exerything I can
to look ferocious.”—John Maize Hill.
Neither the reporter nor anyone
else has been able to discover why a
person should try to raise a mous
tache on a face like Johnny Mitchell’s
except to try to hide part of it.
That’s her sixth dance with him to
night. They must be engaged.
That’s no sign.
But you don’t know how she dances.
