Sherwood What’s what and what’s not in nice table manners: Table man ners really start before you sit down to eat. You wait until your hostess assigns you to a place at the table then, if you are to be seated with a lady on your right, you stand behind her chair and help her to be seated. The napkin at the left of your plate is yours; unfold it half way and lay it acros your lap. When you are about to leave the table, lay it at the left of your plate. If you are afraid that you may use the wrong piece of silver, re member the outside pieces are used first, then continue toward your plate on either side; trust your own judgment as to the requirements of the food at hand. Never cut more than one or two pieces of meat at a time. Remem ber to bring the food up to your mouth, don’t lean over to meet it. Brush up on your table manners and feel at ease in any company anytime. 32 of the Science building. The program will include a tour through the Fish and Game Muse um.

An unexpected climax to the in vestigation was the discovery that a Battalion managing editor was among the victims. He was prompt ly dismissed from the staff.
