The eating places of College Sta ll 4n and Bryan have long , been tt recognized sorespot with the inspection. conducted by the sani tary corps of this region. Since iMf. and .Mrs. Odom chose The Batt (the official organ of the college and the city), 1 feel that it |s fitting to .reply through In one sentence Odom (lain) When your beard starts looking like a t roof, mate!?, its time to. clean house; and wfc. mean just thut. Ask a certain .kindly old gentleman in Copenhage^; he can give all the derails, x Lit seems the Mntlomgn in question, possessor of long, shaggy beard, was talking tola groce • friend ' in iR village near Vordingborg, Denmark. The grocer noticed; a moverpent in the beard and then) Saw a small mouse p«WP out of the mass of whinkers. The old man calmly to<i>k the mouse out of his beard and gently placed it on the floor so it could scamper away, telling the grocer in a- resigned .voice: ‘Tve got accustomed to it. Those ittjd ones think it’s a thatched roof.” COACH GETS LAST WORD The post-season “canning'’ of icollege football coaches across the .counjtry of which the departure of Honter Norton from A&M was only one of mahy, has brought to mind a similar incident that (J>ciuiped at Wisiconsin several .years ago. Only the coach got; the last word in th ment. Wheri Doc Spears was he^d coach University df Wisconsin, it seems that the Doctor was having his troubles winning games: as the Wisconsin alumni thought he should. A special meeting of the Athletic Committee was called and Coach Spears, was invited to attend and give a few reasons why his team wis not making as good a showing as -iVas predicted ih early September. j : : -j \ ■ j j Shortly after the meeting wa4 called to order a mofjeijsoi: from the Agriculture Department popped this question at Coach; Spears, “Why is it, Doctor Spears, that on most football squads the |>oys love the coach and play for him as well as for the School? I know; thi$ is; not tnje here at the University of Wiscdnjsin. iWIctor, why don’t the bbys love ybu?” i : ♦ * nsj argu- at the rotund i s! many Li? ■; , . in u I.
