SHAKESPEARE DOESN’T LIVE HERE
ANY MORE
A recent and most heartening development in American college
life has been the emergence of the artist-in-residence. In fact,
the artist-in-residence has become as familiar a sight on campus
as Latin ponies, leather elbow patches, Rorschach tests, hula
hoops, and Marlboro cigarettes.
And we all know how familiar that is—I mean Marlboro ciga
rettes. And why should it not be familiar? Why, where learning
is king, where taste is sovereign, where brain power rules
supreme, should not Marlboro be everyone’s favorite? The same
good sense that gets you through an exam in Restoration Poetry
or solid-state physics certainly does not desert you when you
come to pick a cigarette. You look for a flavor that is flavorful,
a filter pure and white, a choice of pack or box, a lot to like. You
look, in short, for Marlboro—and happily you don’t have to look
far. Marlboro is available at your friendly tobacconist’s or vend
ing machine, wherever cigarettes are sold in all fifty states and
Las Yegas.
But I digress. We were speaking of the new campus phenome
non—the artist-in-residence—a man or woman who writes,
paints, or composes right on your very own campus and who is
also available for occasional consultations with superior students.
Take, for example, William Cullen Sigafoos, artist-in-residence
at tire Toledo College of Belles Lettres and Fingerprint Identifi
cation.
As we all know, Mr. Sigafoos has been working for many years
on an epic poem in rhymed couplets about the opening of the
Youngstown-Akron highway. Until, however, lie went into
residence at the Toledo College of Belles Lettres and Finger
print Identification, his progress was not what you would call
rapid. He started well enough with the immortal couplet we all
know: They speed along on [wheels of rubber, rushing home in
time for subber . ..
Then Mr. Sigafoos got stuck. It is not that his muse deserted
him; it is that he became involved in a series of time-consuming
episodes—a prefrontal lobotomy for Irwin, his faithful sled
dog; fourteen consecutive months of jury duty on a very com
plicated case of overtime parking; getting his coattail caught in
the door of a jet bound for Brisbane, Australia; stuff like that.
He was engaged in a very arduous job in Sandusky—posing
for a sculptor of hydrants—when an offer came from the Toledo
College of Belles Lettres and Fingerprint Identification to take
up residence there, finish his magnum opus and, from time to
time, see a few gifted students.
Mr. Sigafoos accepted with pleasure and in three short years
completed the second couplet of his Youngstown-Akron Turnpike
epic: The highway is made of solid concrete and at the toll station you
get a receipt.
W ft imtk?*4<7cc/af?e-
Then a few gifted students came to visit him. They were a
prepossessing lot—the boys with corduroy jackets and long,
shaggy beards; the girls also with corduroy jackets but with
beards neatly braided.
“What is truth?” said one. “What is beauty?” said another.
“Should a writer live first and write later or should he write
and do a little living in his spare time?” said another.
“How do you find happiness—and having found it, how do
you get rid of it?” said another.
, “Whither arc we drifting?” said another. \
“I don’t know whither you are drifting,” said Mr. Sigafoos,
“but as for me, I am drifting back to Sandusky to pose for the
hydrant sculptor.”
And back he went, alas, leaving only a fragment of his Youngs
town-Akron Turnpike epic to rank with other such uncom
pleted masterpieces as Schubert’s Unfinished Symphony, the
Venus de Milo, and Singer’s Midgets. © 1902 Max shutmau

Take cheer, good friends, from one masterpiece that is com
plete. We, refer, of course, to Marlboro cigarettes. Filter
end and tobacco end are both as good as tobacco artistry
and science can make them.
Fish Drillers
Place First
In LSU Meet
The Fish Drill Team, command
ed by Jack Schmid, ’65, traveled
by bus to LSU last weekend where
they won first place in all three
phases of the intercollegiate drill
competition held there.
Trophies were received for first
place in both Basic and Precision
Phases, as well as “Best Overall.”
Entered against the Aggies were
11 teams from all over the South
west including LSU and Tulane.
The Pershing Rifle Company of
LSU provided the main competi
tion for the Aggies. They took
second place in each of the 3
phases.
In the precision phase the Per
shing Rifles tied the Aggies in
points and a 5-minute overtime
drill was held. The Aggies repeated
their “ripple” movement and the
competition was theirs.
Protests were entered against
the Aggies by several teams on the
grounds that the pivofs made by
the Fish were not according to the
Army drill manual FM 22-5 during
the Basic Phase. The protests
were rejected by the judges, who
found no fault on the pivots.
