Prof. NJ. +. Cooley and Prof. c. y
Greene Of the University. and . report
er for The HERALD, were chatting
the Morton yesterday after dinner, an
the aubject turned upon that delghtfu
topic, the ''co-ed." SIN my opinion,
said Prof. Green, "tne sco-eds' ar
getting better looking all the time.
have observed il for several years now
and the distinguished apostle o
cosines and ,angents rolled his eyes L
dreamy way.
That's my opinion about it, too
said the famous engineer. "lou vii
find about as pretty girls at the Univer
sity of Michigan as you will fipd al,
where IN the country"
"Yes," returned Prof. Greene
"the old style of coed whs
came to the university because she ha,
right TO. and was strong minded. whs
believed heartily IN the equality o.
women. and never missed an oppor
tunity TO express her opinion about II
is thing of the past. The girls nov
arc brighter than the others ever were
and a thousand times prcttier. oi
course personal beauty doesn't make
any difference. Scholarship 10 thu
only text of merit; but then-why -
you know"
