Washburn some years ago but who
still takes postgraduate work at Ho1-
brook hail. is known as the leader of
Washburn college society and it Is said
that he can make or break new coed

lived in big house and was the
whole works in her neck of the woods

and take notice. Then he went to the

q wager of tickets for the first good

Liked Best led a fierce rush on the
shine and pledged her before the

foxy w. 8. L. lost the theater tickets

course he hated that and won the flve
from the other chap to pay for them.
