.eUer Kissed,
Though Girls
AHLike Him
John Esquirol, N. Y. u. Senior,
Says "Queening Should Be
Done on KissleSS Basis"
is ATHLETE AND ACTOR.
Declares Kiss Is Cheapened
When Given Without "Un-
dying, Deep-Rooted Love-"

Sixteen years in New York schools
and never been kissedl
Such is the claim Of John H.
Esquirol of No. IS Crooke Avenue,
Brooklyn, who Tomorrow winds up
his college career at New York Uni
versity from which he is a 1920 gradu-
ate. To make the record, really
unique, friends of Esquirol point out,
he is a college athlete a high class
student, active in student body af-
fairs, and. more important still, is
popular with the opposite sex.
Until the opening Of the university
last year Esquirol had been classed M
as a woman hater." He fell from that
elevation on his return home from the
summer vacation. About fifty letters
Of distinctive feminine handwriting
came to the family fome--all ad-
dressed to John Hin the first week.
The family gasped, but later became
accustomed to It.
But despite this flop Esquirol con-
tends that all "queening should be
done on a kissless basis" The kiss, he
says, Is unnecessary, II actually takes
the Joy out Of companionship, distracts
ones attention from the more ideal
istic comradeship, and anyway, any
body can kiss, but it's only a few who
can refrain from kissing or being
kissed.
When news OF the EsquiroPs kiss
less attitude on life came to the ears
of the New York University chapter
of Psi Upsilon. an immediate inves-
tigation was called. The college in
vestigaters probed into John HIS
past, present and future. They also
quizzed young women with whom he
had been seen. They asked his
brother, Joe Esquirol. and other
members Of the Esquirol family.
Finding all Esquirors claims borne
out by every witness, he was unan-
imously elected a member and made
President OF the Psi u Purity
League, to which only five men have
been elected.
The 'ldssless" youth, who was
centre on the N. Y. U. football team,
good at any position in baseball,
manager OF the track team, a singer
and an actor in school productions,
modestly declined to go into detail
about his theories except to say that:
Il don't believe in kissing. In the
first place, there are better ways OF
showing affection. In the second
place, 1t cheapens the kiss when 1t
is given freely to those for whom you
have no undying, deep-rOoted and
true from the heart love-"
