SYRACUSE.--"I have never kissed
q girl"
Frank Culver, captain-elect Of the
Syracuse University football team,
says SO, and accounts describing his
relations with the goods during the
three years at college point TO the
truthfulness of his statement. And
/ have never been kissed by a girl,
either" he says.
Culver, who is from Toledo, o., j.
a junior at the university and has
had but one date during his three
years at college. That date was fore
ed upon him.
A sorority telephone his fraternity,
Sigma Alpha Epsilon. and wanted two
freshmen for q dance. That frosh drew
lots. Culver pulled the "unlucky rib
bon. That was his first and only date
on the hill.
AS an athlete and a student Gull
yer is fright there" his fraternity
brothers say, but when it come to
women, "he can't see en-
when We have a dance" they
say "he will work with us diligently
to decorate and get things ready
but when it comes to the dance it
self, he lays low. He won't come.
He says that he can't see dragging
women around. He calls us lounge
lizards, tea drinkers, cake eaters and
all that"

OFFICE RENTS
Coming down,
DRESSELL SAYS
Costs in Simpson Building
Reduced Third Time in
Year; Low Tax Rate is
Cause.

First results of the new decreased
tax rate relative to Ardmore comes
in the form of an announcement by
George Dressell. manager of the Simp-
son building, that the rents of Ard
more's largest commercial structure
have been voluntarily reduced for the
third time since February, 1921. The
announcement is believed TO be the
forerunner of many more of similar
nature affecting other buildings and
houses in all parts of the city. Total
reduction since February l is approx
imately Is per cent as regards the
Simpson structure.
Reduction in taxes, coupled with
lesser operating expenses due to in.
stallation of fuel oil burning apparatus
TO replace use of gas in the heating
plant, have enabled us to reduce the
rents" states Mr.. Dressell. Lights
and water are still the same as they
were a year ago.
1.-The reduction is voluntary on the
part of the owners Of the building, and
they intend TO make still further de-
creases."
Operated at Loss
During the first two years of its
existence the Simpson building has
been operating at a loss, Dressell
states, and conditions forced the own
ers to increase the rents the third
year to make up the deficit and
operate on paying basis. The increase
in taxes in 1920 was a big factor in
bringing about raised rents at that
time.
One hundred and ten rooms in the
building, occupied by many Of Ard
more's leading professional men and
members of the petroleum fraternity,
are affected by the cut in rents an
nounced Thursday,
The Simpson building is regarded as
one Of the most progressive estab-
| lishments of its kind which Ardmore
boasts. Visitors to this city from all
parts Of the country, and many Of
whom become enmeshed with Ard
more's cosmopolitan population, are
! highly impressed when they find that
such a structure exists here.
