 THE HITCH It seems they're going to blast the

 sticks That there are only brains at Smith, That beauty always shuns the
 chicks. For many years. I've cried. "Oh,
 fudge" At sundry libels I have heard, Like that. and now the world can
 judge The crass canard untrue. absurd. I'm worried who no worry courts, For in those academic halls, What grab is there but dowdy
 shorts, High-water slacks and overalls, And sweaters-Sweaters?-awnings,
 what?- Voluminous, unlovely dudS, Which obviously have been cut To hold a hundred pounds of spudS? I hail this race for Beauty's prize; The fair are there-I more than
 guess. The world is in for a surprise If they can only find a dress.
