STUDENTS SELECTED FOR
'55.' $50 HALL OF FAME
~ KELSEY Exit" COLLIE

Hollywood has its oscars,
Broadway has its Toni, and tele-
vision has its Emmy, and what
have we? Well, we have no tang
ible statuetes as such, however,
we feel that publication Of the
fact is just as substantial, al
though net as ornamental.
With this in mind, we have, for
the past year, made selections Of
Miami collegians to be included
in the annual listing of our
Campus Beat Hall of Fame"
These students, we hope, will
serve as incentives for many Mi
mians who are presently in col
lege or plan to enter in the
future.
Perhaps the announcement of
these students is not as spec
tacular as the Academy Awards,
but somehow we feel that they
are more important. The students
selected are carefully screened
and must possess the following
qualifications :(1) good charact-
er; (2) leadership ability; (S)
good scholarship Cat least a &c"
average; we feel that the grade
value is not essential for it does
not necessarily determine the
students over values); az must
have made some tangible and
worthwhile contribution to the
college or university in which he
is enrolled.
The individuals selected this
year, we feel, have measured up
to the qualifications set UP and
are representative of the city,
state and county. We then honor
honor them this week and express
our fluctuations and congratula-
tions. We hope that in some way,
this recognition will inspire them
to take that next step up the lad
der of success and fame. We are
as proud of them as we know
their parents, guardians, rela-
tives, and friends are.

from gas to actual pain is

he's in the wrong business. He
ought to be in public utilities
rather than in stocks and bonds. >
I asked Jim what he has been
doing about 1t. He said he had
recently had a physical and X

was OK he said. IF it isn't my
gall bladder. a growth or an
ulcer, then what CAN ii be?"

His wife furnished the clue,

he puts into his stomach. He's
always eating.
