0, You I. U. Don Herold Compares Shirt Mileage There and at Purdue.

PM Times Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Oct. 5. Don Herold, who says, "I went to Indiana university because it was ninety-five miles from home,” continues to sentimentalize about the Hoosier seat of learning as follows in the November number of College Humor: "What I am getting at is that, to a great degree, all this comparing of universities is pure apple sauce. You take potluck at any of them, and it is partly accident whether or not you come into contact with faculty men who set you aflame. "It is hard not to get soft about the Indiana campus. I know of none in America which surpasses it in beauty. I am glad I did not have to go to college in a skyscraper or on a sunbaked subdivision. Romance burns best on a wooded campus. tt u u And how! As it exists at Indiana, I think it is a fine thing for the boys and hell on the girls. Tough, however, as co-education is on the girls, it is undoubtedly civilizing on the boys. It teaches them to wash behind their ears and inculcates other important niceties and graces. At Purdue many a student wears the same shirt without changing for four years; at Indiana, nobody wears one shirt over a year, and this comes off for a clean one for the dances. I should hate to think what would become of fraternity, houses if it were not for week-end dances. “Os one thing I am sure, and that is that Indiana does not produce an Indiana type. Ido not think that Indiana shellacs any sensibilities. If anything, Indiana opens the pores. Sometimes I wish I had a Harvard mustache and a Yale swagger, if there are such things, but, again, I am glad I went to a school which left me a little raw and red. Maybe I catch more with some of my pores left rivaled.”
