The Regents of the University de- nied last night in a night letter that Jack Dempsey and Earl Carroll would be present at the 1927 commence- ment. The Law club may or may not be torn down starting next week to make! room for the new library of F--d Jokes. Several young instructors in the en- gineering school have not started re- search work to find all the jokes of this sort ever bandied about. A can- vass of the magazines in the dent- ists' offices nay reveal much which otherwise might be overlooked. Sev- eral of these instructors do not intend to earn their masters' degrees by do- ing this research. * * * President Little is not driving a Lincoln. The members of HIS class (1926) will not each be given a little F--d. * a a M. S. E. will be given exclusively hereafter instead of M. S. W. T.

Ac- cording to the story going the rounds, either Jep Bisbee or Mellie Dunham or both will play. Jep insists that be- cause it is the Michigan J-Hop, that he should have the job. Mellie equal- ly strenuously asserts that they have no reason to keep him out. Very likely a compromise of some kind will be effected. * * * The seniors may or may not wear mechanics overalls next year instead of caps and gowns. * S * It has not been decided whether or not to widen the campus walks, so that the seniors next year can parade on Swing Out in F--d trucks. * * * The man who invented the double decker seems to have contributed enough to the students to -warrant re- ceiving a degree also. But imagine a degree to anman for foisting such an atrocity off on the world. Mr. promo and Mr. Seltzer have also done a lot toward making life easier for everyone in the University. Might they not be given at least a master's degree along with Doctor Lister? Think of the insidious things he has saved humanity from in the past few years.

But little by lit- tle it is transmuted into something else. The bright Mr. Hoffman inti- mated that this interesting little so- ciety might be taken merely as "a fashionable way of saying 'Boo!' to the older generation." There is a good deal of that spirit in undergrad- uate atheism. And who can deny that it is sometimes good for a com- placent older generation to be said "Boo!" to?
