DAILY OFCILBULLETIN

By STEVE WILDSTROM
The new Gargolye is so totally
unfunny that one cannot even
attack it with any levity.
Today's issue of the self-
proclaimed humor magazine is 36
pages long. Of those 36 pages,
four are full pages of paid ad-
vertising, six are a reprint from
the California Pelican, and two
are Daily columns by James
Schutze which the Daily has taste
enough not to run.
As it is stated so well in the
editor's note to "The Gargoyle
Philosophy," "Due to his immense
knowledge on the subject, Mr.
Wardner had to steal most of his
ideas from other articles." The
magazine follows its philosophy
well.
Bering;
The key word of the Gargolye
is boredom. It is neither so bad
that one can get excited about it
nor is it good enough to be en-
joyable. It reeks of mediocrity.
One would think that with only
24 pages to fill with copy and
weeks on end to complete the
job, the Gargoyle staff could come
up with a far more exciting and
original publication than they do.
Satire Fails
There are several reasons why
Gargoyle's attempts at satire fail
so pitibly. First, many of the
objects of satire just aren't very
funny. The draft and the Viet
Nam war fall neatly into this clas-
sification. Lampooning of such

serious topics must be done with
great skill and finesse, qualities
which the Garg is not noted for.
Second, there are a few topics
which have simply been run into
the ground. Michigan State Uni-
versity and 'Doc' Losh ("The Le-
gion of Saviors . . ."), "The Play-
boy Philosophy" (The Gargoyle
Philosophy), and another version
of chutes and ladders are sub-
jects which have just about had it.
Heavy-handed treatment of cli-
ched topics will not leave readers
rolling on the Diag.
Gargads
The Gargadsrshow a level of
sophistication that would be con-
sidered underdeveloped in high
school students. The "Croke" ad,
together with its totally incom-
prehensible picture, is an excel-
lent example of this. The four
part "Grape-o" ad isn't much
better. The Gargads are, in fact,
an insult to the magazine's read-
ers. Expecting University students
to be amused by such utter in-
anity is calling for quite a lot.
The problem with Gargolye is
not that the magazine is stupidly
funny (as, for example, "Bat-
man") or tastelessly funny (like
the "Realist")--although the Garg
can be and is both stupid arnd
tasteless. The major problem is
that the magazine just is not
funny at all. If you have a quarter
to burn, buy a copy, but the typos
in the Daily will probably do more
to brighten your day.
