THE QUESTION: As far as you
know, what is the most discussed
topic on your campus?
THE PLACE: New York City.
THE ANSWERS: Edmund Nar-
dozza, University of Cornell, Ithaca,
New York: "Co-eds, women, maidens,
damsels. What else is there to talk
about? The finer things? Yes, some-
what; but not with the vigor nor
prolixity given to the co-eds. If you
run into other frank students, you'll
receive the same answer."
Julius Hollander, George Washing-
ton University, Washington, D. C.:
"George Washington is primarily a
medical school, and the majority of

its students are candidates for its
medical courses. Naturally, M.D.'s
and medicine figure more often in
conversation than other subjects."
Milton Small, University of Mary-
land, College Park: "Militarism.
R.O.T.C. is compulsory at Maryland,
and the student body, almost to a
man, takes issue against "the martial
spirit." If called upon to voice my
opinion of the "makes men" policy,
I would reply-nuts!"
Jerome Hollander, Columbia Uni-
versity, New York City: "From the
Spectator, radical political theories
and talk seem to be the thing at Co-
lumbia. That is not so. It is but the
work of a few factions. Campus poli-
tics, however, is the reigning noise
right now, what with class elections
approaching."
Alan Rappeport, University of
Pennsylvania, Philadelphia: "I doubt
if any one topic occupies more dis-
cussion than the others. In the War-
ton School, where I am enrolled, bus-
iness probably comes nearest to the
title. Generally, baseball is more
talked about at this time."

The makers of Dobbs, Mallory, Knox and
Stetson hats have a reputation for making
very good headgear.
Your hat can be renovated on equipment
like that used by manufacturers of these
well-known headpieces. None other in
Ann Arbor.
Why not have your hat renovated and re-
blocked this proper way? It will save you
money and yet you will have a fresh, new
looking hat to wear.
