St. Valentine would flip in his
grave if he could see how Michi-
gan students have corrupted "his
day."
The tender phrases of heart and
flowers were snubbed almost com-
pletely. High on the love list were
the smart cracks of comic valen-
tines; while scores of Michigan
coeds found home-made pranks
from campus Wolves.
IN FACT, Valentine's Day'
looked more like April Fool's Day.
One of the erstwhile freshmen
in the West Quad passed up the
condy stores for the grocery
store. As a result, one gal lov-
ingly opened her package to find
a can of Red Heart (dog food)
--with a small stick-as a token
of his feelings.
And if the fellows in Cooley
House get together for a bridge
session, they'd better count the.
cards. One deck is minus the king
of hearts.

lace doilies. With a cnild's im-
agination and an architect's
skill, one ingenue saluated the
,object of his affection with an
"icy" heart packed on the front
lawn of her house.
Many grown-ups, however, cele-
brated at a local pub which of-
fered a Valentine's Special-red
beer.
Nakamura Co-op Votes
To Cut Board Rates
With most students jingling lit-
tle more than holes in their pock-
ets, Nakamura Co-op voted a cut
in present board rates and refund-
ed part of last semester's eating
fees.
Claiming that "cooperation was
the key to their prosperity," Bob
Stewart, president announced that
food rates would be cut $4.65 per
week to $4.50.

Manuscripis
in Slash-Pile

The best way to get an unsolic-
ited manuscript read is by ad-
dressing it directly to an associate
editor, Carmena Freeman, asso-
ciate editor of Dell Publications,
said yesterday in the first talk of
this semester's journalism lecture
series.
According to Miss Freeman, al-
most all unsolicited manuscripts
are dropped into a "slush pile"
that is largely read by inexperi-
enced editors.
IF THE MANUSCRIPT is sent
directly to an editor, however, she
will eventually recognize the name
and think you are a big name
writer, she said.
Miss Freeman remarked that
two other ways by which a
magazine obtains its stories are
from big name writers and
through literary agents.I
Authors who are able to read
copy and proof often receive pro-
motions faster than the writer
who is untrained in the technical
end of the field.

A $2,000 scholarship from the

The newly elected officers of
Unit 4, new women's dorm, are
Lillian Drazek, president; Dorothy
Webb, vice-president; Tulane It-
koff, secretary; and Abby Frank,
treasurer.
Also chosen at the Thursday
elections were two women to rep-
resent Unit 4 in the Inter-House
Council.
THOSE SELECTED are Sally
Stickney and Jeannette Dujardin.
The Council at present consists of
five members, as only two units
and a floor housing graduate stu-
dents are completed.
In addition to the Inter-house
Council, each unit will have its
own house organization.
The only complaint at the new
dorm seems to be that there are
too many workmen wandering
around at odd times and in odder
places.
HAYDEN .HOUSE, in East

man, and Lew Harmon, scholastic
chairman.
