It appears that electric lights, clocks and radios have been go- ing, on and off periodically for a week while electric company employees attempt to discover the source of the trouble. As'one of the men tried in vain to explain to a baffled coed, "The 220 line got crossed with the 110 line coming into the house and . but we're working on it." THE LIGHTS in the living room have been the only ones which continue to function during the blackout periods; consequently this room has proved to be quite a popular place for 21 coeds to study, play bridge and put up their hair at various intervals during the night. "The lights go out - and we all reach for our cigarettes and a deck of cards and head for the living room," said one sopho- more. "It's a very chummy ar- rangement for awhile, then the electricity goes back on and conditions are normal again." One of the coeds fondly remem- bers the night she spent in frantic search for her bobby pins and curlers with only a miniature Girl Scout flashlight as an aid. * * * A MAN NAMED "Joe" and an- other called "Bob" have been working steadily during the past few days to remedy the, sad situa- tion.
