HALF-HOUR LAUNDRY.

By DAVE THOMAS
Grindstone City, a remote Mich-
igan "ghost" town is the latest
metropolis to be honored by the
formation of a campus social club
bearing its proud name.
Tom McCann, '51E, who was
elected president by acclaimation
at the club's stormy organizational
meeting last night, pledged the
new club to the "promotion of
closer relationships among the
Grindstone City students on cam-
pus."~
(A QUICK CHECK of the Stu-
dent Directory by Daily research-
ers late last night, revealed that
McCann is the only student at the
University from Grindstone City.
McCann, however, brushed aside
cries of "hoax" and reasserted that
he had been elected by "unani-
mous acclaimation of all those
present.)
"The Grindstone City Club
joins such illustrious predeces-
sors as the Toledo Club, the Hia-
watha Club and the recently or-
ganized Purdue Club in an at-
tempt to secure unity of action
among students from theasame
locality," McCann commented.
No other members of the new
club could be reached for com-
ment on McCann's statement last
night.
* * *
IN HIS STATEMENT to The
Daily, McCann indignantly denied
that there had been any attempt
to "pack" the organizational meet-
ing.
It had been rumored earlier
that a group of students from
Bad Axe, a town about 23 miles
from Grindstone City, had at-
tempted to elect a slate of their
own as officers of the club.
"There were some people present
whom I didn't recognize," McCann
admitted, "but they were drowned
out by the shouting once the bal-
loting began."

BIG WHEEL AND STONE-Tom McCann, '51E, newly elected
president of the Grindstone City Club delicately balances the sym-
bol of his office on his knee. McCann is a charter member of the
organization, latest of the rash of location clubs to spring up on
the University's cosmopolitan campus. He was elected by unani-
mous acclamation last night at an organizational meeting.
had a long and colorful past, ac-
cording to McCann.
It takes its name from the
large deposits of sandstone which
are to be found in that region.
Years ago, this sandstone was
quarried and shipped to Ohio
where it was made into grind-
stones.
With the advent of carborun-
dum, however, the bottom drop-
ped out of the sandstone-grind-
stone market, shattering Grind-
stone's prosperity. Soon the pop-
ulation of the once dynamic city
had dropped to a mere shadow of
its former size.
"THE POPULATION is only 49
now that I'm away at school,"
McCann noted sadly.
Meetings will be held every Sun-
day afternoon in an armchair at
707 Oxford Rd., he announced.
Lives True To Name I
The North American shrike,
comonly called the butcherbird,
gets its nickname for the unusual
manner in which it kills its prey.
A shrike captures small birds, mice
and grasshoppers in its strong
beak and then forces them onto
thorns, fence barbs, or broken
twigs, in the same manner a
butcher hangs meat on hooks. I
