Bennett Cerf,
Famous Wit,
To Give Talk
Ticket sale for the lecture by
Bennett Cerf Tuesday will open
at 10 a.m. tomorrow at the box
office of Hill Auditorium, where
the lecture will take place.
Cerf, publisher, author and Phi
Beta Kappa, will lecture on
"Changing Styles in American
Humor." As the author of a num-
ber of joke anthologies-"Shake.
Well Before Using," "Try and
Stop Me," and "Anything for a
Laugh"-Cerf should know what
he's talking about.
Jokes, however, are not the only
subject in which Cerf is pro-
ficient. He has been the head of
his own publishing firms for
more than 20 years.
For short periods after his
graduation from Columbia in
1920, Cerf was a reporter and a
clerk on the stock exchange.
Then he became one of the many
vice-presidents of a large pub-
lishing house.
After a short time in this posi-
tion, the changeable Cerf helped

DAILY OFFICI-AL BULLETIN

bothered'by his thinning hair for.
some time.
A few months ago, he gave
up trying tohrevigorate his
scalp, with shampoos, hati r
tonics and massage treatments
and walked over to the derma-
tology ward of the Health Ser-
vice.
There, he was told that he had
a bad case of dandruff, for one;
that it might be hereditary, for
two, and that he had better go
home and wash his hair again.
* * *
HE DID just that, the student
admits. And also he went back to
the massage treatments, the
shampoos and the hair tonics.
But still his hair fell.
Finally, in desperation he de-
cided to appeal his case to a
higher tribunal: the University
Hospital. But in order to do this,
he had to be referred to the hos-
pital by the dermatology ward of
the Health Service.
FRIDAY MORNING, with his
hair falling in the breeze, the stu-
dent got permission from. the
Health Service dermatology ward
to go to the University Hospital
dermatology ward.
At 12:30 in the afternoon,
balding but determined, the
student set out for the Univer-
sity Hospital. But once there,
he encountered an elaborate
system of red tape, 'which
shocked a few more grains of
hair off his noggin.
In succession, he registered, got
credit for the $5 fee he didn't
have in his pocket and gave cer-
tam mysterious credentials to the
cashier.
AFTER A DOZEN or so copies
of the documents had been
mimeogrgphed, he was ordered to
an adjacent room. Here, the stu-
dent continued, he was X-rayed
and seven cubic centimeters of
blood were extracted from his
veins.
He was now ready to have his
head examined.
Winding through a laby'rinth
of corridors, he finally found the
dermatology department . . .
where he waited. At 2:15,
he was told the doctor was ready
for him.
In he went; and at 2:30 out
he came. The doctor-a bald
doctor-had given him a pre-
scription for a shampoo and a
hair ointment.
The student figured out his
balance sheet as he ambled home
from the Hospital: assets: a 'bot-
tle of shampoo and a bottle of
hair ointment; liabilities: a bill
for $5, seven cubic centimeters
less blood and a couple of wasted
hours.
