"THE CITADEL-Unique new coeducational housing unit de-
signed by the School of Architecture and Design, is manipulated
into final position as opening day nears. Sanitation facilities are
somewhat impaired by the water-tight construction, but offipials
point out that this feature insures protection of neighboring
residents and saves the installation of University Sewage systems.

"TROLL'S FOLLY"-the third of a new series of dormitories being placed on West Campus, arrives
at its final destination. Designed by Morris Schwartz, prominent breeder of Scotch Terriers, the
"Folly" was constructed up river and made the trip to Ann Arbor, uniquely enough, by scow.
WHEN IT IS FINALLY INSTALLED, the dorm will house expatriates from Uncles Dorm. The ex-
patriates have been forced out of their dwelling by unwanted usurpers from Dallas House.

'U' Okays Homework Plan

l 4

SHIRTS

Officials report that the Uni-v
versity's new "24-hour Plan" is
meeting with considerable success.
According to the plan, sufficient
homework is supplied to students
to ensure that they will be kept
working all 24 hours of the day.
"Sleep is an obsolete hold-over
from the dark ages," one Univer-
sity official explained.
"Recent psychological studies
indicate it serves no purpose," he
continued. "This new plan is prov-
ing to be a significant advance in
higher education. Too many stu-
dents have been complaining of a
lack of homework lately."
The faculty has expressed great
satisfaction with the project. In a
statement by 37 faculty members,

the 24-hour plan was given full
endorsement.
"For once," said Prof. Ebineezer
Alcibiades of the classics depart-
ment, "we can give out as much
homework as we've always wanted
to. It's wonderful."
Officials report students also
readily accept the plan. "Although
at first they inevitably protest,
after they go along for 60 or 70
hours they stop complaining.
"Because of the plan's success,"
the official report continues, "we
believe the program mustbe made
an integral part of University edu-
cation if education is to continue
to progress.
Student comment was varied.
One junior mumbled, "New, since
when is this plan new?"

And it's only right, because this
is the time of year that you begin
to think about that gas-bomb
valentine for your house-mother,
the' molasses filled one for that
girl next to you in class and the
lavender-scented valentine in the
shape of an acetylenetorch for
your neighbor, the welder.
Who Is It?
But since it's also J-Hop time
we'd be willing to bet that not one
person in Ann Arbor, Ypsilanti, St.
Johns, Saqqara or Nottingham-
shire has given even a minute's
thought to the guy who really
made dancing what it is today.
Of course the person we refer
to is that patron saint of the
dance, St. Vitus. So now you
know, goof-ball!
Roman, Roman
According to the latest ency-
clopoedias, the only informative
sources that bother with the trivia
of this mortal world, Vitus lived
during the Roman period. Roman
in terms of Greece and Roman,
rather than in terms of Gloamin'
and Roman.
That's all the encyclopoedias
say, but there's quite a yarn about
this fellow in an old Roman pub-
lication put out by Teeth Chatters
and his four little Quill sharpen-
ers. The pamphlet is called "O
Bromus Chelsis," a well known
entity even to modern-day J-Hop-
pers.
Vitus was an unusual child,
mainly because he was born at
the age of four to a relevant and
a relevant never forgets. That's
why he didn't live very long. In
fact he lived very short since he
only grew to be 4 feet 3 inches
tall.
Pax Nabiscom
Anyhoo, he died at the age of
20. He began to show signs of
his dancing ability at the age of
18 months, when he kicked the
slats out of his cradle laughing at
the joke that was on page 79 of
last year's J-Hop Extra.
From then on, he concentrated
on his footwork. By the time he
was 12, he had performed in ama-
teur shows, Sunday picnics, beer
palaces, casinos and in the
movies.
BULLETIN!
According to official sources, it
was announced yesterday that it
was announced yesterday. Un-
usually reliable sources said that
they have recently been signed.
It was revealed last last night
he added, he continued, it was
announced yesterday, it was re-
ported he added.
He added that due to extenuat-
ing circumstances he would not be
able to reveal that it was an-
nounced yesterday.

Wants Suave Grads
"What I want," she confided
with a knowing snicker, "is an
apartment, so's my-roommates can
fix me up with some real suave
grad studerts."
"Wel-" said the Queen.
"Also," the matron blushed, "I'm
poor, sick. (see?, I carry dexe-
Brine!), and creative."
"I understand perfectly," the
Queen said, patting her visitor on
her mountainous shoulder. "Get
out of that dorm! Live! Find
yourself a penthouse somewhere!

"Hold Me Or Scold Me," play-
ing at the Yuckapuck Theatre is
the 1956 version of the Cherry-
wood concoction designed to per-
petrate a traditional recipe.
The recipe: Take a worn out
postage stamp licker, have a script
by a radio commercial writer, mix
with stars like flat-chested Caro-
lyn Shadroe and he-man Yon
Wane and you've got a top-notch
picture.
The story is simple: Shadroe
has been licking stamps for ten
years.' Her tongue is flat and
she's tired of being flat. She goes
on a binge of self-pity and winds

up in the park, alone and with a
wet mouth.
ENTER WANE. He's been load-
ing coffee and flour down at the
wharves, but he's tired of it all.
He's got a wet mouth too. He
goes to the park to relax and
there meets Shadroe.
He fights through a bunch of
hoodlums and gets himself and
Shadroe onto a canal boat to run
through the blockade. You never
know where the blockade came
from. Throughout this scintil-
lating episode, they breathe heavy,
the music swells and not a hair
is out of place on Shadroe's head.
Wane keeps running the canal boat

even though he's got a seven-foot
spear through his shoulder blade.
They end up safe on the other
side of the river. In a quick fade-
out the picture ends as they get
matching towels "For that wet
mouth and dry feeling.!"
Shadroe looks luscious through
the picture. She plays the part
with handsome integrity &nd is
sure to win a Peter for her per-
formance.
Wane is his usual muscular self
and gives his side-mouthed, clipped
speech performance.
WITH THE exception of the
canal boat the actors rely on the
scriptwriter to supply emotion. It
gets a bit ludicrous. Especially in
