'THE DIRTIEST EVER':
Colorado Humor Magazine Banned
By TED FRIEDMAN
The University of Colorado's hu-
mor magazine, "Flatiron," was
banned by the board of publica-
4 tions last week after their latest
Issue was described as "worse than
obscene" by the Denver Post.
The 'issue, advertised as "the
dirtiest ever," had been complete-
ly sold out.
The board action was the culmi-
nation of a turbulent history of
the publication. Last year the fir-
ing of its editor for "too much
emphasis on sex and alcohol" was
described in Life magazine.
Later last year when a Flat-
iron photographer invited an "ex-
otic dancer" from a local night
club to campus, a riot ensued in-
rolving hundreds of students.
Featured Cartoons
The current issue features car-
boons, limericks, and photographs.
A Denver Post editorial asks, "If
this is the literature, hardly of
higher 'standard than the most
berated comics, that appeals to
the C. U. student body, why is
that student body itself so taste-
less?
"The Thanksgiving Flatiron, as
the production of supposedly at
least normally-developed college
students, is downright moronic."
Colorado University President
Darley said he was in full agree-
ment with the board's action and
feels "no future magazines of this
type should be published on cam-
pus.
"I have been strongly in favor
of banning the Flatiron ever since
the Thanksgiving issue came out,"
Darley said.
Editor. Challenges Banning
The Flatiron editor, Jim Schaff-
ner, challenged the banning. He
said the president's assistant's "job
is to keep derogatory Junk out of
the Denver smut sheets so that
the legislature has a rosy view of
things in Boulder.
"This university had great press
relations before he (the president's
assistant) was put to work as the'
moral FBI of the campus," Schaff-
ner claimed.
Concerning the Denver Post
editorial, Schaffner said, "It is an
excellent piece of criticism but not
very accurate.
Accuse Post Editorial Writer
"This guy is an editorial writ-
er," Schaffner.continued, "it's his
job to wave a flag."
However Schaffner did admit,
"The last issue of the Flatiron
stunk."
The board members defended
their action by stating that the
magazine "has not and. presently
does not serve any worthwhile pur-
pose."
Don Harlan, commissioner of
publications, explained that em-
barrassing publications of this
type hamper the university's ef-
forts in obtaining development
funds.

r An exhibit of Chinese porcelain
opened recently in the rotunda
of the University Museums Build-
ing.
The exhibit is under the charge
of Mrs. Kamer Aga-Oglu of the
Orient Division of the Museum of
Anthropology and consists of cela-
don and "blue and white" porce-
lains of Chinese and Siamese ori-
gin. The porcelains were given
to the museum by Evett D. Hester
of Chicago who acquired the Ori-
ental wares while in the Philip-
pines 'as a U.S. foreign service
representative.
This collection has been added
to another belonging to the Unit
versity making the largest archaeo-
logical collection of wares made
in China and Siam for export in
the western world.
Found in Philippine Graves
These particular porcelains were
found in graves on the Philip-
pine Islands whose inhabitants
buried a person with all his earth-
ly possessions. The' porcelain

Do Not Conflict
Beginning his lecture with a

Prof. Frank Huntley of the Eng-
lish department spokeyesterday
on "Christianity and Intellect -
A Contradiction?"
"There is no conflict between
reason and faith," he said. Science
and religion use intuition and
ratiocination, and other faculties
of the mind, and there is no reason
why they cannot be enjoined.
Prof. Huntley said the problem
of joining religion and science be-
gan being thought about in 3 A.D.
"But the problem has been dis-
cussed until 1955," he added.
"Man must find all the knowl-
edge he can," Prof. Huntley said,
"and reading all the books about
science, all the literature, and
reading the Bible will only broaden
his Christian outlook."

One's wealth was determined by
his porcelains.
'Celadon' Named For Shepherd
'Celadon' denotes the heavy
green glazed ware made during
the T'ang dynasty (618-906) to the
seventeenth century. These dur-
able porcelains were made parti-
cularly in the province of Cheki-
ang. The name is believed to
come from the name of the shep-
herd, Celadon, a popular charac-
ter in a French play of the sev-
enteenth century, who wore a
gray-green stage robe which re-
sembled the Chinese porcelain.
