FIELDSIANS scorn everything
others hold dear, particularly wo-
men and children, according to a
local representative of the order
(who must remain anonymous
since his top hat was so far over
his eyes that identification was
impossible). Fieldsians also dis-
trust everyone, he continued.
This is directly traced to W.C.
Fields' identical traits. Field-
sians pay homage to their idol
by assuming his manners, con-
versational style, and 'ethical'
principles.
The Michigan chapter of Field-
sians has a long record of distin-
guished and negative commentar-
ies on University life.
A typical Michigan Fieldsian is
one who sits quietly when a group
roars out with "The Victors" after
losing & game, just to give the team
a lift. He will listen to the rendi-
tion with obvious boredom and
then comment in a rasping voice,
"Too bad they don't win."
ONE EPISODE is related by
proud members to show that the
valor of a Fieldsian is unchalleng-
ed in situations of danger and
despair.
Driving one evening into the
onrushing traffic a carload of pas-
sengers, were not aware of their
cigar-smoking driver's path up the
left-hand side of the highway un-
til a terse non-Fieldsian com-
mented on it.
"Ah," the Fieldsian driver
said with a nasal quiver, "I'm
just flicking my ashes into the
ditch."
WUOM Will Air
Greek Myth Today
R~adio-Iisteners will have a
chance to hear a dramatization
of a favorite Greek myth at 5:30
p.m. today over WUOM or the
same show at 10:45 a.m. tomor-
row over WPAG, in a speech de-
partment radio show.
Orpheus and Eurydice; a myth
which tells of a beautiful maiden
bitten by a scorpion, and her lo-
ver's :search for her in the realm
of Cerberos, was written for ra-
dio by Helene Burns as one of

eight similar stories for elemen-
tary children.
With this anecdote, our infor-
mant shambled into the Union
pool, room carrying a crooked cue
in one hand and clutching a ther-
mos bottle of Martinis inthe other,
rasping over his shoulder as he
went, "Fieldsians always win, by
fair means or foul - preferably
the latter."
