Flash: University
Buys Pickles-
29,000Of Them
From sources too personal to mention
here, the Daily has uncovered the
astonishing fact that the University of
Michigan has become the proud possess-
or of three barrels of pickles from:one
of the large pickle dispensers of north-
ern Michigan. These three barrels con-
tain some 29,000 gherkins (sliced) and
some 12,000 mustards (not sliced). It
has been estimated by well-known pickle
authorities that this is enough for 27
years of Ruthven teas, if one out of
every two tea-goers eats pickles. This,
of course, discounts the fact that Presi-
dent Ruthven and Bud may sneak down
in the basement and take a few on the
side.
This immense amount of pickles is
enhanced by the- fact that the Univers-
ity may already have vast stores of
pickles under one of their buildings.
J-Hop Blues
The J-Hop is a lovely thing,
At;least, so we've beo -told.
Its praises all the co-eds rsig,
Its wonders are untold.
And how those girls rave on and on
About bands and songs andrsuch.
But the reason that we've never one

if You Missed
Last J-Hop,
Here Is Why
If you are going to the J-Hop you
will probably want to know how to get
there. Last year, 78 people missed the
Hop because they were unable to find
the place, despite high spirits. Seven
thousand other people missed the Hop
because they did not have tickets. So
maybe we had better tell you how to get
tickets, first.
However, our ticket office tells us
there are no more tickets available-
tho there are three scalpers in a walk-
up above the fire-station who wish they
had sold their tickets before the J-Hop
took place.
As to the location of the J-Hop. It is
in Ann Arbor. Specifically, it is in the
Intramural Building. That's where you
are now if you are there. If you aren't
you had better read this. If you can't
read, it probably won't make any dif-
ference where you are-as long as you
aren't already waiting for your first
eight o'clock.
Don't take a train, for no trains go
by the Intramural. Don't wait for a
street car, for those tracks are just to
fool the hoboes. Don't hire a boat, for
this is still too early in the spring. Air-
planes are too dangerous. And the
Regents won't allow cars.
What does that leave-any taxi driv-
er can tell you.
