Wily Scot Sneaks Into Hop
By OLLIE JENSEN
Shake hands with Angus, the
wiley Scot-he squeezed past J-
Hop for 13 cents.
You all know Angus, he's a Bus
Ad. major.
He can tell you what the buffalo
an a nickel is thinking about. He's
always kind to Indians because
they're pictured on a penny.
AND HE'S ONE man who can
ALWAYS stop on a dime.
Angus' lady began hinting the
15th of January. "Charlie Spiv-
ak and Elliot Lawrence are go-
ing to play at J-Hop" she vol-
unteered as they celebrated Sat-
urday night with a brisk walk to
Ypsilanti.
"They're both dope fiends"
grumbled the Scot, slashing his
hand on a piece of glass that glit-
tered like a nickel on the sidewalk.
"I'D LIKE to hesr them."
"We'll turn on the radio."
"I'd like to SEE them," (more
emphatically).
"How about you and me check-
ing coats "
The Scot's lady was firm. If
they didn't go to J-Hop, she wsas
through. He could get someone
manding student driving permits
of all drivers, and by nightly
raiding local pubs in search of
under-age guzzlers.
Several beach clubs were even
forced to rig a special buzzer sys-
tems to warn patrons when Fliv-
vernip descended upon them.
Early today Chamber of Com-
merce membersafinally shoved him
on the northbound plane. snd
they didn't seem to be one damn
bit sorry to see him go.
Seven Equals Nine
ROME-September-the ninth
month of the year-received its
name from the latin word "sep-
tem"n which means seven.
The slight error was overlooked
when Julius Caesar added two
months to the Roman Calendar.
else to darn his teabag and
collect old dental floss, she said
defiantly, and Angus finally
-gave in as they passed Pitts-
field Village on the return trip.
The next morning the memory
>f what he'd promised caused one
sf the worst hangovers of his life.
It was a week before he mustered
she courage to ask his room-mate
"Double Jackson" Jones. how
much a ticket to the Hop cost.
FORGETTING psychology com-
pletely, Jonles blurted out "seven
fifty" and you could hear the
Scot's ulcers pop all along Hill
street. He was in a coma for four
days, missed three finals and a
free lecture on basket weaving in
the Rackham Amphitheatre.
The first thing Angus decided
about tickets is that he wouldn't
buy one. Sharking up a plan, he
dressed carefully, and before
picking up his date pocketed 13
cents, determined to follow
"Iron Hat" Tittle's famous party
advice - "always travel first
class."
The night of the hop was one to
remember. The bonny loss shook
with excitement as she pinned on
the handsome heather corsage
Angus brought (little knowing
he'd inherited it from his father
and that it had been used at
Michigan dances for 37 consecu-
tive years.)
ANGUS AND HIS LAflY toast-
ed the occasion with the best
bathtub gin six cents would buy.
They dined royally on seven cents
worth of bread and peanut butter
(the Scot explained that the Red
coach would be too crowded at
that hour.)
The stars were crisp and
bright above them as they
peddled through the velvet
night. The Scot's lady sailed up
the steps of the IM building and
past the gss.utd, explaining that
her date was "Psrkissg the car."
Hiding the lkue 'ehind a bush,
Angus doffed his long black coat
and donned a lostg blonde wig, His
Scotch kilts were handsome but
shockingly short. He also mounted
the IM steps, mustered a fine fal-
setto "my date's parking the car,"
and asashayed. into the building.
THE TICKET TAKEiiWS jaw
hung. "Would ye look at that
homely coed with the big nose and
the black eyebrows," he saida to
his partner. "Faith 'n if my ole
woman was ever to wear a skirt
that short I'd beat her proper-
LOOK AT THEM KNEES."
And so it was that Angus and
his lady (who's quick to forgive
and a trifle Scotch herself) went
to the J-Hop for 13 cents and
some kilts. And if there be any
who are inchned to doubt the
story, call 2-6173 and make an
appointment 'ith Angus to see
the lovely gcsd compact that he
