But before leaving I four appearances, hopes run high that would like to take a final rundown on the sporting scene at WMC. Catholic U. will supply the WMC Last night's snow provided plenty of entertainment for the quintet with a victory, and that a win male population on campus, and I suspect most of the fairer sex were far from bored: It all began when ANW decided that DM needed some exercise. So a delegation was sent over to invite their neighbors to come out and play. They did. Result: chalk up one for the Dan McLea boys. But pelting one another can prove to be tiring unless there is some diversion. So, a truce was declared, a conference called, and a combined delegation was sent to the vicinity of Blanche Ward and McDaniel to invite the girls to join the fun. It seems the ladies, though, were busy doing the laundry and washing out their waste cans, and didn't have time to open the doors and come out. But they managed to lure the unsuspecting men to the windows with promises of better days if the boys would take the laundry and do it for them. Reluctantly the boys gave in after much coaxing and with their treasures wearily retreated, tactically, home. Rumor has it that despite the careful planning, the raid was not a surprise, and that a female counter-attack was directed by telephone from D.M. A careful survey of the premises afterward revealed a few drafts in some of the windows, some bruises, but no bodies.
