During the kindergarten year,pupils are given workbooks. On_the basis of a student’s progressin the w'orkbooks and his achieve¬ment on the test, the teacher re¬commends the placement of thestudent.Mrs. Gerald Matchet, of 5536S.

They shook hands then and squeezer!each other’s slfOulders and exchanged brave smiles, and if theireyes were a trifle moist, who can blame them?For a'time things went swimmingly. Then a cloud appeared.Mary Ellen, it seems, was a rich girl and accustomed to costlypleasures. Poseidon was bone-poor and he quickly ran out ofmoney. Unable to take Mpry Ellen to the posh places shefancied and-too proud to tell her the reason, he turned surly andfull of melancholy. Soon their romance, so promising at thebeginning, was headed for a breakup. But at the last moment,Poseidon managed to blurt out the truth.“Oh, beloved agrarian!” cried Mary Ellen, grappling himclose. “Oh, proud husbandman! Oh, foolish reaper! Why haveyou not told me l>efore? I have plenty of money, and I willcontribute according to my ability.”Poseidon, of course, protested, but she finally persuaded himof the wisdom of her course. From then on they split all expensesaccording to their incomes. Rather than embarrass Poseidon byhanding him money in public, a joint bank account was set upto allow him to write checks. Into this account each week theyfaithfully deposited their respective allowances—35 cents fromPoseidon; $2300 from Mary Ellen.And it worked fine! They were happy—truly happy! Andwhat’s more, when they graduated they had a nice little nestegg—eight million dollars^-with which to furnish a lovelyapartment in Lubbock, Texas, where today they operate thelocal laundromat.So you see?

I ventureto suggest that the source of in¬formation lor your feature storyc COG (committee on'grass) oflast Wednesday was not entirelyaccurate.First of all, you say that COGcame into being “for the purposeof insuring the growth of grassin the circle of the quadrangles.”This is far too circumscribed aview of the purposes of COG. The interests of COG not only extendacross the entire campus, theyspan the nation, cross nationalborders, and reach out into spaceas far as space extends. We pro¬mote, defend, and protect grasswherever it may be found — onearth, on Mars, and on all otherplanets on which it may haveevolved.We encourage grass not onlyfor its beauty but also for utili¬tarian reasons. All flesh is grass.Grass is the basis of hay. With¬out it there would be no grassskirts.

We all shook hands then andsqueezed each other's shoulders and exchanged brave smiles,and if our eyes were a trifle moist, who can blame us?To the topic then: Should a coed share expenses on a date?I think I can best answer the question by citing the followingtypical case:Poseidon Nebenzal, a student at Oklahoma A and M, major¬ing in hides and tallow, fell wildly in love with, Mary EllenFlange^ a flax weevil major at the same school. His love, he had on, to He on, and for fireflies tolive in.You say that President Beadlechairs the committee on grass.That is not so. There is nochairman. There are no officersof any kind. We are unalterablyand utterly opposed to bureau¬cracy and administrative machin¬ery. There are no meetings, nodues, no sub-committees, no pub¬lications, no insignia, and no ini¬tiations. There is no membershiplist. Only the love of grass bindsthe members together.You say also that “COG ... iscomposed primarily of membersof the administration.” That isnot so. COG counts among itssupporters faculty members, stu¬dents, staff, trustees and alumniof the University, as well ashousewives, business men, poli¬ticians, statesmen, artists, andmany others. In fact, members ofthe University administration arelooked upon with some suspicionby COG, for they have a long anddismal record of failure in theirefforts to promote the greatcause 0f grass.'In addition to correcting theseerrors of fact, I hope you willencourage your readers to jointhe rapidly growing ranks ofCOG. It is an easy matter. Asimple affidavit stating that thesigner does not believe in the de¬struction of gi’ass will get him orher into COG. For those whoabhor affidavits, submission (viathe Maroon, perhaps?) of a suit¬able slogan will do. In fact, thesimple avoidance of the unsightlypaths that criss-cross the quad¬rangles will qualify anyone for deanmembership.Yours for more and better grass,Leva B. Greene To the editor:What the administration hasoverlooked in presenting theirarguments on the discipline com¬mittee is a principle: an academicinfringement should entail anacademic punishment, whereas, asocial infringement should entaila social punishment.What sense is there in forcing agirl to fall a half-year behind inher studies because she failed toobey a non-academic regulation?It is as sensible as setting up aneight o'clock curfew’ for a studentcaught cheating on an examina¬ tion.Reason, moderation, and a justconsideration of the question tellsus that a policy which does notdistinguish between academic andnon-academic infringements is ofnecessity unreasonable, -excessive,and must entail injustice.Furthermore, a man who em¬bodies such a policy, and thosewho w’ould defend him in thatpolicy, must be assuming the maskof hypocrisy or manifesting a lackof sense.Harold S.
