I had received assurances irom Lloyd and Harry that the 5&3 would be above that sort ot Thing. I would like to make a few remarks about this, starting Much Less with the Greeks, and then to go on to the Angelic Proctoscopist. If there is time and space leit over, perhaps 1 can make some ilimsy pretense of relevance to the need and wants of the Grinllell Community. Much less the Greeks, for a start, is not a seamless whole. There are, in fact many different sorts of Greeks, “Some Greeks are tall and some are small," “Some Greeks make us Glad and others make us Sad." But be that as it may, the Greeks in question, Much Less Aristotle and Plate were not all the Greeks. They werehothing more than Some oi the Athenians. Some other sorts ufGreeks were the Spartans, who were Kings Jock, Bar None of the Whole Show. They used to love nothing so much as to spend their days running about Flailing each other with Knouts and so on. This was a strenuous pastime, so at the end of their day, the Spartans would retire to their mess for a mess of Black Soup before retiring to their stone beds with blankets made of used hair shirts It was once remarked by an Athenian tourist that the iierceness oi the Spartan warriors could be accounted ior by the Black Soup alone, and Don't Bother about the Knouts etc. Who could possibly be afraid of death. after all after facing Black Soup7 (The writer will tactfully refrain from Comment here, Suffice it to say that if the logic 0] MUSINGS— Continued on page 6 W gfii’bmfiém Friday, May l, we COMING UP . ..

Hailles and Read lought a TM softball, so last week things due] for first place in the stand. illgs, and the smoke still hasn‘t cleared from the game. From where I saw it in left field (and the bench after committing two errors) it looked like Read was out—psyched by the redoubtable Dave Brown and the Homes crew, with the Machine striking out and making errors. Haines got 12 runs, and Read struggled for a or 4, which should give Haines a win. How ever, it seems that Al Ham- mond was illegal (which isn't a very nice thing to say about him), so Read has filed a pro- test. At last report, both sides had presented non-negotiable demands, and Haines has lined up Dave Horwatt to talk to Read for them. No details of a settlement will be released for some time, so until further notice, Clark is in first place. Both Read and Haines followed that game with losses, Read dropping a hard-fought contest to the Profs 87, and Haines be- ing dumped by East 18-13. Read didn’t ,have Amazing Mason Klippel (The Rifle Arm) in right field, and the Faculty was real strong behind their young phenom George Apostle and veteran Greg Guroff. Ed Le- vine knocked in 4 runs in East‘s first Victory, and Brad Hanson homered in both the Read and East games for Haines. The Read-Faculty game also fea- tured a meaningful dialogue about some strange baserun- ning by Mahler and Farsinnen, who demonstrated that two bodies cannot occupy the same space. A faculty meeting was held on the mound as to whether or not Andy Loewi should be given an intentional walk. A senate committee and Tom Greenfield are looking into the matter.
