Business is the OI“ypr<:~ tense on which anyone shall be allowed entry. Volpe Donates Basket A waste basket, too, has found its way into the office. The story goes that its donor, Mrs. Marie Volpe, utterly astonished by the transfor-j mation, presented it as an incentive to keep the office in order. However, out goes the waste paper basket, she has declared, if all is not kept spic and span. But how did all this happen? Those who remember will say that inspiration was kindled when Byron Zalph, ex-business manager, received his “Greetings . . .” It was realized that now an end would come to 8:30 a.m. shaves in the H’cane office, and the ever present threat of more footprints on the ceiling would cease. Hank Gets The Spirit Thursday Hank Levenson took it upon himself, with Lee Starr’s help to hustle up the paint from the property manager and started thei work. Seeing his enthusiastic ef-i forts, Caryl Beatus, a kibitzer, eager to get her hands in the paint, offered her services, certain that two hours would finish the job.

She remarked that she’d be scrub--' hir.g paint for the next week, let alone Hank, who had become part of the wall.

A requisitioned rug was carefully smuggled through the portals. Those irregularly placed bags were tom from the walls and in their stead was substituted a slapstick mailbox ¡in which each editor, both man and woman, was given a hole. An overall paint brush, well supplied with varnish, gave the tops of the desks a new mirror-like glow. Blotters, of course, were added to preserve the tops from those cartoonists who enjoy scraping out Varga girls in the paint. Ash trays were placed by geometric functions so that it was managed that all who entered would either sit upon an ash Stray or next to one. OPA Threatens Plans are being formulated to rent furniture, which will include a sofa and an easy chair. In fact, it is feared that soon the OPA will be compelled to grant a rent ceiling. The Hurricane office looks well enough to live in! Housing Drive Begun By Vets Today at noon a drive was started to canvass every house in Coral Gables in an effort to find living quarters for University students. Started by the Veterans’ association, the drive is under the direction of Ted Wayne, laison officer of the group who has recently returned from the service. Ted is trying to enlist the aid of all students in this effort to find spare rooms, garage apartments, or attic space. The city has been divided into sixteen sections, each headed by a captain, who will be aided by five or six students. Anyone desiring to assist has been asked to contact President John Cullen. The housing situation is now so critical that some veterans have been to the surplus property board to see if it were possible to get a tent. One boy has been sleeping in the veterans’ office at the University. Trailer possibilities have been ruled out because city regulations state that “the city beautiful” shall have none. Anyone knowing of a possible lead to available living space has been requested to turn over the information to the Association.
