Brat A?r. famous cartoonist and originator of Winnie Winkle in an interview for the Hurricane. “Women,” he continued, “are more apt to look first at the practical side of things and usually find less to laugh about. This has been my experience in over a decade of cartoon work.” Mr. Brahner was of the opinion that work on a college newspaper was invaluable to the young cartoonist and aspiring journalist, and cited as examples several acquaintances of his who now hold enviable positions in their professions. “Be original. Perfect your own individuality and style,” was his advice. “A copied style,” Mr. Bran-ner said, “is not lasting, nor does it ring true. As to one’s ultimate success. I agree with the statement I that genius is 99hard work, yet I believe that luck and the breaks of the game play an important part in anyone’s success. However, don't get discouraged at the first couple of rejection slips.” Winnie Winkle came into being about ten years ago, more as a result of orders from headquarter.-than as an inspiration. Mr. Bran-ner disclosed. At that time his strip called “Louie' the Lawyer" was being run in several papers, but a shortage in the supply of young girl comic strips led to the editors suggesting that he adopt such a theme. Mr, Branner promised faithfully that he had no intention of marrying off Winnie, for, as he said, "She’s my breadwinner. I don’t dpre have her marry, because, after all, marriage is the end of romance —that is, in comic strips,” he added, glancing fearfully over his Shoulder at the kitchen door. The members of the staff of the Hurricane will be hosts to the Florida Inter-Collegiate Press Association when that body holds it-sixth annual convention at the University of Miami during the latter part of March. The Association is made up of delegates from the papers of the University of Florida, Florida State College for Women, Rollins, Stetson, and Southern. They have all been invited to attend. The Hurricane staff is getting plans under way for providing housing and entertainment for the delegates. Tentative arrangements for a banquet are being considered, and several prominent figures in the journalistic world will be invited to speak, if present plans are completed. A. J. “Dad” Elliot, widely known lecturer and Associate Secretary of the Student Division of the Y.M.C.A., will begin a six-day stay at the University on March 3rd. He is being brought here by the Y.M.C.A. and will spend five days in religious discussion. "Dad’s” message will be nonsectarian. and nothing that he will say in any of his addresses would offend a member of any denomination or creed. His topics will deal with moral conditions and spiritual realities on college campuses: This is the longest visit Elliott has made at any school in the South and this is his first appearance in" Florida. Dr. Elliott is said I to be a broad-minded, fearless speaker, speaking with a sincerity and earnestness which holds attention from start to finish. "Dad” is a Delta Tau Delta from Northwestern University and was named All-Western end on the Varsity football squad and captain of the track team, in 1901. Since his graduation he has made an enviable reputation as a religious lecturer for the student Y.M.C.A. in the West. The fact that classes will be j postponed or excused for his lectures indicate their importance. All students are urged to attenil them alihough they are not compulsory.
