Why go to college good peapool instruction Heard something on the street the other day that really ticUed my Just as walked past these I wo little boys about eight old I heard one say If you gotta die why go to college So help mc that what he said I don know whether they were talking about nation or the Increase in university fees but it shook me rigid Why go to college indeed Especially if gotta die I went to college And went and went and went I started right after high school and what with one thing and another I was a married man with a child nine years later Nobody can mc you have to go to college to get Into predicament The first was there I learned three things shoot a pretty fair game of pea pool The second say I love you in Portuguese so I could converse with a babe I met from Brazil it goes The third was that I going to pass my exams so with a sudden burst of joined the Air Force just before Returning after the war I was a lot alder sadder and wiser 1 was determined to get down to business and make every minute count It was during this period of intense study that I learned some things that hate stood me in good stead during the years since The first was how to sleep during a lecture with my eyes open This has proved invaluable at church political meetings and the many afterdinner speeches inflicted on a weekly editor This period also gave me my first lesson in economics I had quite a bankroll when I was discharged My pay had built up while I was behind the barbed wire Will sir within a few months I had dis covered that you cannot live indefinately on vow capital Within a year I had learned two absolutely cannot live as cheaply unless one of them Despite he fact that all I picked up at college was family and a few bad habits I would strongly recommend it to any person Youll be amazed at how quick the learning seeps into you The very first time you re on holidays you II sec how far you ve outdistanced the folks at home on the farm Why your Dad prob

causes behind the French tion Your home town girl friend will swoon with delight as you puff your new pipe with an air and tell her emphatically that Schopenhauer philosophy puis women in their proper place mere vessels for the perpetuation of the race Trouble is nowadays going to college is becoming so expensive that about the only way you can get there is to have rich parents and make such a hellion of your self around town that theyll be glad to ship you off for four If your parents rich next best thing is to look over your elderly uncles and aunts who the pins or has a bad heart Take out a large insurance policy on auntie witn as the beneficiary Perhaps the richest reward of those col lege years is the wonderful friendships you make One fellow 1 knew very well at college is a big stage and television star now Butdoyouthinkhesforgottenhisold Friends Not a bit of it When I was In Toronto last fall went He shook hands with pleased as punch You think a big important chap like that have time to bother with a small town editor Not him Andhe going to pay me back that he borrowed just as soon big Broadway role He even gave me his autograph without mchaving to ask Thats the sort or real lasting friendships you build in college Maybe the kid who started all reminiscence was reallv saying If yu wanta pie I d go to GEORGETOWN 8775266 ACTON You may now charge your classified
