Fires Explode Myth

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

An enduring myth has been exploded. Or rather burned, as in the above picture. Shown is Max Dometri, associate professor of Eskimo Osculation, burning examination blue books before the time appointed by a "College ruling" which allegedly states that instructors must keep blue books for a year after exams.

Professor Dometri was one of the first to learn that the ruling had never been in existence. Miss Blanche Woodward, a secretary in Dean Bundy's office, yesterday confirmed the fact that no such requirement has ever been made official.

Blue book fires are reported to have ket local fire department equipment moving all night. The brightest glow was seen near Eliot House.

Senator McCarthy could not be reached for comment on the book burning.
