TWO STUDENTS ATTEND FACULTY MASQUERADE  Two University students carried off a double masquerade Thursday night when they went disguised as clowns to the faculty masked ball at the Triangle club rooms.  So cleverly did the young man and woman play their parts that they remained at the party all evening without being detected, and succeeded in slipping away just before the unmasking.  Afterwards, the two miscreants confessed their deed to an Iowan reporter.  "It made me think of a riddle," giggles the girl. "When is a faculty not a faculty. When it's a masquerade ball." Honestly, the costumes were wonderful, and our professors had a good time, just like anybody else. I don't believe they once thought of mathematics or geology.  "Nobody even suspected us. In fact, we were quite the life of the party. The two of us were dressed exactly alike, with Mutt and Jeff masks. A man exclaimed that it was a pity one of us couldn't have half of the other's nose. I told him that one rarely ever did find the right combination of things in this world."  During the circle two-step, the young lady was accosted by one of the women, who looked dubiously at her clown suit. "Are you a lady?" asked the faculty member. And as the girl nodded, she pursued, "A perfect lady?"  Among the characters there were General Foch, a scarecrow, the summer man in white linen, Red Cross nurses, a little girl, and a splendid Turk, who squatted upon a table and refused to smile even when asked if he were a shriner.  When, just a little before 10 o'clock, some gay members of the party began to pull off slapstick stunts, the two clowns thought it time to slip away. Each forgot a handkerchief in the cloak room, and then, in their haste, almost fell down two flights of stairs. And then they fled out into the night.  Who were the mysterious couple? That will always be one of the unsolved mysteries of the University.   

STIPEND TO BE ALLOWED  The University awards annually a number of stipends to assistants, fellows, and scholars doing research work. The appointments for next year will be made next month. Any senior or graduate student interested in such appointments here or elsewhere should consult Dean C. E. Seashore of the graduate college soon.
