...HCUA's most important work during 1962 involved development of a sensible system of ticket distribution for athletic events and recommendations for improvement of the quality and variety of food from the Central Kitchen. Both reports were made after considerable study of the problems involved, and both were acted upon immediately by University departments. More important, the HCUA has established itself as an important outlet for legitimate undergraduate complaints about ticket distribution and the food...
...asked a Negro waitress, Mrs. Ethel Hill, 30, something about a firemen's fund. She said she did not know what he meant. "Don't say no to me, you nigger, say no, sir," said Zantzinger. He flailed her with the cane. She fled to the kitchen...
Cleveland, he says at every opportunity, "is my home." But the minute his schedule permits, he disappears to Europe, where he plays golf ("gladly but badly") and heckles his wife in the kitchen. He seldom entertains, but when he does his door may open on the maestro smiling absurdly from inside an apron that says "Whoopee" across the front.

Strolling Plastiqueur. His odyssey started in Reno, where he sang for $5 in a cafe. Twanging through Western Europe, North Africa, the Middle East and India, he did not always do so well. He slipped into the kitchen at the Royal Palace in Copenhagen and strummed away to the delight of three scullery maids. But Denmark's King Frederick IX came to see what the noise was, listened for a while in amusement, then returned to his throne, leaving a hungry Bohn behind. Arriving in Algeria at the wrong time (November 1961), he strum-a-strum-strummed through...
