Quite frankly, we are rapidly getting bored with those enthusiastic Freshmen who find a tasty repast for the athletic field in the young ladies from Miss Winsor's. Our Romeoetical complexes never have been satisfied by plump maidens, attired in healthy bloomers, who shriek with delight as they force their Lotharios to wallow in the mud.

If Kanzler Dollfuss prefers this kind of morning repast, his taste is unique and, therefore, news. But is TIME sure of its potatoes? . . .
