LAMPOON EDITORS PROTEST SOBRIETY OF ANIMAL GUESTS

In a statement given out at the Lampoon building yesterday, President J. O. Whedon '27, declared: "There is absolutely no truth in the story which appeared in the CRIMSON this morning. It is true that a party was held, but it was a quiet affair with no morons present. The Lampoon resents the implied slur on the reputation of the innocent turkey, who did no more than to lose her head. Incidently, a good time was had by all."

But Mr. S. D. Richards '27, Lampoon Business Manager, is quoted as saying, that although the expenses of these coming-out parties were terrific, this new departure in policy was certainly worthwhile for advertising purposes. Confidentially it is rumored that Mr. Richards is planning to go into the turkey business, since the menagerie has practically ruined his stock of new Dutch tiling.
