Show GLEN, THE PEOPLE'S PIPSQUEAK, MULCTS PALS /A . b ?"? t&f"" Shady Glen at work dipping hand in (a) other people's business, (b) committee cash drawers, (c) ballot box, (d) Phi Delt Funds, (e) general sin (f) and General Grant. In the fall of 1925 the University of Utah waited breathlessly for the advent of the two political sages of the era-Ogden's two foremost student politicians. Little did this eager university know that disillusionment was at hand, and that in two years the political octopi would have their tentacles firmly wrapped around the administrative organs of the institution. For four years these two black witches of Utah's politics worked in their suave apple-polishing maimer, making the gullible victims believe that they would dole out their kingdom, but in reality taking the shirts from their backs. Under the regime of the two, graft and corruption was at its height, but since George has gone, Jay has failed miserably to uphold the dark standards of the "shady Glens." Instead of upholding these traditions, he has risen to the level of a squealcr-to-dean-of-men. After twice warning the petty gamblers in the Utonian office, who grated on his upright and honest nature, Glen departed for parts unknown. Immediately after, the Dean of Men strode into the office and pointed an accusing finger. "I hated to do it, but I tattled to the Dean only for the boy's own good," says Glen, self-appointed Mrs. Grundy. A little bit of authority swells up the head until King complex breaks loose in unrestrained perversity. Fie takes himself as the infallible standard of what ought to be. Glen, who is of hopeful importance mentally, and a natural Peeping Tom, will doubtless become, through training and talent, the father of a dozen pickaninnies. Jay (Squealer) Glen, as the artist saw him after a hard day's corruption at the office. 332 |
