In rescuing a young girl, Mona Freeman, from a notorious swindler named Chico, who forces the inhabitants of the valley to pay him enormous taxes, the three bandits run afoul of the rangers. To save Carey who is captured by the law, Bendix and Holden join the rangers and eventu­ ally get to like it, abandoning their old life for one that is on the side of law and order.

Y. 18, N. Y. Someone, probably Kipling, wrote a poem that went some­ thing like this: "A fool there was, and he made his prayer. To a rag, a bone, and a hank of hair." Judging from the variety of aromas arising from pipes on and about the campus, Siena's pipe- lovers utilize all three: the rag, the bone, and the hank of hair as fill-ins when the tobacco supply rims short. Davis Etkin, a junior, and a con­ firmed pipe smoker, informed a Siena News reporter that he has been smoking a pipe for two years, "Ever since there was a sale on pipes in Schenectady." When ques­ tioned as to his taste in pipe tobaccos, Etkin replied, "Oh, I'm not really much of a judge, you see, I'm still using the same tobacco I bought with that pipe at the sale." ^ Etkin indicated that he intended to add to his pipe collection, "as soon as there's another sale." Leonard Longe, freshman, i; former (Track Coach please note) pipe smoker who gave up the pleasures of pipe smoking for track. Longe had been smoking for four years and claims a pipe was cheaper than cigarettes, "and besides, the girl friend thought I looked like man of distinction with a pipe my mouth." Dick Vecciarelli, junior, has been smoking for only one week. He tried a pipe in order to eliminate a cigarette cough and found that he liked its soothing aroma. (Said soothing aroma appeared to be the result of Vecciarelli's mistaking rolled cabbage leaf for pipe to­ bacco) . Chris Verville, freshman, has been smoking a pipe since Christmas, when his girl gave him one as a present. Verville likes pipe smok­ ing because he uses his father's tobacco. Off the record, Verville indicated he didn't think much of his father's taste in pipe tobacco, but it doesn't cost him anything, so he hasn't complained. After lengthy research, experts have arrived at the foUowing start­ ling conclusion: if all the pipe tobacco smoked by Siena students during the course of one year was piled in a single heap and ignited, what a terrific bon fire would re­ sult!
