"FINE!" SAYS DELCEVARE KING OF ADVOCATE OFFER

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"That's fine! Let us turn on the light and get people thinking!" was the comment of Delcevare King '95 when informed of the Advocate's prize contest for the best word stigmatizing Drys.

Mr. King, whose own prize contest resulted in the dubbing of prohibition violators as "Scofflaws", went on to say: "People can poke fun at the idea that the violator of law is a menace to the government, but after all law is the basis of government.

Despite his enthusiasm for the Advocate's contest, however, Mr. King offered no epithet with which to brand the "Anti-scofflaw".
