Bemused

After two years of reading
The Daily Regress, The
Cavalier Daily, and listening to
comments in the West stands
during football season, I've
been somewhat bemused by
the balance missing from
comment on Harrison Davis.

It is not verbalized, if

so many years ago. He is doing
it with far fewer years of
experience in coping with overt

More recent examples of
primary process thinking by
"gentlemen" who believe a
degree from the U. or the
expenditure of $7 entitles
them to make the kind of
scurrilous comments about our
quarterback that one can hear
any home game in the West
stands is only infrequently
contradicted either verbally or
in writing.

I suspect that by now Mr.
Davis has correctly concluded
that, short of changing color,
