Education: For Good Old N.Y.U.

For $5, a student at New York University could throw a pie in somebody’s face last week—and have the added satisfaction of knowing that he was helping the fund for a student-union building. Armored in long raincoats, volunteer pie stoppers received volleys in their choice of six flavors: huckleberry, cherry, apple, chocolate, lemon meringue and banana cream. Speech Professor Alan Coutts, who is also director of student activities and a veteran of a similar pie sling a year ago, heartily recommended banana cream. “That’s pretty nice; I tried it last year.” Later, grimacing bravely, Coutts stepped forward and got a 1951 facial of lemon meringue. Day’s take for the building fund: $115.
