Title

The Skyscraper: Twisters Hit College

Description

A satirical article by Pat Krochmal covers the "new epidemic [that] has broken out at Mundelein." The author describes the "symptoms" of The Twist, or "Twistentia Praecox," which "is thought to be activated by an abnormal pounding rhythm commonly found in the Phoenix Room." Jokingly, Krochmal describes the efforts of medical researchers to find the origin, and warns that it may spread rapidly.
