There is a suggestion of such lunacy in the opening scene of "Horse Feathers". Imagination staggers at the thought of what the campus life would have been like, had the character 'Groucho' conducted a course on love with the expert assistance of the college widow who figures in the story, creating perhaps a few more widows from among professors' wives, had the character 'Harpo' been appointed to the combined professorship of dog-catching and harp-playing and had 'Chico' been made the head of the college speakeasy and a professor of bootlegging.
