ROULETTE Class Will IN THE NAME OF GOD— Amen. We, the students of the Senior Class of 1929, the ma- jority being of sound and gracious mind, do hereby decree and publish our last Will and Testament, to-wit: Item I. To Mr. Wolff, our principal friend, we bequeath one sport model cigar holder so that in case his box of Chancellors runs empty he can use any stump he may find with ab- solute safety. Item II. We bequeath to the man behind “The Missile,” Mr. Miller, a dime bank, wherein he may safely store the enormous profits of that magazine. Item III. To our civics teacher. Miss Guerrant, we leave a beau- tiful portrait of Lon Chaney to add to her collection of the world’s greatest men, which are draped around the wall of 303. Item IV. We bequeath to our hero of the tennis courts, Mr. Powers, a lovely metal loving cup to show our appreciation of his talent in this line. Item V. To our Spanish senorita. Miss Wilkie, we leave one set of hair curlers so that on large occasions she may have beautiful wringlets in her newly shorn locks. Item VI. To our dispenser of knowledge in the dead language, Mr. Gotten, we leave one bottle of Coca-Cola, as he has our sympathy in his great attempts to awake the dead. Item VII. To Miss Goodwin, our mathematics teacher, we be- queath a new mystery story, which is both hair raising — 76 —

ROULETTE and baffling. This book is written by Trigonometry X Al- gebra and comes highly recommended. Item VIII. We leave to the masculine member of our mathematics department, Mr. Burns, a highly valuable box of “ambition pills,” which are to be distributed to his class, that they may grow in wisdom. Item IX. To our French professor, Mr. Freas, we leave one black necktie so that the eyes of his pupils may have a rest. Item X. We bequeath to Miss Betty Sweeney, “Queen of Pots and Pans,” a new recipe for making soup economically with- out adding but 75 per cent of H-O. Item XL To Miss Browning, our typewriting teacher, we be- queath one record of “Sonny Boy” so that students can put real emotion and seriousness into their typewriting. Item XII. To Miss Leftwich we give one revolver that she may prevent the linking of her name with that of Mr. Freas in future issues of “The Roulette.” Item XIII. To Mr. Day we leave one l)aseball which he may present to the player who has knocked the greatest number of home runs in a game with John Marshall. Item XIV. And last, but not least, as the old saying goes, we leave to our good friend, Mr. Holmes, the address of the editor of the “True Story Magazine” so that “Sarge” may put some of his thrilling adventures into print. Witnesseth, the bond and seal of the Senior Class of 1929, on the 21st day of February in ye old year of 1929. —JAMES D’ALTON.
