I, Lyle Barron, will my sex appeal (what little I have) to Charles Thacher because he could use some. I, Wilma Bean, will my voice to Carolyn Henry who is trying. I, John Bey, will my stolen supplies to Lynn Phelan because no one would be able to take art next year if I didn't. I, Jim Burdett, will my height to Eddie Phillips, who just doesn't look right the way he is. I, Douglas Burdick, will the Cadillac to Freddy Olin because it's a lot better than the Chevy he's driving now! I, Jeanette Burdick, will my farm to Alise Ogden who really doesn't really need it. I, Soupy Campbell, will my trips to Hornell to Dick Goodwin because he is trying but needs a push. I, Joyce Clair, will nothing to nobody because I'm going to keep it all for myself. I, Francis Clancy, will my shortness to Mr. Schmidt, just because. I, Margaret Clancy, will my talkativeness to Nancy Cliquennoi who really doesn't need it.

I, Annjie Mitchell, will my ability to drog out of bed at 6:00 A.M. to any Junior who thinks history is worth it.
