Belmont Hig ' h School’s new democratic policy is true democracy. The Student Council was org-anized this year under a new plan. Two representatives from every homeroom formed the main body while five members were elected at large from each class to act as the advisory hoard. The advisory hoard ajjpointed assem- bly, ways and means, social, fire drill, and poster commissions from the entire student body. The Student Council ag ' ain s])onsored a series of assemldies and started on plans for an early spring ' formal to raise money for a haufiuet for the school athletes at which time they will he awarded their letters. The officers are Ruthe Daniels, President; James Shute, dce- President ; and Daniel fVelack, Treasurer. i Ir. Higginhot- tom is the adviser, and James I ' oust, chairman of the advisorv hoard. Mk.

The meetings were conducted entirely in I ' rench, with ])arliamentary proceedings through- out. AuKJug the Club’s diversified activities were French games; an annual contest in written and oral I ' rench; a visit to Brookline High School to hear an address by Professor Henri Pyre of ' ale ; an address by Miss Genevieve Mayer of Radcliffe; and the isit of Ih ' ofessor .Andre Morize of Harvard. The “Cercle Francais serves as a means of furthering the students’ knowledge of the French language, country, and customs. W ith the leader- shi]) and inspiration of Miss Bridey, the Club may confidently look forward to a still more glorious future. ' D o BROADEN the intellectual, moral, and social life of its members, and to he of service to the school,” in the words of the founder, Gertrude L. Miller, is the i)urpose of the club. Taking a prominent position in the school’s extra-curricula activities this year, we have attempted to fulhll this aim in the selection of the entertainment for club meeting ' s, d ' he speakers have included Air. E. P. Gates of the Belmont School Committee; Miss Nell Giles, author of “Susan Be Smooth”; Mrs. Jackson Yon Ladau, of the Jackson h)n Ladau School of Fashion; and Aliss Hilda Wdiite, a social worker from the Family Welfare As.sociation. Highlights of the year comprised a fashion show which was coml)ined with the annual tea and a formal dance in May. The othcers were President, Helen Mas.son; Vice-President, Ruthe Daniels; Secretary, ' ir- ginia Scollan ; and Treasurer, Ruth Abbott.

The purpose of the organization is “the furtherance of an appreciation and clearer under- standing of Roman culture and literature.” Meetings are conducted with the officers wear- ing Roman dress approjtriate for their corres- j.

In response to the national emergency, the ac- tivities of the club were extended to include ad- ditional projects supervised by Miss Woodruff. The enterprises comprised the creation of articles of clothing- for children and the knitting of many sweaters and scarfs for soldiers and sailors. According to the usual custom, the club spon- sored Thanksgiving baskets, a Christmas party for needy children, a drive for funds, and an in- formal dance, which was held in April. The club was represented in the Metropolitan Chapter by Don Halloran, the senior representa- tive, and Isabell Kelleher, the junior represen- tative. Cj xo±± [11] Prum Majors IkKXF.

Free- man, gloried in their music at all Belmont ' s foot- ball games; from the Maynard tussle to the climactic Watertown fray. An added attraction this year was a four man color guard which also made its a])i)earance at the rugby games. I ' all saw the hand i)resenting a Concert and Dance which terminated neither successfully nor unsuccessfully. Directed by a student conductor, the hand entertained the physical educators from all sections of the state who congregated at the High School for their conference in March. Concluding their playing at Mr. Stone’s annual concert, the hand consummated its season by play- ing for the Memorial Day parade and the Senior graduation.

Part of its serxdce functions is to ])rovide music for various civic and educational events in Pelniont and surrounding communities. The orchestra has aj peared at numerous Parent- Teacher Association meetings, school club meet- ings, and for educational meeting ' s of all tyi)es. A string trio under the direction of Miss Pauline Young, assistant in the Music Dei)art- ment, has also been active this year and it has been of great service to the school and community. We wish them the best of luck. May they achieve the success due them in years to come.

The as.sociation, in addition, assisted pupils in the completion of studies missed throiiy h extended absence. Seeing a necessity for awarding the athletic honors earlier in the year, the organization dis- played its enterpri.se and ability by successfully accomplishing this end. Those actively engage l were Ruth Abbott. Audrey Cline. Philip Dorman. David Franklin. Gloria T.awrenson. Catherine T.ombardo. Helen Masson, Mary Millett, and P etty W ' eichel. The society’s officers for the year were Presi- dent. Gordon Knight : dce-President. James Foust; Secretary. Joan ’right: Treasurer. hNther Keenan: and Adviser, Mr. Mevers. [Ifliz VIL i j ' UE Girl Reserve Clur, whose niember- y ship has increased yearly, has completed another successful season under the direc- tion of Miss Richmond, Adviser; Mary White, President: Gloria Le])ore, Vice-President: Felisia Raah, Secretary: cand Antoinette Spuria, Treas- urer. Among ' the many activities this year were a “W eenie Roast” at W ' averley Oaks, an annual Christmas Supper, a alentine dance and a mother-daughter tea. The guest speakers in- cluded Miss Doris Poland, who spoke on “Hair Styles and Make-up,” and Mrs. Jean Page, who demonstrated the latest dance stejxs. Tn service for others the girls ])repared and distributed eifts for the ])oor at Christmas time and gave magazines to the soldiers ; also they contributed to the Community Fund. Since the Girl Reserve Club is affiliated with the Y.W.C.A.. the girls of our club have had many opjiortunities to join in the actix ities of the Y. Y. C. A. in P)Oston. [ 15 A regular nieeting- was held each month at which a pro«:ram was ])resente(l under the direction of a student committee. Instead of a three act play, the major i)roduction this year consisted of three one-act plays, produced under the direction of Mr. h. dmund M. MacCloskey of the school fac- ulty. Three plays. “Callino- All Cars.” “Four Hundred Xio-hts.” and “Heritaj e of W ' impole Street were a j reat success and marked the heo inninsi of “better dramatic productions” for the future. The cluh is £3:rateful to Mr. Arthur P). T.ord. Jr., and Mr. XMrinan Rrule for their fine assistance with regard to statue .settins s and technical direction. The officers of the cluh this year were Bonnie Sander.son, j)resident, and Hillard W elch. secretary-treasurer. [ 16] ORRECT ])arlianientary procedure, free f s])eech, and tolerance of opposing opinion were the ideals of the Public S] eaking Club which has completed a very successful year. Mrs. Hornsey’s excellent advice and sug- gestions turned the efforts of the nieinhership into the proper channels. Public forums by club members furnished the club with much opi)ortunity for individual tr ain- ing in platform speaking and ])roved informative by hrinsing out cross sections of opinion. The Club met with some success in interscho- lastic debates as evidenced by unanimous decisions in its favor in debate with two Concord teams. Another debate with Somerville, held before the Senior class at an assembly, was lost hut fur- nished opportunity for public appearance. Club officers: Hillard W ' elch, President; Ralph Coon, Vice-President ; Gloria Lepore, Secretary ; and Rhoda Pearlmutter, Treasurer.

Among its activities were the promotion of a rally preceding the Watertown game, the forma- tion of a club basketball competition, attendance of many members at the State Conference at Fitchburg, and finally the Annual Bampiet. Featured at the weekly meetings were many prominent sj)eakers, group discussions, and movies. Mr. Flildreth and Mr. Storer provided facult} ' guidance and ably supervised the group. From a small group of seven members the club has now grown to a membership of forty hoys and bids fair to become the leading hoys organization in the scIkk)!. [ 18 1 DL a amETia ry HE Camera Club, organized in Novein- her under the sponsorship of Mr. Ship- man and Miss Coring, soon grew to be a popular rendezvous for photogTaphy enthusiasts. MMrk and play were shared by all . There were several interesting programs put on during the year by the members. The more amateur members were shown elementary en- larging and printing while the more advanced talked technically of lenses, and composition seemed to interest all. Some of the most inter- esting programs were j)ut on through the courtesy of Eastman Kodak Company consisting of lec- tures and slides on subjects of interest to all. A dark room was cleared and ecjuipped for use through mutual effort by the members of the club and the cooperation of Mr. Shipman by giv- ing the use of his enlarger. The prints that have been appearing in the library are the winners of the “Print of the Month” Contest.

The purpose of this club is to make available to its members current books as soon as they are ]niblished. The club is self-supporting since the members contribute a small amount of money each week, and this money is used to purchase the books. A rotating schedule is used and books are exchanged once a week. This jirocess makes it possible for the memhers to read forty or fifty books purchased by the club. All types of books are purchased so that a balanced reading pro- gram is ])ossible. Each one of the ninety-five members has enjoyed to the utmost the oppor- tunities provided for them by the club. Our club library will contain over a hundred volumes by the close of the year. These boiAs will he jiassed on to next year ' s members with the hope that thev may enjov them as much as we have. 120 ] Dlls Dili CU T SKI CLUB was formed at the Hioh y I School with surprising ' results. The originators who expected only enough students to compete in a meet were astounded when over seventy-five prospective members an- swered the first call for membership. The club has and will have a unique form of org ' aniza- tion. It was decided that a standing board of six members would take the place of the usual club officers. Plans were made for meets and trips hut be- cause of the poor weather conditions only one meet went through on schedule. This one meet with Arlington ended in a nine to nine tie. It is hoped by the present members and the stand- ing board that the club will increase in activity and scope as the years go on.

The hallowed halls of Orchard Prep somehow resembled that famed comic-strip town Skunk Hollow. A tinv pig seemed much at home mingling with the curiously costumed seniors. Photographers, ] rizes and a bang-up dance completed the day ' s mer- riment. Another gold star goes to the class of ’42 for the success of Decem- ber fifth. 1 ). H. S. students colorfully clad in winter regalia could be seen ap- proaching from all directions bringing with them ecpiipment necessary to make the day a gala event. There was general skiing and tobogganing until noon when refresh- ments, consisting of cocoa and sandwiches were served at the Club House. Our faculty, namely the Messrs. ’enner, Xagle and Newell, attempted to coast down the hill on a toboggan ( Mr. Newell lasted only halfway down). Ski races followed this famous ride, Rrling Ivlafstad skiing away with all the honors. As the afternoon wore on it was announced that the Carnival Queen would be chosen at the Club Plouse. A bevy of lovely girls hied by the distinguished judges and hfteen of P)elmont’s hnest were picked, one of whom would be Queen. ' Hie judges had no easy task choosing the win- ner but after a .short imjiatient wait by the sjiectators, ‘‘Windy ' ' an- nounced Nancy Clark as the choice of the judges. From then on the Queen of the Carnival was lost in a sea of congratulations and Hash At six o ' clock everyone left in order that the hall might be cleaned and decorated for the dance in the evening at which a beautiful silver cup was presented to the Queen. The day was drawing to a close by the silvery tones of Marvin P urgess and his orchestra. eouT nine o’clock Saturday morning, January tenth, the Arlmont Country Club was the scene of 1 ustling activity. bulbs.

' { Coach Newell surrounded Captain Cas- kie with boys from the Sophomore team and the “J. .’s”, but unfortunately, hard- running Fred Sharkey broke his leg in an early accident. Belmont opened the season hy defeating Mayn- ard 7-0. The score came when Bob Caskie went across from the fifteen yard line. Against a great undefeated WAymouth team, Belmont looked strong despite the score. Framingham was taken into camp by Belmont 13-0. Caskie and Ffoople scoring. Belmont then lost to Fitchburg and Brookline. The latter pushed across two quick touchdowns and then the play was even for three quarters. Winchester, however, defeated Bel- mont in the next game. Belmont concluded the season by losing to an underdog M ' atertown eleven in its traditional Thanksgiving Day clash. (‘‘I ut wait till next year” — Editor.) [ 24 ] oaasTL Earn m against ncle” Mel M ' enner’s hooters didn’t ex- actly set the world on fire with one victory (Dean Academy) and two ties seven losses on the other side of the ledger. In spite of its poor record, the team showed plenty of fight, as is traditionally sig- nificant of B. H. S. in all fields of endeavor. There was real talent on the Belmont scpiad in the form of four stalwarts: Captain Klafstad. ‘ Alanny” Silva, Jimmy Devlin, and Guy Jackson ; but a lack of super supporting material prevented the team from catapulting to any great heights. Three of our men landed berths on the all star team; Klafstad on the first team, and Silva and Devlin on the second. All of the boys put a great deal into their game and doubtless derived much in the way of instruction and good, health- ful enjoyment from it.

In the out- field “Johnny” Thurston and Paul Durnan saw plenty of service a year ago. Bill Dewire, Joe Sullivan, and Laurie Fahey are battling for the other outfield spot, with Dewire having a slight edge. In the infield “Tiny” DiGiovanni returns at second base, as the only regular hack. Steve Colanotto, playing third base, will he the infield captain, although only a junior. Guy Loonier and Joe Smith, battling for shortstoji, are about on a par. At first base “Tuba” McBribe and Bill Toomey are the contenders, with the position going to the one doing the hitting. “Red” Day- ton heads the catching staff. Don Buhner and Bill Martin are shaded by “The Redhead’s” timely hitting. [ 28 ] a Earn i ' 7 ' HE TRACK TEAM has been doing- very well y this season with a few outstanding boys such as Guy Jackson, John Hosnier, George Brown, Bob Xiigent, Captain Alton Cole and Jack Mead. Many hoys also participated who did not have quite so much ability but plenty of determination to succeed. The team won the first three dual meets against Lynn Classical, MMtertown and i Ie- chanic Arts, a fact which makes them well on the way towards competition in the Massachusetts State Meet, as well as the Annual State Relay Carnival which instead of being held at Fitch- burg this year will he held at Belmont. Late Bulletin ; Coach W ' enner ' s boys cleaned up. For the seventh successive season Belmont High Relay teams have come out on top in the Class C competition.

The season was highlighted bv the close com])etition of Captain Jackson and Donahue in a highscoring duel which ended in a deadlock. The most enheartening ictory came when the gallant Belmont hoopsters nosed out the Class A State Champions, Rindge Tech, 23 to 21. Be- cause of their fine showing against higher class schools, the Belmont s(|uad was invited to partici|)ate in the annual Tech Tourney, hut they lost their first game to the uncon(|uerahle ‘‘Pikers” from Xewburyport. The squad consisted of John Murphy, James Donahue, Guy Jackson, Sam Polcari, Boh Caskie, Ted Hoople, James Foust, Lawrence Fahey, Bill Hughes, Jack Cliflford, and “Mike” Palm. [30] am HIS YEAR Belmont’s pucksters made a rather auspicious start by losing a hard fought game to powerful B. C. High 3 to 2 . However, hopes waned as they lost three straight : to Cambridge Latin 2 to o, to Rindge 5 to I, ami to Watertown 4 to o. The Stoneham game ]iroved to he the beginning of a new era for Belmont; for, in this game, B. H. S. flashed a revitalized team due in no small ] art to the acquisition of Ray Mclnnes from Waltham. The boys lost I to o in the third period only after a nip and tuck battle. Lexington fell to Coach “Polly” Harris’s men by the score of 4 to 3 with “Chuck” Levis sinking the clincher in the last seconds. The Red and Blue reached its apex in the Medford thriller by winning a 2 to i upset, “Chuck” Levis again laying in the game winning point. Then followed a 3 to I defeat by Arlington and a 3 to o loss to Newton. Melrose found the Harris brigade a tough nut to crack, winning by a 2 to i score. Coach Lewi.s Harres Captain James Devein Manager Carleton Day [ 31 ] Earn Coach WiLBL ' R StORER Manager Peter Marciano i HIS year’s wrestling team under Coach I Wilbur Storer, won only one match out of ten against such opponents as Ouincy Xeedham, Weymouth. Perkins, and llrowne and Nichols. Their .sole victory was a close-fonght, 23-20, conte.st with Roxhiiry Latin. Joe Porghetti ( 133 ) held toj) team honors with 7 wins and 2 defeats ; he was followed closely by I’ete Bedig (103) with a 6 and 3 record and 1 18 pounder, Gny Arno, who won 5 out of 8 of his matches. Other members of the first team were, in order of their acconijilishment. Louis l)i Luzio, Armando Boschetti, Rocco I)i Giovanni, Mario Boschetti. Nat Manfredi, Paul McCormick, and Fred Rodd. With 6 of these hoys back next year, besides many liard- working members of the second team, Belmont’s outlook can hardly be called liad : and. in fact, there shows jiromise of a very good team. [32] EiiiND the superl) leaderslii}) of Captain I ' heresa Smith, this year’s Red and Bine Field Hockey Team bore the colors of B. H. S. among ' its annual rivals. The team’s schedule include games with such dangerous opponents as Lexington, Stoneham, Concord, Swam]iscott, Arlington, dnchester and WTter- town. The concencus of opinion is that the best played game of the season was played against Winchester. Alth(uigh it was a scoreless contest. Belmont came out with a moral victory, for dn- chester is one of the top ranking ' teams in the state. This was an upset of which to be proud. Belmont fielded a strong- team including; Capt. Snr ' th, reliable goalie; Thelma Conroy and Jane Sa ' age, a great pair of fullbacks; Anne Millan, hard playing wing: inners Joanne Carrol and Jane Drisko; and halfback Ducky ITyant.

LA VIE SOCIALE Scenes from SADIE HAWKINS DAY Revival held in honor of President “Windy” Hayes at his Inaugural Ball. HAYES’ INAUGURAL BALL The show EXTRAVAGANZA with “Revies Of Beauties” pouring out of cornucopias, the show of intimate musical comedy strung on exception- ally comic stories of Belmont Seniors in 1942, the show of a thousand glittering intervals, of Jimmie Mine’s hilarating, airy acrobatic dancing accompanied by the lambent looks of Bonnie Sanderson, the show with the lyric legs of Bonnie shrouded with a gorgeous toga, the greatest national event ever held to welcome an incoming president, the show held in honor of “Windy” Hayes at the spacious quarters of the new Windy Mansion w ' ent over with an unprecedented degree of success ; an- other heartwarming example of a suc- cessful first for Windy. Comic honors of the event went to slick-tongued Dick Daniels, double talker extraordinary, who spreads utter confusion whenever he opens his mouth. One of the high- lights of the evening was the entrance of “Windy” dressed in“ Sadie Hawkins” clothes, a quaint revival from those old High School Days of Windy which he will never forget ; also the man of the hour went around kissing his ardent women admirers and provoked much excitement by so doing. This event, if it is any indication at all of future things, marks a new era in U. S. His- tory and tradition, as well as Presiden- tial Administration.

Said Cleve- land to an enterprising interviewer • “That my novel has been received with such acclaim by the more proletarian aspects of American society, is to me a surprise ; the book is entirely of an eso- teric nature, intending to portray the sentimentality of the Belmont bour- geoisie.” Professor Philip Dorman, Ph.

Music The sedate Pelmcjiit Philharmonic Jazz met competition — and did not like it. The upstart who provided the com- petition last week was a smooth little gentleman, a U. S. composer-conductor, Leo Heffron, who, well advanced in the art of Tazz Harmony, led his 48 musi- cians through their first concert of the season and was so well received that it now looks as though there will be a Jazz war impending. Meanwhile, Robert Wight, president of the Helmont Phil- harmonic Jazzing Jivers, is trying to re- duce casualties among some of the best jitterbuggers in the country, not to men- tion thousands not so proficient in the art, by limiting jumps during dances to not more than live feet. It seems that the hep-cats are suffering from occupa- tional hazards as long as comj)etition forces them to scrape the ceiling during their acts. Thomas Regan just turned the records industry on its ears by in- venting a phonograph record that has three sides to it so that you can play three records off ' the same disc.

The Theatre, Legitimate, and . . . Till-; Three Weird Sisters The show majestic!!! Startin j its fourth year at the Shubert is Gloria Lawrensoii’s opera “Xuit ’a Chelsea.” for which INliss Lawrenson did the en- tire libretto, musical scores, costumes, and settinfjs. The opera spots the color- ature cacklings of Miss Ruth Stevens and Miss Hetty W ' eichel. who alternate in the leading role from night to night. Production expenses are kej)t at a low level by the orchestra, which is com- posed of a sole member. Sally-June I ' orbes, who plays piano, clarinet, string bass, and warbles with the chorus in the tough spots. Gnfortunately. the show will have to break up next week, since Miss Stevens and Miss Weichel are de- serting music for the legitimate stage. They will be seen first with Miss Sally Campbell as the three weird sisters in Macbeth. Starting a limited engagement at the Plymouth Monday evening, at no ad- vance in prices, is “Bahama Passage,” the ideal vehicle for the gal with the form divine, Lorraine Goldie. Newest experiment in surrealism is the streamlined version of “Romeo and Juliet. Juliet, smoking a cigarette on her balcony, hair slung over one eye. is acted by Joan Dacey.

Experts in the line say that Miss MacCutcheon is a natural for the part. XF.W SHOW ' AT STRAXD A COMPLETE SUCCESS Last night Belmont saw one of its best musicomedies in years. Belmontians smacked their lips over a pleasant, tune- ful and amusing comedy “The Seniors.” The show starts ofif with a gibberishly exciting and unusually introduced plot. The show leaves off with a boy and girl singing dreamily of future happiness. As soon as the curtain sneaks down Dick Doyle noisily protests against the show’s happy ending, and insists on knowing what happens after the boy and the girl are married. Thereupon, a proscenium mike, operated by Arnold Cooke, re- presenting the voice of the theater, agrees, and after a bit of bickering, the management proceeds to throw Mr. 1 )oyle out. Dorothy h ' ass and iola MacDougal, successful models of French clothes, say they admire French techni(]ue . . . Radio The latest subtraction from Holly- wood, that serious-minded, galante, John McCormick, who was refused another contract for over-acting his love-making scenes, will be curreuitly starred in a road tour, entitled “A Woman’s Home Com- panion.” Zazu Pitts has been steadily losing popularity since the blurting campaign of publicity by Pauline Hill for her young protegee, Miss Verna Hickie.

[91] Educat ion in its Many Forms According to an old proverbial wit- ticism. eavesdroppers never hear any- thing good about themselves, and this case re])orted by ( we don’t dare reveal the person’s name), is definitely no exception. The story as we received it proceeds as follows; I’eggv ' inadvantage- ously (nerheard Prof. John Stanton, Professor of Anatomy at L’Amour In- stitute of P razil, talking to his under- study. Ruth Stevenson about his work. The conversation went something like the following: “A woman’s physical charms are her chief weapons in the battle of love.” “Well, one thing’s sure,” came the complacent rej)!} ' . ‘‘Peggy will never be arrested for carrying concealed weapons.” Joe Calabro, one of the world’s lead- ing Zoologists, after many studies with monkeys, propounded a theory that shocked and amazed the world. His thetjry states ; Give a monkey long enough time on the typewriter and he’ll type out all of .Shakespeare’s plays in- cluding Othello, the Moore of Venice, and Julius Caesar. Now all he has to do is wait, (iod save the monk! Haig Khederian. of (ieneral Motors assembly plant, just reported to his su- ] erior that he had accurately counted the number of bolts it takes to hold an automobile together, and that the total was 5,087. To this his superior, Roger Hunnewell replied: “Yes. but it takes only one nut to strew it all over the landscape.” Margie King, when stalled in her car on Pleasant street, replied to the officer when he said: C.se your noodle, lady, use your lUKKlle,” “Well, where is it, officer, 1 pushed and pulled everything.” Since the collective deaths of all the members of the Belmont Bridge Players Association, it has become necessary to elect new committee members. They range as follows: Martha (Ah, sho fair) Shea, Chairman; Florence Cal- abro. Trick-card artist; Allison Cum- mings. a drawer ; Augustina DiXatale. a peinture du visage artist ; Mary Gara- fano, Rita Garvey, Sidney Getchell, Mary Griffin, owner of the ‘Perfect Powda Cleansa’ Corporation, dola Johnson, Marion MacCormack, and (rrace Papazian, all illustrious and no- torious bridge-players in this community. P arbara Carter says to Phyllis Chad- wick : “Men are all alike, aren’t they?” To which Miss Chadwick smartly re- plied: “Men are all I like, too.” Said Miss Burns to her fiance, “You would make a very good fireman, pal.” “Why?” asked the lover. “Oh.” re- torted Betty, “because your eyes are al- ways on the hose.” Miss Horothy Barbuto asked Miss Az- zone, “Why is it that women are never elected President of the United States?” Replied Miss Azzone, “Shh, didn’t you know that the President has to be 35?” Our snooping reporter of this most elegant ( ??) journal overheard Miss Marion Mentz saying to Florence Cald- well. “Now I hear that you pride your- self on your being able to judge a woman by the clothes she wears. Tell me, what is your opinion of that Bel- mont High School Girl over there?” “Insufficient evidence!!!” was the curt answer. Successors to the Burns and Allen program. John and Ann Birmingham, opened their new program with “Johnny, do you like talkative women, or the other kind?” “What other kind?” was the only answer. [92J Education in its Many Forms Conversation is probably the most in- teresting and pleasant way of passing the time away, es{)ecially if it is with the right person, as this conversation defi- nitely was. Mary Zoe Gorman, at a sit-in, was heard to have said in answer to: “Women are rivals when it comes to clothes.” “Yeah, they all try to out- strip each other.” Every copy of Virginia Woolfall’s latest novel, ‘Tm a Sexagenarian,” had to be recalled when the United States Woman League Committee consisting of Afary Conley, Julia Connelly, Dorothy Dow, and Alarion Colarusso, banned the hook as immoral and too revealing. The. Committee got no further in the reading of the book than the first sentence: When a girl is sixteen, she’s good look- ing. When she’s twenty-five, she has wrinkles. When she’s thirty, she has gray hair, and when she’s thirty-five, she turns blonde and starts all over again.” Eavesdropping proves interesting sometimes, particularly in this case. ATaria Badessa said: “They tell me you married your husband because his aunt left him a fortune.” To which Rita Dupont replied: “That isn’t true. Ed have married him no matter who left it to him.” Directly in line with her duty is the maxim propounded by The U. S. Edu- cator, Betty Cook, stating : The first lie detector was made out of the rib of a man. No improvement has been made on the original machine. Aliss Betty Reasoner, who was en- tering Belmont on her horse, could not cross the line as her horse balked, due to Union regulations. She was forced to travel the rest of the way in William Aherne’s taxi. ‘‘OINK, OINK Mr. Robert Brennan, a young brilliant college student, desires a permanent position.
