LAST WILL AN D TESTAMENT We, the class of one thousand nine hundred and thirty six, about to complete our life as a stud- ent high school group, do hereby pause long enough to will and bequeath all of those perishable privi- leges and moral qualities with which Fate has en- dowed us, unto the following groups and individ- uals, in the sincere belief that the heirs will benefit as much thereby as we, the testators. The class, hereby, appoints the students of 37 as executors of this will. Those heirs not faithfully and willingly cooperating shall be afflict- ed with the punishment chosen by the testators of this will. Thus, for the disobeying, may they be made to go to typing room 30, sit in the wastebasket and take the French Test ffourteen or more pagesl, given by Miss Griffey to her second year classes, re- maining there until completing it and having filled all blanks. Proudly we leave our newly and beautifully painted school building to the remaining classes, hoping that they will preserve and try to take care of it as we have during the past year. With sincerest wishes to the class of 37 , we bequeath the hope that they may be lucky enough to be able to possess as outstanding a senior quar- tet and senior orchestra as we have. INDIVIDUALLY: Edgar Wood leaves his ability to impersonate aln Englishman to the apt and proven Norman Mor- rison. William Stevens hopes that John Munson will continue to be a well-behaved and dignified student. William still wishes to keep his ability and 'talent in playing the violin, feeling sure john will be able to use all spare time in developing his oratorical ability. Ray Scott solemnly requests that Eugene Shear- er take his place next year and lead the group singing in chapel, doing his best to drown all off- chords seemingly coming from the underclassmen. CWe wonderll Unwillingly, J. B. Kline bestows the role of local Rip Van Winkle to Billy Driscoll, requesting that he manage to sleep in at least one study hall period weekly. So the fair sex may have a handsome inspira- tion in the year 37 , Robert Daberko asks jack Rush to step into his place this coming term. What a pity if the class of 37 should not pos- sess a talkative and sociable member. Carolyn Ridgway thereby asks Mary Louise jordan to be this for her class and use as her motto Good to the Last Word. No longer can Sara Husband tickle the key-f board of the piano in the C. H.. S. auditorium and so she hands over her position to Ibby Humphrey. In order to keep gloom from the school next year, our class secretary, Dorothy Peterson, asks Virginia Davidson to give willingly and cheerfully her sweet smile to all downhearted classmates. Almost last, and we're afraid least, Cin staturel, Photy Perrus must ask that Ally Luczak continue with the fighting spirit in the basketball squad of next year. Surely the class of 'if-17 could not progress in its schedule for next year without the issuance of our bi-monthly newspaper. In order that the news columns may be taken care of, Charles Daniels re- quests that Tom Beeman take over his job as one of the newsgatherers for the Coker. Bobby Toth requests that his position as half- back on the football squad be left open for Frank Hepler. Fred Funari, having had willed to him his red locks from the class of 35 , feels that he should pass them on to a member of the class of 37 and so he has chosen Alden Armstrong as his successor. The following Seniors have been persuaded to will these choise possessions: Vicky Luczak, her favorite brand of chewing gum to Dorothy Trout. Bill Moorman, his height to Robert Murphy. Domer Newill, his executive ability to Tom De Huff. Helen Henry, her basketball prowess to Anna Mary Evans. Jane Smith, her talkativeness to Mary Colburn. James Shartzer, his blond curls and voice to Frank Hepler. Thomas Bannon, his ability to manage to Eu- gene Kenton. Martha Duggan, her attractive appearance to Edith Mitchell. - Helen Dawson, her indifference to Dorothy Weihe. Dorothy Welker, her passion for knitting to Agnes Leeder. Walter Stewart, his ability to tap-dance to Harry Reagan. Finally, with hearts full, we the Senior Class, do will and bequeath unto our advisers and thc teachers our lifelong friendship. - Witnessed in 'the presence of freemen on this, our last day of school in the year one thousand nine hundred and thirty-six, in anno domini. Signed. The Class of 36

HALEY, HALEY, Since this is LEAPLINE year, a HERD of girls started to ROHM through the GREENWOOD near DAWSON in search of a HUSBAND. While following the LEEDER, they fished for I-IERRINGTON and WIL- TROUT in the BROOKS using MILLERS as their BATES. They also listened to the ROBBINS and the MARTINS sing FASOLA. The woods made them think of ROBINSON CARUSO. The LIGHT from the MORNINGSTAR shone on the FOSBRINK, and While CROSS- ing the RIDGWAY a GOLDSTONE was found. This did not seem to bring them any good luck, because soon they became all MIXEYed up and cou1dn't see any of the MEADDOWS. While WANDELing a- round they stumbled over the ROUTZAHN the large trees and one girl was STANGE by a bumblebee. Finally a HAYES settled over the WOOD, and they were inKLINEd to believe that they were lost. After being lost a SOLIDAY, they got a ride in a RUSTy STILLWAGON pulled by an OTTO which LERCHed back and forth. MOORE trouble developed when they lost DE BOLT from a wheel and the WAGNER told them they would have to walk. About this time it was found that one of the party was missing, but to the girls' great delight, she was the biggest flirt of the crowd and usually triumphed with the boys. So they trouped into the town, their clothing covered with green and BROWN STAINES and their bodies bedecked with Sweet WILLIAMS. Of course they were hungry, so through GRAFT and ECONOMY, they purchased HAMMAN eggs, GRAHAM crackers with GARLICK and LEIBERGER cheese, and o'- HENRYS. But RANKER PORT wine or BIT- TNER DILL pickles they never had tasted, so a SEFCHECK was given in payment. At last they were FULLEM so they then bought PENN and INKS and one sat down and RITENOUR to her FRIENDS. After CROUSEing around a bit and looking over all the eligible young men, they thought they had better tell someone to go in search of DAHL. And PRESTIAI A posse THE GANGS ALL HERE! was formed. They were told to HUNTER, CALLER or do anything just so they would bring her BECK WITT them. But they were warned not to BOOHER because she was easily frightened. In the meantime, the girls had scatter- ed about the town hunting frantically be- fore the flirt came back. One was SMARTO and became a clerk at a RAMMAGE sale held at SKALECKI HALL, but all she had to do was sell ANSEL. When asked about her work, she said some of the incidents were rather FUNARI and would make one go LUCAS in time. ISOLA can of NARDINES, a box of lemMONGEL- LO and a bottle of PHILLIPS magnesia to the GRIMM looking lady who, when she came in, was looking for a REED set of fumi- ture. One young fellow came in and said, I BANE a HIXSON so I want a pair or red FLANNERY underwear. One thing though, she explained, I don't have a boss be- cause he sleeps all day in the MORRIS chair and keeps muttering, 'I'1l TRUMP it' as he dreams of last night's card game. On the MORROW, the missing one was found with a GALLATIN young man CHAN- NING a love song to her. The detective WATSON said, Well, MCCOY little girl, you had us all rather worried, but you seem to be in good hands. And so they were led back to town. It was soon made known that they had come back and the girl started relating some of her experiences. And great SCOTT, MERANDA, when I METCALF and saw that COWGILL I CULPed, bit imy CHAPLIK, and started to repeat the TESTA- ment LOUDERBACKwards than from the beginning. l'd COLL that a GOODWIN, she lispingly answered, but if you had had FORSYTHE enough to think that it couldn't GORE you, you would have felt better. By this time most of the girls had gath- ered around so the triumphant young lady took her chance to say, Well what's the CONDIFF, I got my man didn't I? But a hoarse whisper was heard, Humph, poor boy, just another DANIELS come to judg- ment.

We're not going to tell you who these bright boys and girls are: you'll have to guess for yourself, and if you can recognize that arm around E. C.'s neck, please tell him. In the upper right-hand corner we have C. H. S. in action. Whoops, my dear! And who wouldn't yell for those three handsome musketeers! Who says that three's a crowd! Or that girls aren't beautiful in shorts! Not we of Connells- ville High School! SN APS
