wind section. Toscanini says he just couldn't do with- out them! Buzz's attention was next caught by an article under Press, concerning the eastern situation. 'There have been no new developments on the Tibetian-Mongolian front,' reports Time .Todays ace correspondent, jacque- line Deeb, who is stationed there. Mr. Richard Howald, the well-known editor of our Shanghai division, has transmitted this vital news to America. The Radio section came next. In this field also the Class of '41 had made its mark. Patty Clark and Connie Stolz, those two charming belles, have been giving lectures on the highly specialized arts of win- ning a man and winning a sailboat race. Their radio audience is said to be tremendous. Last month N.B.C. initiated .a new program, starring an unknown barber- shop quartet. The response to the four stars has been terrific and the public demands to know about them. The two boys, jack Dutmer and Clarence Webb, are proving their excellent athletic training at the hands of Coach Waterman by the strength of their lungs, while the two girl members, B.arbara Wickman and Gerry Bignall, attribute their success to the sure-fire formula of lots of sleep and three bowls of saurkraut daily. Buzz, thoroughly flabbergasted by this time at the unprecedented success of his classmates, turned to Science. There he beheld the names of five more mem- bers of the Class of '4l. Psychiatrists jim Dewar and jerry Mulder were running a progressive ins.ane asylum in which the inmates keep the doctors and nurses locked up. Drs. Dewar and Mulder explain their humanitarian theory thus: It's easier this way. The brilliant physicists, john McReynolds and john Moore, in collaboration with that distinguished scien- tist, jane Farrant, have published an article in the Mediral journal explaining their latest discovery. For reasons unknown to her co-workers, Miss Farran insisted on calling the story of their great achievei 'How I Finally Got My Revenge, or Biology il Easy Lerfonr' Boy, I sure wish I'd known about that last y said Buzz wistfully, as he turned to the Sports dc ment. Immediately, a headline caught his eye. U States Women's Olympic Team breaks all exi records. Former Michigan girls carry 0E all hon Perusing further, Buzz found to his astonishment the girls had all come from East High. Betty Apoll the Blond Venus, had walked off with al swimming honors, Betty june Thompson becami champion javelin thrower of the world by her nificent and unsurpassed feat of slinging a javelin : miles, jean Brackett .and Mary Jean Bechtold, rapid relay runners, carried off all the firsts in field. The column concluded, The accomplishmer this team have all America talking. Golly, said Susie, what a class old '41 has tn. out to be, in spite of all that our teachers used t about us. I donlt belong with such famous peo Yeah,,' added Buzz. All the time I was a ser never realized what a talented bunch of kids I going around with. Let's go back to 1941, said Susie. Theres not more to do around here. We know just how everyt is going to happenf, Good idea, agreed Buzz, adjusting his earph Pretty soon there was a whirring noise, and Buzz Susie were sitting on the front steps of East C Rapids High School, blinking up at the flagpole trying to decide whether it was all a dream or wh their classmates were really fated to go on to new greater triumphs.
