Four years ago we had our start And thru the Orient we wish to state in part The joys and experiences we have had— Farewell dear friends—we must depart. GRATITUDE As I stood on the edge of the nest, wings poised, Ready for flight; a feeling of half-regret compelled me To take one last look at the shelter I was leaving behind. I said: O foster-parent! I could never repay you for all you have done for me. You went out at early morn to bring me luscious worms to nourish me. You fed me these when I had scarce sense enough to open my mouth to receive them. You taught me to use my wings in flight, and to strengthen my body to withstand the strain of flying. You took many practice flights with me, and showed me where to find cool waters and fragrant flowers. You taught me to smooth and preen my feathers. You taught me to sing your sweetest songs. And now I must leave you, for God decrees it; and you taught me to follow His impulse. I must go out to find my own food—fight my own enemies—love my own friends. My student days arc over, but not so my studying days. Farewell, my alma mater; I must fly alone. I am off to feel the lazy warmth of the spring sunshine on my face—-or the patter of spring rain on my back: To breast the stinging wind and the biting storm: To face the future with courage singing in my heart.” So saying, I spread my wings And flew toward the speckled dawn. Three By Jane Mankowski.

Finis THE TASK Was ever a stranger message sent? You write a poem for the Orient.” It fills your heart with a sense of dread And dizzy pains shoot through your head, You hem and haw and sit in doubt. You stammer and stutter ’til you want to shout To deuce with the poetry, writings and such I’m so rattled now I think I’m in Dutch.” But you come out of that just a little saner And the next few lines arc a little plainer; Quickly the thoughts begin to flow Now, to finish this line. I’ll make it go.” That sounds good—Yeah! Not so bad. And there’s ever so many more to add. Perhaps this is boring and not worth your time But it’s awfully hard to make words rhyme. Something must happen to end this stuff, I imagine you all have had enough. Now always remember this country is free That’s why poems are made by fools like me. Virginia McGuire.

General Course Syracuse University T hirty-two 1931 rue o%ie?iT 1931 CLASS PROPHECY Graduation over, I decided to mend my shattered nerves, and incidentally shatter a few records, by climbing to the top of Mount Everest. At the end of three days, when I stooped over the side of a sudden rise in the ground to smell a rare mountain flower which I had discovered there, I lost my footing. I fell for a long time; so long that I became unconscious. When I came to, it was with a feeling that I was being weighed down. My eyes told me that I was swathed in bandages from head to foot, like a mummy. A withered, twisted old hag, who reminded me of the witch of Hansel and Gretel fame, was bending over me, her red eyes staring through me. Overcome with horror at the situation I found myself in, I struggled vainly to rise. No, no,” she said; her voice was harsh, and brought to my mind the creaking of a rusty gate. You must not try to rise, for one arm and leg are broken. You have been unconscious a long, long time, and I have cared for you through it all. I will not harm you now.” Who arc you,” I asked, gathering courage. My strength was fast returning, and my voice no longer sounded as though it came from someone else’s throat. I am the Wise Woman of the Hills,” she said. Where am I, and how long have I been here?” You arc in my grotto, and you have been here ten years.” Ten years!” I cried, getting up on my free elbow. Ten years! Impossible! Why, I am only celebrating my graduation from East Side. Where are all my friends? What will they think of my long absence?” Hush, do not get excited. I can ease you on that. Am I not the Wise Woman of the Hills? You have been long forgotten, in that land beyond the hills. But your friends—ah, I can sec every one of them. Do not interrupt my train of thought, and I will tell you all, while the spirit moves me.” She had closed her eyes, and her voice, which had a wild, weird fascination for me, had subsided into a monotonous drone. Let me see. The Daukshas Twins are setting Broadway on fire as one of the most famous Sister Teams since the Dolly Sisters. Catherine Schilling, who is on the front page almost every day with her escapades, divorced her tenth husband last week, and has left Peggy Joyce far behind in the race. Henry Haas has opened up a flower shop in which he employs only blonde girls. The bank, of which Emil Pabst is president, was held up yesterday. It happened that Emil was making his monthly visit to the bank to collect his salary when three thugs, headed by Sam Haber, notorious gang leader, walked up with a machine gun. With remarkable presence of mind for a bank presi- dent, Emil saved the day by knocking them all out, hitting them with rubber checks. When questioned, Haber stated that they had been hired by Amelia Brcitchadcl to filch the bank’s capital and ruin its president. Upon investigating, Detective Arthur Mur- phy discovered that Amelia wanted to even up a score which had been contracted at the time when Emil was senior class president, and she vice-president. Charles Loew recently opened up a new night club in the village. This club has the unique distinc- tion of lasting three months to date. His five other hot spots had been padlocked between a week and two months after they had opened. This latest has attracted the cream of New York night life. Mildred Outcalt is hailed as the first woman Rabbi T hirty-threc 1931 THe 0%ie?iT 1931 in the United States. John Walker is causing New Yorkers to gasp at his fancy step- ping. He is even being compared favorably by some critics to Billy Robinson. Doro- thy Howarth has married a red-headed man, and has five children, all with red hair. William Serretclli is still attending Notre Dame, and causing the female population of the country no end of heart throbs. He is quoted as saying, 'This handsome hero business is not all it’s cracked up to be. If I could find the right girl— Irwin Asher has published a book dealing with insects—Do Worms Reason? In this book, he discusses the subject at length, and finally admits he doesn’t know. Florence Kaeli has bought 3,000 acres of land in Brazil, which she proposes to give over to the manu- facture of chewing gum. She claims that she could never buy enough since the days when she collected dues for the senior class. Julia Relies recently appeared in a techni- color television broadcast of 'Dracula’ as Dracula. Her performance has been lauded in four continents. Charles Goble is sponsoring a movement to educate boys in the fine art of being a bachelor. A club is provided and the boys are taught to cook, sew, and perform all the other little tasks which arc so necessary to single blessedness. He hopes thus to increase the size and calibre of the world’s bachelor population. Gertrude Scholtz and Lillian Fcreday are rival missionaries for the education of the poor heathen Amazons—rivals because they do not agree on what a well-dressed Amazon wears to sleep. Gertrude is campaigning to have them adopt flannel nightgowns, while Lillian thinks that pongee overalls are more chic. A hard and bitter battle has been waged, which is doomed to end soon, as both arc returning to the states to head a nation-wide Anti-Bachelor movement which will probably start by burning down the clubhouse, and end when one of the young ladies succeeds in tying a sailor’s knot around the bachelor leader. Lucy Doser won first prize in an international flower show for a hybrid she produced which consisted of flowers which opened up as morning glories in the morning and became five-o’clock-tca roses in the afternoon. Virginia McGuire has worked up a patronage of the world’s most ancient young women in her h ir- dyeing business. She got her start in Mr. Main’s room in East Side where she experi- mented with her own hair, often being embarrassed by having to appear in public with streaks of red, green and lavender in her hair where the paint would not rub off. Nicholas La Scala nightly croons over radio station. A-G-O-N-Y to his adoring public. He has taken over Rudy Vallee’s old place, the Villa Vallec, and is making a great success of it since he employed Gussic Friedman and Victoria Galines as hostesses. Ger- trude Pfrommer, a cigarette girl, is said to have caught Ziegfield’s eye. Frances Mos- kowitz and Domice Molis arc rival candidates for the presidency of the W. C. T. U. Walter Skopak is sweeping the country as head of the U. S. Street Cleaners Union. Charles Doningcr received a raise from his City Editor, Harlin Brelsford, for the fine account he wrote up of the heavyweight championship bout between Dave Smukler and Joseph Eustachcwich. It was a draw, and these two worthies will have to fight again. In his article, Charles described Joseph’s rise from an unappreciated dancing instructor for Arthur Murray to a contender for the heavyweight crown. Josephine Sygnarski has won a bathing beauty contest in Iceland, and earned the title 'Miss Ice- berg.’ Marion Rubino is drifting around the world for a mysterious purpose which she will not divulge to anyone. However it is noticed that wherever she goes, she T hirty-four 1931 TH€ O'Kie T 1931 always keeps her eye on the door, as if looking for someone to enter. Rumor has it that she is seeking her childhood sweetheart, one Elmer Horton, but who can say? Ruth Habig has gone domestic in a big way, and may be found most any day right at home, attending to the butcher, the baker, etc., to whom she is known as Mrs. Quinn. Hazel Schneider is opening a shop in which she intends to sell all the little curios and what-nots which she collected from her various boy-friends since her junior year in high school. James Gallagher is punching cattle in the Lone Star State; nobody seems to know why, but they say there’s a woman in it. Dorothy Maitland, Alma Morris, and Laura Mancini have joined together to establish a home for aged humor- ists. It seems that nobody has any sympathy for these decayed gag-men, so these three ladies have taken upon themselves the care of them and call it charity. Anna Cuidera has built herself a pavilion overlooking the sea, and lives there alone with her thoughts and her cat. Esther Mulvcy is teaching a class on the fine art of riding a pony without a saddle, bridle, or horse. Daisy Mulford is singing in Grand Opera. Leonard Pydesky is soaring to new heights in a new rocket-plane of his own invention. Nicholas Maggio is a lion trainer. It is said that the power of his scowl is such that even the most ferocious beast is subdued. Minnie Weinberg occupies a very high posi- tion in the government observatory tower. Henry Wujciak owns and operates the most extensive coal mine in the United States. Since the coal supply in England has been exhausted, Henry is reaping great profits by carrying coals to Newcastle. Ru- dolph La Pica is bringing a lot of things to light in Egyptian history. He is credited with having dug up 38 mummies and half as many poppies. Henry Mark has dis- covered a truth-telling scrum which he intends to give into the hands of every lawful organization which has a use for it excepting the scholastic. No school teachers need apply. His own experience, he says, has been too painful. Incidentally, Henry is Ghost-writer for Ripley, who is now too feeble to push a pen. He, too, got his start in East Side—’Believe it or not, teacher, I studied.’ Eleanor Weinberger is in France studying the customs and manners of the French people of the time of Louis IV. She is not doing this to write up, or for pleasure, but because she lost a bet on the last election. A great lover of sports and calisthenics is Margaret Perry. She teaches morning exercises and basketball (boys’ and girls’ rules) by radio, baseball by tele- vision, tree-climbing by news-reels, and ice-skating by telephone. Sylvia Kluger is in China, trying to get the government of China to recognize women as human beings. Her campaign is said to be very successful. Carmine Paglio, armed only with his trusty rifle, is in the wilds of Africa searching for the mythical race of Ikwa, the Bird- Men. The Smithsonian Institute has promised him honor, if he succeeds, and a decent burial, if he fails. Eva Barclitfc is a doctor with so many patients that she has had to outfit a private hospital to take care of them all. Rose Hammer has built herself a stronghold in Scandinavia where she secludes herself, refusing to sec anyone—disap- pointed in love is the general belief. Aifter his speech, ’Must Students Study?’ which was broadcast over a world-wide hook-up, John Reilly was voted by all high school and college students as the most intelligent man living. Ray Simmons has become intensely interested in the way in which the Hindus have been managing their new republic, and has run over into India to give Gandhi a few pointers. Anna Weish, T hirty-fivf 1931 THC O'KICHT 1931 the first woman bull fighter in the United States and elsewhere, created quite a sen- sation last week, when she threw the bull over the walls of the stadium. The bull was killed. Jennie Wicka rammed her submarine against an iceberg about two months ago. The iceberg was badly smashed up. Due to careless handling of submarines by people like Jennie, the iceberg is almost totally extinct. Olga Risko and Pauline Schrader hiked from New York to ’Frisco without walking more than 2 miles in all. However, as long as gentlemen continue to prefer them, blondes will hitch-hike. Fred Johnson and Theodore Free were brought before Judge Anthony Caputo and prosecuted by Attorney Louis Cenci; they were accused of knowing the identity and whereabouts of a certain Sylvia.” If found, this lady, who has caused singers so many sore throats, will probably meet a disastrous end. (Who Is Sylvia?) The men were acquitted. Pearl Pcterfreund is in the business of manufacturing glasses for the poor blind moles. Isa- bell West is her able assistant. Ellen Wright made a pic which measured one acre and donated it to Congress. She was awarded the congressional medal of honor. Edmund Pfennig has discovered a sure-fire method of isolating the atom—a way that works every time. When interviewed, Edmund said that he owed his success to the start which Mr. Reeve gave him when he was a senior in High School. Alberta Lucas, who left home five years ago, is a long way from home and broke—so broke that she has taken to writing and singing mammy songs. Her neighbors are planning to start a collection for her and end her misery, as soon as the next train goes out. The enter- prising Octavius Cerefice has gone to Alaska and opened up a barber shop for polar bears in the summer. John Kuchmas is in the Amazon Jungle looking for the missing link. He says he docs not expect to find it, but won’t rest until he is sure. Gactana Menza has written a book which was not much of a success until she arranged with Archie Shapiro to have it banned from and in Boston. Since then, its fame has spread like wild-fire through the country. Charles Mitchell has joined the navy and has two girls in every other port. Josephine Polyhonki and Eugenia Zender were captured by pirates from India and made dancing girls in their temples. Uncle Sam’s navy soon rescued them; now each is writing a book on her adventures, but both accounts differ in so many respects that the dear public is not taking them very seriously.” Let me see, did I leave anyone out?” I came to earth to find myself still trussed up, and the old woman staring at me out of wild bloodshot eyes. No,” I hastened to reassure her. It was wonderful of you to tell me of this. It will seem so strange to go back to them now. Everything will be so strange and new. It seemed like yesterday—” You are—going back?” Of course,” I sank into a reverie which was broken by a sharp knock on the door. Without waiting for an invitation to enter, two young men came in, one of whom vaguely reminded me of Vito Kayrukstis. Ah,” said Vito to the old woman, here you are. We have been looking for you a long time, old woman of the hills; haven’t wc, Ben?” Thirty-six 1931 TH O ICTiT 1931 tiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiitiitaaiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitiaiiitittaaaaiiiaitiiitittiaiiiiiiiiaiaiiaaiiiiiiiaaiiiiiiiiiaii Ben nodded. There arc some folk on the other side of the mountain that want to see you. They are in trouble and they want you to help them out.” The old woman seemed to meditate a minute, and then she said, with a sigh, All right, I go. But who will take care of her?” pointing to me. They saw me for the first time. Holy smoke!” Ben said. Say, it’s a good thing for you she didn’t decide she was one of Macbeth’s witches and boil you alive. She’s been known to do that. Are you hurt? The old sinner certainly did a good job of winding you up. You look like a corpse that’s all laid out.” He had started unwinding some of the bandages. What did you say—broken arm—broken leg? Why, she didn’t even wrap up your arm or leg. Boy, that’s a good one!” Ben stood there laughing, while it slowly dawned on me that something was radically wrong. My arm or leg is not broken?” I said. Suddenly I sat up. Tell me, is this 1941?” 1941? 1931! Listen, sister, I think we’d better take you along too. You’re just as batty as the old lady. She runs away from the sanatarium every once in a while, and then she’s hard to find. I think I’d better put you in a straight jacket or some- thing. What do you say?” I—I don’t know,” was my weak response. By Jane Mankowski.

In 1927 Billy went out for football and placed on the second team, for he ended the season as a substitute. There is a saying that you cannot keep a good man down. Subsequently in 1928 he earned his first letter in baseball, and then it was easy going. First team letters came in as fast as Billy could collect them. Football ’28, Baseball ’29, Football ’29 and ’30. He also played interclass Basketball ’29 and ’30. Five letters in all. Count ’em! Billy was elected captain of the baseball team and earned his sixth letter. CHARLES DONINGER With the graduation of Charlie there will be a berth open on the gym team. Dur- ing his four years he has never failed to earn a letter in this line. He is a specialist on the horizontal bar, capturing first place in two championship meets and took the same place on the rings. In 1927 Charles acted as football manager, earning his first E.” The following year was a busy one as far as Charles was concerned. Letters came in for swimming, track, and gym team activities. Charles duplicated his work nyJ929 and for a third time in 1930. At that Charles found time enough to play intcrclass basket- ball to end a brilliant athletic career at East Side. HENRY HAAS Henry never was dubbed a human fish” but he certainly made the fish blush by his expert swimming and diving. Through his efforts in the aquatic field Henry gath- ered three letters for his splendid showings. In 1931 he was quite a busy man acting as captain, manager and coach of the swimming team. Take a fish out of water and he is lost but not so with Henry. To prove it, he threw the 16-pound shot around for three consecutive years on the teams of ’28, ’29, ’30.

He managed to eke out two letters in '28, and ’29 just to oblige the baseball coach. Henry also placed in inter- class meets of ’28 and '29. SAMUEL HABER When Sam first reported for basketball it seemed ridiculous that such a small boy would even attempt to secure a position on the basketball team. However, Sam out- witted them by clever foot-work and snappy passing. In 1928 Sam served as a substitute, then elevated himself to the ranks of the regulars in ’29. These same years found Sam playing inter-class basketball, holding up the honors of his class. He also played inter-class in ’30 and '31. FRED JOHNSON Fred earned the title of Flash” because of his fast dribbling on the basketball court. Combining the qualities of a good passer and accurate shooter Freddie played regularly on the Varsity, earning two letters. Inter-class basketball took the rest of Freddie’s time. JOHN WALKER John was once small, now he’s tall. He heard Mr. Horwitz’s call and learned to play basketball. John’s 6 ft. and 4 in. served him well enough to win him a letter for his fine basketball work. As center his services were much in demand both for inter-class and Varsity basketball. John placed on the basketball teams of ’29 and ’30. He played an excellent brand of basketball. OCTAVIUS CERETICE Although Octavius never gathered exceptional honors for his efforts, mention of his work should be made. He tried out for the track team in ’29 and ’30, finally making the team in ’31. Octavius also earned a second-team letter for his services on the gridiron in 30. Had Octavius another year at East Side much could be expected from him. WALTER SKOPAK Walter earned his letter on the cinder path. The track teams of ’29, ’30, ’31, had Walter on their rolls. THEODORE FREE ‘ Teddy, as he is best known, earned his letter in ’30. Teddy also earned a second team letter for his hard work on the football team in ’30. Teddy was a hard worker and always willing to obey the commands of his superiors. GIRLS’ ATHLETICS With graduation near, our school will lose some senior girls who have been active in athletics during their stay at East Side. Amelia Brcitschadcl, Florence Kaeli, Victoria Galinis, Rose Hammer, Anna Wcisch and Eva Barcliffe have played during this volley-ball season. Gertrude Scholz, Lillian Fcrcday, Catherine Schilling, played in the 1929 season. Those who took part in the basketball were Amelia Brcitschadcl, Gertrude Scholz, Lillian Fereday, Victoria Galinis, Eleanor Weinberger, Minnie Weinberg, Hazel Schnei- der and Gertrude Pfrommcr. The swimming team consisted of Gertrude Scholz, Amelia Breitschadel, Victoria Galinis. Amelia Breitschadel won a letter and coached the basketball team. Victoria Galinis and Florence Kaeli were in the Inter-class Meet in ’28, ’29. Flor- ence Kaeli won a gold pin.

SENIOR WILL When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to sever the ties that bind, it is also necessary to dispose of the worldly goods we have acquired in the four or more years of our sojourn in such a manner as to stifle forever all dissension on what was left to whom. Therefore, being alleged sane in mind and body, we, the Class of June, 1931, do hereby make, publish and declare this to be our LAST WILL AND TESTA- MENT. Section I. To our Teachers. To Miss Perkins we leave the calm that always follows the tempest. We leave her memories. Also, we authorize the Board of Education to give her one year in which to travel abroad for her health. To Mr. Musgrove: A class capable of giving original 4A orations. A class which will sec the point of a joke with the use of a chaser. To Mr. Reeve: A class which understands the relation between a left-handed monkey wrench and the sodium stannitc solution. To Mr. Miller: A class which will continue to laugh at the fifth repetition of a favorite story. Section II. To Future 4A s. • 1. The privilege of going down up-stairways and traveling between the first and second floors during lunch periods without permits. 2. A secret formula for giving a 4A talk in assembly without any serious after- effects. (Apply to class president.) 3. The nurse’s office, in which to pass the time. Section III. To the Juniors: 1. A set of new knocks with which to reck” the Seniors. Section IV. To the Sophomores: a. Boys: Wear long pants to be distinguished from Freshmen. ' b. Girls: Do not play tag in the halls, like Freshmen. Section V. To the Freshmen: 1. Ladders to help them reach the blackboards, and to assist them in their climb to the lofty platform we are now vacating. 2. Some new excuses to try on Miss Tcasdalc. (We either never had the heart to use them ourselves, or being seniors, did not have to.) 3. Bigger and better lolly-pops. Section VI. To the School in general: 1. The campus, building, and all the old traditions which were handed down to us. 2 A once more calm and tranquil room 106. 3. The new park to cutters. We do hereby appoint Miss Ruth Perkins as sole executor of this will. Witnessed by: Sam Haber, Lawyer.

But why the foe of youth? Can it be that the tubercle bacillus knows just when a youth is enjoying lifer —just when he begins to make plans for the future? Maybe the youth is planning to become a scientist and hoping to make great discoveries. No doubt he is looking for- ward to being married and owning a little cottage. What, then, if life is snuffed out and with it all his plans? To the world it would be just another victim of tuberculosis, since anything the world doesn’t know, it surely will not miss, and it certainly would not know this young man, who, with great ideas in his mind, was unable to keep his body going. Tuberculosis has taken its toll through all the centuries. In the dark ages people did not know what name to give to so deadly a disease. Later people woke up and gave it many names. Through the undying efforts of Pasteur, Laennec, Koch, Tru- deau, and many others, we at least have come to know something of its source, pre- vention, and cure. But science cannot do it all; we must do our part. Youth is said to be something fickle and it must be fickle, to let the tiny germ get the upper hand. Some deaths cannot be averted, but many can. The ways to protect ourselves from tuberculosis are many. Do not come into close contact with a person that has tuberculosis. Get a few hours of fresh air each day. Drink milk that is pasteurized and from tuberculin tested cows. Keep yourself clean, get enough sleep, and do not overwork or strain yourself physically or mentally. If these rules are followed, tuberculosis will have fewer victims. Tuberculosis versus Youth, Who will Win? HOW TO PASS THAT FINAL EXAM Enter the classroom briskly with that Know-it-All look, leisurely take a seat, non- chalantly grab one last glance in your book, shut it with a loud, determined bang and meet the teacher’s eye with a straightforward gaze. When he has finished writing the first question on the board, scribble furiously on your paper as though writing the an- swer. Keep this up until the fellow next to you quits writing. Then put your hand on your forehead as if reading your own answer, while you in reality are reading the answer of the guy next to you. Put down his answer after the teacher writes the next question on the board. Repeat when necessary. Just as you leave the room remark in a loud voice so that the teacher can hear you, Duck soup, eh?” This method never fails. Forty-four 1931 me o%ienr 1931 BITS OF HUMOR (To whom credit is due, credit is hereby given) Old Grad: I was a freshman in this university many years ago. Student: So was I. — Why does the chicken cross the road?” Because the rooster is over there.” (tsk, tsk) What makes you cat your ice cream first and your soup last?” My stomach’s upset, so I cat my food backwards.” World’s Worst: The fellow who thought a cowl light was an illumination on a bovine. (Cow) She: Doctor, vaccinate me some place where it won’t show. Dr.: Open your mouth. She: No, not there, Doctor; I’m an opera singer. Policeman (to Motorist who nearly collided): Don’t you know that you should always give half the road to a woman driver? Motorist: I always do, when I find out which half of the road she wants. First She: Gee! He certainly has hair on his chest! Second Ditto: Who? First: Rin-tin-tin. Student: These high school teachers don’t know a thing! Why, not a one of them could teach and get away with it anywhere else. They’re just dumb—why, they oughta get a whole new teaching staff! Other: Yeh, I flunked too. George Washington—or the god of the Credit Men: He left a farewell address. What! A man?” shouted the old maid as she looked under the bed. Oh, goodie, look at the new radio.” Hush! That’s not a radio, that’s grandpa’s coffin.” Now tell the jury, lady,” instructed the young lawyer, just where the prisoner was milking the cow.” The young lady, a trifle embarrassed, smiled sweetly and replied, Why, I think it was just a little back of the center, sir.” Forty-five 1931 TH6 0%lC?iT 1931 ni...................................................................iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinii.... The college man who sees double is in great demand at the gas company as a meter reader. I call my bathtub “Diamond,” ’cause it’s a setting for the ring. Fond Mother (to crying offspring): Well, does my little sugar plum want a drink? 1931 baby: Don’t mind if I do. What have you got? Sally: What are you going to do with your bathing suit this winter? Polly: Use it for a book mark. “And imagine my finding you here,” said the drain pipe to the top of the ladder. “Yes, I was put up to this.” Mac: How was the geology lecture? Obie: Fine. I was rocked to sleep. At a houseparty an old-fashioned dancer is one who dances. “Why so sad, Arabella?” Oh, I just heard a good recipe for home brew, and I haven’t got a home.” In Sweden it’s different. Over there Necken is an old God instead of being just a social obligation. Two budding boxers entered the ring on the big night at their local club. “I feel sorry for you, old chap,” said one to the other. “You sec I was born with the gloves on.” “That’s quite all right,” replied his opponent. “You’ll soon die the same way.” 1°: Hey, Bill, what time is it? 2°: How’d you know my name was Bill? 1°: Oh, I just guessed it. 2°: Well, guess the time, then! Two-line philosophy: If I’ve got to have trouble, I’d rather have a black cat cross my path than a Mack truck. “What’s the disadvantage of being color-blind?” You can’t see your tooth-brush get pink.” Dr.: Don’t you know that whiskey shortens a man’s life? Mr.: What’s de odds? You see twicet as much at dc same time. Forty-six DANA COLLEGE A Co-Educational College of Liberal Arts Richard D. Currier, President Madison C.
