me Magee Nlfflf All other class members. Desks, seats, books, etc., loaned by citizens of St. Paul. Act l: The Hall. Scene l: First Term. The hall is in utter confusion. Causing confusion is a freshman's privi- lege, and it is one of which he always takes advantage. Ah, here comes a freshman! He is vainly looking for C. R. Freshman Cin anguished tonesj: Where's C. R? l am supposed to be there first period, and first period will be over before I get there. A senior comes to the rescue. Freshman continues his tale of woe: One big boob told me C. R. means 'Crawl to Your Rightf After being taken to C. R. the freshie says, Why, l passed this plass three times. A loud squeal issues from behind door of room !8. A senior rushes up to a soph, who is leaning against the door, and says, What's behind that door? Let it out this instant. The soph looks confused and walks away. The senior then aids the white and shaky freshie to come from behind the door. Senior: What were you doing behind that door?

Miss Downing received a likeness of a modern hero, Charlie Chaplin, and Mr. Guise has a whistle, which l hope he won't blow in the halls. Oh! must you go? Oh, Ethel, don't you just love to talk with the teachers? Ethel: Yes, the teachers are very friendly, and you told that teacher almost all of the class history: but forgot to mention the fact that we are the class basketball champions and that all the basketball suits are paid for. Act II: Scene l. Johnson High School. President of the Sophomore class: Do you feel the change? Secretary: What change? President: Why the change of being no longer freshies, but dignified sophomores. l'll never forget as long as l live the way the seniors treated us. Why it was shameful! l make a resolution right here that l'll never 25
