OGRE H LL THE TIME is 11:30 P.M. Freddy, a Lakesider, has just put away his books after study- ing for his ten chapter tests, which is coming up in the morning. He rubs his sore eyes, which got that way from reading logarithmic tables. He yawns, places his pencil in the chapter marked St. Thomas of Acquinas, The Scholastic, and drags himself to bed. Through Freddy,s mind race many strange images, ten place logarithms, test tubes play- ing tag, and masters shaking lingers over which run streams of clear. cool water labeled knowledge. Freddy isn,t a psychological case, he is just a tired Lakesider. Philosophy, solid ge- ometry, physics, Latin, and chemistry, all of these are subjects he can either learn or deny. He works hard from 7:30 until his eyelids drop somewhere around 11:00 o'clock in the evening. The work is difficult, the grades do not come easily. But there is another and lighter side to Lakeside life. Let us follow invisibly, of course, for Lakesiders do not like to be followed, a Lakesider in his daily routine. If Freddy is a dormitory boy, he is tossed, he never awakens, out of bed somewhere near the seven o'clock mark. Freddy slips into his violet check pants fall Lakesiders like conspicuous clothesj, his collarless and conservative black and yellow hounds-tooth check sports coat, and dashes. still knotting his tie, for breakfast. He chats with the other boarders about the Russian situation, dances, girls, base- ball, track, girls, Hemingway's novels, girls, the atomic age, girls, and dances. You see he has a wide range of interests. He wipes the egg off his suit and heads for the class- rooms. Vainly he attempts to write clown all the notes that are being fired by the master in charge. His Parker '51, which does not write under water, has suddenly run dry, hence no more notes. Finally lunch. The happiest hour of the day for any Lakesider. There he does not speak, he does not gaze, he does not lounge. He eats. A startling statement, but a true one. Afternoon classes are hard on Freddy. He is the athletic type and is yearning to get out in the sun to play baseball or run track. Finally the bell. Freddy is happy. He takes his shower after practice and heads for his room to listen to the trunks of classical and jazz records he has collected. This is the dorm boy's hour of charm. Anyone interrupting this hour of charm is put on the blacklist unless he has pull or is a senior. Freddy goes to dinner. Talk is then resumed on the afore-men- tioned subjects, and tickets are sold for seats close to the door so one can get an early jump for the telephone. Freddy goes to study hall in the evening. His Fusion is too tough to do, so he seeks aid from a master. The master tells Freddy that all he needs to do is add the logarithms and subtract one-third the square root of negative one and he has the answer. Freddy gives up after an hour and fifteen minutes. He is frustrated by a master who believes in the importance of study and concentration. After a long day, Freddy hits the sack. He goes to sleep immediately, his mind full of nfiguresf' This is the life of a dorm boy. 32
