Scene: A low, long, hall, filled with resounding cat-foot falls. Discovered: At the ulterior end of the hall, a figure seated upon the floor bending intently over a small square object. The excruciating squeek of the Ouija board is heard. Finally a voice is dis- tinguished. Voice: Now Ouija, disclose to me the fate of the class of 1921. (Ouija moves jerkily, a sullen expression on its face.) Ouija: None of your business. Voice: I know Cuija, but fifty teachers and a thousand students of Lawrence High School are anxiously awaiting my report. Ouija: Well if you will cease your loquaciousness and let me do the talking I’ll tell you. Voice: I am in sack cloth and ashes. Ouija: Well here goes.
