We're coming in for a landing. Why, it's La Guardia Field and I see Sara Io Nipper down there to meet us. While waiting for a taxi we get to swapping the latest gossip. She had just seen Mrs. Mary Lee Fitzgerald and Mrs. Connie Mathis talking to Shelton Pilkerton and G. L. Thomas the other day. They had come up to the big city on a vacation from Dury' , I believe. I hear that Tommy Webb is looking for a partner. Now that the war is over, there are plenty of cigarette butts down at Sulphur Dells and the job is too much for him. Strl-i-ke three and you're out! Iimmy Iennette really knows his ball. Virgil Nlpper and -Carl Schutt are on base and the grand stands are roaring. fWe had trouble getting that taxi: so we arrived latel. Rooting for them is Hansel Krantz and a traveling salesman by the name of Lindburgh Freeman. Hansel is managing the New York Yankees. I see that famous surgeon, Bo Bardlll, over ln the stands. On the way out we stop at Bud La Rue's piewagon. Hm-ml They're good. En- joying them are Zelbert Weakley and Donald Saunders. Opening night on Broadway! I passed that million- aire, Milton Barnes, ln the lobby of the theater. And who happens to have seats next to me but Tommy Dozier escorting a beautiful blonde. The play is Hamlet. The stars are lean Wade and Popeye Barnes. What? The sign says, Cars washed and greased Sl.00. Elvin Hoffman, Proprietor. My taxi swishes to a stop for gas. The pump attendant is Charles I.. .Thomp- son. l'd never have known him: he was so covered with grease. A car comes in behind us. It is driven by Ioe King. Those kids of his screaming their heads off get on my nerves. As we drive away another car pulls in driven by Albert Friedman. I am certain I saw Betty Io Sneed in the back seat. They must be getting back from the Notre-Dame-Navy game. The vision fades: the witches vanish. I find myself seated again behind my desk at National Life. It was fun while lt lasted. Au revolrl lASl Wllll IIHSIAMEI ln as much as we, Robert Burgess, Iustine Iones and Ann Shearon, having more or less successfully passed long and laborious years at North, and now realizing that our many classmates, having undergone similar trials, are due some special compensation and dispen- sation do bequeath to them the following things. There- fore, in the presence of these witnesses sound fn mind t?l and body, and in solemn realization of our respon- sibility we do, therefore, leave to our fellow classmates these things, with our blessing and our confidence in their appropriateness. FIRST: To our successors, the Iuniors, we bequeath our many senior privileges, our enthusiasm for sports. dances, and outings, and above all the quiet dignity which we, as seniors, have possessed. SECOND: To the Sophomores, we bequeath our abili- ty to bluff the Faculty, roam the corridors, and accom- plish any task which may be set before us. THIRD: To the Freshmen, we bequeath our superior intelligence, our willingness to work, and our school spirit. g FOURTH: To the Junior High School, we bequeath our knowledge of the world and of life, and our extreme devotion to any program or activity which is being carried on in school in the hope that said program br activity will help them later on in their high school life. FIFTH: To the Faculty, we bequeath our thanks for the happiness and memories they have given u dur- ing the past four years in the hope that they will re- member us forever. LASTLY: We do hereby nominate and appoint all students at North as executors, without bond, of this our last will and testament. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, We have hereto subscribed our ,names this fourth day of Iune, in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Forty-seven. fSignedl. ROBERT BURGESS IUSTINE IONES ANN SHEARON WHEREFORE ,We do hereby affix our names as wit- nesses that the above has been duly drafted and that the makers thereof have given each beneficiary their personal consideration. Witnesses: IIMMY JENNETTTE HANSEL KRANTZ
