' I Campus Cops Cooperate Three hundred and seventy-two words to be written on nothing but earth, Egbert informs himself. There just isn't any justice left in this land of the free. Not that I don't want to give those fellows that take care of our campus, lawns, shrubbery, and buildings all the credit due them, but I guess I am just getting lazy on the job. Well, since I don't know enough about the ground patrol to write so many words about it, I guess I'll just go downstairs and find some young fellow on duty. Following his decision to obtain an interview, Egbert walks down the Fifth Building fire escape, crosses in front of the stand, and in due time arrives directly in front of the Eighth Building. But much to the scribe's concern there is no one who looks very authoritive in sight on the campus, although just across the lawfn stands a young man talking to a fellow stu- dent who might be a part of the ground patrol. So Egbert, with the absent mindedness very characteristic of a jour- nalist, crosses the nice green lawn. Right in the midst of his trespassing a loud voice demands, What in the name of common sense are you doing on that grass! Don't you know better than to walk across the lawns? You are just the person I'm looking for! 7' Egbert cries, I am a reporter from the Coyote Journal, and I want you to inform me of the activities of the ground workers and your co-workers, the hall patrol. This young man, who by the way, has always desired to be an orator begins, You may tell my dear public, the students of P.U.H.S., that we are to them what one would imagine a nightmare to be. When they accidently, or on purpose, amble across the grass We say, 'Off the grass, you. Say, you, can't you hear?' And to those young men and women who just haven't enough ambition to walk to a trash can to relieve themselves of papers, we quietly tell them to pick up the papers, or we will hand them a few demerits. Of course the demerits are used as a threat in rnost cases. Occasionally, however, some student oversteps the bounds of our goodwill and commits an offense once too often. We warn students a number of times successively about keeping off the grass. We make them pick up their trash papers several times. Our patience finally wears out, and then we find it necessary to turn in the offender's name to the Board of Control. ' Our fellowmen, the hall duty boys, have about the same trouble, with the added worry of keeping students out of the buildings during the lunch periods. 32

ufmi Tl1eyDe12el0,0 Charm The sponsor of the Friendship Club, Miss Helen Morgan, is the oasis and foun- tain of knowledge for Egbert's nc-:Xt story. She has consented to describe fully the club of which she is sponsor. As Egbert enters Miss Morgan's room, some of the committee heads are discussing plans for a future party. He asks his first question, What does the club do? As soon as the words are out of his mouth one of the girls quickly asks Miss Morgan if she may give her version of what the Friendship Club does and what it has meant to her. The sponsor approves and the girl says, I was a mid-year freshman this year and didn't know anyone at high school. The Friendship Club C I discovered its name laterj held a party and introduced the Big and Little Sisters. Through it I was introduced to many girls and I have since then become a member. In our membership roll are about eighty listed members, but some of our meet- ings draw as many as 150 girls. 'fWe meet, as do most high school clubs once every two weeks. Interesting programs are given by different members of the organi- zation to promote friendly feeling.
