l l Elllil . wanna lr:-'uzunsl-Ill: A W CLASS WILL A Renunciation in One Act Setting: Gymnasium Time: Some Sunday in the middle of the week Dramatis Personae: Senior Class of S'29 Spendthrift Juniors Bargain hunting underclassmen Curtain 2 Enter James Shearer and Ralph Sach carrying training table. They place it in the middle of the gym. Closely following them are the tearful seniors, each one carry- ing his respective belongings. Soon a crowd of students gather. Carefully wiping away all traces of tears, Ben I-Iannebrink mounts the table. Ben Hannebrink: Friends, Scotchmen, fellow-sufferers, lend me your ears. VVe come to sell our priceless treasures, not to bury them. The evil that we have done with them is to he allowed to live after us. The money collected today will go toward the senior gift-individual rubber-coated pads on which to park during gym classes. To start the ball rolling I offer to sell to anyone my faithful sousaphone. The person buying it will have the privilege of carrying it back and forth from school every day and may learn how to blow upon it from Mr. Crawford. What am I bid? Alan Renn bids five cents! Here you are, Fat. Yours for keeps! Lois Goddard: Students, a real bargain! I'm willing to sacrifice this special copy of True Romance that I've found so interesting to read during English class. A perfectly good copy except for a few coupons missing from the back. Ah, Beulah, l give it to you for two sticks of VVrigley's. Alfred Jaunsem: lVIy secret out at last! I'm offering to any lassie this jar of beauty cream of my own invention. Apply it every night as I've always done, and you will acquire rosy cheeks like mine. A guaranteed money-back proposition. Who is this blushing maiden who makes the bid of 25 cents! Oh, yes, Oma Beckwith. La Dorn Hall: Here is my bright orange tie. Genuine silk from the cocoon. I'll give it to anyone who will have the nerve to wear it. Put? Did I hear you speak? Right, my boy, you may have it to wear with your purple sweater. lVIildred Bell: Will anyone buy me out? I have 500 pounds of paper here, a most complete collection of middle and skirt records and demerit slips: don't all speak at once, please. CSilence.l Alack! this student body is devoid of charitable beings. Ethel, Ethel, come to my rescue, quick! Catherine lVIullin: Economics clippings! just the thing for people contemplat- ing taking ec. next semester. A complete set-that is, er, nearly complete. lVIost valuable collection of data for prospective economists. Who,ll give a good price for the goods? Charles Faulkner gives a whole dollar! Fine! I'm glad my taking eco- nomics has done my class some good, even if it did no good to me. Helen 'l'ouvell: My offering is a rare specimen of an art appreciation note book. A glamorous and heterogenous color effect on the cover and a unique type of hand printing within the book. Perhaps a little illegible at spots, but what bearing has that, considering' the originality of the whole. Here's your chance, you freshmen! Richard Burr offers I5 cents! Itls worth more, but I'1l let it go at a sacrifice, since he's a deserving lad. john Clark: This morning I brought a TOSC-I1 most perfect one-to V. D., but she wouldn't accept it, so having resolved never more to give flowers to any female, I sell to anyone this rose. It has taken a fortune to raise it in my garden, I19I
