[20] T II E C II I I’ M I' N K and I guess she must have majored in ‘plug shooting,’ because she’s now a director and vice-president of the Northern Californian and Oregon Telephone Co., Inc. Remember how she got her start on the Westwood board? Is she single? I’ll say not. Of course she sees very little of her husband, as he’s away on his tours throughout the country. Oh, she married a home town boy, none of this outside stuff for her. You remember him; was a freshman when she graduated; good at the piano. Now he is a second Paderewski. Yes, I mean Leslie Torgerson.” “All right, let’s go to the Casino and see Evelyn’s new play, ‘Who’s Boss Around Here.’ They say it’s a scream. Me? Oh you can find out about me any time. Want to know now? Well, calm yourself and I’ll give you my past.” “I finished civil engineering at U. C. and worked for Stone Webster for a while. Remember the site for a dam up in the Fall River country? I built that dam. That gave me my start nad now I am my own boss. My wife, oh you know her. Used to be Agnes Israelson. Little Jens looks just like her.” “By the way, Floppy, what are you doing now? Flello, there goes a fire engine. Oh Hoppy, where are you going? Well, good bye. No need to ask what he’s doing. It’s easy to see. He’s still running to fires.” —“Hoppy.”

TIIE CHIPMUNK C22] On the second Monday in September about fifty students gathered at Y. H. S. to continue their pursuit of knowledge. Among those who returned to “carry on” for the Red and Black were eight Juniors. During the Christmas vacation the Student Body was grievously shocked and our rank sadly depleted by the untimely calling of Clifford Hemler. Early in the year Fletcher Walker, Jr., left our midst to take up work at the College of the Pacific. Charles Ruttledge also dropped out, thus leaving only six members in our class. Recently Maurice Clow has enrolled with us, making our number seven, and we intend to maintain the proverbial good luck which accompanies this accounting. Although few in number, we feel that we can boast of one hundred per cent interest in participation in all High School activities.
