LINCOLN FOUR YEARS IN THE LINCOLN JUNGLE OR - BRING 'EM BACK DEAD IPREFERABLYI Four years ago, from various elemenfary schools in our fair communify, we were graduafed. The principal slapped a diploma info our various miffs and said, My chil- dren, you have now been graduafed. I send you forfh fo new experiences in Lincoln High. Come back Iafer and give me a reporf of whaf you find. So wifh one week's allowance in our jeans, we sfarfed auf fo brave fhe jungles of A. L. H. S. Reporfs began fo filfer back fo our ex almaemafers of some sfrange creafures we found wandering in fhe jungle. These reporfs were forwarded fo fhe Nafional Geographic Sociefy, which senf us fhe direcfions. Make a reporf! And if you find any specimens-bring 'em back dead jpreferablyjf' And so, dear Seniors, offer four hard years of pafienf work, sfudying various fypes. we bring you fhe reporf. You know whom we mean: For a general descripfion, we find fhaf fhese creafures come shorf and fall, mar- ried and ofherwise, happy and grouchy. For amusemenf, some wrife plays and mushy poems, some are camera bugs, some knif, some do clay modelling, some boon-doggie-and all of fhem gossip. AII fhe creafures seem fo possess cerfain qualifies characferisfic of fhem alone. For example. fhere is fhe sfrange case of No. 336 who confinually flaunfs fhe capabili- fies of her kin fo fhe uffer disgusf of fhose who musf Iisfen fo her ufferances of wis- dom Insisfing upon fhe democrafic principle of freedom of expression, she never- fheless persisfs in inferrupfions fending fo disrupf fhis noble principle. Anofher frail' exhibifed by fhis parficular specimen is a consuming belief in her abilify for correcf judgmenf, and every error, musf, alas, remain. Anofher creafure, alfhough conforming in general fo fhis sfrange group. presenfs a personalify somewhaf differenf from any of ifs fellow fypes. This fype seems unable fo keep in mind fhaf if has a specific purpose in fhis jungle and fo fhe poor lisfener, words become a confused jumble. Alas, fo fhose who musf exfracf from his speech definife maffers. A passion for drawing ovals is apparenf in anofher of fhese sfrange creafures. Upon noficing an acfion nof sfricfly according fo convenfion, a long, sharp poinfed pencil is drawn, and a circle is inscribed, lowering fhe record of fhe poor miscreanf. Wifh grand illusions concerning his qualifies of humor, anficjue remarks are revised and fhrusf upon fhe unassuming Iisfener. Differenf fhoughfs and acfions are noficeable, peculiar only fo each of fhe new discoveries. One of fhem, evidenfly, afraid of fhe frufh of The old adage abouf LANDMARK
