Editor's Note: We only regret that We will not be here next September to see Moe and Walt tangle. Titration and pH were the order of the day and amid a chaos of broken glass and other debris, mingling with the repulsive fumes, We became second Lavosiers and Priestlys. On the cold morning of February 16 We start- ed on a long journey to the Staley Starch Com- pany at Decatur, Ill. In spite of the journey the trip was very Worth While and very instruc- tive. Aside from the odor that predominated Cand which We Will hereafter associate with starchb the plant deemed itself one of the cleanest and most livable plants We have ever been in. Their industry, much like our own, must sell cleanliness and sanitation. - Then came exams and those partings Which we so dislike -- fifteen of the old guard leaving us. Page Ten

textiles and washroom procedure course Messrs. Harmon and Kirby arrive in the fair city of Joliet. Ed. Note - The smiles soon turned to frowns as they delved into chem- istry and textiles. ETURNING from the Christmas vacation, we found fifteen new students eager, yet a little afraid, much as we were that fate- ful day in September, to begin learning the intricacies of washroom procedure and textile construction. However, they too, soon became one of the gang and we went back to the old schedules of work, Woodruff, and worry Cabout gradesb. Professor Morton, Lanky Anderson, and Pretty Boy Carroll tutored us daily and We soon became experts in many and varied arts, including: Washroom practice, chemistry, tex- tiles, laboratory procedure, Woodruffing, etc. During this course two traditions were orig- inated-that of a farewell dinner for 'those leaving the protecting fold, and regular board meetings at the Woodruff. Red Campbell became the class baby and Bud Henry was Papa, Their antics were a continuous boon to our funny bones. Maybe that is what Ohio does for you. Myers seems a little queer, too. We learned a great deal more of Norming- ton's Three Ring Circus, and of his wife, too-from Bill Phair. Bobbie The Angel Leonard took Pops Lamsey's position as Class Cutup, and it was with awe that we learned he was to be married in September. Remember his running around all day with test samples in each hand, then all the trouble he had with the test kit he ordered? Art Anderson was elected president of the Breakfast Club that met every morning dur- ing the first blow in the cafeteria. He ac- cepted his high oflice amid the cheers Cspelled jeersj and shouting of the members, to-wit: the 908 Club, the Lincoln Mob, and the Louis Joliet Rabble. Moe Tubis, the class Red, was panned to the point of utter distraction, but he finally came to take his rimming as .a matter of W 45:21 as-. :-:-:-.-5523 ' oooo ' W 7 , 7 iff' iff if Off ff f :ii ,gg A 9 . :iii 1:4 f' - ' W f fff ff - f-M' Q ' f',ff ,f 1 J,-V 4 .... .ir - ,af f.

sales and advertising course Hempel succeeds Hugo as The Great - Lover, the handsome brute'C?j. HE first day of the sales and advertising course was a usual first dayj' with regis- tration and the hopeful and demonstrative talks by the instructors. Mrs. Grady her usual smiling self, alive and vivacious . . . Mr. Holmes starting with ra lecture on class eti- quette and our attitude . . . Mr. Nutley, a little doubtful about the future of the class . . . but you could tell he was a swell guy, just the same and would come through with his part . . . Ayres, quiet and reserved . . . and the stu- dents maybe we shouldn't mention them. The new students drank in every word, while the mass for messj commented among them- selves on other things and were merely doing the instructors a favor by being there on the first day. . We fell to with a will next day, and 'til the last day of the course we studied diligently - most of us - and found it all very interesting. Advertising became actually intriguing especially to the man from Atalantis . . . Sub- marine Kerrick when the books contain- ing art photographs were passed about the class to give us an idea as to what a modern attractive advertisement should be. He even had a few art lessons from Harold P. on the side in hopes of being able to draw like Petty. Mrs. Grady showed sales films and talked selling 'til we couldsell anything . . . she taught us the two r's-repetition and reports.
