Mrs. Cotter making the ideal housewife and Corby running a close sec- ond Che Wouldj. Corby's love for Mrs. Grady was the only thing that brought her to school when she had a terrible cold - she told us that confidentially one day when there were only 29 of us there . . . Ain't love grand? A trip to Swift and Co., Frank Young's Lay- out School, the Chicago Tribune, and the NBC Studios brought out most of the students and their Wives. Evidently the Wives don't trust their husbands alone in the big city - who can blame them? The Illinois Laundryowners' Convention was held here at Joliet and We were permitted to attend. Noel Grady of the Starchroom Journal gave a very informative speech there and Was a guest of the school the neXt afternoon at our invitation. His lecture was most interesting and beneficial. Mr. Shefferman, of Sears Roe- buck and Co., gave one of the best speeches on Employer-Employee Relations We have ever heard. Two luncheons at the Hotel Louis Joliet Cat the expense of the Institute, to the delight of everyonej afforded us the opportunity to hear Mr. Homer D. Morrow of radio station WCFL in Chicago, and Mr. Jack Joyce, president of the Joyce 7 -Up Company, both men giving very enjoyable and helpful talks. Then again came parting and the disperse- ment of more alumni to their respective plants throughout the United States. Page Twelve

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. CEdi- tor's Note: My fingers still ache from pushing typewriter keys.J Some of us were always up in the air -this atop the Tribune Building in ' Chicago.. X Page Eleven

Y laundry accounting course An expose of Y activities. This picture was taken the day the sun came out. N THE 19th of April, threedays before the course began, we were astonished to hearthat Chis had been married to his home town sweetheart, Miss Juanita. CEditor's Note: We didn't even get a cigar.J From the first day of the course, things hap- pened amazingly fast. There was no more palsy-walsy relationship between instructors and faculty. Mr. Dewey was and is Mr. Dewey. Mr. Massey - Mr. Massey CSpringer, and Mouthpiece to some, but not in public.j After the first week we all could see figures swimming before us and didn't know which way to turn. By the time the practice set of books came around We were human calculators, some not very accurate, according to the amount of magic consumed. The calculators that were finally provided gave a select few a chance to play. CTubis and Greene, please note.j We all will well remember Dick Corby's Bullet There never was or ever will be a car with so many defects. We have witnessed the lemon of the century in the automotive Page field. With all due respect to Mr. Corby and his personal desire to comply with the class schedule, he was the cause of the unusual class tardiness for the period. The exams every two weeks caused many ohs and ahs, for grades had a tendency to vary from one two-week period to the next. Law, in particular, caused this peculiar reac- tion. The second quiz was the worst, with only seven passing. CEditor's Note: We should be ashamed -and are.D Debits, credits, accrued accounts, reserve for depreciation, and the other hundred or so terms used by us accountants were the basis for the accounting quizzes. It was surprising to note how many were doing all their work and had a perfect set of books and didn't even know what they were doing. They soon learned, however, and Dewey's Decimal system came into its own. It is important, and we found it out.. - -.4 a f f f ,, ..,, zgzgzcgiziz, --g,:,:g,.g5 -:- ,:,f,:1:,.,:,.::,,::-:g:g:: V155 . -fvr 12:5 ,.y'.':,:1:g::::::,, 1V1,:Q:1:1.111.g1,,11:,::g,:,::z1:-zz:g:,:g:g.g:g:'14,-11::::::,v-gg 3: 5i25i1E1E5lElf1E-.
