Messrs. Dewey, Grohne, and Massey and their credit, debit, and ipso facto courses welcomed us. Accounting started off so fast that at the end of the first week everyone took a rest over the week' end. Quite a memorable weekend. Accounting class was quite a little workshop with all deeply absorbed in their Ledgers and Subsidiary Ledgers. The only disturbing noise heard was the cry for bleach. Even the best of accountants will make mistakes. Jake Jacobsen spent one entire morning, almost convincf ting Mr. Dewey that adding machines make mistakes. Better luck next time, Jake, At first blush, the law course looked like a pip. Springer Massey gave us two types of quizzes, either an insult to our intelligences, or so stiff that the Lawyer, himself, had to look up the answers. Rusty Jacobs knew the law perfectly but when it came to putting it on paper he was Non Compismenf tis. Slattery, in answer tothe question where must stockholders hold their meetings came forth with In the stockroom' Brilliant peta darling. Mole Leibowitz and Irish Jacob celebrated the coming of Spring with very close crew hair cuts. In anticipation of the visit to Stateville, no doubt. The annual trip to the State School of higher def gradation at Stateville will be held on graduation day under the auspices of Mr. Massey. Baseball became the favorite afternoon diversion and the old apple really took a beating. Little Jacks became the after dark hangout, superceding the Louis Joliet. Little Jacks was a fine place to relax and try to balance your books. Murray Levine and Wally MacLean bought a vintage Model Ford, but soon sold it because of the restriction on nonfessential cars. ,But tire rationing or no tire rationing, Abe Lapides continued his trips to Chicago every Monday, Wednesday and Friday nights to see his future wife whom he will marry on June 28. ' Jerry Boslow, after five A.I.L. courses, finally learned on which side to iron a shirt collar. Harold Tomlinson had an accounting course of his own with his own happy rate of speed. Old Mon Fogg got that spring urge more than the rest of the boys. He just had to go somewhere and do something. Slattery gave him a good race and png? rlqH70lI76? M ,

So you can see by these happenings, even though Irish Jacob was born in Cleveland, funny things can take place in Joliet, too. Adding to the neverftofbefforgotten episodes, the otherwise diplomatic Tex Shirley displayed at least upon this occasion that tact was what he had none of by telling Mrs. Grady that her tests and selling in particular was so much boodle . It Was at the end of this course that the class lost the able leadership of Tex . He had been an outstand' ing student as well as our class president for the four courses, and. to a man, the class was sorry to see him go. V - ' As the course drew to a close we all knew that advertising was the force that made people go out and buy something instead of saving up for it, and that all you had to do to sell laundry was to say to the housewife when she came to the door, little girl, is your Mother in? So with all this accumulated knowledge we strolled blithely into the next course, little noticing the anvil hanging over our heads. Page Eleven

A very successful steak fry was held at Hammel Woods on May 22, with everyone enjoying the def licious steaks and the fresh air for a change. C Accounting being the last course we all were anxf ious for the hours to roll into days and days into weeks so that we could get home and enjoy a well earned rest. The war had finally struck the Instif tute boys when we realized that all plans, hopes and dreams were out for the duration and that when we leave Joliet we are going to a world full of uncertainties. The year has been an enjoyable one. Cn the eighteenth of June we will all be sorry to leave. We have lived together for ten months and enjoyed each other's companionship. Page Thirteen
