Often we do so just to satisfy our own ego. It gives us a certain amount of self-importance to say, Now, I have lived a few more years than you, you really ought to sit at my feet and listen. You just can't know too much about this your- self. You aren't old enough. I don't want to do anything like that. I simply aim to reiterate perhaps just one rule of life which you and I in our personal chats and in the assemblies together have again and again considered. It is as much your philosophy as it is mine . . . You, as I, have watched some people meet what we call adversity and collapse and fall to pieces under it. The very same experience has occurred in the life of anotherg and it is taken, built upon, and the person becomes even stronger and more useful. From this you and I gather that educa- tion does nothing for us if it doesn't enable us to meet all phases of life. For example, it is a simple matter for a man to be happy and even useful when all of life goes his way. When a' man's salary is fairly large so that he can buy good clothes for his wife and children, shelter them in a fairly beautiful home and provide an extra car or two-well, most men can be reasonably happy under such conditions. But suppose such can no longer be provided because the salary has been reduced or lost entirely or dividends no longer paid. just how a man stands up under a barrage like this is really what counts. If he moans 1 ,J about the government or labor or the capitalistic sys- tem or his boss or any one of so many things that we can always find to complain aboutg if he feels that he personally has been unjustly treated and singled out by God for his misfortune, then education once gotten, wealth once possessed, family once happy won't help that man.' He must learn that all of life was intended to be met and that he fails where any phase of it completely knocks him out . . . For example, you as a student aren't doing well in your studies. How you react to this experience tests character. If you bemoan the fact that the Lord didn't give you brains to com- pare with those of the brilliant student in your class, or whine about the fact that the teacher doesn't under- stand you and 'has a grudge against you so that you cannot do your best, or that there are too many chores about the house for you to do so that you haven't sufficient time for your home work, or that there isn't a quiet place around the home where you can con- centrate-well, I don't need to reiterate, YOU ARE LOST! The test of life is just what you can do under even these adverse circumstances-if they do exist, for you must keep in mind that many of our adversities are really mental rather than actual as you'll soon discover from those morbid souls around you who are always painting so black a picture they frighten them- selves and others to the point of becoming ineffectual. Remember this always: You in life will never be called upon to experience that which has not already QContimu'd on Page 963 , -3- Swiss Evening Night's dark shades have almost Blanketed the countryside. At our feet a surging mountain Stream tumbles down, down, down, Disappearing at last into The growing darkness. Nestled deep in a valley, Between two verdant mountain Slopes, lies a tiny Swiss village. Its lights twinkle like hundreds Of friendly little stars, seeming To beckon, beckon us home. And above the sound of the torrent, From some wandering musician In the village below, drifts the Soothing refrain of a song, Borne to us on the wings Of the evening breeze. It is at times like these That men are glad to be alive. When they meditate upon scenes like This, they forget their cares And thrill to the beauty And glory of the Creator. -B. Averill -4- i J 9 WITH F RED GOLDSHITII HI-Olsgf I-1Es!i4iUEKEHfUH,1QjA7 DISCOVER!! OF' THE CURVE S the last curve broke across the plate to retire the batter and end the baseball game, a very different scene was taking place in another section of the ball park. Fred Goldsmith, the inventor of the curve ball was being besieged by reporters and photographers. He had come to see a baseball game, a ball game as it is played todayg but his fame was too far-reaching to permit him his much desired peace. The ball game became a- secondary matter as news reporters proceeded to get their stories. This is the picture that came to our minds as we sat in a typical little Michigan farmhouse situated about fifty miles north of America's greatest baseball city. There we found eighty-two-year-old Fred Goldie Goldsmith, coiner of that famous saying, He's a sucker for a curve ball. - He greeted us warmly, and as soon as our mission was made known, a battered traveling case packed with clippings, pictures, and souvenirs was spread be- Photo by courtesy of International News Service BALL fore us. Everything we looked at had a story which our host eagerly related. Fred Goldsmith was born in New Haven, Connec- ticut, during the 18S0's. Throughout his youth, he was constantly using his playmates as backstops for his pitching efforts. When only eleven, he made the unusual discovery which later brought him fame and fortune. By holding the ball in a certain position and snapping the wrist in a peculiar manner, he managed to make the ball go in a curved path. This defied all the existing laws of science and soon aroused the interest of Henry Chadwick, president of the National League and greatest baseball editor of all time. Chadwick invited fifteen-year-old Freddie to come to New York and prove his claim. So before a crowd of 14,000 curious fans, he gave the first exhibi- tion of his wonderful discovery which was to revolu- tionize baseball. Upon his return home, the owner of the Tecumseh Club in London, Ontario, offered him a job at 300 dollars a month. Fred's father strongly opposed base- ball as a career, but with the fine salary which was offered, the chance seemed too good to miss. So in 1876, Fred Goldsmith joined the Tecumseh Club. During those three years in which I played with them, I pitched every game and we won the International League Championship three years in succession. In 1878 we challenged the Chicago White Stockings, the champions of the National League to a playoff series. In that series, I pitched and won three successive games to make the Tecumseh Club the First World Champions. , The following year saw me in a Chicago uniform under the management of Pop Anson. In the three seasons when I was with them, we won two World Championships. While with that team, we played a three-game series at Indianapolis. The first game, played in the morning, was called at the end of nine innings, a scoreless tie. After fourteen innings in the afternoon, the game was again called, another scoreless tie. The next day we won the third game by a score of 1-0, and I had allowed only one hit in the entire series. 4 While pitching against Boston in 1883, my arm suddenly went dead and began shaking violently. It CContinuea' on Page 982 -.5-.. Perchance to Dream E sat alone in the rear of the rick- ety little coach, one of three pas- - sengers traveling over this now 2 almost-forgotten route. Ahead of him m the car two salesmen laughed and joked nosily with the conductor He started unseeing D W ' ' out of the window. Seventy years had passed above his finely moulded head, and his hair was as white as the snows that fall upon the Vermont hills through which the rusty little engine was laboriously wending its way. His delicately chiseled features were stamped with the mark of a man who has followed his path through life quietly and serenely, untouched by an age that has swept past him. His hands, folded in his lap, were soft and white like a woman's and their backs were traced with fine blue veins. Stately black covered his thin shoulders and a bit of black string was knotted at his throat. He was going home. For iifty years he had moved vaguely through the murk and smoke and grime of a great city, following its strange ways, rubbing shoul- ders with its hurrying press of peopleg and all that long time he had been living in a dream. A dream of green fields and green trees, of blue sky and blue water, of golden grain and golden sunshine. A dream withal of home-his home and his world, encompassed within the bounds of a small New England village tucked away in the hills. Leaving that home had wrought a strange change in the boy of twenty who had turned his youthful face to the West long years ago. The boy, become a man, lived within himself. Shy, reticent, marked by his tenement neighbors as queer, he worked long hours at his lowly position in a great bank. His job was his only contact with the world. His mild blue eyes were filled with the inexpressible longing of a man who has been close to Nature, and who, suddenly snatched away, dreams always of returning. And then he had been retired. They had given him a gold watch on the case of which was engraved his name and the words In token of fifty years' faithful service. He had drawn his life's savings from the bank and packed his bag that same day. Twenty-four hours later he was on his way. He was going home. The dream had become a reality. His mind struggled with the misty cobwebs of memory. Clearest in his recollections was the village. Red roofs, towering maples, great sprawling lawns of lush grass, rambling old white frame houses. It seemed he was walking its quiet streets even now. But first, of course, the tiny engine must grind noisily over the old wooden bridge that spanned Carver's Creek QHow often had he lished from and swum under that old bridgelj , pant wearily up the long hill, and with a sigh and a wheez, chuff slowly down into the valley on the other side and come to a heaving halt at the little station. Old Man Shea, the venerable station master who wore red elastic arm bands and carried a roll of snuE under his upper lip, would saunter nonchalantly from the murky depths of the little wooden building to greet him, saying in his highly nasal drawl, Well, Jim, you've come back to us, have you? The boys are get- ting up a cribbage game at the station house tonight. Shall we count you in? He would nod eager assent. And then Willie Rog- gin, who drove the chaise from the station to the Brownell House, would roll up and laugh and crack his big whip and holler, Well, jim! You just come along with me naow! We folks at the Brownell 'll treat you right! You 'member how I used to let you drive my horses! You just come along with me! He would laugh and say to Willie, Nem'mine, Wil- lie, I'm walking today! And then he would be walk- ing up the shaded dusty'street, feeling again the touch of the cool spring breeze on his cheek, and breathing deep of the rich spring air. The broad maples would cast splayed leafy shadows in the road, and he would -5.- scuff up little spurts of dust with his shoes kicking at the shadows. He would hear the lazy drone of the bees in the fields, and the glorious chorus of the birds in the trees. And he would throw back his head and his shoulders and sing with them, for he would be home again-home. In the cool of the long evenings he would gather with his friends at the station house, or sit and enjoy a pipe with them around the pump in the town square. And all would be peace and contentment. Back where the little engine had picked him up would be hurry and noise and confusion. Here would be quiet, because here would be home. He awoke from his reverie with a start. A clash and a grinding of wheels told him that the train was cross- ing the bridge. A brief expanse of steel and concrete flashed past his window. He stared in bewilderment. Where was the old, moss-covered, wooden bridge? And Carver's Creek? Why, one hardly knew it was there. A trickle of turgid water. That was all. He could not grasp the change. And then the train was pulling to a stop in the station. He picked up his worn bag and stepped out onto the platform, blinking in the sunlight. A tidy platform of concrete stretched before him, and a com- pact building of yellow brick-the station. The sta- tion master, a youngish man with glasses and a stiff collar, was busily engaged in transferring the mail. Doubtfully, fearfully, he turned to the conductor, trying to find words to voice a question that was creep- ing over him with slow dread. The conductor patted him reassuringly on the shoulder. This is it, pop. The end of the line. This is your station. There's the town right through there. He pointed. Numbly, the old man turned haltingly in the direc- tion pointed out by the conductor. A great broad highway, six lanes wide, ran north and south as far as the eye could see among the hills. It traveled through the center of the town. Shiny-faced three-and-foun story stores and buildings lined it on each side. Neat little homes were laid out in businesslike rows. Stone, concrete, brick, and steel were everywhere. The old station house, the Brownell House, the town pump, the towering maples-where were they? Industrious little factories had risen where once had stretched green and golden fields. The old man was aware that the pair of shiny yellow taxis which had replaced Willie Roggin's chaise were waiting impatiently for him to choose the one which should carry him into the heart of the town. The town that had grown up. The old town that had grown young in fifty years' time. -N. Lyle QJVQ Cover and stick out tongue as far as possible. Blow a little, pull a little, and then blow hard.

Monarch of all he surveys, undisputed ruler in his field, Benny Goodman is nevertheless an extremely lik able, modest, and retiring young man who, as King of Swing, is still able to wear a hat in lieu of a crown. It was our privilege to interview Mr. Goodman in his dressing room at the Fox Theater shortly after he and his band had Hnished uswingin' out before a wildly enthusiastic mob of swing fans who packed the house to its very rafters. Rather tired after his strenu- ous session, he was stretched full length on a couch, attired only in shirt, shorts, and bath robe when we entered. The friendly smile with which he rose to greet us put us completely at ourease, and the interview pro- ceeded on a strictly informal plane thereafter. In a few minutes, as a matter of fact, Mr. Goodman felt free to go over to the little washstand to brush his teeth. This operation consumed the better part of the time we spent with him, and a good many of our ques- tions were answered through a foamy froth. But the King of Swing was sincere at all times, and his kindly helpfulness and co-operation made it possible for us to acquit ourselves better than we had expected. I first began to play when I was about ten years old, Benny recalled for us. My father picked out the clarinet as my instrument. and both my parents saw to it that I kept at my practising. It was at that time that I decided to follow a musical career. And how long was it before you organized your own band? we asked. I formed my first band three years ago, he replied. Before that, I had played a lot with other bands and orchestras. I've played with symphony orchestras, too, you know. The members of my first band were fellows I had met while playing with other outfits, and we got together. Most of the present members of my band were with our original group. We mentioned that we had heard his band play sev- eral symphonic numbers on the radio not long ago. And it was at once apparent that Benny Goodman's first love is classical music. He was keenly interested in our reaction to the symphonic numbers, and was definitely pleased when he learned that we liked them. It is our belief that some day Benny Goodman will turn from swing music to the classics, but strictly as a hobby. ' It was at this point that he rose from the couch and went to the washbowl where he produced toothbrush and powder and set to scrubbing his teeth. This is the way to brush your teeth, he said, demonstrating for us. Massage the gums. It's good for 'em. What do you think of the swing maniacs who get out in the aisles and shout and dance when you play? was our next question. If they want to do it, why let 'em. After all, if that's what they like, why should we stop them? Per- sonally, I wouldn't do it myself. But then, I'm older than you are. It's the younger generation which goes for swing most. My favorite song? I haven't got any. Any good song is a favorite with me. Any song suited to our style. But then you don't hear the tune after the first chorus anywayg so it really doesn't make much differ- ence. Would you give us a bit of advice for young musi- cians? we queried. Would you advise a youngster to enter the popular or the classical Held? N Both, he replied, I played classical as a boy my- self, but I believe a young fellow should be able to play both. Tell your young musicians to learn all the tech- nique they can. To learn the fundamentals, because they're what count. It's just like football. A fellow may be a natural, but he's got to learn the fundamen- tals-blocking, tackling, and holding the ball before he's any good to the team. Tell 'em not to be afraid to play swing. Swing isn't anything new. It's always been here, but it's more emphasized now than it's ever been. They don't need to be ashamed to play swing. Tell 'em to get themselves a good teacher. Tell 'em to work hard and to master technique. But tell 'em that a teacher can't teach 'em everything. And certain it is that no teacher ever taught likeable Benny Goodman the style that has placed him on a pedestal before several million adoring fans. Because swing belongs to Benny Goodman, and Benny Good- man is swing. -N. Lyle -J. Scolaro -N. Vicari0 -3- l 1 -9.. ' . cc 'LL see you at the game! With this challenge still ringing in all ears, the students slowly filed from the auditorium. They had met Mr. Bechtold for only the second time, but already he had inspired them to a new school spirit which they had seldom seen in Baldwin. When Mr. Bechtold assumed his duties in September, he based his whole program of school activities on awakening a dormant spirit in the students as a whole. The immediate results were surprising. Today, as we prepare for our summer vacation, we can not help looking back over the past school year and seeing the new day that has dawned in student enthusiasm at Baldwin. Mr. Bechtold was born in Girard, Illinois, where he attended public school. He graduated from Illinois State Normal University and received his M. A. degree at Columbia with special recommendations. His first job was teaching science in a rural school in Illinois. After eight years as a teacher and a principal, he went to Flint where several positions led up to the principal- ship of the Longfellow School when it was built in 1929. After a successful term he came here. As an educator, Mr. Bechtold has long since made a name for himself, both in state and national organi- zations. He is a past president of the Department of fn... ff., High School Principals of the Michigan Education Association and now is very active in that same organi- zation as a committee chairman in charge of Profes- sional Problems and as the Michigan Co-ordinator of Discussion Groups. It was in this capacity that he spoke before the National Convention in Atlantic City , this spring. Of course, Mr. Bechtold is not without his human side. His charming wife finds him a perfect husband to cook for because he eats anything and everything and enjoys it. After a hard day's work, he finds great relaxation in reading, preferably a good detective storyg and he can easily provide himself with a quiet evening's entertainment by reading a good book or a magazine. However, we should not surmise from this that he does not indulge in any other amusements. He loves to dance, and he attends the movies as often as his work permits. He likes to play bridge only as a relaxation and not as a competitive game. He has always been very interested in sports, both as a spectator and as a participant, but in recent years he has been unable to find sufficient time to devote to any sport. While we are talking about his interests, it is fitting to mention his fondness for young people, particularly boys. He has been active in several boys' organiza- tions such as Boy Scouts, YMCA, and Hi-Y and has always shown a ready desire to,co-operate in any fine youthful activity. During the summer, Mr. Bechtold finds' his interests turned to far away places. He loves to travel and espe- cially to drive a car. He is constantly intrigued by the desire to visit new places, see new things, and explore interesting roads. As we close this glimpse into the life of Mr. Bech- told, we hope that we have made you know him better, not as our principal, but as a man and friend. -G. De Graff li 4. WHEN vivid summer days were lengthening into the golden autumn, my year of life began. Then it was that every heart was vibrant with anticipation of what might lie ahead. I remembered. I waited, too, with cheering, throbbing crowds when hopes were high as the clouds which raced above us and when defeat brought silence and despair. Each morning when Grst the dawn light silhouetted desks which had rested all night in darkness, silently, as has ever been my wont, I glided through empty, echoing halls and vacant class- rooms. I watched as first the sun's rays sent their warming light ' tdpjtf' g we Stretching From Their Sleepy Hollows into the school. Throughout each day I lived within the very soul of every student, hearing not only the outward noise and turbulence, but capturing each thought of the humble and proud alike. And now the glistening, frosty winter has passed, and spring has come. My work is finished. My theme is that of joy and hope, of sorrow and disappoint- ment, of eager, milling classes and of quiet nights of communion with these walls of which I arn a part. I sing of all the beauty and the spirit which is the very memory of youth. l am The Piper. -12- Rushing Madly From Their Dwellings Here Their Place of Sport and Revels With the Empty Rooms of Learning Here :he Shining Halls Awair Them I 5 , 5 A T .

Beating Around the Australian Bush UAVA PASTE felt the beating of his heart shake his whole being as he looked anxiously around at' the faces of the tribal elders. They were all cold and uncompromising as sthey sternly considered the pun- ishment that should be given for his unpardonable sin. He had called the eldest son of the medicine man's brother a grooval! What a fool he had been to use the term on someone who had so much political influence. Bravely he tried to pass olf his nervousness by think- ing how lucky it was that he didn't like watermelon, but all in vain. No, Guava Paste, the time has come. You have mixed your fritter batter and now you must sit in it. As he was meditatively wiggling his toes in the dust, he heard the voices of the elders addressing him. Racka backa soda cracka, racka backa boo, igloo igloo smig. f Guava Paste, we, the ancient and hoary members of the tribe, after due consideration of your case, have reached a decision. J He ceased writing the name of his loved one, Woozlcbird, on the ground with his left big toe and looked up. A grooval in the hand is worth two in the bush, they continued. Therefore, since you have called the nephew of such an illustrious tribesman a grooval, you shall leave the village and not return until you bring with you a grooualf' Two hours later, Guava Paste left through the main gate of the village with his clean socks and a bottle of Nuit d'Amour du Potage des Choux, that some mis- sionaries had once given him, wrapped up in a big hanky, and a sorrowful picture in his mind of the look on Woozlebircfs face when he had told her what was to be his fate. Before he was out of sight, he looked V, back for one last glimpse of his S Qi-gm home town. There he saw the evil face of the eldest son of the medi- y-'Xl ' cine man's brother, the man who 4 1 ' was the cause of his undoing, leer- X - ' ing at him from over the top of the . at aaa. gm' Somehow, he thought to him- self, I must manage to capture a grooval, so I can come back and save Woozlebird from that fiend's clutches. So, wiggling his ears defiantly at the evil apparition, he marched off into the trackless bush from whence few men return. '34 'H G Professor Paramecium Piewaddie was immersed in his scientific research of sex expression in spinach when the tingling of the doorbell roused him from his studies. He opened the door and peered into the face of a mes- senger boy with his bloodshot eyes. He reached out with his trembling fingers and took the telegram from the lad, giving him a gentle push down three flights of stairs. Returning to his inner room, he opened and read his thirty-page telegram. It was from Eggle Noggen himself, owner of the Nasturtium Museum of Unnatural History. Oh rapture! he sighed. Oh ecstasy! he mur- mured. At last they are sending me to capture the balloon-nosed parallelo-biped. I will go into the Aus- tralian bush with my army of followers and single- handed bring back the ferocious two-legged beast. This calls for celebration, he said, gaily climbing out the window. I'll go out and become inebriated with rum and butter toffeef' A month later, having landed in Australia and hav- ing secured a native guide, he set out on his quest into the trackless bush from whence K few men return. 4' 36 L fs 5 Spirogyra Wimpfen-Figgens was one of the gayest playboys in town when he wasn't on one of his expe- ditionsg so it was little wonder that the Sneetch Biological Research should consider him the most appiopriate man to send to the Australian bush to capture the insectivorous eobiccup, whose mating call is the well known spas- modic convulsion of the diaphragm,-a loud and un- mistakable hic. Wim Pu--Fi - ans As he stood at the edge of the bush with his little party of followers, peering into the deep gloom beneath the trees, a determined look spread over his face. I must succeed, he muttered. If I come back with the cobiccup, I might even be promoted to the head of the janitor division of the museum. So, grit- ting his lollypop between his teeth, he took the decisive step forward into the trackless bush from whence few men return. lb I5 35 Professor Piewaddie gazed rapturously at his sur- roundings and said ominously between hiccups, for the poor man had notoriously poor digestion, This looks like the place, hic.

USIC hath charms to soothe the savage beast. What, then, must be the full extent of its effect on those gentle folk whose very souls cry out in ecstasy when the bow is drawn across the violin, or when the piano's golden voice is released by the manipulation of its magic keys? For my part, the very reverse of the above quotation is true. I am not soothed or calmed by music. The serene monotony of my otherwise placid existence is shattered by the sweetest of dulcet tones. At the sound of the first note, my eye lights up. I am filled with a strange fire. I stir restlessly, and the close ob- server sees that I am keeping time to the music with all parts of my anatomy--my head, my hands, my feet. Music awakens in me a wistful longing, a hitherto well-controlled desire to try my hand at producing liquid notes in harmonious sequence. I say well-con- trolled because I am fully aware of my own short- comings. I struggle desperately against the over- powering urge to make music. It avails me naught. Eventually my better judgment fails me, and I am swept away on a surge of ambitious and rash emotion. I must give voice to my fevered soul! Long ago I came to the conclusion that my family and immediate circle of friends are not properly ap- preciative of my cracked baritone. I do not harbor resentment against them because of this, I know what struggles Nelson Eddy and Lawrence Tibbett encoun- tered in the early stages of their careers. But tempo- rarily, at least, I have been forced by popular demand to bend my talents in another direction. And so I turn to my harmonica. It has been said that man's best friend is his dog, or perhaps the horse, or even his wife. But I rise to pro- test this point. A dog may turn on his master and bite him. Does the harmonica? Never. A horse may throw his master to the ground and inflict serious in- jury. Will the harmonica? Never. A wife may burn the toast, or open cans of fruit with her master's razor. Wouldqthe harmonica? Definitely, never. Thus it is that, at those times when my heart and soul are consumed with the urge to make music, I re- tire to my room, remove my shoes and place my feet on my desk, polish up my old harmonica, and hold deep communion with my soul. There is a certain spiritual outlet for me in my music, such as it is, comparable to the effects of prayer or fasting. Earthly cares fall away from me, cynicism brought about by contact with this mortal world leaves meg I have new vision, new hope, new faith. My repertoire, definitely limited, is of such a size that playing it completely through takes the better part of half or three-quarters of an hour. Occasionaly I am able to master a new composition and thus grad- ually augment my list of selections. From my simple opening number-Hinkey Dinkey Purley Vous-on through Frankie and Iobnny, Red Wing, Wabash Blues, Humoresque, and all the rest-to the final im- posing rendition of Massa's in de Cold, Cold Ground- I play steadily, loudly, 'and absorbedly, literally inter- mixing trills, tremolos, brilliant runs, crescendo effects, and labored breathing. And when at last I emerge from my solitary soul- purging, tired physically, it may be true, I am renewed mentally and spiritually. Perhaps I am glassy of eye and short of breath, strange bells and echoes may ring in my ears, but I am most assuredly-A BETTER MAN! -N.

On Your Absence The world is strangely empty and the house is strangely still, The window box you watched o'er is barren on the sill. The hall clock's tick is muHled,' and my heart is muffled, too, No sound is heard within the house-yet all there speaks of you. The breakfast nook and kitchenette, the roses on the wall, The willow shoots you planted are now grown straight and tall. And yet when sunset's slanting rays light up your window pane, The willows seem to bow their heads in sudden, lonely pain. Each picket in the fence keeps ever watchful vigilance, Each flagstone in the walk awaits your shyly downcast glance. The reason for your absence I know they'll never learn- I cannot bring myself to tell them that you will not return. The dog lies still upon the hearth-can it be that skies were blue? That world and house were once alive with the loveliness of you? ' And now the world is empty and the blue skies turned to gray, And my heart is dead becausebecause you've gone away.

Woodward Phone 65 -50- KConlinued from Page 441 Half a mile away a stranger to Paramecium Pie- waddie, but an old friend of ours, Spirogyra Wimpfen- Figgens, was tramping through the trees, leaving his footprints on the mud of Australia. This is where eohiccups should hang out if they hang out anywhere, he muttered, savagely chewing up his all-day sucker. I'll hide in the brush a while and see if one doesn't come along pretty soon. So, clambering in among the foliage surrounding the clear- ing in the bush, he watched with his beady eyes for the coming of the eobiccup. Professor Piewaddie faltered. He had come far without seeing any sign of a parallelo-biped. Suddenly he became tense. His nose quivered with ecstasy. There on the ground before him in the mud were un- mistakably the footprints of a two-legged creature. Surely it could be none other than the one he was seek- ing. Making his way slowly through the bush, he fol- lowed the tracks, hiccuping all the while, until he came to a clearing. There he paused, gazed at the tracks on the ground, gave a few little hics of delight, and scur- ried into the brush surrounding the clearing to wait until the beast he was seeking returned. As Spirogyra Wimpfen-Figgens sat munching some shredded whiscuit, he saw a strange creature enter the clearing. Its frame was wracked with hiccups as it studied his footprints on the ground. Suddenly, as though frightened by his strange scent it bounded through the clearing and into the wilds beyond it. Very clearly this was an eobiccup. He would go back to his camp to get ready a trap. Then tonight he would come back and lie in ambush for the timid beast. So, thinking of plans for the cunning trap, he left his hiding place and retraced his steps back to camp. Paramecium Piewaddie had waited but a few min- utes in his hiding place before the object of his quest came slowly out of the vegetation on the other side of the clearing. Subconsciously he wondered at the strik- ing similarity the tara avis bore to a human being. It seemed to be thinking deeply as it wended its way back whence it had come. Then, leaving his own hiding place, Paramecium trudged back to camp, making plans to return that night and lie in ambush to capture his quarry. In a tree above a clearing in the bush, Guava Paste lay, drowzily wondering if there really was such a thing as a grooval. Lying there he looked into the clearing below. Suddenly, a strange animal came into it. It looked around, then hid on one side. Soon came another animal, making strange sounds, studying the tracks of the first one. It darted to cover on the other side of the clearing. A few minutes later the first one CCon!inned on Page 1021 CAMP CHIPPEWA TRAIL for GIRLS Miss Lena Morgan, 6I3 S. Jackson SI., Jackson, Mich.

You probably think it's about time I get a chance to say something here. Well, it is. The staE, however, advised me to write about Baldwin. Said after all I was a symbol around here and should know a lot of interesting things. Well, frankly, I thought and thought on what to write about, and just no inspiration appeared. So final- ly at my wit's end, I decided that I'd just jot down a few facts out of my notebook. So I'll turn statistician, crack my notebook, and let a few float into print. Eight hundred students, both junior and senior high, daily cram Baldwin's 35 class rooms . . . There are 250 doors in the building, all but a few being opened and closed every day . . . There are 70 clocks, worked from a master-timekeeper in the omce . . . Now, let's take a swing down the hall . . . 70 hall guards are on duty throughout the day . . .

Timm Rain in the City The leaden sky and thick, lifeless clouds Make union with smoke and dust that rise From darkened city streets. The pall enshrouds All mankind. Were there ever blue skies? There might have been. But now the rain Is loosed from them in great gray strips That beat like lance tips on the window pane And run in sordid puddles down the streets. Great blocks of grimy stone are coursed With wet mud streaks. The people below, Rolling stones in a man-made canyon, are forced To seek a hasty shelter 'gainst the blow. The storm clouds cease their rumbled mutter, The city's spawn again take up a tinsel dream. QKQ Black water rushes madly down the gutter, A match box bobs its head upon the stream.

Briefly the morning paper told of his passing and of his work on the police force in the last year and ex- plained that the incentive for suicide was poor health. However, since I have known Steve for some time, I wish to believe it was something more. Steve had always lived in the big city. Since he was barely able to talk, his one ambition was to be a police- man. As years passed, this idea was always uppermost in his mind. He did not want to be just any police- man. He wanted to patrol a beat, make friends with the kids, and be an aid and friend to all in the neigh- borhood. A Question Honor When Steve came of age he applied for a position on the force. At first he was refused, but he was not discouraged. When he was accepted, he was put on a beat in a lonely part of the city. He worked diligently and soon received a promotion which took him to a more populous district. Contentedly he patroled his beat, made friends with all the kids, and won the re- spect of all for the fine young man that he was. One day while Steve was going about his duties, he was hit by a car. The driver had lost control when he swerved to miss a dog. For several weeks, Steve hung between life and death. But he never gave up, and he gradually began to improve. It was not long before he was able to leave the hospital. But Steve had not gone through the experience with- out a mishap. He had to have his right arm ampu- tated. When he had sufficiently recovered to return to his job, he reported to his chief but found there was no position for him. The chief explained that because of the loss of his arm he couldn't be put back on the beat again. After a great deal of pleading, Steve suc- ceeded in persuading the chief to let him take a corner near a school where he could help the children across the street, confident that he could make good in spite of his infirmity. And he did make good. He soon knew all the kids' names and greeted them cheerfully as they came to and from school. They all liked him, and he enjoyed his job. Yesterday as Steve gave the okay for Billy Myers to cross the street, a car came whipping around the cor- ner. Sensing the danger, he made a lunge for Billy -to snatch him from the path of the car. His action, al- though in time, was of no avail. On the impulse, only the stump of an amputated arm moved. Billy was dead when they picked him up halfway down the block, and big-hearted Steve felt that he was to blame. He couldn't reconcile himself to anything but a life of service. Steve shot himself last night. -B.

Yes, Indeed! RE YOU a yes-man? Do you stammer about and invariably answer yes to every question? On my own initiative I have made a study of yes- men about school. Seventy-seven per cent of us are just uhm-hm-men or semi-coma acquiescers. This stage of yessing is still curable, but unless taken in time may become chronic. Following is a conversa- tion between two semi-coma acquiescers: Hi, one of them says lackadaisically. Are you going to church? Uhmhm, yawns the other, not even realizing that he is talking. fThe reader will note that this bored, don't-give-a-darn attitude is one of the first and major symptoms of an uhmhm-man.j Then, still unconscious, the two fellows amble to church. Think how embarrassing it might be if vic- tim number one said jail instead of. church ! Vic- tim number two would have gone along just the same and gotten the family escutcheon all stained. The I'll-say period, or more specifically, the You-said-a-mouthful stage is next. When a person gets to be this much of a yes-man, all his former ennui lea'ves him, and he becomes full of artificial vigor. He forces himself to keep his spirits up and chirp agree- able answers to every question. The other day I was talking to a boy who used to be a fine chap before this thing got him. The minute I saw him I knew by the glassy look in his left eye and the crooked way he smiled, revealing his molars, that he was stricken. I usually hate taking advantage of my friends by making human guinea pigs of them, but I steeled myself and remembered it was all for science. Hello, I said. Wasn't the English test awful? Gee, I'll say, he answered spontaneously. But then again, it was comparatively simple, I countered. QThis was the supreme test.j You said a mouthful! said my friend. Obviously he was about to launch into the really treacherous no-phobia or simple-yes stage, in which the patient merely answers yes to everything. Now, are there any questions? Don't I think this is going a bit too far, you ask? Yes, I certainly do! -Joan Campbell I DISTIUCTIVG Etibwew GCD ALLH CDCCASIOVWS in ui in in bln!-l-bln LLLLLLL l-If-Fl DY 0 0 ' f'CDDQT6-il' GISHGIZ BLDG.

By this I do not mean that a gang- ster movie will throw me into a swoon, nor .even that I scream and grow faint at the sight of blood. However, I am afraid I am definitely not rugged. It isn't that I haven't tried, either. Many are the brave, tooth-gritting attempts I have made to pick up a snake, laughing nonchalantly, as I repeat to myself, It's just a little animal like everybody else, in fact, it is rather cute in a slimy sort of way, isn't it? Brr! and I am forced to back hastily away, wondering if I can ever hear the'word' snake again without feeling slightly ill. I am frankly terrified by worms, and I don't think mice are the least bit cute. It's even worse with spi- ders. The very name of the little demons does some- thing to me. Spiders, Ugh! Can you imagine a more appropriate word for the nasty, stringy, shivers- senders-up-the-back? The mere sight of one can turn me into a nervous wreck, though I am aware that it is a Sissy probably a sign of something very disagreeable in my character. Another thing about which I am a sissy is taking long, healfthful, deep-breathing walks in the country -and especially if I am not dressed for it. Just as I am getting into the spirit of the thing and am begin- ning a nice communion with nature, something flicks up from the ground in a sneaky manner, and makes lace of my new two-thread chiffons. If I con- tinue to stride along, I am very likely to be forced to come to terms with a slaughterous barbed-wire fenceg or I may step into a hole which the animals of the region have cleverly concealed with grass so that I may have the fun of turning my ankle. Perhaps someday I will overcome my aversion to some of the things which keep me from being an out- door girlg but I won't particularly mind if I don't. I wouldn't want to pick up a snake, anyway. -F.

There you are in the big, bad city tasting life in the raw, yet you write home like all the other spineless, excitingless so-and-so's, because it built you up to an awful letdown. Maybe it did. But why did you let it? Wasn't it because you arrived with the impression that the world was bowed at your feet, that you'd smile and mow 'em down? Now you're disillusioned because you didn't dazzle seven million people. Don't let me discourage you further, but you've only been there a year. Rome wasn't built in a day, but it wasn't built in twelve months, either. fI'm not sporting gray hair and specsg so don't take this brain child too seriously.J You were about fourteen when you graduated from grade school and gloried in the worshipful glances of the insignificant kids who had a few more years to go. Then you entered high school to slay the entire stu- dent body with your Look-who-I-am attitude. But you didn't. You had the wind knocked out of your sails instead. Three years later you graduated.from that institu- tion of learning. Qkemember when you dropped your diploma in front of the assembly and then tripped on your dress and almost did a back-flip trying to pick it up?j Where was I? Oh, yes. When you graduated from high school your sense of greatness had returned, and you set forth to make your first million in a month. You didn't-again you were deflated. Would you say education built you up to an awful let down? I'd rather call it something like the stupid- ity of inexperiencen and let it go at that. What if your ship hasn't come in yet? Don't sit back and wait for it. Change the tide and make it come in. Anyway, why get discouraged? You can't buy the best things in life with money.

She applies the pressure to me gradually, dropping the first of a series of delicate hints early in the week. Norman, she says, coyly but firmly, either you are going to clean the basement Saturday or you are not going to get the car for a month! Mother does not have to tell me some things more than four or five times before I realize that she is quite serious about them. I begin to understand along about the middle of the week that I might actually have to clean the basement on Saturday. And being an old hand at this game, I try to lay my plans accordingly. Mother is also an old hand at this game. So between Monday and Saturday, I am able to make no telephone calls without Mother standing by and immediately vetoing anything that includes the word Saturday. A mothef's trust is a beautiful thing. By Friday night the situation has become acute, and I have become desperate. Mother has blocked me at every turn, playing her trump card-my use of the car-on an average of three times a day. I see only one .hope left for me. If I should stay out quite late this Friday night, perhaps Mother upon seeing my utter exhaustion on Saturday morning will not haveuthe heart to rout me out of bediand down into the base- ment. I resolve to stake my all on this card. Thus it is that having taken my leave of the family early Fri- day evening, I tiptoe cautiously in late Friday night. Bright and early Saturday morning, at an hour when only chickens and farmers should be rising, Mother bustles into my room, flings wide the curtains, throws back the covers, exposing my chest to the dewy morn- ing air and my eyes to the repulsively golden sunshine, and roars in a cheery good-morning voice, Get out of bed, you lazy sinner! That basement is going to be cleaned today, and you might as well start now. I'm not going to wait breakfast for you! It is the last shot that strikes home. Sleep for me now is out of the question.

Bleary-eyed, brain-befogged, I stag- ger out of bed and crawl into my shirt and pants. Wearily, with a minimum of effort, I weave my way downstairs. Completely exhausted, I collapse in my chair at the breakfast table. A lone piece of burned toast, left as mute evidence of the fact that breakfast has been served, is abruptly swept out from under my nose, and I am left to con- template the shiny waxed surface of the bare table. Gradually the thought simmers through my conscious- ness-my near unconsciousness-that Mother did not wait breakfast for me. Efficiency is the keynote of our household. A slight blank follows this incident. This blank may be attributed to lack of sleep or to lack of nourish- ment, or partly to each. At any rate, my next sen- sation is that of flying through the air, soaring as it were. I will not say that Mother fbrcw me down the basement stairs. Nor will I say that she pushed me down them. Let it suffice to say that Mother encour- aged me to go down into the basement and get to work. The technique of cleaning a basement is this: I seat myself on the bottom step of the stairs and survey the lay of the land. This is wise because an undertaking such as this requires much thought and planning be- forehand. I must not take any hasty action. One does not go at cleaning a basement haphazardly. The first thought that strikes me is that it is a very large basement. Oddly enough, my first conclusion has always been that it is a very large basement. I decide that with Mother in such a get-things-done-in-m hurry mood, I had better not wait, at least not today, for the basement to get any smaller. So I set to work mentally to divide the territory to be cleaned into squares. Then I estimate how many strokes of a broom will be necessary to sweep each square. Take that corner, for instance. By shifting the box resting there so that its short end faces me, I can cover up fully one-third of the square. Then I will turn the ironing board so that one of its legs rests partially in the upper third of the square. Two-thirds cleaned all ready, and the other third wasn't dirty anyway. S0 why bother with that part of the basement? Finally I add up the number of strokes required for each square and arrive at a minimum total of sixteen Qalila.

Suppose I cleaned it seven times a week? Or suppose we had seven basements? Seven times seven is fifty-four, times three hundred and sixty-five days in a year is-why, I'm nothing more than a mere slave around this house Who does she think she is, working me this way? Figures don't lie, and when I present these to her, she'll surely have to bow to my superior intelligence this once! And then I remember how many times in the past Mother has proved that my air-tight arguments won't hold water. I wake myself up and vow that now or never is the time when I must actually get down to real, hard, manual labor. I crawl over to the corner where I have made up my mind to vbegin. What is this? A gold- mine in our basement? No, it's only a pile of old magazines, saved for the rag-man. Well, here is a splendid starting point. I shall weed out the unwanted magazines and throw them away. A magnificent project. But obviously I must not throw away any that might be used at some future time. I must carefully choose which shall be saved and which shall be dis- carded. And the only safe way of doing this, of course, is to read each one through from cover to cover. I must be thorough or nothing. Mother will be proud of me . . . When the friend whom I had previously arranged to have call for me at ten o'clock Saturday so that I might have an excuse to avoid cleaning the basement knocks at the door at the appointed time and is admitted to the basement, he finds me blissfully immersed in a pre-war serial entitled, Heaven Will Protect the Working Girl. With his assistance I am able to negotiate the stairs and to get out of the house before Mother finds that I am gone. She will never discover my deceit because she only goes down in the basement once a week to hang freshly- washed clothes. Perhaps she will read this essay and thus know the awful truth. But I don't care. When I grow up, I'm going to live in a flat. -N. Lyle QXE Classroom boner-The Colossus of Rhodes is a super- highway which has no speed limit.

Each starts out mildly with state- ments concerning the other's stupidity and ignoranceg if the throng allows it to continue, they hurl back and forth insults directed at each other's families and friends, race and religion, or anything else that comes into their minds. When any of the people grow tired of the radical's arguments, they push their way toward the edge of the crowd in search of a new and more interesting speaker. A few of these may stop to listen to an ardent British subject as he heaps praises upon the British Foreign Office for the excellent bit of work it did in regard to that last international crisis. At the edge of the walk is a white-haired old man, telling all those who may care to listen how the world can free itself from the yoke of war and bloodshed which has been around its neck since it was created. All it would have to do, he says, is follow the simple rules he has just discovered after years of research and painstaking efforts. The assembly usually listening to this type of speaker is composed of women who feel it their obligation to save civilization from destruction. QTheir husbands are probably over at the Communist's meeting listening to the speech advocating revolution for the working classes.j On a platform a hundred feet down the path stands a man who appears to be a hard-working farmer just in from the country after a hard day's work. As he addresses the gathering, it is evident that he has a mouthful of broken, crooked teeth, yellow with tobac- co stains. His hair is snarled and unkemptg he is not dressed very neatly. He strongly avows that he is an atheist, declaring the Bible full of nonsense and prayer useless. He knows he has never received any help from God yet. From the grinning countenances of the peo- ple as they listen to him, one realizes that they don't really agree with what's being saidg but they receive a lot of enjoyment from the talk. In gatherings like these there is bound to be at least one humorous speaker. A new arrival at the meetings can immediately locate this type-he is the one sur- rounded by the greatest number of people. One hu- morous speaker who appears in Hyde Park nearly every Sunday is a negro who, claims to be an African prince. He has resided in London for the past twenty years. He gives his profession as selling tips on horse races, when I am not making a speech. With two colored feathers in a headband and a Union Jack in each hand, he is supposed to be defend- ing the Jews. In order to get in a good joke and to make the crowd laugh this fellow wanders 05 his sub- ject deliberately. He is remarkably good at it, too. No one knows how he brings it up, but suddenly he is telling the English women present that they don't know how to get their mam that, if they would only use the medozulla the native African women SUMNER MOTOR SALES BUICK LE AND SERVICE is 2355 Bac bw -QQ W9 464 s. woonwann H- PHoN 12 F7 'Cl - N Els. 69- ' use, they will get him every time. The people seem to like this kind of speaker and do not tire of him, and they will listen to him as long as he will continue talking. This is a typical cross-section of the speakers and subjects of the speeches that are found in Hyde Park. To an American. who believes he comes from a coun- try where there is considerable freedom of speech, this spectacle of such unrestrained freedom is intensely in- teresting as well as somewhat bewildering. The first time he attends one of these demonstrations, he usually remains from early in the afternoon until ten o'clock in the evening, even forgetting his dinner because of the attraction. -B.

PHONE I89I The Great Astra HE THREE RINGS appeared distorted through the haze of smoke and foul air in the great tent. Five thousand people, young and old, gasped and laughed at paint-smeared performers. But in a nearby tent, unconscious of the slice of humanity close by, stood Astra and Tromby. Astra was the star of the show. Astra swung from a chromi- um bar sixty feet in the air. No net was waiting to catch her, if she should fall. It had taken her years to gain conhdence, but now she had conquered one of her greatest fears-performing without a net. The other fear was cramps. Astra had lost a sister who suffered a cramp while on the high wire. A cramp in Astra's tiny hand, or even a finger, would send her hurtling to the sawdust ring below. They were calling her now for her last show. Trom- by was taking her away. Away to Switzerland to be married. Yes, Astra would give them a show tonight. But she must hurry. Before going out the door she scooped cold cream from a bottle labeled Actors' Facial Supplies and dabbed it on her face. As she was pulled to the top of the cent, she noticed how sultry and hot the air was. How she hated these conditions! Now she was on the safety platform. She wiped her forehead. Her face cream was running. She leaped for the bar. Around and around she swung. The crowd gasped. Her left hand, wet with the cream from her face, slipped. Her small body wrenched sidewise, then plummeted into the center of the shocked crowd. Tromby lifted her broken body from the sawdust. The morning newspapers told of the death of the great Astra, of how she had had a cramp in her arm, in the middle of her act. Yes, presses roared with that story, but no one knew of how she had slipped to her death because of a little face cream. Yes, it was ironic. For you see, Tromby was owner of the Actors' Facial Supplies Company. -B.

People, mostly the very young or the very old, think that they are cunning. I think-fBeing an older sister to small fry who are greatly influenced by these fiends, have I not the right to think?j-that they are just a lot of foul balls liter- ally thrown at American audiences. They are publi- cized as being unspoiled darlings who are always giving their poor, unfortunate stand-ins their favorite rabbit of which they already have too many. But even if they are only one-quarter as insidious as I make them out to be, they will still continue to bite soundly in the stomach all visitors to the set. That is, providing their teeth are their own. Usually, as they are growing out of the little fat legs stage into the awkward stage, they grow out of their little white teeth. Some kindly studio dentist makes them a plate fwhich causes that adorable lisp!j and the brats cheer- fully gag through their lines. The show must go on, you know! As the years go by the curly-headed moppets, like the rest of us, grow up. Mothers tear their hair, and fathers become frantic.

Snooksie's mama will always tell you that she is really deep down in heart, teddibly happy that her treasure is growing up. She wants to take her away from Hollywood the Sordid and put her in a charming little French convent. Well, don't let her fool you, buddy. Deep down in her heart she's scared to death. Afraid of the juggling acts and little theaters in Kansas that were so much a part of papa's and her own earlier days. Snooksie Wboksie and the ever-present Curly Simple are soon eclipsed by that inevitable adolescent with the mature voice. She doesn't look a day over twelve, my deah, and you would never guess that she was just fourteen her last birthday. The last one she counted! This not-so-rare specimen is the gushing child whose doting female parent was badly frightened by Peter Pan. She scurries about the screen busily making the world a happier place by her songs and acting disgust- ingly jeune fille. Her name is always an awe-inspiring one like Banana Turbanf' Ugh!

A quiet evening breeze brought back sweet memories of a spring night, an orchestra playing in the background and the one girl in his arms. Hell-he must keep those things crowded into the back of his mind. Not too far back, but not in the light. He had to reach. the gate before sundown. Tomor- row his disguise as a broken down old hag might not pass the scrutinizing eyes of the guards. Tomorrow would mean another day before he could have her back in' his arms. His gait quickened. He could already feel the breeze and almost hear the orchestra. But she was not in his arms. Try as he would, he could not imagine the messy, old split-cain basket being the One. The gate-he must reach the gate. Not too fast now. Careful, not too anxious. Take it easy. It will be soon enough. He is passing through the' gate just before it closes. Ah-he is through. Don't run, don't run. Why not? The wig is falling OE. Suddenly he feels her in his arms. The machine guns, sticking their ugly snouts from the grey walls, break the still air with harsh barkings. The sun seems to linger a little longer to see it all and then hides its face behind the horizon to shut out the sight. Never again will he hear the soft music or feel the light breeze, but he will always have Her in his arms. -C. Bennett. Public Enemy URING most of the class discussion he takes no part. He seems to be thinking of nothing in particular But let anyone use a word that he can easily transform into a pun, and he immediately springs to life. Without waiting for recognition from the teacher, he drops his brain child into the midst of the group. Most of his attempts are feeble, but he can never see this. Sometimes the class can discourage these out- burstsg many times it doesn't succeed. Then the vic- tims simply suffer in silence, abiding their time until the mental marvel sees his efforts being wasted. -B. Averill.

Yes, we had terrible winters in those days. As Pa finished the same story for about the hun- dredth time, a terrible thought struck me. It did not concern the awe-inspiring tale which my father had just told. Rather, a question arose in my mind as to what I was going to be able to tellmy offspring which would make my personal stock soar in their eyes. Surely I couldn't 'tell them of getting up at eight o'clock and of the long tramp of three blocks to school. The impression made is obvious. They could even prove that cranking the- family car to take me all that way was much before my time. Even the idea of my working so hard after getting to school would hardly go over because probably by that time the P. T. A. would have had all work in school abolished and my kids wouldn't know what homework was. I might narrate on the difficulties I had in getting and holding my women, but they would probably derive the idea that I was not the heart-breaker that I really was. May- be I could tell them that-. No, not even that would go over. I guess that my only opening would be the late hours that I kept on school nights and the early hours on the week-ends. But even that might fall flat, for by that time sleeping may be proved unhealthful and old-fashioned. If this happens, I can see only one way out. By staying single, my worries are needless. --R.

Sci- entists have spent years of toil in search of this mysterious creature. Every so often the papers report that some unknown scientist has a line on the link, but it has always turned out to be a false statement. At last an expedition was fitted out to try to find the Missing Link to interview him for The Piper. Finally, the searchers were so close to the Link that they decided to send a messenger ahead to get the story. Straws were drawn, and I won. I entered the presence of the Link. He voiced a low, melancholy wail. There he sat on a one-legged stool placidly writing reams of ghost stories. His manner- isms were much the same as those of a human being in that he threw papers all around and chewed the ends off his pencils. As he seemed to be a fellow journalist, I asked him why he was writing these hair-raisers. He When asked if he would like to appear on a program at Baldwin High School, the Link answered with a co- quettish roll of his eyes, Most students act more like the missing link than I do. This sounded like No. When were you first missed? I asked. I was living in the Lost Continent of Atlantis when I was left out of the 1500 B. C. census, he replied, and have been among the missing ever since. The whole trouble started when two men were sent to put my name on the list. It turned out that it was on the list twice, and each of the men hastened to correct his mistake. Both crossed my name off. This left my name out of the census. I beg to leave you, said the Link, for I hear an- other scientist coming. He was gone! -J. P. Buckeridge. - QJQ groaned, These sheets of prose help me in my spare time work.

THREE SCHOOLS IN DETROIT AND ONE IN SAGINAW -35.- Date Doin's ATE doin's begins at what is termed the teen age, starting at the tender age of twelve or thirteen when Bill is informed by his fond and loving parents fBill has doubts about thisj that he is escorting .little Connie Somebody to Miss Fricken- weller's Friday evening dancing class. This is usually sprung on him at the last minute so he hasn't time to develop fits, pneumonia, appendicitis, or anything serious. . After being dressed up like a regular sissy, very much against his will, he pulls the old stand-by, croup, which has always scared his folks stiff. It's working! He be- gins to relax until he sees his mother approaching with a sinister-looking bottle. It's remarkable how quickly he recovers. Father calls that he's brought the car around and for Pete's sake will Willie please hurry up? He's getting worse than his mother! The reluctant son comes slowly out Qhoping he'll break a leg on the wayj and slumps into the back seat. He is scrubbed and brushed within an inch of his life. By the time they arrive at this Connie's house, he is in the depths of despair. He gives the doorbell a mighty jab. Maybe she got the measles or mumps all of a sudden. He brightens at the prospect, but his hopes are shattered as the door is flung open and a small bunch of femininity descends upon him. Arriving at their destination, Father remarks that he'll call for them at eleven and leaves with a parting grin. Bill grabs Connie by the arm and gives her a shove through the door so that she fairly explodes into the lobby. Girls! Why did he have to know any girls? One was as good as another-good for nothing. He takes his time getting into the ballroom, vainly trying to think of some last minute excuse to get out of this nightmare. He feels himself beginning to sink as the music starts. He is completely sunk when he finds he is framed to dance the first dance with Connie. Some- how he manages to drag through it. He gets a good grip on a bow-thing on the back of her dress which sure makes a swell steering gear.

Time: Four years later. Oh, I'm feelin' like a million. A rather cracked baritone issued from the shower. I've got a date with an angel. The door flies open as Bill sprints for his room. Mom, oh Mom, did you get my pants back from the cleaners? Receiving a satisfactory answer that they are on his bed, he dresses in haste. Whew, nine o'clockl And I promised Connie I'd be on time tonight! Con- nie, what a girl! And is she a snooky dancer! Feelin' like a million. Say, Mom, did you order those flowers? Darn this tie! What? No! I said gardenias! Sweet Peas, he mutters to himself. You'd think she was a baby. He reaches for his tux coat and gazes at his reflection. Hmm, not bad, not bad at all. He makes the stairs in three jumps. Dad, where's the car key? Say, Dad. fThis is spoken coniidentiallyj, how about a little extra, huh? It's an extra super date. Gee, tlianks, pal! With this he grabs his overcoat, yells goodby, and slams the door before either father or mother can open A up on the time-to-get-in sermon. Upon reaching Connie's, he touches the bell lightly and talks congenially with her parents. Not that he particularly enjoys this, but Bill's policy is kept up on the family angle. Connie practically trips coming down the stairs. Wow, now there's a definitely devas- tating dame. Wait till the stag line sees this! As they arrive at the dance, Bill fairly runs a relay to get on the floor. The orchestra is thumping out rhythm. And Connie! Is she coming through, or is she coming through! -R. Medbury.

ELL, dear, it's all over. You're satisfied, I'm happy, your parents are glad-that makes it almost unanimous. Think back, darling. If I can stand it, you certainly can. Don't you think it would annoy you some to find shaving cream carefully transferred into the tooth- paste container? I often wondered how you accom- plished it. I don't suppose I'll ever know now. Of course, the hairbrush scared me the first time I found it in my bed. The third time, it was exceptionally irritating. It shows perseverance, I will say that. Every time I see a hairbrush, I think of you. Your ingenuity is something your mother told me you had, but I never believed it. Mothers are likely to exaggerate. I remember how many times you placed the salt in the sugar bowl and just how many times I spoiled a good cup of coffee.. Really, darling, aren't you getting a little old for that sort of thing? , The straw that broke the camel's back, came when I allowed you to demonstrate your culinary art in the preparation of something you called Banana Surprise. That was my worst mistake. You looked so adorable and silly in that apron and your hair in your eyes. I wanted to hug you. I thought, What a cute story to tell mother. Enough of that. Banana Surprise camo on the table and I found my mouth watering. The crust of cinnamon and brown sugar on top got me. Then to bite into it and find it filled with cotton. Oh, darling, wasn't that car- rying it just a little too far? Well, it's over and you have gone home to mother. Usually it's the other way around. I hope you're happy and that there were some parts of your life with me that you enjoyed. I do hope your parents are well and get a kick out of you, but not the same brand I received when I bent over to pick up something I dropped. Your Aunt, --K. Wygant. HARPUR, Inc.

Maple Ave 28 3 Brownell Phone 2020 The Muddy Footprints AVE YOU ever had the horror of a situation dawn on you long after the thing happened? I have and I don't think I'll ever get over it. I've never told anyone this story for fear he'd think me over-imaginative, but judge for yourself. It happened one night last spring. My windows were wide open when I went to bed, and as I looked out my window, the stars were all reflected in the pools of water on the ground left by the afternoon's rain. I woke up in the middle of the night and looked at the clock by my bed. It was exactly three A. M. As I closed my eyes to resume my slumbers, I felt a very uneasy sensation. I felt as though there were someone in the corner of the room behind me, staring at my back. It was a weird feeling, but I dismissed it from my mind as the effect of eating too many indigestible things before retiring, and went back to sleep. The next morning was superb. All the trees had on new green lace dresses jeweled with thousands of tiny diamonds from yesterday's rain. It was the sort of morning that makes one feel that to be merely alive is unspeakably wonderful. On the front page of the paper that day was related in great headlines and gory details how the police had slain the Tiger Killer in a mad chase the night before. There had .been a great deal in the papers about this case lately. The man was a maniac. No one knew quite why he made his killings. They seemed to have no connection with each other. He lived in a world of his own creation, and his imagination evidently pro- vided sufficient reason to his crazed mind for the mur- ders that had so shocked the district. He was called Tiger Killer for his stealthiness and horribly barbaric manner of killing his victims. He had been in a padded cell and straight jacket in the best guarded of institu- tions, but he had escaped-God knows how. And now the poor demented creature was dead. Of course, it was just. He had unmercifully killed several other people. But my heart welled with pity for any- thing that was dead on a day like this. LANCASTER HILLS GOLF COURSE- Sporty, kept in the finest condition.

Why pay more for a second grade milk, when you can buy the beat at a Johnson Milk Depot for Sc per quart. We have only one grade-the natural milk-exactly as produced by the cowg nothing added, nothing taken from the milk as produced by the cow. F The killing had occurred at 4:45 that morning in a swamp a few miles from where we lived. The chase had been a close one. Only, for a little while in the morn- ing, from 2:45 to 3:30 he had managed to elude his pursuers entirely. The police believed that he had found a garage or house door open and had hidden until he thought they had abandoned the chase. Then I remembered what had happened the night before,-that peculiar feeling of someone staring at me. I went up to my room and sat on my bed. From 2:45 to 3:30 his whereabouts had been unknown, un- less-! An open window would do as well as a door if one had a ladder. We had a painter's ladder outside ready for use as soon as the weather was right. I looked at the floor in the corner. There were two faint muddy footprints, as though somebody had stood there for a long time .... -A. Lambie. QJQ Pve Got My Heart Set On You ............

IBIQOWNELL DHOTO' LITHOGDADH COMPANY 9751 E. JEFFERSON AVE. PHONE: FITZROY 4635 DETROIT, MICHIGAN On I-Iirsute Adornment T IS my firm belief that sooner or later the meekest of men, the most confirmed mouse, will be strongly moved by the urge to express his masculinity. Moved, in fact, to the point of satisfying this urge by some wild flight of fancy that will indubitably surprise and even shock the most blase of observers. The gratification of this desire may be in the wearing of a particularly loud bow tie, or in going hatless for a day, or in eating dill pickles and strawberry ice cream before retiring. The action is always peculiarly unsuited to the man. In my case, I grew, or rather cultivated, a moustache. There is a true joy for me in watching things grow. In the early spring I delight in getting close to nature and seeing the little green things push their way through the soil to the surface and sunlight. I love to run my fingers through the grass and rich black loam. I long to help the little green things in their struggle, to nourish and aid and cultivate them. At one time or another, every man is master of a little plot of ground which he can call his own. Mine happens to be on my upper lip. What was more natural than I should grow a moustache? I at once satisfied two desires: I expressed, or perhaps defiantly asserted, my masculinity, and I had the thrill of cultivating something alive and growing. The process was simple. When I shaved, I merely neglectd to drag the razor over that portion of my face immediately beneath my nose. Nature did the rest. True, I diligently combed and brushed the growth each night, but I modestly decline any further credit. Results were not immediately forthcoming. It was some days before the first faint shadow made its blush- ing appearance. Stirred to the quick, I studied it in the mirror. Alas! it was blond! Only one who has long anticipated a hardy red growth, or a sturdily mas- culine black brush, or even a distinguished iron-gray affair, can appreciate the anguish of soul that was mine. But I persevered. I was not thus easily swayed from my true course.

De- spite its strawlike texture and extreme youth, it was a respectable moustache, one not lightly passed over. And in due course of time, I dropped the habit of low- ering my head and slinking humbly past people. I threw my stomach out, my head back, and bared my ornamented countenance to the world. I repeat, I was proud of it. In my mind's eye as I walked down the hall, hordes of women threw themselves at my feet. Actually, my little six-year-old sister was impressed to some extent. Also, my mother looked up unguardedly at my face one day at the dinner table, and choked on a piece of asparagus .... I bow my head in shame as I recall how I came about disposing of my beautiful little moustache. It was simply a case of fickleness on my part. Like a child with a new plaything, I tired of it, and took the easiest way out. I shaved it off. Oh, most vacillating of creaturesli Oh, most weak of will and indecisive of mind! To destroy so abruptly and coolly the result of three weeks' time and care! Oh, judgment, thou art fled to brutish beasts, and men have lost their reason! Semper idem. --N. Lyle.

HORNUNG WASHERS Fisher Building CConIim1ed from Page SQ hung useless at my side and I had to retire from the game. I pitched for Baltimore the next year, but I wasn't much good. I completed my baseball career umpiring two years in the American Association, and I have never pitched ball since. Q We wondered about the records which Mr. Gold- smith had established and how they had stood up through the intervening years. I hold several records which are still standing today. I have already mentioned a few, but I forgot to tell you about my long distance throwing record. While I was still with Tecumseh, the league held a distance throw- ing contest. I threw a baseball 131 yards, two feet, nine inches, a record which has never been duplicated. Did the other pitchers soon pick up your delivery and use it against you? we asked. Not at first. I had a monopoly for five or six years. Meantime, I had developed several other kinds of curves, including the drop. What do you think of the game today compared with baseball when Chicago was the World Cham- pion? we queried, hoping not to set off a touchy subject. 'Chicago in 1882 could have beaten any team which is organized today. The players were better and tougher. I have never seen a ball player who could measure up to King Kelly in his prime. In those days, the ball players had to be tough. They played without gloves, and catchers had broken and deformed hands for life. As for the game itself, there isn't much differ- ence. From appearance and feel, the ball is very much the same. The rules have changed very little, and we played the same number of games in a season that mod- ern teams play. Did you ever play any other position besides on the mound? Oh, I played a little first base, but I wasn't very good at bat, so I did most of my playing as a pitcher. My lifetime average was around .3003 pretty fair for today's game, but it was low for the 1880's. But then that isn't the only change that has taken place. In my heyday, I was paid only 5,000 dollars a year, a wonder- ful salary for an early ball player but not like today's. As we prepared to leave, Mr. Goldsmith brought out a leather folder which he opened. Inside was a solid silver plate, given to him to honor his life of service in professional baseball. It was a life pass to any ball game in the major leagues. As we made our way to the door, our attention was drawn to the pictures on the wall. They were paintings done by Mr. Goldsmith as a diver- sion in his later years. We could not help pausing to pay honor to such a man who had done so much to deserve a peaceful old age, the greatest no-hit pitcher of all time. -B. Navin -G.

The Keepers of the Halls AVE YOU a slip? This question is asked of you by a hall guard at least half a dozen times a day. The best answer yet devised to this question is the producing of the slip which the guard will then minutely examine. If the slip is satisfactory, one is permitted to continue to the next guard where the business is repeated all over again. The big diffi- culty comes when the answer to the question is nega- tive. This response should quickly be followed by a plausible explanation, applicable to the attendant cir- cumstances. If your explanation is accepted, a series of purely form questions methodically follow. Where are you going? Why? What is your name? Why? Where were you born? Why? Where do you live? And so on. The number of questions depends on how busy the hall guard is, how much the guard wants to know about you, and how willing you are to talk. The average time required to go the full length of the school under this procedure is a little more than seven minutes, by actual test. There is an art to getting one of these much coveted slips. Some of the teachers can not refuse when you apply with your sweetest smile. A few are influenced by a pleading tone of voice and you can even find one or two who will give you one if you simply ask for it. However, each teacher must be handled in his or her own way at the discretion of the student. In all this discussion we have forgotten one thing- the hall guards themselves. Sponsored by the Student Congress, they willingly give their time to carry on this worthy project, and they are fast becoming a school institution which soon will be taken for granted as being part of the decorations. We shudder to think of the vacant halls if they were not on duty. lt would be so lonesome walking down the halls if we did not have someone to talk to us when we are trying so hard to go somewhere in a hurry. -B.

No sooner was it out of sight than the other, continuing the strange noises, left its hiding place and disappeared. Guava Paste scratched his head as a great truth dawned on him. These must be groovals! Perhaps the groovals would come back. With this hope in his bosom, he put lengths of vine around the clearing. With one end of the vine in his hand, he returned to his tree top. That evening two stealthy figures approached the clearing from opposite sides. Both entered it and started to set their traps in the darkness. With a con- vulsive jerk, Guava Paste pulled his vine. They were his prisoners. All night Paramecium and Spirogyra lay in trem- bling. Thoughts kept flirting through the mind of each. Each wondered what manner of savage had caught him in such an unsportsmanlike way, and what peculiar animal was in the trap with him. At last morning came. The two hunters stared at each other in amazement. Each apologized profusely for having mistaken the other for his quarry, but it was such a natural thing to do, don't you know? During the journey to the village, vainly they tried to persuade Guava Paste that they weren't groovalsg C. 1 but he wouldn't be convinced. In the first place, they didn't have any identification papers saying they weren't, and besides he had to bring them back so he could marry the fair Woozlebird. i Years afterwards, a party of explorers found two- white-haired old Englishmen in a little village in the middle of Australia. They told strange stories of far off lands to the native children at their knees, the chil- dren of Guava Paste and Woozlebhd. lNo amount of pleading could get them to leave. They had found happiness in oblivion, and had forgotten the long years of struggle before they entered the Australian bush from whence few men return. -A.
