LOUIS COUNTY M I SS OU Rl Foreword E OF '36 submit this fifth volume of the Oracle to our fellow students, teachers and friends, with the hope of portraying some of our deep regard for them. It bears a record of all those who have taken part in our social and scholastic activities, whose assistance and encouragement we will long re- member and appreciate. If in the coming years we can glance through the pages of this book and remember the ambitions and attitudes toward life we have experienced during the past four years, it will have fulfilled its purpose. If it will recall to us the flowery gardens of friendship, the steep slopes of practical learning, the swamps and forests of technical education and the routes we took in our leisure time, our work will be substantially rewarded. ,VU rv! 7 f I I J, f' f f yd S , 'QQ Fi' ff- nfxxrx ,,,.

These four phases of his life parallel, in the abstract, the life of most high school boys and girls. Just as Will, who in lassoing and branding the calf, could not disregard the angry mother cow, so We in seeking our goal, must bear in mind the demanding voice of scholastic achievement, lest we may suddenly find ourselves burdened with more extra subjects than We can carry. Most of us take advantage of every laugh-evoking opportunity available to establish ourselves in the eyes of our fel- low classmates as great humorists and showmen. Various members of our high school body have tried their hand at entertainment over the radio here at school. None of us overlook an opportunity to ex- pound to all who will give ear, our weighty philoso- phy of life, On the other hand, no average individual merits comparison to Will Rogers, for he was a man of unique genius, sought by Princes and Presidents- an unassuming prophetic, humorist with his sharp- heeled cowboy boots firmly on the ground.

N NOVEMBER 4, 1879, in a ranch house near Oolagah, Indian Territory, Wllllam Penn Adair Rogers was born. From' both maternal and paternal sides Will Rogers derived a strain of Cherokee Indian blood, a fact which he proudly proclaimed in later life. At the age of five, baby Will had already become a proficient rider, and had made his first effort with a lariat. His early years of education were scant, yet they were followed by rich experi- ence on his father's ranch in every capacity from cowhand to foreman. Whatever his responsibility, he was often found sitting on the fence of the corral cracking jokes. By the time the herd of cattle that he had been given had risen to the selling price of 512,000 Will's vagabond spirit stirred him with a longing for far away places. This sole-itching desire took him to New Orleans, from there to England, where he booked steerage passage to Rio die Janeiro. Then the Boer War broke in Africa and Will hopped a cattle boat for England, and from England, at freighter to Africa. He was eagerly enlisted into the Boer army because of his knowledge of horses. After this experience his feet again itched for new and unseen lands. In order to get to Australia he joined a Wild West show, which in time took him to gqapan and China. In 1904 he worked in a Wild West show in St. Louis at the World's air. To star in the movies in 1919 the actor had to captivate the young generation by his looks, and the cowboy philosopher, who looked as if he had not finished cutting his own hair with a pair of dull sheep shears, could not display his great personality to the best advantage. Despite all his fun making, Rogers was an emo- tional actor of rare talent and could make audiences forget that he was a comedian in scenes where he was called upon to portray the simple human emotions that touch every soul of mankind. Those who saw Mr. Skitch, Dr, Bull, State Fair and Lightning, as well as others so broadly known, think of Will only as a human being torn with emotion. The radio was not' long in claiming Will: Rogers for one of its star performers. In his: radio talks he found Presidents and politicians made shining targets for his barbed shafts of humor. In March, 1930, he signed a contract for fourteen radio talks at S'72,000. His chief interests in the manners and customs of the great Amer- ican public enabled him to tell us the hard, blunt truths about ourselves-truths about our politics, our civic standards and our social habits. We took them with a chuckle. In addition to the fame that came from Will's moving pictures and radio per- formances, he has to his credit writings representing the shrewd observations that rushed through his mind-skillfully coated ideas with a little humor, sound thinking that made his articles welcome daily to thousands of persons. As a commentator on the ever-changing political scene Will Rogers was the court jester of the nation, but behind his straight shots of humor was a sound wisdom that was even sought by high officials. Many are the anecdotes that illustrate Rogers' philanthropic interests. Will, a philanthropist, that any man might well emulate, once remarked in a serious mood: Money doesn't worry me any more. All I care about is a. good blue suit. He paused and went on: It doesn.'t even have to be good. He was a sure haven for old actors and vaudeville players, a staunch friend of cowboys, a loyal and liberal contributor to the Salvation Army, a powerful helping hand to the Red Cross. Will Rogers never did an unkind, thing .of which, there is any record, and more to his credit is the fact that he never hit the fellow that was down. He, joked the big man who was above the masses. The death of Will Rogers and Wiley Post, master aviator, in the barren wilder- ness a few miles from the last outposts of civilization in 'North America, was a shock to the world, for he was a symbol of America and Americans, an example of what our country holds for the ordinary young man from the country' if he will combine with his ability the qualities of frankness and tolerance and genuine devotion to living. Rogerisms 0NE THING about farmers' relief. It can't last long, for the farmers ain't got much more to be relieved of. It's easy to kid a big man, but you've got to look out for the little fellow. Communism to me is one-third practice and two-thirds explanation. I didn't know before I got there and they told me this-Rome, had Senators, Now I know why it declined. Any man that knows enough to say nothing always wins the admira- tion of those of us who feel that we can do the talking much better than he can anyway. The South is dry and will vote dry. That is, every one that is sober enough to stagger to the polls will. I know Englishmen that have had the same well-bred butler all their lives and they are just as rude as they ever were. I would like to stay in Europe long enough to find some country that don't blame America for everything in the world that's happened to them in the last fifteen year-debts, depression, disarmament, disease, fog, famine or frost bite. There ain't but one word wrong with every one of us in the world, and that's selfishness. Maybe my ancestors didn't come over on the Mayflower but they met the boat. But with Congress-every time they make a joke it's a law. And every time they make a law it's a joke. I wonder if this Aybssinian king could sue and get his dues back that he has paid into the League of Nations for protection. It's a grand old country but you can't live in it for nothing. 'RQ 'A W Kwik, ' And here the roclfs of rugged hills portal the way to flu' sweep of lIIII1iIIS., ffm blue of sky, and fhc, soliflldc flow to flu' heart of Bill Hogrrs. ll-llomce On The Range Oh, give me a home where the buffalo roam, Where the deer and the antelope play, Where seldom is heard a discouraging word, And the skies are not cloudy all day. How often at night, when the heavens are bright With the lights from the glittering stars, Have I stood here amazed, and asked as I gazed If their glory exceeds that of ours. Oh, give me a home where the bright diamond sand Flows leisurely down the stream, Where the graceful White swan goes gliding along Like a maid in a heavenly dream, Then I would not exchange my home on the range, Where the deer and the antelope play, Where seldom is heard a discouraging word, And the skies are not cloudy all day. Home, home on the range, Where the deer and the antelope play, Where seldom is heard a discouraging woru, And the skies are not cloudy all day.

His tenor voice may be heard ringing' in the chorus of the Boys' Glee Club, his ora- torical voice thundering in the Public Speaking Class and far be it from Tony to turn down an opportunity to be dramatic in Dramatic Club. Four words characterize this dark-haired, brown-eyed chap-talking, singing, playing, and winning. May he continue in life as he has begun in Bayless. 40 .w I 0 VWLMWW ,,,.wwf Marie Overlkamp Marie has proven quite valuable as Vice-President of the Senior Class and Secretary of the Girls' Glee Club. Regarding grades this little blonde, for the past two years, has been doing exceedingly well, especially in com- mercial subjects. She is considered to be one of the fastest, if not the fastest, typist in school. Her experience on the Girls' Basketball Team while a Freshman has given Marie an advantage over the other girls. Although Marie has only been with Bayless for four years her likable qualities have gained her a place in the hearts of everyone. X C.

Her ability as a leader, and her efficient work as office secretary have made her well known to Bayless. Betty is president of the German Club and Glee Club and secretary of the Senior class. She has proved herself a perfect student by receiving E's in all her subjects for four years. The leading role of Maryida in Ask the Professor will long be remembered because of Betty's clever interpretation. ,dw els. ,W fav- W 0 WJ M Leif lie! if Erwin Breilhan Erwin, the curly blond, six-foot-two center on the basketball team, is the envy of almost every boy in school. He has participated in three sports offered in Bayless, and is high point man in the St. Louis County Basketball League. In 1935 Erwin- also won distinction in the 220 and 440 sprints in track. In academic activities he deserves credit too, for not once has he fallen below the E group. Erwin is president of the Varsity Club and treasurer of the Senior Class. The services that this fair-haired lad has rendered this school will long be remembered by the faculty and stu- dent body of Bayless. N K N 1. Pl +0 A - -lf. Q 4 . .ff Aff ff!!! 6 F.

She is known as one of the peppiest girls in school, her reputation for being such, both at home and elsewhere, was always sensed by those,.on the team and on the side lines. Dot has been on the job at all times in the scholastic activities, and is a valuable asset to the school. She has won high honors in every- thing she has undertaken the last four years, especially along the lines of chemistry, her favorite subject. Dot is leaving this year but her keen wit and untiring patience required as Editor of this book, will long be remembered.

She has a good deal of excess energy which she expends during physical ed. period, the only time when her enthusiastic remarks and witty comments are 'not checked by the ever-present higher authority. By being the only girl to elect Public Speaking, Monie indicates an ambition to become, a public orator, which is not quite consistent with the lisping part she played in the operetta last year.

He has qualified for almost every sport offered at school with the excep- tion of track. Hank belongs to five clubs and is president of both the Glee Club and the Dramatic Club. He has ap- peared in many plays, but the part in which he is best remembered is the Professor in the musical comedy, Ask the Professor.

Although illness forced Edward to discontinue playing basketball, he was associated with the team in the capacity of time- keeper this last spring.

Perhaps it's the quality of his pleasant baritone voice that adds pep to the team and precision to their plays. Certainly he has been a large factor in winning their many victories. He is liked at Bayless, not only because he is good in sports but also because of his friendly manner.

We were forbade our daily use Of any rouge at all, And hats were worn throughout the day Within the rooms and halls.

Moving out of the old building into the new was a task that necessi- tated reorganizing the curricula as well as adapting ourselves to our new home. The major responsibility of this task rested on the shoulders of our Superintendent, Mrs. Bascom. That she performed this work conscientiously and efficiently is no surprise to us who have been under her guidance for so many years. In spite of her innumerable administrative responsibilities she preserved high morale and the spirit of good fellowship without undue severity. Every member of the class of '36 will ever think of her with a feeling of gratitude, friendship and esteem. -.v X VIOLET C. BAscoM Superin tendvnt is ig 355 8. 5?

Each group has appreciated the advantage of having a larger music room as Well as a longer time for rehearsals and programs. Membership in the groups provides an opportunity to learn to sing better, and to learn more about music and its interpretation.

At the beginning of the Basketball season Bayless boasted of fifty- four boys who were anxious to participate in this popular sport. With six lettermen the team started practice under the capable supervision of Coach Murphy. The year was a successful one with nine league and eight practice game victories. Every Bayless rooter appreciates the good work of the squad and congratulates the team for the St. Louis County League Championshipg the first ever won by Bayless. With this graduating class go five lettermen, who leave enviable reputations. Their places will not be easily filled, Basketball ITH THE OPENING of the basketball season, Bayless held great chance of winning the County League Championship-losing only Zimmerer and Boese from last year's team. The team having six lettermen back from last year, proved that it was a winning team by winning the first six games it played. After such a record, an invitation was received to participate in the Normandy Tournament, this being the first year Bayless was ever selected to play in this select group. For its first game Bayless drew as its opponents the strong Roosevelt team, the winners of the tournament. A few days before the all-important game, Frank Genovese had a very serious accident, throwing him out of the game until the very last of the season. This greatly disrupted the morale of the team, allowing Roosevelt to pile up a fourteen point lead. The second Ihalf the boys came more near to playing their usual gameg each team scoring eighteen points. This first defeat was a bitter one, and probably foreshadowed that Bayless was definitely not a tournament team. Of the four games lost out of the twenty-two played, all were in tournaments. Following the Normandy Tournament another loss was suffered-Thomas Lischko left school. This meant that two of the regulars were out of the lineup. Anthony Rataj, Erwin Breihan, and Edward Sullentrup were the three regulars left, and Henry Jubel capably filled Lischko's place on the squad. The other vacant place in the lineup was filled by members of the second team until Genovese was well englpgh to start again. Even with the loss of these two regulars the team, oour- ageously carried on, not once letting up on usual style of playing in the league games. Bayless set a record in the number of points scored in one game thisa year by beating Affton 74-29. Since this would be the last year the first team would play in high school basketball, Coach Edward Murphy permitted them to stay in although it was slaughter for Affton. Special notice must be given to Coach Edward Murphy, whose able leadership built the team into one that besides being a winning squad, was one that always played the game Mclean. 'S Erwin Breihan sinks a goal for Bayless as the undefeated County eagers subdued Riverview Gardens, 47-16, recently for their eighth straight victory. The game was played at Bayless Gynasium. Coach Murphy's team needs two more victories to clinch the championship, Baseball 935 As the first blade ,of grass poked its head above the ground the base- ball squad for '35 took to the diamond. Practice was the only factor missing in the shaping of the rookie squad. The Weather was inclementg rain, sleet, and even snow blocked the team's progress and to top it all there was no heated gym in which to Work. Sore arms and stiff muscles were characteristics of the season. Games were scheduled, postponed and finally called off. ' Although the team emerged victorious from only one game out of the five played, a rookie squad was espied and material developed for the coming year, We Won't make any predictions as to the outcome of this year's games but the results are more promising than ever, A fight- ing spirit can do the trick that will make Bayless come out a winner. L. K. '37 ffl' flfjix In A 4x , 'K Q - x I R ,ll ,X3 C' .- ff T5 N s ' vm? -22. - T Track HE spring of 35 heralded into Bayless High sporting event- TRACK. With material that seemed both promising and willing, Coach Edward Murphy began moulding a track team into shape. With so much rain last spring, and only a mud track the team could not get in much practice. Having only a smattering of training, the team jour- neyed to Fairview, where, against experienced veterans the squad placed only fourth. A few weeks later in the Jennings Invitational Track Meet a third place trophy was secured by these boys. There were seven teams in the meet and it was only by hard fighting and a sturdy will that Bay- less was able to triumph over four other teams. Losing only Elmer Scherer from last year's team, and retaining such veterans as Erwin Breihan, Edward Sullentrup, Frank Genovese, An- thony Rataj, Edward Rybar, and Sam Markland Bayless may be able to produce a team this year that the school may well be proud of. We are sure that even if the track team does not win more honor and trophies for Bayless, it will at all times make the students of this high school proud of its good sportsmanship and fighting spirit. X Volley Ball N RETURNING to school in September the boys looked forward with eager eyes to the day when the call for volley ball would be sounded. This was an entirely new athletic anticipation of Bayless High School. But with our new volley ball equipment, practice was soon an- nounced by Coach Murphy and quite a few boys turned out for the new sport, some, perhaps, just to play in our new gym. Only a few students knew what volley ball really was, but the entire squad was composed of boys who were eager to learn. There were six fighting men on our team, who were determined not to lose a game without putting up a good fight. The team was then initiated into the game of volley ball when it was defeated by Hancock High School in a practice game. Bayless then lost a few more hard-fought games with Brentwood and Hancock. But it cannot be denied that every game was played by the Bayless boys with the spirit of sportsmanship, in which our school excells. Then came the Ferguson Volley Ball Tournament in which we were bound to get our revenge. In the opening game we easily defeated Jen- nings High School, but we were again defeated by Brentwood High School, whose team was composed of experienced volley ball players and who ultimately won the tournament. However, the work of Coach Murphy and the cooperation of the squad was not entirely in vain, for this volley ball practice gave some of the under-classmen the much needed experience, Next year, then, Bay- less may look forward to having a real volley ball team of which every- body should be proud.

'37 The Casualty Club U O ONE can describe the depressed feeling at Bayless on that certain Monday in December, when' we heard the news that Frank Genovese, the brilliant guard on the Bayless basketball team, had injured one of his fingers in a hamburger machine. There were no laughs or giggles among the higher classmen that eventful day, but the Freshmen of course could not resist the temptation of making fun of this calam- ity. For instance, some wise guy made a crack that the price of the hamburger would surely rise, while another jokingly advised that one finger on the hand was worth two in the hamburger. Fortunately, no more than the tip of Frank's finger was injured, but he was unable to play another full game of basketball. But Frank's injury could be concealed by a bandage. Erwin Breihan, our giant basketball center, was not so fortunate in that respect. After one of our l-eague games he brought home for himself a black eye,-a gorgeous jet black, harmoniously blending with a rich royal purple, shading into satiny maroon, and from maroon into the baby pink of his fair complexion. Every one knows how Erwin loves dark eyes, but no one suspicioned that he'd endure such pain to wear one himself a week or two. A fellow Senior deprecatingly hinted that vanity lay behind this colorful ornamentation, that it was surely no coincidence that the photographer was coming to take pictures for the annual at this particular time. After several days of ex- hibition and explanation Erwin found himself reduced to his normal popularity again. No one knows but that the blow that painted the blinker might have been opportunity knocking at the door, for had Breihan been the type to exploit his resources he might have made a small fortune. Every player on the basketball team suffered injury at one time or another. Edward Sullentrup sprained an ankleg Henry Jubel wore a pestiferous boil on his hand, which made the spectators wince every time he caught the ball. Anthony Rataj received a cut over his eye, only a minor injury, for which the flashy forward took his revenge by scoring a field goal in the next minute's play. Leonard Siebert, a dark-eyed Freshman, took an awkward tumble on the court one afternoon, which meant not only the pain of a broken left wrist but also the sacrifice of his first year's experience in basketball. Let us make a review of the injuries of the fairer sex of Bayless. For instance, Violet Schmitt, a popular Sophomore, upon hearing her friends approach her home one night, rose from her couch and stumbled through the dark to the window to hail them with a hearty greeting. She paid the 'price of the exciting incident by wearing, for several days, a nose from two to three sizes too large for her, in mottled shades of blue, brown, rose and red, varying as the days went by. Then there was Sadie Weiner, who sprained an ankle-surely not to test the gallantry of a certain Senior. Rumor had it at the first of the year that 'the girls in gym classes were very rough, and evidence supported the report as Monzelle Block, Edna Boese, and Mildred Zilch unsteadily limped through Bayless corridors. After a few more months of experience the girls became so graceful and sylph-like that no further casualties were reported. Considering- the enrollment and the extent of our physical activities Bayless is fortunate indeed to have had no more casualties than she had. Not one studlent was seriously injured-for this we are all thankful. H. J. '36, ig 'run 4 i.: ' I' I L by T1 tl' ,A N A ,T .. , .

September 3 Registration Day Upper classmen as well as Freshies gaze in wonder at the beautiful new school building. Since the floors are not quite finished, classes will not begin until next week. September 9 Seniors, still a bit dazzled in their new surroundings and with their newly-acquired dignity, try vainly to overawe the underclass- men. Guess which undignified Senior was discovered trying to crawl into her locker? September 1 1 Breathless demands heard between periods in the halls: I forgot, is this the first or the second floor? Help me somebody! Where's the History room? Tell me quick, what's the name of the new Latin teacher? September 20 Freshman Initiation The initiation of the Freshies, the night on which the Seniors place impositions on the little Freshies, is a gala affair in the life of the student body each year. The evening starts with dancing, during which the bashful novices are dragged onto the floor by upper- classmen girls. The older boys are very attentive to the pretty Freshie girls, who need no urging to dance. One of the most interesting events of the evening is the actual initia- tion of the Freshies. This year the girls were blindfolded and led to a table, where they were made to identify several objects by smelling them. They sniffed critically at delicious apples and luscious oranges until a good whiff of ammonia brought tears to the eyes of even the most dignified and composed Freshie. The boys were put through a Paddling Machine, during which time the upperclassmen boys were in their glory. Last but not least, the refreshments were served to the famished Freshmen, who had so recently been put through arduous tasks. When everyone had danced the last waltz with his best girl, and the Freshmen had been read the Bayless creed, the happy crowd decided to leave to await the next September's initiatio7n pa7rty, D. . '3 Whogs to Blame If Bayless doesn't suit you, If you can't obey the rules, If the Clubs are dead and dying, If you think the teachers fools, Suppose you try this little scheme And give yourself a shock. Just buckle down to good hard work, And don't take the time to knock. The ones who groan the loudest About assignments given Are not the angels sprouting wings, And setting sail for heaven. They are usually found loafing In the halls or on the stairs. Not solitary you can bet, They always go in pairs. Their aim and chief ambition, If by force they're not deterred, Is to attract attention to themselves By making themselves heard. When they are asked suggestions to liven up the crowd They have nothing to offer after all their bally hoo. So if you have complaints to make, And the good that's offered you can't take, Remember to keep these words in view- It's not the school, it's you. J. S.

When the last scorched marshmallow had fallen into the fire, the crowd expressed its contentment by singing lustily and none too harmoniously, Lucky girls, those who were escorted by the handsome basketball boys and who witnessed the carrying out of well-laid plans which had been shrouded in mystery for a week.

May 13 The last report cards of the season bring about the following com' ments: Now the time for report cards is at hand, V The freshies stream in, in one large band. All the cards are given, by one, by two, and three, And this little card, it's said, reveals our destiny. Some receive it with a smile, Others with a frown, Some think it is well worth while, Others run theirs down. Here is one who smiles in glee, As he proudly shows his HE . Here is another who breathes a sigh As he pockets shamefully his I . One lad protests in self-defense That his card makes him think he's dense. This report is another trick, Why, every grade just makes me sick. His chum then boasts, I can't be sad: This is the best report I've had. A girl then says, You'dg never guess, But in English I received an S l One frowning girl mutters, Gee, I think that I deserve an 'E'. Then she adds with scarlet cheeks, Ive worked my hardest this six weeks. To her a modest chap replied, I'm sure I am quite satisfied. I heard another then declare, I think we've all been treated fair. So at the end of each six weeks' term These old report cards make us squirm But when the next term's goal is won, We are glad to see just what we've done. D. S. '39 Who's Guilty P ?

'38 Calendar May 14 The first Junior-Senior prom in the new building turns out to be the most successful in the history of Bayless. With a few jokes and a few tears the Seniors enjoy their last Student social function in Bayless. May 15 With eager anticipation of the future, and yet with lingering reminiscence of the past happy hours spent in Bayless, the class of 1936 faces a broad, new plain-Life. Calendar B. Z. '36 Adventure In Pioneering PON A CERTAIN moon-flooded night in March, a group of Bayless moderns set out for a point unknown. One might well say this was a carefully selected group, each member with his own distinguishing characteristics and idiosyncrasies sympathetically understood by the others. By this time, no doubt, the reader won- ders what kind of a collection this was. To answer his question he might picture a group of young men and women of the mid-twentieth century, sound mentally and physically-at the peak of hilarity-the product of the dyspeptic's bad dream. Since the route followed by this party was not marked in th-e manner so familiar to tourists of this twentieth century, guide slips were picked up at certain places, slips with confusing directions that stimulated resourceful minds for interpretation. The first group left the starting point at approximately 7:45 P. M., proceeding in accordance with the directions of the first guide slips to a drug store. llrom that point we ventured on the first long leg of our journey. The next of these slips directed us further along the route, telling us to stop at a certain place of business in a diminutive hamlet, population seventy-eight, where we were to receive another of the guide slips. It was at this juncture that the individual responsible for these proceedings was encountered. He proved to be. a person not too tall, but slightly inclined to be corpulent, genial of nature, with. a alove for sports. He swiftly van- ished from view, however, into his automobile, green of hue, and possessing great speed. All attempts to catch him were futile, for the trail over which we were now traveling, although unknown to us, was familiar to him. Until this time the journey had been comparatively com.fortable, due to the paved surfaces along which we had been riding, but now the surface was hrokefn, filled with holes and covered with large rocks offering no ease, whatsoever. After being jostled about for no uncertain length of time, the occupants of the vehicle were rewarded by their first sight of their destination. It was a sizeable building, well constructed of stalwart timbers, a dwelling apparently uninhabited, but on further investigation, the aforementioned precipitator of these proceedings was found to be present, toying with what appeared to be a lamp fed by the same versatile fluid that powered the vehicle. His attempts, however, were not very successful for the lamp would sputter and die after short intervals of dazzling bril- liance. Meanwhile, the moon above shone in all its glory. Another car swung into view, at this point, followed closely by another, and then another. The new arrivals immediately fell into the spirit of the occasion and merriment reigned. A great circle, formed about the inefficient lamp and everyone joined in a game, depending on pedestrian dexterity, which most of the group found that they were sorely lacking. Strenuous exertion and the exhilarating atmosphere aroused pangs of hunger in the group, so that their thoughts turned to food. They gathered about a blazing log fire, where they boastingly measured their abilities in the capacity of cooks. Some proved very efficient, while others suffered by comparison, Music was next on the programrand after an hour or so of listening to tlunes long extinct play on a dilapidated radio, some resourceful individual hit upon the plan of pulling a car close to the house, and using the radio. This proved successful, and after flitting to and fro to the accompaniment of games again were suggested. This time they were the frolicsome games which were an inexhaustible source of the fact that they made us appear ridiculous in the Several enjoyable hours had passed. Only the terminate an evening of perfect gayety. Many topics that homeward trip. Especially will be remembered the the music for a short period, games of our childhood days, of amusement to us in spite eyes of our elders. return journey remained to of interest were discussed on peculiar behavior of a certain antiquated automobile which veered from side to side, making it impossible for following cars to pass.
