CADUCEUS Tl-IE LAST WORD ROBERT FONTINELLF ROBERT FONTINELLE Well, it looks as if things have caught up with me at last, so this will have to be an autobiography, at least in my case. Well, let me see. I have been on the staff for seven terms, which is, I believe, longer than anybody has ever been on before. I've belonged to the Boys' Glee Club, Dramatis Personae, was CADUCFUS Correspondent for the Nature Club. Roy Chapf man Andrews Chapter of the Junior Academy of Science, and Alfred Marshall Club: also for the New Senior and Senior Classes. Before I got to be editor-in- chief I served as literary editor for five terms, and this is my second term of being editor-in-chief. My favorite pastimes are reading, writing, photography. and going to shows: I also like hiking, bicycle riding, swimming, and walking in the rain. I like mostacciolli, the opera Showboat, Wuthering Heights. and Idylls of the King for music and reading matter. I like acting, of course. For songs, my favorites, besides numbers from i'Showboat, are Wind and the Rain in Your Hair, Lilacs in the Rain, My Reverief' South of the Border, 'ALaugh, Clown, Laugh, 'AOnly Forever, and' Per- idiaf' My favorite stars are Boris Karloff, Judy Cwarland, Alan Mowbray, and Akim Tameroff. Chief hates are serials, and getting up on cold mornings. Of my achievements I am proud of being editor of the CADUCEUS and CADU- CEUS correspondent for my class. I am proud of many of the innovations that I have thought up for the book--this section, for one, and the idea of having the division pages follow the senior motto more closely. I was thrilled that the seniors chose New Horizons, the motto that I made up, for the class motto. I had an essay judged the best in Beaumont among the boys in l939, for which I received a medal. I have written over twenty-two stories and twenty- five poems for the yearbook, besides many articles and humor material. I have had poems read at the Evening of Poetry for the last three years, and have had my poems accepted by many poetry magazines in other parts of the country. Blue Moon. Song and Story, IVestward. The Country Bard. and other maga- zines use my work regularly. I have Written a book, The Vulture and Its Brood, which was published in February. When I leave school I intend to be an actor- author, poet-playwright. There hasn't been a Fontinelle born in the last hun- dred years who hasn't been an actor: so I suppose it's in my blood. That reminds me, I worked and helped to direct the play Bachelor Born which was presented in April. My dream girl? Five feet two inches, blue eyes, pugged nose, brown hair and-What's that? Oh, it's Bud Burdock. I-Ie says he wants his biography written. Well, Bud, I guess we can oblige. BUD BURDOCK Bud has been on the staff off and on, mainly off. He has belonged to no clubs. QThey Won't have him.J He goes around with me most of the time. His favorites are blondes, brunettes. and redheads, eating. sleeping, blondes. loafing, fishing, brunettes, getting into trouble, redheads, riding freights, huckle- berry pie, by heck, blondes, brunettes, and redheads. Chief hates? A Tisket. a Tasket and all Women. except Audrey. He figures his achievement in school was being there. When he leaves, he doesn't know what to do. Yes, Bud is my alter ego .
