THE JUNIOR LIFE 19 Wanted: By a Certain Boy in Bryant Junior High A more humorous English teacher; A padded back to school desks; Invisible gum (noiseless too); Not so many fail slips; Swimming as a major subject; Smoked glasses for the teachers; Not so much red ink on his report card; Good excuse for coming late to class; Permanent pass to get away from detention room; Teachers who were once young themselves; Personal, soft pillows for use when the teacher is giving a lecture; A trap-door in the floor through which to drop after saying, “I don't know.” Queries About the Picnic 1. Where, when, and how long will it be? 2. Will Mr. Hardaker keep his eagle eye on us or will we be allowed to roam around fancy free? 3. Will Mrs. Record prepare our food or will we starve? 4. Will Boh Hillberg and Ray Jackson build an airplane in which to transport us or will we have to ride on the streetcar driven by Tom Wheaton? 5. If we are delayed, will Mrs. Hallcnberger say, “Patience is a virtue”? 6. Will we be allowed to go swimming? 7. Will Nicholas Smith bring some Greek gum? 8. Will John Ryan let his “hot Irish temper run away with him? 9. Will Mr. Hardaker tell us a story of “When 1 was a Boy”? 10. Will the “Woman-haters’ Club” headed by Winn Brown weaken or stand pat? 11. Will Carl Benson leave his good manners at the edge of the wood? 12. Will Robert Gilbertson and Ralph Krcuger show us a thing or two about tennis? 13. If Helen Mitchell wears curls will she be taken for a shy country girl? 14. How will Eileen Costello, Lorraine Bush, and Helen Berthusen spend their time? 15. Will Margaret Damon and Virginia Gould forget to be shy? 16. Will Margaret Moore have us all pose on top of stumps and refuse cans while she takes our pictures? 17.
