Page Fourteen T H E-All O rl! TENTOT ers of your Staff, we gladly be- queath several pairs of five-and ten-cent store spectacles, colored or otherwise, as the beneficiary de- sires, a magnifying glass, minus the handle, and nineteen red mark- ing pencils, without points, and one yo-yo, red in color, so that you may never be without something to do in moments of idleness. Item: The subjoined list will be recognized as entailed estates to which we do declare the Class of '37 the real and rightful successo1's. First: The Staff of '36, which has been decreed to die on June eleventh, nineteen hundred and thirty-six, joins unanimously in apologizing to the faculty advisers. Miss Nora Dunn and Miss Helen Doenges, for any misdemeanors or display of bad humor during the past year. We do sincerely appre- ciate the wise guidance they have given us, the valuable suggestions, without which we could not have hoped to succeed, and know that you of the Staff of '37 will enjoy the privilege of working under the supervision of these two teachers, as We have enjoyed their pleasant association, this past yea1'. Second: We feel that our will would be incomplete without leav- ing to you Ash Can Pete, the School Prowler, that mystery man who stands in the background and fails to disclose his identity. They say he wears 'Kspecs , knows all, sees all, and hears all , and doesn't fail to publish it-so watch your step, girls and boys! Third: The success of our paper this year leaves a challenge for greater success next year. Here and now, before our last hours are up, we leave you this challenge. With hard work and with the co- operation of each member, this challenge should be fulfilled. I l l i l i I We hereby constitute and ap- point our said principal, Prof. R. Floyd Cromwell, a citizen of the State of Maryland, to be the execu- tor of this our last will and testa- ment, hereby revoking any will or wills by us heretofore made and declaring this and no other to be our last will and testament. Witness our hand and seal at Cambridge, Md., this second day of June, in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and thirty-six. THE STAFF OF '36 fSealJ Signed, sealed, published and de- clared by the Staff of '36, the above named testator, as and for our last will and testament in the presence of us, who at their request, in their presence and the presence of each other have signed our names as witnesses thereto.

Page Thirteen WILL OF THE HOTTENTOT fContinued from Page 3, Col. 31 our personal and valuable proper- ty, we do direct, authorize and em- power our executor, hereinafter named, to sell at either public or private sale, any remaining publi- cations which may be on hand, with the exception of two, one we be- queath to our principal, in remem- brance of the Staff of '36, and one to the succeeding editor-in-chief, of the Staff of '37, and the amount derived from such sale, we direct that our said executor shall apply to the payment of all our just debts, incurred within the last year, and funeral expenses and the cost of administration of our estate, and the balance, if any there be, we give and bequeath to the beneficiaries of our estate, to be equally divided between them, to be used for the sole purpose of furthering the issue at hand, pro- vided, however, that if the amount received from said sale be insuffi- cient to discharge our debts, funer- al and administration expenses as aforesaid, then that the hereinaf- ter named beneficiaries shall make good such deficiency, each paying an equal share, the amount of such deficiency to be chargeable against the devise and bequest made to them respectively by our last will and testament. As to such material things as it has pleased the gods to bestow upon our unworthy selves, we do dispose and distribute these as follows: Item: Our most noted and hon- ored editor-in-chief, Mr. Wildai James, does give and bequeath to his successor, the editor-in-chief of the Staff of '37, Mr. William Sack- ett,-first, because of the import- ance it has had in attaining his achievements, that famous and easily recognized, slow smile which, when put into effect, sets the girls' hearts a-flutter. We trust, Wil- liam, that with this much envied gift, you will be more generous than our admired editor, whose blushing glances this last year have been for only one very pretty little Senior. Mr. James also leaves to Mr. Sackett, who is as yet unskilled in the art of editor- ship, the distressing mental agita- tion and the long hard hours of la- bor that he has graciously and du- tifully performed, especially that of the past few weeks, together with the authority and power that such a position entails. Mr. James leaves behind, for Mr. Sackett's benefit, one Schaeffer's fountain pen minus the point, and which is incapable of absorbing ink, a one- half inch lead pencil which has O been in the custody of the school for five years, and a package of Wrigley's Spearmint to brighten any disheartening moments Mr. Sackett may experience while ar- ranging the issues for publication. Since Mr. James can no longer en- joy the dignity, pomp and super- iority of his social status, he be- queaths these, too, to Mr. Sackett, Item: Miss Katherine Robbins, our lovely and charming Assistant Editor gives and bequeaths to Mr. Harper LeCompte the full amount of her personality plus , as well as her gracious manner and the rare gift of saying the right thing at the right time. Miss Robbins also bequeaths to Mr. LeCompte her extended vocabulary of words for his disposal. We hope you will guard these gifts very carefully and esteem them most highly, Har- per, for you will find that they are invaluable in aiding you to some- times escape difficult situations. Item: Our modest little literary editor, Miss Alice Collins, who has wrongfully been nicknamed Goo- na , by those who know her well, implying a relationship to Alice, one of the Goon Girls, does give and bequeath to Messrs. Herman Stevens and Goldey Tyler, her Slow Southern habits, to be equally divided between them, so that nei- ther may be entirely overcome by the affliction. She also bequeaths to Mr. Jory Slaughter, her some- what Southern drawl-in order that he may acquire a happy me- dium in his enunciation. Item: Miss Grace Brannock Smith, our other diligent literary composer, leaves to Mr. William Newcomb, he of the studious re- nown, and Miss Phoebe Morse, her angelic face and innocent expres- sion, which will carry you far, Bil- ly and Phoebe, when the finger of suspicion points toward you. Item: Miss Marjorie McKnight, our editor of humor, bequeaths to Mr. Calvin Slacum, her successor, the ill-will of several students for publishing their guarded secrets, also two rotten tomatoes and one grapefruit which said students heaved at her and fortunately missed. She also leaves him the privilege of becoming another Win- chell with the able assistance of his Girl Friday , Miss Elizabeth Rue. Item: To Misses Betty Robbins and Margaret Mowbray of the Staff of '37, Miss Virginia Mills gives an bequeaths her popularity with the male members of the fac- ulty. A very acceptable gift, eh what, girls? Mr. Alan Wilkinson devises and bequeaths to the male members of the Sports Depart- ment, his well-known athletic abili- ty, his famous auburn curls and his nickname of Reds , providing that you accept his freckles also. fAlan seems pleased- Good riddance of bad rubbish, he replies.J Item: Our assiduously industri- ous artist, Mr. Venable, does give and bequeath his school-girl com- plexion to any unemployed mem- ber of the Art Department of the Staff of '37 wishing to pose for Lux Toilet Soap Ads. I wonder who'll be the lucky one? Item: Mr. William Albert Brote- markle, Jr., commonly known as just Brotie , bequeaths to his successors, Miss Alva Walker and her assistant, Mr. Edward Peters, his remarkable debating ability so that they may be well equipped and prepared to stand up for the rights of the Senior Body next year, un- der the only condition that this gift be well taken care of, and prized most highly, and under any circum- stances they do not part with it. Item: To the Typing Depart- ment, because of a great desire to be absolutely perfect in their work, we bequeath all the worn-out type- writers and lead pencil erasers, with the understanding that they are to be loaned to whomever shall ask for them without regard to Race, Color or Previous Condi- tion of Servitudef' Item: To the Advertising Staff of '37, we leave the excellent sales- manship ability of our own worthy staH, which deserves the highest praise, and we sincerely hope you will have as much success as we have had this past year in secur- ing ads. Item: Miss Rowena Meredith, a member of the Junior Advertising Staff has pleadingly requested that we bequeath to her all the good looks of some member of the Se- nior Staff, in order that she may be Voted the Most Prettiestn of the Senior Class of '37, and it is with the greatest of pleasure, that we, in accord with her very earnest plea, pass on to her the blonde beauty of Anna Mae Warner. Item: Our energetic, peppy busi- ness manager from up North, where the temperature is below zero on the hottest of summer days, who has proved this year that Economy pays , does give and be- queath to her successor, Miss Doris Robbins, the full capacity of her northern brogue, together with her untiring energy and her willing- ness and desire to help others. With these bequeathments, Doris, you should be able to tantalize your friends, be of unlimited value to those about you and win the high esteem and respect of your classniates as Olga has done. , Item: To the future proof-read- THE ARCADE THEATRE The Class of 1936 See the shows that we have coming WED. and THURS., June 17-13 Bette Davis and George Brent in The Golden Arrow MON. and TUES., June 22-23 Joe E.
