I8 THE MEGUNTICOOK I terest intgood appearance, worthwhile jobs, and wholesome entertainment fail in old age. Anna Sparta, '47 - C H S -L RADIO SUSPENSE Dick Tracy and Superman'l known as Two on a Cluen were on the case of Honeymoon Hillw which involved the mur- der of Ma l'erkinsH who was beaten to death with a Breakfast Club. The only clue was an initialed man's handkerchief, which she had clutched in her r1h't hand. This caused the police to suspect her Sec- ond Husbandf, His motive could have been Mirth and Madness. But these two Bos- ton Quiz Kids weren't ready to call the case closed. As they looked deeper into her past, they discovered many skeletons in her closet of past history. Some of the in- teresting facts were, that while Ma Perk- ins had been a Backstage Wife,', she had been mixed up in the Romance of Helen Trent, and that her husband had been seeing a lot of Young VVidder Brownff NN'ho do you think is the fiendish mur- derer? Tune in tomorrow, when you will hear the climax of this dynamic murder thriller. Our two detectives will prove to their radio audience, once again, that Life can be Beautiful. Helen Dority, '46 - C H S - coM1c Book, THE MODERN STUDY AID ' ln this world of speed and streamlining, the inhabitants of this planet have seen re- velations in every field. Typical of these is the entrance of the Comic Book into the life of the modern minor, lt is a common sight to see a studious school boy deep in the realms of Superman, while Caesar stands unoticed. He will soon tire of reading about the freeing of the slaves, but continues to read for hours, ab- sorbing the adventures of Batman, who li- berates 'the modern metropolis from the clutches of the underworld. To many stu- dents, algebra and languages are a mystery, but they clearly see how Dick Tracy found that Flat Top killed John's Other Wife. Even Caesar would be simple if it was.put in a comic book. , Raymond Gross, '45 THE SINGING LETTER Maria Elenaf' ln the Still of the Night I Dream of You , Always,', but as Time Waits for No One, and l'm a Little on the Lonely Side, Let Me Love You Tonight. I Don't VVant to Love You, but The Very Thought of You is like A Kiss in the Dark. I used to say I'll VValk Alone, but l Didn't Know About You. I'll Be'Seeing You More and More, Dark Eyes, but until then, I Promise You, l'll NValk Alone. Good Night Sweetheart, Johnny Zero P. S. ls You ls or Is You Ain't My Baby? Glee Bryant, '45 - C H S - IT'S A KNOCK-OUT Camden High School has been stormed by a new craze. That once sane, sensible esta- blishment is now approaching madness. The very walls vibrate with the sound of the name, whispered from room to room and in every corridor. This instrument is used throughout the entire school, from the Manual Arts Department to the domesti- cated same, lt is considered necessary in computing the simplest of everyday pro- blems. There is one strange character, Bur- kett, who is absolutely a wiz at it. Of course you know what that is. VVell, natur- ally! lt's the slide-rule. joan Greenlaw, '46 - C H s - - SENIORS A Seniors, we've enjoyed youg Please come back some day To see how we are doing In our own new-fangled way. We're sorry you must leave us, And we hate to see you go. We liked your happy spirits And the way you bossed f?l us so. But much as we hate to say goodbye, There's one thing that we know: We never could be seniors If out you didn't go. Frances Stanley, '46

Payson, the week before Christmas. said to Tim Grindle, Get out of class for the rest of this year. On january 2, Tim was hack again. tYou see a new year had starteclj. --CHS- Miss Clason: You can plainly see that everything we learn ties right together. john Thomas: I guess all my knots have come untierlf' THE BIG THREE Foday the world seems waiting, Our leaders have again met To argue this whole situation, And they'll solve this problem, you bet! True, there are some who will tell you Their way is the only one, But it won't be the narrow-minded That will claim the honors, when done. I smile when I pass or :mingle with Different groups from all walks of life, And there is sure to be some big shot, Always aiming to stir up strife. He'll prate and preen and glower, And paint pictures black with gloom. He'll tell you freedom is no more- We're headed for instant doom. Now lies the kind to flee from, He's poison to the soul. Lost to him is the vision of justice- The center of humanity's goal. Lift up your hearts, your spirits too, Look to the promise of love Brought by those leaders now, as of old Guided by God from above. Fear not, leave faith in humanity, As our leaders-The Big Three Are fighting to preserve all Nations- The rest is up to you and me. Q Maxine Duffell, '46 - C H S - ALL THESE THINGS To tramp o'er the hill and dale, Searching for flowerets hid near the trail, And lean against some rustic rail And hear the whistling of a quailg To hear the whispering leaves above, And know that these are all GOD's loveg To look at distant lakes and streams And see reflected YOUR hopes and dreams: To gaze from a mountain to the sea below And know beneath it green things grow, To gather leaves on a crisp fall day And know that winter's well on its wayg These things happen as seasons pass, But these memories will always last. Joan Sawyer, '47 - C H S - - Mr. Shihles fto classj: You can always tell a Harvard man. but you can't tell him much.
