Incident- ally, it's a secret that Miss Sargent has no kind feeling for dogs. During our study of Shakespeare's As You Like It, the entire class attended a performance of that play at the Repertory Theatre. We all thoroughly enjoyed the performance and experienced nothing unusual until waiting for the train at Back Bay. Then, certain members of the class stepped aboard a train, supposing it was going to Canton Junction, but fContinued on page 171
