Are You Satisfied Now?! Are you going to have those funny captions with the pictures this year? What happened to the funny pictures? Well everyone, back by popular de- mand, a few pages for you with captions under funny pictures. Are you satisfied now? One thing that people do not under- stand about making witty and clever re- marks for pictures is the effect that it had on the people who were sacraficed for the sake of a good laugh. For the reader it seemed perfectly alright to thumb through a yearbook and get a good chuckle out of seeing a picture of a stu- dent with the caption, Oh gosh! It ' s the 19th hour on my 18 hour girdle. Or a teacher staring out at an open field with, Where did my class go? Or someone with their finger in their mouth and I thought you were over that? under it. One person who was subjected to this was freshman P.E. teacher, Mr. James Arbogast. In the 1979-1980 Accolade there was a picture of him and a caption stating, Newman ' s Pillsbury Dough boy. Mr. Arbogast stated, It was not that I was offended by the caption, but when the underclassmen began to ad- dress me as ' Doughboy ' , I was a bit an- gry. It seemed that they were not mature enough to handle it. Also, if I could have approved it first, it would have been bet- ter. Some people do get offended by it. such a pretty woman.
