There once was a fellow named lake, Down the up stairs he'd go by mistake, There'd be quite a mob, Oh Van, Oh Bing But he was no snob, Of thee I sing! He'd clear them away with a rake. IoAN HARING HERBERT KAPLAN There was a young senior named Dan There once was a fellow named Ioe, Who thought that he had a good plan Who thought to Columbus he'd go He cut all his classes But he saw an alumnus, Then forged all the passes Said goodbye to Columbus And now he's a senior again. At Evander he's nursing his woe. IRA BIRNBAUIVI LORRAINE SACKS A tricky old student named Sam, Tried to cheat on a uniform exam, He thought he had passed, But the idea didn't last, 'Cause his mark was as boneless as Spam.

JOHNNY CCMES MARCHING HOME I doubt if the war ever touched our family as much as it did when my brother, Iohnny donned the uniform of one of the armed forces. Then during the war there had been letters, cheery, hopeful ones. But letters could never fill the gap which his absence left. Now Iohnny is coming home. After so many years of fighting in distant places that used to be just funny names on a map, Iohnny is coming home! He has never known what it has felt like having a service star in the big front window, facing the porch instead of a teasing, jolly brother who often helped with the dishes or with my geometry. I know Iohnny probably has changed but so have we. Materially we might all look a bit different. I've begun to wear my hair in an upsweep. Dad's even balder than ever and Mother's hair has turned grey. L X f 7 A Wifi A , I VV 28
