These places are reserved Tor Those who need a resT-cure aTTer The nighT beTore. UnTorTunaTely, This reTreaT has become so exclusive laTely ThaT sTudenTs have been Torced To bang each oTher over The heads To muscle in. The usual Technique oT geTTing an admission TickeT is To Think silenTly Tor Tive minuTes abouT homework. This produces a suTTicienTly woebegone look To move The hearT oT even a Teacher. STicking your Tinger down your ThroaT, Though noT recommended, has worked in The mosT diTTiculT cases. Qnce in The imfirmary several minor irriTaTions are inTroduced To ag- gravaTe your condiTion. Your pasT has To be displayed down To The earliesT bellyache, and reguisiTion Torms Tor band-aids and aspirins Tilled. Illness aTTer The sevenTh period is generally prohibiTed and you may noT leave unless your parenTs call Tor you in a Cadillac. I-lowever, anyThing is preTerable To The drudgery oT a classroom, and a li++Ie coTTon sTuTTed in The ears helps Toward a shorT buT pleasanT resT. Illness can be such Tunl THE DEPARTMENT OFFICES The DeparTmenT oTTices are scaTTered all over The building. They are inhabiTed by hordes oT sTudenTs supposedly helping The chairman run The various deparTmenTs. Some oT These oTTices are guieT and resTTul. OThers resemble The Fordham SkaTing Rink on SaTurdoy nighT. The English and The I-lisTory oTTices have The largesT sTaTTs. l3oTh oT These oTTices make excellenT ball-rooms especially since The chairmen have been driven ouT oT Them To calmer reTreaTs. The Tiling cabineTs are excellenT places Tor sToring lunches, gym-suiTs, TexTbooks, combs, and cosmeTics since These can be alphabeTicolly arranged. Inside inTormaTion on lasT year's exam, Teachers' idiosyncracies, and book reporT copies are available as well as vasT supplies oT paper, clips, rubber bands IshooTing varieTyI, cuT slips, program cards. and services passes. IT has been suggesTed ThaT These oTTices mighT be The ideal soluTion Tor The long soughT smoking rooms.
