BARBARA BLISTEIN Barbara is not only one of our most popular girls. but also one of our most intelligent. Although we very often see her leaving our high institution of learning without books, she always manages to come out with a good report when the time rolls around. Barbara is always ready to help her classmates, and has won many friends at Classical. Katharine Gibbs: Choir, fl, 2, 3, 415 Dramatic Club, fl, Z1. IRA BORNSTEIN Ira has been recognized as a mathematician of higher calibre than is usual in a high school pupil. Though he has barbed many a teacher with keen argumentation, he has earned the respect of all. Ira will long be remembered as the boy with the alertness of mind, the math shark. and the understanding of a sincere friend. R. I.

I i WINIFRED MARY CARMODY Winnie is one of our well-known Classicalites. Her blond hair. blue eyes, and charming manner are only a few of her assets. Winnie is one of our best history students, although she would much rather spend her afternoons and evenings skating or swimming. She is always ready with a joke or a smile. We all wish her success. R. I. C. E.: Choir, fl, 22. - IRVING CHUCNIN It is hard to express the sportsmanship of this chap. He has ac- quired, in addition to his scholastic accomplishments, a legion of stead- fast friends. Though he may be undecided as to his future, we are sure Irving will be successful in anything he undertakes. Au reuoir! Brown: German Club. HILDA PAULA CONTI This slender, charming brunette with the dazzling smile is one of the most friendly and sincere members of the senior class. She has won the admiration of everyone by her wit and pleasing personality. Hilda is an ardent tennis player, excelling in the game. Her well-timed strokes symbolize the ability she will show in her chosen held of work. R. I. C. E.: French Club. ANNA VIRGINIA COSTABILE Anna is petite, graceful, and attractive, possessing jet black hair and sparkling brown eyes. Her hobby, at which she spends much of her time. is taking pictures. She has a charming personality, and has that indescribable something which assures success. Anna has all the quali- ties that are found in a true friend. Bryant: Basketball, KU.

His pleasing personality and his neat appearance have been the source of true friendships. His future ambition is to lead a swing band and give competition to Benny Goodman. We have full confidence in you, Freddie, in whatever your future undertakings may be. R. I. State.

I. Hospital. ANTHONY DURANTE Silence is golden! Why, then, is Jim always broke? Jim has glided through his four years at Classical, arguing politics and telling stale jokes. But, nevertheless, Jim, we regret to see you leave. By your pleasing personality you have acquired the true friendship of many fel- low-students. Remember, perseverance will make you as distinguished as one of your favorite diplomats. Providence College: Social Committee, K3, 41. JOSEPH FARRELL Joseph is a rare combination of good fellow and excellent scholar. He is always ready to give a helping hand to his friends. Although Joe is a quiet, unassuming Classicalite, he .always wears a smile. There is no doubt that this cheerful, studious fellow will continue his meritori- ous achievements at his chosen college. Providence College, Golf, PU. 'R 'R 'R 'R 'R 'R 11 CALVIN FISHER, JR. May we present the prince of good fellows ? Cal is our superla- tive of sport and source of fun. Fortune has blessed him with a ver- satile tongue to aid in numerous scrapes, and charm to win a host of friends. Brown will profit by such an ardent student, while Classical will miss our Classi-Cal. Quo non praestantior alter Brown: Orchestra, 1l, 22: Football, 12, 3, 425 Co.

MAI-IER A three-letter man every--year, Maher has gone through Classical the hard way, because he still maintains a high scholastic average. He can take a win in his stride and a loss as well. We know that he will go a long way, for. in graduating from Classical, Ed leaves behind an enviable record for the underclassmen to emulate. Baseball, ll, Z, 3, 42, Captain, I-U5 Football, KZ, 3, 42.

All we want is to introduce Bernie, the beam- ing, becoming, beneficent, benign, bibliopolic, bounteous, brotherly, businesslike bulwark of Classical conservativeness. When such qualities as these are added to a ready smile and pleasing personality, Classical may rest assured that her name will be glorified in any field that the agreeable possessor of these attributes enters.

Classical threatened in the last few min- utes, got down to 10 yard line, but the time ran out. 2. St. Raphael vs. Classical-6-13. First victory for Classical. 3. Central Falls vs. Classical-6-24. Classical ran away with an easy victory. running up the score, and using practically all members of the squad. D'Avanzo galloped 85 yards for a touchdown on a kickoff. 4. Mt. St. Charles vs. Classical-19-12. Classical lost its Hrst game this day. An off day I guess. 5. Lockwood vs. Classical-13-12. This was one of the closest of games, with both teams evenly matched. Lockwood got the only point after touchdown, thus giving her the game. 6. Westerly vs. Classical-7-13. Another victory for Classical, with West- erly giving very good opposition. 7. West Warwick vs. Classical-13-O. Classical threatened West Warwick a few times, and held her better than any other team. Tucker's line-bucks and Pisher's trotting, sup- ported by the Classical line, held the cham- pions to a 13-0 score. 8. Woonsocket vs. Classical-7-13. Classical closed its 1937 season by defeat- ing Woonsocket 13-7. Although other names, too numerous to mention, were con- tributing factors to the team's success, we mustn't forget them. THE CADUCEUS The caduceus originated in the prehistoric times in Greece. Hermes or Mercury. in Greek and Roman mythology, was the messenger of the Gods, and the patron of commerce and of peace. His staff was of olive wood with two serpents coiled about it and with two Wings at the top. According to some legends, the serpent was sacred to Aesculapius and Hygeia as a symbol of health, apparently because it changes its skin periodically and so is an emblem of restored vitality. 54 'A Q 'R 'R 'R 'R Indoor Track -- 1938 Top Rowfffooper, Swanson, Keppler, Nlacdougalcl, McMurtrie, Bellin, Cinqucgrann, Bell, Third Row--Coppa, Zangari, Perrotta.

The following week, due to their strength in the running events. the Classicalites were able to overtake Lockwood and Aldrich to capture first place in a triangular meet with these teams. Ed Perrotta, who tied for first place in the high jump. and proved the class of the hurdle field. shared premier honors for Classical with Howie Bander, the winner of the 40 and 300-yard dashes. On March 5. the Purple and White repeat- cd their triumph of a year ago by defeating the other class B contenders in a meet held at the Auditorium. Stan Tcath and Coppa shone for Classical. The former won the 600- yard dash by establishing a new meet record, while the latter took first place in the 40- yard dash and second in the standing broad jump. Ralph Lewis and Ed Perrotta aided ma- terially in their team's triumph by picking up points in the running high jump. Lewis also took third place in the 45-yard hurdles. The most important event of the meet was the relay race between Lockwood and Classi- cal. The Pond-Streeters were ahead in the first two legs when Weisman took the torch for Classical and Davide for Lockwood. On the near turn, Weisman went up on the boards and the Lockwood runner elbowed his way past the Classicalite. but the inspect- ors declared Davide's act a foul, thus causing the Lockwood relay runners to be disquali- fied. Due to the judges' decision, Classical gained the few important points that meant victory. Hockey Because of graduation and lack of ability to score, Classical High School's hockey team had a poor season. Graduation, largely re- sponsible for the poor showing of the squad, took the majority of the team's veterans, while the Purple's failure to score resulted in several games being lost by one goal.

Classical showed its best form of the sea- son in the game with Warwick, After play- ing ine defensive hockey in the first period, the Classical defense slipped for a minute in the next quarter, when Thayer of War- wick took possession of the puck in his own territory, carried it into the Classical, and shot a pass to his teammate, Chenevert, who sent the rubber by goalie Brayton. The rest of the game was very close, but at the end of the final quarter Classical was on the short end of a 1 to 0 score. In spite of the unfortunate season, praise should be given to Raymond Brayton for his fine defensive work, and to Joseph Hand for his courageous playing. Although graduation will strike again at next year's team, we ex- pect an improved Classical hockey squad. which will be built about Raymond Brayton and Paul Cavanaugh. Hi-Y The officers of the club as elected for the 1937-38 season are as follows: William Tukey, President: Ralph Lewis, Vice-Presi- dent: Harry Hill. Treasurer, and Henry Tingley, Secretary. New members were voted into the club at the opening of the season, and plans for the year were formulated. The club is sponsoring a gym program for Classical boys at the Y. M. C. A., which has met with great success. Competition with the Hi-Y clubs of Cran- ston, Hope, Central. and East Providence in swimming and other sports is a feature of the program. Approximately once every month the clubs of the various schools meet together to be addressed by a prominent speaker on some topic of interest to the high-school student. The club is anticipating a successful spring season and looking forward to its annual trip. the last one having been down the bay to Hope Island. 56 'R R F5 'R 'R Q Basketball -- 1938 Top Row--Poole, Assistant Manager: Andruskiewicz.

Among these were: The games with Mt. St. Charles and Aldrich, and the sparkling playing of Frank Bellino. In the encounter with the Saints, Classi- cal scored a major upset victory. At the end of the first quarter, the Purple and White trailed l0-6, but in the next stanza Classical completely dominated the play, and knotted the score at I5 all. The lead changed hands frequently throughout the third period. With the score standing at 24-24, and with but five minutes of playing time remaining in the final quarter, the Classicalites proceeded to run wild against the I-lilltoppers by making nine points to put Classical back in the win- ning column. The closest and one of the most interest- ing games of the season was played with Aldrich at the city gymnasium. The visitors had the edge at the Hnish of the first stanza, 7-3. but field goals by Bellino. Romano, and Andruskiewicz put Classical in the running at half-time by tying the score at 9-9. Onlv three points were scored in the next period, om er : immons. but fortunately they all went in the Pond- Streeters' scoring column. ln the Hnal quar- ter, Aldrich tried in vain to tie the score, and the result was a l4-l3 victory for the Purple and White. Captain Frank Bellino's fine goal-shooting classified him as one of the better players of the league, and entitled him to the honor of being the second highest scorer in Class B. Graduation taking but a few of the regulars. the followers of the game predict a more suc- cessful season for the Classicalites next year. Moonbeams Starting on their journey long.

The Classical High fencing team has had a better season than usual this year. There are three men on the regular team. Robert DelGiudice. Louis Pieri, and Bill Samos, and two substitutes. Ered Irving and Albert Blanck. Their first match was with Central High, whom they swamped by a 9-O victory. Next the team battled with the Brown Uni- versity Ereshmen, but were slightly overcome by a 5-4 victory in favor of the Bruins. In the East Providence-Classical match, the for- mer defeated the purple by three points. the Hnal score being 6-3. Louis Pieri, one of the most outstanding players of the Classical team, placed third in the individual state match: and, since the first and second posi- tions were won by East Providence fellows. he obtained the city championship. It is possible that our fencing team may have a chance in winning the state title before the year is over. Was MCALEER's MIND ON GREECE? Miss Gregory: lVlcAleer, what were the Syrtes?

With Simeone as captain and Mr. Thompson as coach, the team made a fine showing in each meet. The first contest of the season was with Providence Trade School at Roger Williams Park. The score was l0-36 in favor of Trade. Radoccia, Baffus. Deacutis, Paparelli. and McMutrie were the first Eve Classical runners to complete the run.

Again Ron- zio and Keppler led their team-mates. Girls' Senior Basketball The Senior team climaxed a rather success- ful season by a victory over the Hope Street sextet, The score. '52-22, was the most im- pressive of the year, as were also the decisive- ness and accuracy of the whole team. Making up a net average of Hfty per cent of games won, were the tall-ies of two games which were forfeited to Central, 36-14 and l9-16, and the winning score in a 25-I5 game with Hope. High scorers were Captain Priscilla Beaudet and Evelyn Prince, followed closely by Phyllis Grossman, Margaret Cumming, and Ruth Ebelke. For stellar guard perform- ances they had Co-captain Hope McKinnon, Helen McLaughlin, and Mabel Bargamian. Girls, Swinming Team The girls' swimming team meets every Monday from 4:00 to 5:00 at the Olney- ville Boys' Club. There are nine members of the team coached by Joseph Watmough.

Girls who gave outstanding performances this season were: at defense. Evelyn Prince, goal, and Jeanne Pyne, halfback: offensive, Janina Barlowski, Dorothy O'Leary, and Helen Armbrust, forwards. Next year. these girls, with the well- trained members of this year's Beginners' Team. ought to win great success. Hi-Tri The Hi-Tri is a club which is Open to all girls of Classical High.

Girls' Junior Basketball The Junior basketball team started an- other successful season, winning their first game from Hope, 46-8. These champions of last year, under the skillful leadership of Cueninah Bilowsky, captain, use their inev- itable teamwork, which never fails them. Outstanding players on the team are Helen Armbrust, Ruth Webb. Dorothy O'Leary, Jean Pyne, and Marie Ballerino.

There was a young man named Lombardie, Who at stopping his car was quite tardy. When he stepped on the gas, A red light he passed, Then with tweezers they picked up his body. There was a man named Salarem. In Arabia. he owned a small harem. He wanted some more, But he always did snore, So all he could do was to scare 'em. There was a girl named Sally, Who used to live in Hope Valley. She met Sam O'Grady, Who made her his lady, And now she lives on our alley. A grouch on the W. P. A.

EPSTEIN, 10A A boy, about seventeen, is walking down Westminster Street. We know he goes to Classical, because he has four books under one arm, and looks as if he needed more sleep. He is thinking, as most of us have done at one time or another, about all this hard work for a scrap of paper. This is commonly re- ferred to as a Classical diploma. While thinking, he continually shifts the books from one arm to the other every few minutes, at- tempting to find a comfortable position. He persistently thinks, What good has Classical done me? Now, he is in front of a bank. Out of the bank run two men, about fifteen feet ahead, rushing for a waiting car. Why, one has two heavy looking bags, and the other has a-yes, it's a machine gun. As they get hurriedly into the auto, the machine gun slips and dropsinto the street. In a fraction of a min- ute, the robbers are in the now moving car, before the Classicalite realizes that a bank robbery is taking place before him. Astound- ed, but, of course, not frightened-not a Classicalite-he drops his books. The ma- chine suddenly stops, and the three get out of the auto with their hands high and shout- ing, Don't shoot. We give up. Our hero thinks: These fellows are crazy. Nobody shot. Why, the books. That's it! Quick as a flash his hand goes into his pocket, using his forefinger as a gun. He speaks. All right. I won't shoot, but don't try any- thing funnyf' He said it just the way he had heard it over the radio. When he was a little boy, of course. We know he hasn't the time to listen to Dick Tracy and the rest of them any more. The first robber mutters, We wuz jus having fun. Honest, kid, let us go. Yeah, seconded the next one, We wuz havin fun. We was only playing cops 'n robbers. The third seemed disinclined to speak. Our big hero again questions, How about the machine gun? Oh, er-dat wuz to make it more real. Y'know when you're playin cops 'n rob- bers like we were, it's more fun if you have somp'n real in it-much more fun, affirmed The money? 'AWe wuz going to give it back. Yeah, we wuz gonna give da dough back. It's so much fun to see how dey look when ya give 'em a good scare. What a laugh! It must be very amusing. Yea, an it's funny, too. Hmm, thought aloud the Classical stu- gentv, You have good, in fact, perfect ali- is. Then, you're gonna let us go? i'On one condition-that you do my 'Vir- gil.' SureI You tell us where we kin find him, and he won't be in your way no more. We does a good job, too. We don't leave no clues nowhere. Holy smokes! If you had been around some thousands of years ago, it would have been swell, but it's too late now. Here's what I mean, Can any of you translate Latin well? 'AI don't know what ya mean, but we do a heck of a good job at bumpin' off any- body. At that moment, police rushed up to the bankrobbers, and reporters, photographers, and fame surrounded our hero. The flash of bulbs and the questions flung at him from all sides were stupefying. That night everybody had heard about the boy who had remained calm and un- frightened while a desperate criminal pointed a machine gun at him: who had cleverly dropped his books, knowing the noise would sound like the report of a gun: who had fooled the outlaws into believing he had a pistol: who had scared the robber into drop- ping his gun, but the newspapers failed to say how: who had known that these men had robbed four banks and killed two people, but still had risked his life to bring them to justice. That same night, the hero of the city, while reading a certain story over and over, and while admiring a certain picture in a dozen newspapers, thought again, What good has Classical done me? This time he had a different answer. He'd be an ordinary boy tonight if it weren't that the Second, he had been coming home from Classical. October 18-Greek Class-Miss Gregory: Who was 'I'hetis?

Stanley Garn, our fun-loving youngster. seems to be the one and only Daniel Webster Classical ever had. Can you imagine the Debating Club without him? Not to be taken too lightly, is the way we established two precedents in the history of Classical this term. First, we were the only class of Juniors ever to produce a play, and. secondly, we were the first class ever to pro- duce a play written by a student.

In Rhode Island, there are chapters only in the Priory School, Portsmouth, the Moses Brown School, and Classical High School, and we consider it a great honor to be a member of this distinguished organization. because of its high standards. Classical is also very proud of the fact that when we joined the Cum Laude Society in 1921, we were the first public school to be given an invitation of membership. Eligibility is based purely on scholarship, and it is possible for one-fifth of the entire Senior Class to be elected to membership. The first tenth with the highest scholastic records are of Summa Cum Laude rank, and are usually elected in l2B, and the second tenth with records most closely following are of Magna Cum Laude rank, being elected in IZA. It should be the aim of every true Classicalite to become a wearer of the Cum Laude key.

Moreover, the entire cast, from the four leads, George Williams, Chelis Bursley, LeRoy Jordan, and Gertrude Ruch, down to the sternly stiff and silent hussars, Jack Conk- lin and Joseph Dickens, deserves praise for an honest and convincing performance. THE 12A CLASS SUPPER January '38 held their class supper in the Indian Room of the Narragansett riotel, Jan- uary 27, 1938. The committee in charge consisted of Robert Cooney, Christine Ro- telli, Joslin Berry and Elizabeth Meek, as- sisted by the class ofiicers. Robert Cooney was toastmaster of the event, at which Mr. Paine, Miss Allen, and Miss Shein spoke. Immediately after the graduation exer- cises at Classical High School, notwithstand- ing a pouring rain, the entire class walked, rode, or swam Qas the case might bej to the Narragansett. In the highest spirits, released from the admiring eyes of friends and rela- tives, January '38 prepared for a gala eve- ning. Not only did they have their cake QBrownies-to be technicalj but they were to eat it too. By 6:30 nearly all had arrived at the lobby of the Narragansett and were playing a game called Find the Cloakroom Reserved for Classical. At 6:45 it was finally decided to use the main check-room. After having sewed torn gowns, powdered noses, etc., the girls joined the boys in the upper lobby. There a bit of impromptu entertainment was furnished by Irving Chucnin and Herman Sugarman, after which everyone went into dinner. The dinner was excellently chosen and well served. Ruby Newman's orchestra played during and after it. The Class Prophecy, which was read by Joslin Berry, was accompanied by much good-natured shouting. Chelis Bursley's toast to the boys and Calvin Fisher's toast to the girls, al- 'R 'R 'R though not the acme of versification, were very entertaining. Virginia Lord declared that she had the best time of her life. The class is still wondering if she is a hypocrite. for her heels came off twice, she fell down the steps, and got locked in the girls' room at the Narragansett. At 11:30, fit was still raining, by the wayj the entire class went to the Empire Theater, where Mr. Romano treated them to a midnight show. Four Classicalites way down front led the group in cheering for anybody and everything. The show was over by the next morning, and everyone went home, happy and tired. The moral of this story is Never miss your class suppersf' POEM The leaf fluttered from the tree top. It danced lightly with the wind for a moment, And then sank into the gutter, Awaiting the call of the wind For its encore. THE JUNIOR PLAY On November 19, l937, the Junior Class established a precedent in the history of our school, when they staged the three-act com- edy i'Stuck, at Gilbert Stuart Auditorium. It was the first time that an original play by a student was ever presented by an organiza- tion or class of Classical. Stuck was writ- ten by the talented junior, William Weston. The orchestra and committees were composed of members of the Junior Class. The plot of the play revolves around the Muller family in their humble home in Pet- rokovostrovkonityenberg, Germany, and the appearance of a gum-chewing American youth who immediately throws their daily routine off balance by falling in love with the daughter, Lousita. The cast was Dorothy Petrie, Francis Cooney, Gerald Jacobs, Mary Grosse, Hope Weeks, Maria Ballirano, Elea- nor Francis, Betty Brooks, Frank Miller, Eileen McCarthy, and Dante Votolato. If the ripples of laughter, which swept through the auditorium as the Juniors per- formed, carried any weight, we may indeed look forward to a noteworthy Senior play in 1939. A great deal of credit must be given to Mrs. Piche for her able direction. December l-N. T. G. with two pretty members of his troup. December 3-Anthony Essay Writing.

R 'R 'R 'R 'R 'R 79 Bugle -and Drum Corps . . , N., K. Under the excellent leadership of Maurice A. Lewis, the Bugle and Drum Corps has again marked a year of improvements. Many new students have found the Corps to be a pleasant activity. The addition of a bell lyre to the equip- ment has been recognized as a great advance- ment. The bell lyre is, exactly as the name implies. a lyre having chimes instead of strings. These chimes are played with mal- lets similar to those used on the xylophone. Because of the clarity of its tone it may be heard plainly above all other instruments. The addition of more new equipment is being seriously contemplated. Restricted in practice by the lack of a field in which to drill. Frank E. Donilon, Jr.. the Corps' able drum major. has, nevertheless. put the Corps through its paces. Donilon's successor, after his graduation this year. has not yet been determined. The Corps, resplendent in their purple and white uniforms. have been seen at football games, baseball games, and track meets, cheer- ing the teams on to victory. The Orchestra The program played by the orchestra for the January graduation consisted of Selec- tions from Moldauf' a tone poem by Sme- tara, an outstanding Bohemian composer, and several marches. The concert-master, Joseph Malignaggi, conducted the orchestra at one of our assem- blies, excellent experience for any aspiring young musician. The Classical orchestra will be represented by a few of its outstanding members in the All Rhode Island High School Orchestra at its annual concert. Under the able direction of Mr. Lewis. the orchestra is making rapid progress to- wards perfection. December 0-Miss Sears likens Henry Hoye to Virgil's Sybil-so irresponsible.

The paper is a member of the Rhode Island Scholastic Press Asso- ciation and of the International Quill and Scroll Society. The A'Review has a very high subscrip- tion rate for a high-school paper, since prac- tically all of the student body and faculty buy the paper. Competition for possession of the plaque presented by the paper to the room with the highest percentage of pur- chasers is so keen that a room must have well over 1005? subscription to even be in the running. This fall at an assembly, the plaque was presented to Room l for the year l936- 37, and next fall will be awarded to the win- ner for this year.

The Hrst part of this purpose the Dramatic Society has generously fulfilled, with its presentation in '35 of three onefact plays: in '36 of Radio Mysterymz in '37 of The Charm Schoolng in '38 of a domestic comedy depicting the tragedies and comic aspects of hard times, entitled Shirt Sleeves. with the following leads: Phyllis Grossman Jean Miner Virginia Skonberg Gladys Basse Dorothy Petrie Richard Turner Vs'ebster Iittlefield kVillian1 Weston Gustave I.eckney Robert Orsini This past year, under the resumed leader- ship of its chosen director.

Dur- ing November a mock trial was held. in which the defendant was Rhode Islands famous rebel, Thomas Wilson Dorf. On December 10, two Classical teams took part in the ses- sion of the Model Congress at R. l. State. Two outside debates were held during the year, one with Central Evening High School during January, and one with St. lVlary's Academy during February. On March 7, two Classical teams debated the subject of a Junior College for Providence before a meeting of the Washington Park Business lVlen's Club. Since many of the members of the Society are graduating this year, it is hoped that there will be suflicient talent in the other classes to bold Classical's team again next year.

Angell, with the accompaniment of Alice Teachman. Before the Christmas vacation, according to custom, the combined Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs helped to fill the faculty and stu- dents with Christmas cheer by singing carols in the school corridors. During the last few vears. the clubs have gone over to the Admin- istration Building to sing for the school offi- cials. This spring the Girls' Glee Club pre- sented a very successful program before the school at both assemblies. The songs used were: The Two Clocks, by James H. Rog- ers. and Sun and the Warm Brown Earth. by Gena Brascombe. Although the club will soon be losing its older members, there is a long list of fresh- men waiting to carry on for them, and make the club as successful in the future as it has been in the past. i Miss Gregory: What is the meaning of Chaos?

Ebelke I've always doubted the existence of the man whom the song-writer claims ain't got rhythm. If the slow music of a waltz leaves his emotions cold, certainly swift-tempoed swing music must tug at his primitive emo- tions and make his unwilling feet at least keep time to the music. But if there is a man whose pulse the deep throbbing of the bass drum cannot quicken even the least little bit. it is no wonder he is the loneliest man in town, for he must be the coldest, most emo- tionless, of human beings. Swing music is a fast, jazzy, sensual type of music that appeals to the primitive emo- tions of man. The throbbing notes of the drums, or tom-toms, of the African negroes may be considered swing music. It is not in- credible that music which stirs dark-skinned savages should stir civilized people. People will never be more than nine-tenths civilized: the other tenth will always be primeval, and therefore will be stirred by the same things that stir the savage. There is a queer thing about this uncivilized tenth of man: when it is aroused, it seems to dominate the other nine-tenths. For instance, if an orchestra swings from a waltz to a hot number, a dignified ballroom degenerates into a room full of hopping, kicking, twisting people, among whom jungle savages would feel per- fectly at ease. In fact, if the dancers' skins were blackened, and if their garments were exchanged for the skins of the savages, it would be diflicult to pick out the civilized The Unknown Soldie One cold autumn day in 1921, in a little chapel somewhere in France, a strange ceremony took place. There were gathered there a group of military men, officers who had played an important part in the recent war, men who had directed the course of armies in battle. These men had assembled to see the selection of America's Unknown Soldier, who was to become the representa- tive of fifty thousand Americans killed on foreign battlefields during the World War. There were three caskets placed before the January Zl-English Class. Miss Day, to class while anything it touches? I' 4-n ones from the uncivilized. The popularity of swing music is due in part to the fact that it is so easy to dance to. From my observations, this is what happens: you get out on the floor and let yourself go. If you want to kick, you kick: if you want to hop, you hop: if you want to dip or shuffle or sway, you dip or shuffle or sway, always trusting to luck that your part- ner is doing the same thing. Swing music naturally appeals more to the young than to the old. Just watching the antics of a young couple swinging it is enough to tire out an elderly person. Besides the fact that dancing to this type of music is unquestionably much too strenuous for old people, the younger ,generation would not allow it, They would raise shocked objec- tions if they saw their grandmothers and grandfathers Htruckin' or hopping through the Big Apple. When one is sixteen, one may swing it with propriety, but when one is sixty . . . After all, what is the use of objecting to swing music? It is as much a part of this age as the minuet was of our grandmother's age. That age was slow and decorous: so there arose the minuet, which typified the grace and stateliness of the age. Our age is fast-moving, so swing music has arisen to give us an opportunity to dance as rapidly as we live. We cannot escape from swing music unless we go back to the eighteenth century, so we may as well grin and bear it. by Henry J. Hoye altar, with bodies of men so mutilated that it was impossible to identify them. Slowly, deliberately, pondering the great decision he was about to make, an American oliicer approached the coffins. As he stood before the mortal remains of three of those who had cheerfully given their lives for an ideal, he became aware of the tremendous responsibility that was his, of the duty in- vested in him to choose the man who was to lie enshrined at Arlington, as the symbol of the patriotic sacriiice of the manhood of a sriidying poem, Silver : What does Moonshine do to Reports!-Selma Schlossberg was disappointed in her all-A report.

There was a brief moment of tense- ness in the small chapel as the officer hesitated. These men who caught their breath had themselves seen soldiers blasted by grenades, impregnated with shrapnel, and raped by the devastating staccato of machine guns. The hand of the oflicer extended, and touched one of the caskets. The selection had been made. The ceremony was over. The casket which had been chosen was placed on a destroyer bound for America. The Unknown Soldier was coming home: home to the land he had left with bands playing, flags waving, and multitudes cheer- ing: to America, where somewhere a mother had waited for a son who had not returned, a mother who perhaps wondered whether it could be her boy whom a nation was hon- oring. On Armistice Day, 1921, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was dedicated. President Harding presided at the service of consecra- tion of this memorial to America's World War dead. Who was this representative of America's soldiers? Was he one of those intrepid youth who, excited by the apparent glory and hero- ism of War, volunteered eagerly? Was he a boy just graduated from high school, who hastened to make the great adventure? Ur was he a mature man, one who had known responsibility, who could not be deluded by the false glitter and panoply of warfare? Did he come from a great Eastern Univer- sity, or from the farm-lands of the West? Had he left a home of great wealth, or had he lived in a poverty-stricken hovel? It is only allowed for us to speculate: we cannot partake in that which belongs to God alone. But somewhere in America there are loved ones of his, somewhere there are those who cherish the memory of one dear to them who HANDS The hands of baby are so small They do not reach around her ball. Our father's hands are large and strong. Guiding our family their whole life long. Dear mother's hands are white and neat. For she our guests each day must greet. These are the hands with which I live. What more to me could my God give? MARJORIE SMITH 'RRR made the supreme sacrifice. Today, nineteen years after the end of the World War, we are again in the midst of a troubled world. We see that ideal for which this man fought threatened by the arrogant challenge ot dictators to democ- racies: we see two great ideologies preparing to make the world a bloody battleground once more. We see democracy threatened by both of these armed camps, the one trying to spread its pernicious doctrines throughout countries which still have the benefits of free speech, and the other continually alarming the world by its periodic threats and self- suflicient nationalcsm. That fundamental right of all civilized peoples to free assembly and public manifestation of opinion, is today in greater jeopardy than ever before. What would the Unknown Soldier say if he could be alive today. if he could see Amer- ica and the world twenty years after? Would he feel a sense of bitter disappointment at the realization of the fazt that the world is still striving for the objectives for which he gave the greatest treasure that a man can give? He probably would. However, he would have a profound conviction that he had ac- complished something toward the ideal of a universal brotherhood of nations. The tragedy of the Unknown Soldier is the tragedy of thousands of American men who have lost their lives in the destruction of war. It is the tragedy of fruitful careers cut short, of hopes blighted, of the sadness of afflicted dear ones. As we stand at the grave of the Unknown Soldier, either in fact or in spirit, let us pay homage to those men who died for the ideal of freedom in all lands, and let us resolve that never again shall American youth be sacrificed in the frightful carnage of war.

Q Q Q 'A 'R Q 89 Widder Jenks' Pipe By WILLIAM WESTON Wren River was on the rampage again! Fed by Veny Mountain rivulets, growing larger and larger at every mile, it swirled by the squat little town of Jenksville with curl- ing, eddying waters. Already it had leaped over the flood-wall, tearing, splintering, sub- merging everything in its path. Though Jenksville lay perched on the top of a small knoll, the waters already were reaching for it with hungry fingers. Hastily the citizens of Jenksville had banded together and, using all available help, started to throw up a wall of sand-bags. Man after man, sagging under the heavy wad of a sand-bag thrown over his shoulder, filed up to the wall in an endless chain. Humph. Widder Jenks remarked to me as we stood watching the men file by. Them men sure resemble a passal o' ants. 'N' look how they're scurryin' 'round. Look at Ethan Jones! I never seed him move so fast in all my born days. What's everybody so skeered of? Flood? Humph-'tain't no flood. Why back in '84 I- I interrupted the Widder here. just because I had already heard of the flood of '84, and secondly, because I wanted to tell her the necessity of that wall of sand-bags holding The Widder took the stem of her yellowcd pipe from her mouth in order to understand my statement better. Do you mean to say. she queried, if'n that wall don't stand agin the force of the river. the water'll wash the town 'n' the whole kit-'n-kaboodle of us to Kingdom Come? I nodded. Well, I swan. she said. with some sur- prise. and spat conclusively. The rain had recommenced. and alonf' with it could be heard the faint rumble of thunder in the distance. After hurrying the Widder into her coat, we soon joined the res' of the citizens of Jenksville, who were hud- dled into a small group. I found an old barrel. and rolled it over to the Widder. I-Iere's a seat, I said. Thankee. son. Thanks mightily, she re- plied. and tapped the bowl of her worn pipe January 27-30-Mid-vear Recess. Hip, hip, hooray! against the barrel. As long 's I have my pipe and a place to rest my bones I'm satisfied. she continued. Putting the pipe in her mouth. she climbed atop the barrel. You go down 'n help those men with that wall, she said. 'cause they're afraid of the Hood. Flood? Huh, why way back in '84 I- but I fled before she was able to continue. The rain poured down with a stinging speed, lashing the river into a frothy white- ness. The thunder in the distance grew more menacing. I raced towards the river. Meet- ing the men returning to the town, I looked at them questioningly. The wall's all finished. son, said the sheriff. Have you collected all the people together, as I told you? he added. Yes, sir, I said, they're all waiting fer you, too. Well, the wal1's all finished, he growled all that's left now is the waiting. Joining the rest of the group. I sat beside Widder Jenks. who was contentedly puffing on her pipe. The words of the sheriff kep' ringing in my ears. All that's left is the waiting. I gazed at the white, strained faces around me. I heard a child whimper, heard Granny Sykes mumbling to herself, and above all the furious roar and hiss of the river. All were waiting. Waiting for what? Either life or death! But with calming force I heard the Widder snort disgustedly and mumble to herself. Flood? Huh, ain't like the one in '84- The water's rising! the sheriff suddenly shouted. Hurriedly I helped Widder Jenks rise. We followed the citizens to a small high square of land not far from the wall, and there gazed with strained faces as the water started to lick at the bottom row of bags. Will the wall hold? I asked the sheriff. It'll hold if the current don't make any of those bags shift. he said. If one of those bags in the bottom rows shifts-the whole wall will collapse.

The thun- der roared about us, and with a roar the water swept towards the wall. With a ter- rific impact it hit against the wall. We strained forward. The Water rose with light- ning rapidity, as the pressure against the wall grew greater and greater. Then with sicken- ing horror I saw one of the bags in the bot- tom row begin to shift. Look! Look! I screamed. That bag is moving! A shriek of terror rang through the air. A wedge! Find some sort of a wedge! cried the sheriff. Madly, feverishly, the people sought a stick for a wedge. But the rains had swept the ground clear of sticks. and the people groped.in-vain. I happened to look up while the others were searching. I saw the Widder, puffing still on her pipe, hastening towards 'R'R 'R the wall as fast as her rheumatic legs could carry her. WidderI Widder, come back, I yelled, for I knew that at any minute the wall might give away, pouring a deluge of water upon her. As the others sought a wedge so that the Wall would hold, I saw the Widder, not heeding my call, reach the wall and jam her pipe as a wedge between the shifted bags. Wait! wait! I shouted to the others. The Widder's found a wedge! The water pounded against the wall, but the bag. wedged firmly by the Widder's pipe, held stubbornly. The people shouted and screamed with joy, and rushed towards the Widder. It warn't nothin', said the Widder. It warn't nothin' to get skeered of. Flood? Huh, why back in '84, I- but the story of the flood of '84 was drowned out by the re- jo'cing shouts of the people. Who Has The Floor? KATHRYN O'CONNOR, 6 Ann placed her Vergil's Aeneid and a movie magazine on a table beside Cicero's Orationsf' She was very tired. It had been a hard day at school. As she sat down. with a sigh, in a nearby chair. she was startled by a booming voice. Looking up, much to her surprise, Ann recognized Cicero, as he stepped out of one of the books on the table. Fellow citizens,- Hey, can't somebody keep that guy quiet? squeaked another voice. This time it was Charlie MacCarthv, who made an ap- pearance. He emerged from the magazine.

All in one breath! What a man! What a man! This one-sided conversation was inter- rupted then by the arrival of another person. From between the pages of Vergil's Aeneid glided a beautiful woman. Her loveliness was enhanced by her tall stateliness. Ann felt that she was in the presence of a queen. The sudden appearance of such a woman was almost too much for MacCarthy, but he sur- vived. He tried to stride gallantly toward her, but stumbled over a pin that lay in his way. May I assist vou. Miss a-a-?

As LJat's parents had been rather poor, he had never been able to have any toys of his own: now that he could afford it, Pat saw to it that his boy had everything he wanted. I really should have got him something useful, Pat mused. ' He ought to have books, or something educational. I don't want him to spend all his life chasing public enemies or dodging bullets, as I do. If half the gangsters in Chicago had been given a useful education when they were youngsters, my job would be much easier. Take Sammy Benno for instance. He was brought up in the slums-say! that guy got out last week. Wonder why he hasn't tried to get revenge? Oh well, maybe he's reformed. When I pulled him in, he told me that he would go straight if he got the chance. All the kids at the party had the time of their lives, and Jim was tickled with his train, skis, and other presents. He was also pleased with a handsome desk outfit includ- ing pen, pencils, letter-opener, blotter, and several bottles of ink in various colors. There was no card attached to the gift, however. and neither Pat nor Anne had any idea as to who could have sent it. When the last child had left, and Jimmie had dragged himself off to bed, there was no doubt left in the weary father's mind as to whether the party had been a success. It must have been. The room looked as if a hurricane had struck it. His enthusiastic son had tried to do a little of everything: the train tracks had been run alongside the table on which the various pieces of the mysterious desk set had been scattered: Jimmie had evidently just finished an unrecognizable picture of a jeep, for the bottle of red ink was still uncovered, and was dangerously near the edge of the table. Pat stretched himself out full length on the floor beside the table, and began to play with the train. Five minutes later he was sound asleep. fContinued on Page 955 Who Has The Floor? fContinued from Page 905 is her name, Cicy? You ought to know. She came out of a Latin book.

There is some- thing about a summer evening in such places that is personal, intimate. Strangers pass, and they are no longer strange. Noise strikes the air, and yet it is quiet. We were headed for the brown wood drugstore, with the in- tention of filling our pockets with candy. As we stood in the dusk-dimmed store be- fore the glass-topped case, the sound of many excited voices caused us to look up. There. bursting through the open doorway, was a man, a plump-bodied, round-cheeked, pink- headed, valiantly gay little man. And ac- companying him was a small army recruited from the village young. There were broad ones, narrow ones, high ones, low ones and trying madly to bring up the rear was a tod- dler with her scraps of clothes flying about in a fashion which suggested that she had already been undressing for bed when the call came. The group, as it massed into the store, broke rank, some sitting along the fountain at the side farthest from the door. But most of them crowded up as near as could be done to their little man, who had been swept into a chair at one of the small tables. Up onto his lap climbed the toddler, who had finally, in triumph, made her way to the front lines. She snapped the bright suspenders sliding limply on the little man's shoulders, and cooed at the gathering. Now the startled proprietor came out from his hiding-place, to which he had fled in fear at the first sound of running feet. From his open mouth we heard, for the first time since we had known him, not a word. From the depths of the crowd the little man spoke in tones of magnificent authority, while the toddler, standing up on his lap, explored the creases in his face with her fin- gers. A double strawberry ice-cream cone for every one of my friends, Jasper. The proprietor looked wildly happy. Not being cynical in nature, he had a beautiful faith in mankind. And besides, the mob gave him no time for reliection. C'mon get going, were the cries, and those sitting along his route gave him gentle little pushes toward the back of the fountain. Others of them were stamping on the floor with their heavy boots, beating upon the tables with their knuckles, and sending forth shrieking whistles. As the proprietor topped each cone with the ice-cream, it was taken at once from his grasp, and passed from one person to the next, so that for five minutes the room seemed to glow with bobbing pink lights. After- wards a short silence followed, while each one licked lovingly at his ice-cream. The little man, with a dreamy smile, wiped be- tween crunches, the sticky chin of the tod- dler with a silk handkerchief which had been dangling out behind him, in his rear pocket. When the last of the cones had disappeared from view, the children began to cheer the little man with desperate voices, hoping for another round of double strawberrys. But. evidently, the little man had other plans for the evening. After a final wipe at the tod- dler's chin, he arose. While all watched with eyes still eager, he trotted briskly over to the proprietor, who was hastily trying to count every one present and to multiply the result by ten, for he was a business man as well as a humanist. The little man was impatient at these figurings, and reaching into his wal- let, he pulled out a well-folded ten dollar bill, which, with a snap of his fingers, he flipped across the counter. This will take care of all of us, he said grandly. And with the change you can treat yourself to a double strawberry cone. The little man started for the door, chuck- ling softly at his bit of a jest. Pressing close behind, his company followed. On down the street they moved, the toddler once more hanging onto the rear. The children, call- ing and singing, spread the news to their less fortunate friends who had only just now heard that here was a friend to man. Sud- denly the little man slowed his walk, mount- ed the worn doorstep of a sinister-appearing shop, and turned about to face his public. Go away, he said. 'AGO home to your mothers. Then with a quick movement the little man slid the screen door open and entered the barroom. February 25-Williams ftranslatingjz He was holding his hands.

She was happy, because she knew that her two men, Pat and young Jimmie, were safe. Ever since their marriage, her fears for Pat's safety had cast a shadow over her otherwise un- troubled married life. Her song was inter- rupted by the sound of a crash in the living- room. Leaving a kettle of water on the stove, she ran toward the front of the apart- ment, crying as she went, Pat, if you've dropped anything on my floor I'll- But the scene that met her eyes was far different from that which she had expected. The terrified woman stood aghast in the door of the living-room. There, beside the minia- ture railroad, Pat was sprawled: the letter- opener was lying beside him in full view: a bright red stain had seeped through his shirt, and there was a crimson pool around the let- ter-opener. Anne quietly fainted. -1: -sf 4: 4- 4: Meanwhile, in the kitchen, the water boiled over the top of the kettle and extin- guished the gas flame. The deadly fumes spread quickly through the small apartment. Red drops still dripped from the bottle, which had rolled under Pat's arm, and on the table, in the space where the bottle of red ink had been, lay a small card which had passed unnoticed. It bore the inscription, -From the reformed crook, Sammy Benno. A South Sea Tale By JosEPH SEIGAL Under cover of dark tropical night, a pleasure yacht steams leisurely along. A din- ner party is gathered in the dining-room. The attention of the group is centered on the ship's doctor, a slight, portly gentleman about fifty. He is speaking: I have spent many years here in the South Seas, and have witnessed many weird ceremonies, and have seen many strange things-such as these evidently harm- less pieces of sugar, indicating with his hand, five cubes spread out on the coffee-table at his side. Picking up two of the cubes, he con- tinues: If any of you were to eat these two cubes, the results would be disastrous. Within a half hour, you would be obsessed with the desire of killing all those about you. His audience is so engrossed in what the doctor is saying that a steward enters un- noticed, and places a tray of cups containing demi-tasse on the coffee-table at the doctor's side. Accidentally, the steward tips over the sugar-bowl. Without attracting attention, he replaces the lumps, and sugars the demi- tasse. Because of their ability to numb the senses, these cubes are of medicinal value. Except for the instinctive desire to kill, which, subconsciously, all human beings possess, this drug is completely effective. After serving the demi-tasse, the steward leaves the room. The effect of this drug wears off only after a very deep sleep, explains the doctor. Al- though it resembles sugar, there are two ma- jor differences between them. Sugar is much more soluble in water, and because of its crystalline structure. the sugar sparkles more brightly under a strong light. Wishing to demonstrate this last point, he reaches for one of the cubes. He turns deathly pale. They are gone! The cubes have dis- appeared! Everyone becomes alarmed. Re- gaining his composure, the doctor speaks first: Be calm, I shall ring for the steward. When the steward enters, the doctor demands, What did you do with the cubes that were on the table? Why, I replaced them in the sugar-bowl, fContinued on Page 985 March 5-Track Meet at Auditorium. The drippiest grinds and the most sedate teachers went wild with the rest.

Though faint at first, it slowly grew And brighter seemed, then nearer drew. And as 1 cast another look 'l he semblance of a man it took. Up to my bed he moved, where I 'l'oo frightened lay to make a cry. No sound he made, but mutely stood And beckoned, quite as if he would That I speak first. And this I did When finally my fear I hid. I spoke, and made this inquiry: what do you here? Who might you be? The spectre stared, then with a moan Replied in eerie monotone: lf I the ghost of Virgil am. From out my world to this of man Come I to take revenge on you Who all my Latin misconstrue, Who've soiled, profaned, misused, defamed My greatest work, 'Aeneid' named, Who ve mispronounced my every word, Proposed translations quite absurd: Read syllables of every song As long. when short, and short, when long. Thus, all in all, you've done me wrong. Three thousand years my soul has lain And twisted, turned, and writhed in pain Whenever some one carelessly Insulted and mistreated me. But you, of all those miscreants, I-Iave been the worst: and now my chance I-las come at last to vindicate Myself and to retaliate. He stopped, then slowly turned his eyes And palms outstretched up to the skies. Then in a voice with pain imbued, For recompense from Jove he sued: Almighty Jupiter, O hurl Your thunderbolt against this churl. Who with malignance tortures me And desecrates my poetry. With these few words and one last stare The brilliance of this phantom's glare Began to fade, and I was soon The only one in that dark room. No words can ever well explain The thoughts which then passed through my brain. First fear, then indignation, fought My mind to ruleg but, as I thought. My heart with deep remorse was wrought. And then at last pure pity came And strove the other thoughts to tame. Success was hers, for to this day No other passion has held sway. For when I do my Latin now, I of poor Virgil think and how His soul rests not in sweet repose, But teems with pain and dreadful woes Whenever I an error make Or any negligent mistake. WILLIAINI L.

Hurry to my cabin, and get my bag! orders the doctor. Their faces strained with suspense and fear, the diners turn suspiciously toward a burly man at the doctor's right who, toying with the knife at his plate, does not notice the glances concentrated on him. As he raises the knife, the intensity that overhangs the room is heightened to its breaking-point. Suddenly, as if awakening from an idle day- dream, he replaces the knife. Everybody sits back in his chair, relieved. The steward enters hastily, and hands the bag to the doctor. He then removes the dishes from the table. Taking the remaining lumps from the sugar-bowl, the doctor says, Let's test this sugarg perhaps nobody has taken the drug after all. Everybody watches anxiously as the doc- tor drops the cubes one at a time, into a glass of water before him. Three have not dissolved, therefore two must have been eaten, says the doctor ner- vously. He fills a hypodermic needle, places it in the center of the table, and says, If any- body shows the least effect of this drug, the others will inject this needle into his arm. Slowly and heavily the time passes. Each looks at his neighbor suspiciously. Ten min- utes drag by. Nobody has moved. All are startled when a match flares up at one end of the table. A guest lights his cigarette with trembling fingers. Ten more minutes drag by. Suddenly, hysterical laughter shatters the silence. The over-wrought guests leap to their feet. There is a scramble for the hypo- dermic needle, but the doctor, hand in pocket, rises slowly from his seat and stays them with a steady voice, mingled with surprise and relief, My friends, fate has been jesting with us this evening.

'R Q FB Q R R 99 Monument To Beauty With sure, measured blows of his hammer, Jean-Baptiste Morcereau chiseled a lump of marble which was slowly taking the form of the hideous head of a grinning gargoyle, des- tined for the western facade of the cathedral. A short distance away, out of the range of flying chips of marble, stood a crowd of idle spectators, who jeered at the curious creation of the carver. Ho, Pierre, exclaimed one, that grin of his strangely resembles yours. Well, Charles, that nose isn't too bad a duplicate of yours, returned Pierre. The comments annoyed Jean-Baptiste, and, turning suddenly, he shouted angrily at the group. Move on, move on. Don't you see I'm busy? Get out of my sight. As the spectators reluctantly turned to go, they mumbled surlily to themselves. To think that Jean was once one of the rabble like us. Now look at him. Just be- cause he has been commissioned to supervise the building of our cathedral of Lontrone, he thinks he can order us about as if he were a count. Jean-Baptiste, pleased at being left alone, and conscious only of the unfinished task be- fore him, continued his work. Faster and faster he hammered, as he strove to complete his work before the oncoming of night. Fi- nally, because it was impossible to see any longer, he gently laid down his tools, packing them carefully in their box, after they had been polished. He had no thought, however, of leaving his beloved cathedral. Why should he? In that miserable hovel that he called home, there was no family to look forward to his home-coming: there were no friends to greet him, nor was there any urgent task there that required his presence. As the stars slowly began to come out, they could be seen twinkling and forming graceful patterns of unlimited beauty around the cold, stark and majestic outlines of the cathedral. They crowned the spires of the towers, which turned to silver under the magic touch of the night. The full moon shone down on the rose-window, casting shadows upon the kneeling figures. Mean- while, Jean-Baptiste dreamed of the two ad- ditional statues that were to be set in their places of honor, before this cathedral, a mir- acle of beauty, could be acclaimed by the whole world as his creation and masterpiece. I am no longer a young man, he mused, but at moments such as these, I feel that it was worth while to have spent a lifetime of seclusion just to have some small part in the creation of this temple of worship. Suddenly Jean-Baptiste was aroused from his reverie by the approach of the night- guard, who showed no surprise at seeing him there. In fact, it would have been unusual for him not to have been there. Well, Jean-Baptiste, don't you think it's about time to be getting along? encouraged the night-guard. It is not permissible to be on the streets of Lontrone at night. With a nod, Jean-Baptiste slowly and wearily traced his steps homeward. Although he was hungry and tired after his day's work, he was not too exhausted to notice the houses of Lontrone, which stood out very plainly to him because of their extreme lack of beauty. His sensitive eyes noticed the poor condition of the thatched roofs as they sagged over the dirty patched walls of the houses. Even the darkness of the night could not conceal their poverty-stricken appearance. As he ap- proached his own hut, he realized that it completely resembled the others. But his small hut was too unimportant an object to bother him, for he was content as long as he had his work. Jean-Baptiste entered his hut and sat down upon a low stool. He ate the few scraps of food on the table, and, as he ate, his mind once more returned to his task. He saw a pic- ture of himself as a little boy of ten, carrying stones to the men who were starting the great work of building the western wing of the cathedral. How awe-stricken he had been then, at the thought of what he might some day see. But he had little thought, at that time, of supervising the completion of one of the linest cathedrals in all Europe. On and on his thoughts went, when suddenly, in the single room of Jean-Baptiste's hut, there ap- April 7-Latin Honors. Miss Bucci: When Caesar said, 'The die is cast,' whom was he going to light?

Slowly Jean- Baptiste gazed around the room as if he no longer recognized it. Who---who are you? he stammered. Where have I seen you before? You re- semble--yes, you are the angels on the facade outside the cathedral. We are far more spiritual than they, Jean- Baptiste, replied the leader. Our mission is a holy one. You have been brought before us to receive your punishment. God has given you a mighty gift with which you are able to create beauty, but in doing your work, you have forgotten that you are supposed to complete a house of worship, not build a house only for beauty's sake. You regard the cathedral only as something on which to expand more and more beauty. Because you realize you have created beauty, you have become vain and selfish by refusing to let your townspeople watch you as you work, by reprimanding your workmen severely for an excusable error, and by refusing to let another help you. Therefore, as your pun- ishment, you shall be stricken blind so that you may no longer see that which you have so lovingly created. Awe-stricken, Jean-Baptiste fell to his knees before the tribunal, with his body racked and tormented by sobs. He cried out to them in an anguished voice. I realize my wrongs, I am blind to everything but beauty, but I cannot help that. It is my entire life. His voice rose higher and higher as he pleaded with his judges. Do not deprive me of the one thing in the world I worship. As they stood unmovingly, he pleaded once more. Then give me one year, only one year to complete my task. I ask no more. Screaming, Jean-Baptiste suddenly jumped to his feet. He looked around his miserable hut in a sort of daze, as if he were in a dif- ferent world. But. as usual, the sun was streaming in through the door, and in the distance he could see the spires of the cathe- dral reflecting the colors of the rainbow as they were struck by the rays. As Jean-Baptiste watched the sun cast its brilliant shades of color upon the cathedral. he lost all remembrance of his strange ad- venture. May 20-Senior Exams. June 3-Senior Prom. Four months passed, with life going on as usual for Jean-Baptiste. He was sublimely happy in the knowledge that one statue was already completed, and the other one would soon be finished. After the completion of the second, there would be an official exhibi- tion for the mayor and other dignitaries of the countryside. With the passing of another month, the work was finished. Today both figures were to be set into their niches. The day dawned clear and bright, with the azure blue sky a perfect setting for the marble cathedral, as it rose high into the heavens. The procession of laughing people, in their gay costumes approaching for the celebration, formed a stirring picture as they looked for- ward to their holiday. Milling about in the square in front of the cathedral, were the rabble who had come to see the edifice which had been started in their grandfather's day. In the grandstand which had been especially constructed for the occasion, sat the nobles and dignitaries, with their ladies in costly and beautiful gowns. The whole square re- sounded with the happy laughter, as poor man and rich man looked forward together to the dedication of their monument of wor- ship. As Jean-Baptiste approached Jacques, his trusted worker, he asked anxiously, Why have they not put the second statue into place? Can you not hear the crowd cheering as it waits for the statue to be set up? But sire, answered the worker, it is in place exactly Where you told us to put it. All your orders have been carried out. Another workman put in, Look above you, Don't you see it? Then Jean-Baptiste Morcereau suddenly remembered. GERALDINE M.
