PERSONALS There were two sides to the question of “Getting a friendly mate to help you translate your Latin.” Miss Hanna apparently chose the negative but we all wish she’d practice what she preaches. Teacher: “What is the difference in meaning between baiser and baisser ?” Goelner: “The first means to kiss.” Teacher: “You seem to be very familar with the term.” Goelner: “I am.” While paraphrasing this section of Deserted Village, “Shall kiss the cup to pass it to the rest,” Bill Mair very disappointedly said, “Gee, I wish I were the cup.” “You can run fast, Eleanor, but you’ll have to go a bit faster to beat Brown, because we saw that he caught up to you the other morn- ing.” With all M iss Musson’s scolding forgetful Muriel Cook never brings both shoe horn and sneakers. She’d forget her head if it weren’t fastened on! Miss Decker: “Give me a concrete example of an inclined plane.” Pupil: A cement driveway leading up to a garage door. “Kessler seems to specialize in Mildreds.” Spindel, the bright light of Room 19, intends to beat all records and graduate in three years. Found!—Pete’s ring,—on Irma’s finger. Although removed from the Polo grounds by 18 miles, the 3-2 fel- lows get first-hand information about the games played there through Hobelman, who rises before breakfast each morning to read the base- ball news. Found last night between third and fourth streets an innocent look- ing man about 35 years old. When first seen he was asking everyone he met where the Senior 4-2 Class was and cried ever and anon for his “Guide book.” sixteen
