B Darwina Dt Marzy I HARDLY know how to begin for it’s really the end (only of writing this column, however). It’ll seem queer not having it in the Spotlight each week, not having people wish they could throw things at me, and not having Hating worship the ground I walk on—Grrr! Guess the theme song for this piece of literature is Time Marches Backwards—or something or other. Feb. ’32 to Jan. ’33. We trooped into the school set to ! e like Julius Caesar who came, saw, and conquered. If I remember correctly we got as far as the “I came, I saw” part. However, Rome wasn’t built in a day so why should we have hurried. Ah, those were the good old days when “specials” at the cafeteria were twelve cents and Bob Whittaker used to smile. (Once in a while he smiles for Irene MacBride). ’Member how the fellows used to lay bets as to how many words Miss Juanita Jones could say a minute? (Gosh, what a mouthful!) The hall scales used to work then too. The most unforget-able incident: Ross Christiansen falling from a chair and receiving a gash on the head. Result? The Ross of today—need I say more? Feb. ’33 to Jan. ’34. 1 can remember when: The girls were beginning to curl their hair (they got a kinky-looking mess) and the lx ys got all dressed up in their new suits and Sunday shoes for the school parties. I don’t think I’ll ever forget their “count system” at the dances. You know—one, two, three; one. two, three; walk, walk. (Not that any of us girls were any better). That was the year the girls wanted something to do at the football games and how they trained. Every tenth period found them in the old bicycle room with Alva Hoffman who tried to show them how to squat and cheer at the same time. Big Junior “news scoops were snatched by Gertie Satterlee. Little did she realize she was going to lx? “snatched” by G. Benzin.—Never to be forgotten moments: Those spent in winking at Jack Berry in Social Studies (Regular cut-ups!) Feb. ’34 to Jan. ’35. Idle chatter on our 9th grade. Maybe our heads did swell a little but gee. we were so much older. This was the time we tried to impress our teachers by checking papers and washing black boards—to say nothing of watering the plants. We spent periods upon |»eriods at our guard posts. Every boy thought he was going to be Commander and every girl planned to be the Commander’s or the Captain’s best girl friend. Julia DeMarco was at the height of her popularity then. Rubber bow ties became all the go and pulling suspenders was a year around sport. Feb. ’35 to Jan. 36. This is the what is generally known as the “Year of Discovery”. (Discovering of each other I mean). There wasn’t a soul who didn’t have •
