0UlNN'5' 007 P GOPN R Would you believe that George Sy- brant, our student council prexy, thinks that a feeble-minded man has the same IQ as that of a normal woman? But this was before that certain girl came into his life. The most eloquent sign of spring recently seen was George holding Betty Wise's hand while they sipped cokes at an uptown drug store. And you know what comes from sipping stulf througir a straw! What can be done about a certain Miss Hall who resorts to blackmail? Let Madge Sneller pass the sentence. fMake it a week at home when the finals are due, Madge.D Steiny thinks that all the girls who whis- per in study hall should serve tea. Possibly a customary habit for gossipers, or is Steiny thirsty? The most clever combination we've seen on the bicycle built for two theory were those two cuties on the same bike, Annagene Heathman and Patty Lester. Right, Dale and Billy? We can think of a better name for teacher Barney Getto. How about Blarney Gettsem? Mr. Snyder advocated in one of his classes recently that to get along in this life we've got to know how to jerk the 1-ight strings. Florine Turman, however, believes that it's essential to know how to string the right jerks! If Mr. Ruff calls you Johnnie when he should have said Suzy, don't be too shocked. He has some new bifocals. Can you fancy Bill Miller NOT singing Deep in the Heart of Texas? tHe hopeslb Had you noticed that .Ruth Akers is subject to Paynes? Marge Fulton remarked one day, I walnted wings. She got them and their owner, too. Wanda Watkins is some gal! She can dream a dream so real that it really happens. Speaking of dreams-Julius Rader had a nightmare when he overslept and forgot his date with Gwen! It has been suggested that Reeves, Rath- bun and Rutter be voted the most quiet girls that ever recited Children's Lit in study hall. We can certainly say that we emvy M.rs. Burnett. She gets her own report cards. Roughly speaking, she can cook her own stew! I heard that some of the kids were cooking with gas at exam time. Evidently the teach- ers didn't think the gas was hot enough. Someone said John Hutton would make a good air raid 'warden because he stays out all night anyway. Mr. Hi1nchee's gum pan has provided no end of amusement for jucos and juco-ettes. At the beginning of class periods he collects the gum, which, incidentally, is all flavors. If you've wondered about the noise near the music room after school, it's only the owners returning for their chews! When Steiny's class gets treated to bub- ble gum by a member who has been absent for a class period, we think he might sing, 'Tm forever blowing bubbles. With the wind shrieking everywhere these days, we've seen some lovely girls looking like Hrhapsodies in repulse. But they're still rhapsodies, aren't they? We were puzzled when Ahniwake Mill- er was preparing her home furnishings lesson recently. She said she'd like to plan her own home. Why, Ahni, is it soon? We'l1 admit that the new college club room is a honey, but you don't get to hear good jokes like Don Ecroyd tells ornly in study hall. Seems that certain couples have some confidential business going on. Kids, be it a military secret? Have you heard about the auto and the dog? Thecar had the right-of-way. Doggone! One foot said to the other, I don't want to walk without you ! If anyone joke mentioned above appears funny to any living person, it is purely co- incidental.

7mcfa '7eam Fifteen J uco boys reported to Coach Daniel Stark for the 1942 track campaign. The Ben- gals officially opened the season on the cin- ders April 14 in a tri-school meet at El Dorado. The Arks took second in this opening meet. In their second meet the juco cindermen placed second in another tri-school meet at Independence. The Tigers captured two firsts in the hurdle events and one first in the mile run. Many seconds and thirds made it possi- ble to finish in the runner-up position well ahead of the third place team of Iola. Last year the Arks always managed to take their share of first place honors, but lacked enough mein to win any seconds or thirds. This year Coach Stark had a fairly well balanced crew of thin-clads who were able to hold their own in most meets of the spring season. Coach Stark had three lettermen around which to build his squad for the season. These lettermen were Benson Quisenberry who specialized in the 440 yard dash, J. T. James, star high jumper and hurdlerg and Charles Jones, juco pole vault artist. The college cindermen were strengthened by the addition of such former Bulldog ath- letes as Don I-Iite and Glenn Williams. The fifteen boys who wore the Orange and Black in the spring campaign were Benson Quisenberry, J. T. James, Charles Jones, Don Hite, Glenn Williams, Bill Morgan, Bob Shaw, Melvin Endicott, Harry Fitzpatrick. Marion Moore, Keith Ellis, George Moreland, James Salsberry, J. C. Faulk, and Newell Larson. I don't see any point to these jokes in here, said the copy reader to the editor. Our readers will, the editor replied. They're smart. Coach: Suppose the ball is on the four-yard line, last down, one minute to play, and we are three points behind. What would you do, James? James: Pd move down the bench further where I could see better. LOAFERS REGZINE IN NE W JUCO LOUNGE This is about a hope that wasn't too far- fetched to become a reality. It might have been written in Wichita or Manhattan or Stillwater. But we happened to be in Ark- ansas City in the junior college, and happened to see something fine and good grow out of the determination of a few students who started out with nothing more than a hope. At the first of the year many of us stu- dents heard talk of a juco lounge, but very few thought the chances of having one here were very good. Hardly anyone did more than to discredit talk of such a place. But to the few who did realize the possibilities of such a venture, Ivan Upson, Bob Morgan, George Sybrant, Dorothy Moody, Betty Wise, D. C. Stark, and a host of others, the student body owes many compliments. No one would have thought that classy club rooms could be converted out of old and seldom used shower and locker rooms that few present-day students knew existed. From the time the first sledge hammer was used on partitions until the formal opening on March 18, less than a month was consumed in cleaning and furnishing the room with di- vans, easy chairs, a radio-phonograph, a ping-pong table, card tables, and an auto- matic soft drink vendor. In addition to the club rooms proper, the old senior high gym, adjacent to the lounge, can be used for dancing at the college socials. Although some of the technical work was done by professionals, most of the painting and earlier work was done by students who donned overalls, paint-smeared pants, and sweat-shirts to do manual labor. All the work was not done by the boys! Girls did man-sized jobs such as carrying trash, keeping the floors somewhat clean, scrubbing the rooms, and finally painting the walls and ceilings. Often they out-did the ef- forts of the boys. Do you know what the little rabbit said when he came of the forest fire? Dooday I been de-furred!!
