THE PARTY UOne Nightn, as I was Nwalkingn, I dropped into this real cool teenage hangs out at the far end of town. As I walked in through the door I noticed there must have been WA Party Going On.n' There were two groups of teenagers. At one end' was a bunch of rea1'hepacats, at the other end was a group of Hsquaresn who had, WPrdb1ems.U-Thefhepncats were talking up a storm and playing the juke box full blast. There was one Wcool catn stepping it out to a lively tune called, HAt the Hop.U As I gazed around in amazement, they kept on WRee1ing In Rocking.W As I scratched my head in a thoughtful gesture, I thought it was only HMake Be1ieve.W Next as a cute petite girl took the floor, I knew she must be their, UQueen of the Hop.n Meanwhile, another group of 'hep-oats were at the other side of the room carrying on a most interesting conversation. As I got nearer, I could make out what they were saying. Wwhere were you the other night when we had that party?W The reply from one, NSplish-Splashn, I was taking a bath, how was I to know there was a party going on?U Another chimed in with Ulswas real cool Daddy-o.n The records kept playing HOver and Over and Over Again.N As it began to get late, one said, WI think it's about time we are breaking upg all you cats climb into my Wshotn and I'll drop youoff.at your home. On the way home, another souped-up old jalopy pulled up beside the Ushotn and went NBeep-Beepn, and off they went in a merry race. Racing madly down the drag strip, they thought of the UTeen Co mandments.N As they ended their usual but exciting evening, it was concluded that they had sure had Ha hunk of Heavenn but they must get Ndown to earth.U Calista M. Burr '59 WHAT A LIFE! Monday morning, I started for school. It was the same routine. First stop for Mrs. Grant who always says HGood morningn in a friendly way. I turned around and headed for school fdriving in a little more safe mannerl. On the way we picked up Donna and WCalisH who are always ready. Then we usually drop down around town for some little postal affairs and a few groceries. Then we may pick up a couple of schoolmates on the way to the school. I turned in the yard and drove up to the door. I climbed out, pulling the seat ahead. Donna and UCalisH climbed out with a grunt. I then drove to my parking place and turned off the motor. There was nothing on the radio, so I slowly trod into the school for another day. English first thing but I had no assignment. It was after midyear exams. I took my seat. Mrs. Phinney came in with a welcoming smile and blasted us with our dreaded assignment. It was a composition to write. The one thing I have always disliked. Oh well, I suppose it wouldnft bexmuch of a world if Udidn't want to'sU weren't done. The composition was to be different. Well, it did not worry me too much at the start. we had until Friday to do it. Thinking I had plenty of time, the days moved slowly past but they were sneaky, more sneaky than the day of midyear exams. I ' Place, home, time, twenty mdnutes to seven, Thursday night. My paper was to be passed in tomorrow, but I had no ideas what to write about, not any more' than a newsreporter at a women's club. In the other room a Uwesternn was in full swing. Then an idea hit me. It was something different. So I wrote it and you have just read it. Dwight N. Lund '59 '

After what seems a long cold widtef, Spring comes in with e great big boom! Everyone seems so bright and cheeriul, They could go floating off to the moon. The little birds ere chirping, The sun is very warm. It is simply a peach of a day, For a nice long Hike no to Mount Tom. New the gleeiul grove has reached the top, what a hike it had seemed to be! But their effort has not been wasted, For there is still much for them to see. As they gaze, far down below them, There is much for them to see. Then a thought suddcnle'strikes them, How beautiful this evot can really be. So don't take sprinf, just for granted, Ltoo and think what besut it brings. For this would be a dull old world, Ii we never had e snridj. Caliste H. Burr 'S9 ADVICE Question not, but live and labor Till your goal be won, Helping every feeble neighbor, Seeking help from none.

ZWAT CAME? ZWAT WENT? Jake Deeves walked into the kitchen and said to his wife, 0There's something in that confounded gulch just above my well-diggers I am going to hook the winch to it and pull it out of the way of my gearing,H He was trying to attach a line to the huge ball-shaped machine, when a green head appeared at an opening high above. I WJust exactly what do you think youire doing?n it screamed. Jake looked up. UDidnft know there was anybody in there,N he said. Wwill ya get out of my gully?U I UDon't be stupidSLhouted the head. nYou don't think that I could possibly Ieirn like it on this thirdmrate planet, do you?H Wla donlt have to shout,H Jake said. VI? ya donlt move, I gotta move ya. Ya ruined my roadway.n WOh, czat,U the head growled and disappeared inside. Next day Deeves worked doggedly trying to lift with the crane of his well-digger the zeugma-mechanism in order to drop it somewhere out of his wayg he hoped as far as to land of the Zuni, Exactly on the zenith hour, suddenly the head reanpeared and began to climb down the side of the machine. This zoonic-like zoophyte used only two of its upper five tentacles, the other three remaining coiled against its spongy green body. The head was smooth except for two large pink eyes which seemed to flicker and which retracted into their sockets when it blinked, There was a large gash about four inches lower, apparently a mouth. The creature had no neckg its head and body merged. Its torso and legs looked inhumenly human. This zymywzymogen went into town to solicit aid from a Dr. Swishes who was a spacic-specialist. When the creature asked the doctor to help him fix his space ship and the doctor kept on watching the dials, the creature became a dark purple. It ran out the door and around the house to where it could see Dr. SwishesY head, picked up a small boulder, threw if :trough the window, and ran back te his space ship. Dr. Swishes then calgea Inf Atomic Energy Commission By the next morning Washington, D. C,, was buzzing with rumors. The army took over Jakefs gulch, beating the press by seconds. Jake had to be forcibly restrained, when he began waving 9 zatomatic pistol and demanding that everyone get away from his property, It took the army engineers sixteen hours to build bleachers in front of the machine and a speaker's platform beside it. Ambassador Bizen had just begun his speech when the creature bounded from the opening in the ship and onto the platformw UEurekaiU it shrieked happily. 0Now I can go homein Just then the creature noticed the people. WZoulU it said simply.
