OUR SQUIRRELS, CHI-ITTER AND PATTER, VISIT THE TEACHERS Chater, the fat bushy-tailed squirrel so often seen racing to the maples on Sixth Street near Tech, says to his sister Patter, You know, we never see much of the teachers. Let's go in- side the buildings and hunt 'em up-the ones we can't seem to see from favorite window sills. What say, Patter? O. K. with me, replies Patter. There goes a blonde student to the front door of Tech. Let's follow her! Oh look, what is that boy doing on the stage with a golf club in his hand? asks Patter. I never knew Miss Baker gave golf lessons. That is a speech student, replies Chatter, and everyone has to give one demonstration speech in the course. Miss Baker is also very much interested in plays and stage productions. She certainly does know what adult and school age audiences like. You know if you don't get the leading role, there is always crew work which is neces- sary ot make a play a success, Miss Baker tells us' Q Q C D Do I hear a stampede of elephants? What would they be doing in high school? asks Patter. lt does sound like a stampede, but it is only Mr. Bauer's gym class running around the gym. I hear Mr. Bauer's classes have good basket- ball games. That must be because he is head basketball cogchf' i i i Washington was president during the Civil war and Lincoln during the Revolutionary, re- cites happy Chatter. No, No, you have them twisted, Chatter. My! Mr. Baxter would never give you an A for that recitation, scolds Patter. Does he teach American History and Gov- ernment? asks Chatter ignoring the reproof. Yes, and his students know much more than you, chimed Patter as she ran. I I l i' While hopping merrily along deserted halls, Patter suddenly hears a musical voice. I know who that is, says Chatter. That's Mr. I. Martin Beck, the great music teacher. You've heard of him. He's the one that swings his arms in front of the A Cappella Choir. Oh, yes, I know him. He's the one in room 130 that has the kids make all the pretty noise. Q i l i Hearing no music they decide to go on. Take a look at all the lines Mr. Benedict is putting on the blackboard, gasps Chatter. That sure looks like a Chinese puzz1e, laughs Patter. I-Ie's the teacher that coached Freshman football and basketball. Guard that guy! Don't let him shoot! lump! those are the words heard by Chatter and Pat- ter as they near the gym. Upon entering they find the explanation for all the noise ,for it is Mr. Block trying his best to keep his basketball team in training. Boy! look at those boys go, and all the bas- kets they make, exclaims Chatter, that goes to show what training does. If they keep up the good work, we should have a winning team next season, says Patter. Yeh! , answers Chatter, and Mr. Block teaches Commercial Science too. ' l' I True, True. Somebody must have answered a question correctly, says Chatter. Isn't that Miss Brown's English Class? I understand those are her favorite words, he adds. Q i i Q Patter, those sophomores act as though they were walking the last mile, says Chatter. You would too, Chatter, if you had received the terrible shock they just got. Mr. Burton is requiring an essay on the French Revolution from all his.history students, replies Patter. R R Q t Suddenly becoming hungry after looking in classrooms, they decide to eat lunch and exit when Lincoln south door opens between classes. Finding no nuts on the squirrel feeder, Patter says, I know where there is really some good food. Where? asks Chatter. Why in Miss Coffland's cooking class. She is really a good cook. All the girls learn to make good things to eat there. Once in a while there is an accident as someone burns some- thing or a cake falls, but as a rule things are pretty good. Do they have any nuts to eat? Chatter questions. I don't know. It all depends on what period it is. Let's look in here and see what the clock says. 1' Q i l Oh! Chatter, let's look in room 318 where Mr. Diller is teaching mathematics, chatters Pater. That boy in the red shirt doesn't know how to multiply, exclaims Chatter. That's nothing, laughs Patter, I only got to addition. l 1 l 'I That well-built man on the stairs, Patter, ls Mr. Eaton. He has charge of work permits. He teaches history too. Patter, what do you suppose that noise is? asks Chatter. I don't know, Chatter, but it sounds like a buzz saw I once got my tail caught in. Maybe we shouldn't look in this room. Of course we'll look. Say, this doesn't look like a classroom. See those funny machines, they are sewing machines, they sound like a buzz saw. Oh! Then this is Miss Eubank's sewing class, where the girls learn to make pretty dresses, exclaims Patter.
