24 THE BOOSTER Other Cases. In all the schools of the state, I ' ve seen some pretty faces; But of all those I ' ve seen of late, Our ' s has them beat on cases. Now there ' s Emmet Kelly and Dot Albright, They have a case, you can tell that at sight; And Carl Fechtman and Charlotte Uhl, If another look at Charlotte, then there ' s a dual. There ' s that fickle Russ Kretsch, who hasn ' t one, But takes the other fellows ' girls and thinks it great fun. Then there ' s Ross Mullin, who looks, love-sick swain, At Gladys Benson, his much loved Dame. And there ' s Helen Smith and Taylor so bold, More romantic than tales of lovers of old. There ' s Earl and Sadye, Evelyn and Cy, Sarah and Russel — we ' ll just pass them by. But one of the cases they ' re trying to hush — They say Bob Peacher has a Short- ridge rush. And there ' s young Herman Hedrich and Lois Deck — To think of them all would my poor mind wreck. But don ' t you know there ' s scandal of it all, As they go wandering thro ' the hall? And it sets a bad example for our Freshies, dear — They soon think it is part of Senior year. But if they want to keep out of din, They had better consider the question — then not begin. — Vadis Surface. June ' 17. Blondy ' s Song. Night of our June Class Play, What did ' st thou hide? What did you hear him say, Love, at your side? Hush, cried Miss Perkins ' voice, All we can hear On stage above is noise And low-voiced ' dear. ' Death, what is death? he cried. ' Let them rave on, Dot, I will stay by thy side, Thy Oberon. In the Chemistry Lab. (Any Day.) 1:30 — Experiments Nos. 54, 55, 56 due today. 1:31 — Rustling of aprons and sup- plies. Much ado about nothing. 1:45 — Silence. 1:46 — Staccato cries of Hey, help, neutralize my book, I got acid all over it. After said book is neutralized, silence reigns supreme. 2:15 — Business of dignified Seniors persuading unsuspecting girls and ig- norant Freshies to smell, well — just to smell. (Butyric acid, ask Foley what it s like.) 2:30— Exit Hank, Hall, Bob McMur- ray, and Fuzz by slow degrees to far corner. Naw, don ' t drag her, she dances like a crutch. Aw where do you get that noise, she gets by like a twin six. That, gentle readers, is an excerpt of the great indoor sport, Discussing the Fine Points cf the Sci- entific Art of Fussing. 2:40 — By an ingenious arrangement, Walt Heiser and Cecil Jordan squirt water into the eyes of unsuspecting investigators. 2:46 — Grand rush to complete ex- periments. 2:54 — Experiments complete. 2:55 — Homeward bound (or to the Circle) the embryo chemists cease their labors to return again tomorrow. — Fuzz.

Since the prophet omitted the name of Norman Littell, we will submit this as the genii ' s vision for said person: We came to the 44th floor of a build- ing in which there was a room similar to a doctor ' s office. There we found Dr. McComb with a screw driver, tightening up the screws in Norman Littell ' s head. They had become loose by hard usage during his eight years in Manual Training. — L.
