4 THE CHRONIC ILL EDITORIALS I Thirty Seconds Exposure A personal expose of what it means to be Editor of Whispers If you were to have passed through the soot-grimed columns of Stewart Gymnasium on the damp night of Sat., May 2. executed a right and then a left face in quick succession, breathed deep- ly, proceeded cautiously down the pre- cipitous stairs confronting you. turned right. turned right again, knocked po- litely, knocked more firmly. pummeled the door until your knuckles were splinter-ridden, and listened carefully, you would have detected, issuing forth in tones of unmistakable gentle- ncss from that mysterious chamber be- yond, the soothing words, lust a see- ond, damnit. I've got a picture in the developer. .Xfter a seemingly inter- minable pause, an irritated and dis- heveled visage, accompanied hy the mingled aromas of hypo, acetic acid, and Ii. O., would have confronted yours and uttered a weary and im- patient, YeahF-NUI NUI come backl You have no cause for alarm: it's only me. .-Xlthough I must admit, it was surely a rather frightening version of same. VVhat was I doing down in that Sunday School adaptation of the black Hole? That would be a rather delicate question, better proposed from a crouched position. Practice in as- suming and handling responsibility? you suggest. i-Xh, but donlt let those college recommendation question blanks beguile you! Responsibility when referred to XfViiisvEas is a four-letter word spelled XVURK. fThis. however. is not the only accepted spelling- there are several other acceptable. ap- propriate, and demeritable variations.J To get to know people by working together in a cooperative venture to- ward a common goal -yeah. that's what the catalogue says. However. when I surveyed the proximity of our final deadline. and tallied the corre- sponding scarcity of completed, proof- read copy ready for Xfr. Newell, our equally exasperated printer, I honestly and accurately concluded that people in general, and editors in particular. are no damn good-a realistic. but not especially helpful summation. To learn how to handle people? Possibly, but when I consider how many afore- mentioned editors took infinite pains to cross over to the opposite side of the walk when I passed, one might easly add the preface man- to the verb in question: or even better. merely substitute brow-beat. liut you say: VVhat about the more positive side of the picture-what bene- ficial compensations have you derived from your tenure at the weather-worn, blood-stained helm of XVI-iisPEitsF The acquisition of patience?-now you're on the right track. However opposed in theory I am to self-inflicted discipline. I have nevertheless managed to acquire suliicient practice in sclf-re- straint to carry me through Princeton nicely. Powers of concentration?- phenomenal. Have you ever tried to compute proportions on a slide rule with the strains of That Lil' ol' Kiss o' Fire assaulting one ear and VV. C. Cookls presistent queries and comments drumming with gatling-gun rapidity on the other? .-X vital sense of per- spective fslightly reorderedj?-yes: I have learned that XfVHlsPEltS must take precedence over such trivialities as studies, friends, sleep. and letter-writ- ing. And finally to my work with XViiisPeits I can attribute a remarkably increased strength of character. XVhat else could possibly account for the fact that I have yet to strangle Iimmy Simmonds, who turned in the last foot- ball write-ups on May 1? Ilut all this does not satisfactorily answcr the question. why did I ever get myself involved in all this? Wt-ll. I look at it this way: XVho else would have done it if I didn'tF ttlbviously somebody would have been editor. but it's so reassuring to feel that one is indispensable.J .Xnd finally, what elsc would I have done with my evenings? -the standard nocturnal pursuits of wining and wenching, at Ii. H. S. are. in the case of the first. prohibited. and of the second. chaperoned. -Speed liill BREW BEERSON PREDICTS In view of the recent events and trends at IQHS. I have a few prc- dictions to Holy Hill I predict make about life on the in the future. that: of W5-I will be the best IJ Ifinals yell Instead of having only one name band at Pinals. as has been past practice. in P75-I IQIIS will have many. Yes. as long as the record players hold out, lfinals '54 will be tops. lj The lil'IS-XX oodberry athletic rivalry may soon end. :Xs more and Continued from Paiie 1 Roddy was solemn. 'If the prole- tariat would only recognize its true position of servitude, there would be no communist problemf Then complications began for the committee. Before XVilly Ravenel could be summoned, a seemingly endless picket line. with posters boasting: 'Clemency for XVilly.' had to be dis- pcrsed. Concern over this incident was lessened when it turned out that the line was composed of the Rayenel sisters. 'XIaster Ravenel. you are charged with attempting a coup d't'c'01c'. Is it true that you have attempted an in- tensive sabotage campaign to depose Xlr. Thomsen? Young XX'illy was more suave than his predecessors. He calmly looked ahead with that kind gleam so familiar in his fathers eve. '.-Xttempted ainlt the woid.' XVith this the committee closed its investigation. Xlrs. liefauver recom- mended that the schools administration be returned to Iigyptf' more people at EHS turn to Iiloh- ball. half-rubber . fencing. and Spud. the chances for the termination of the rivalry improve. The drain these newer sports place on the personnel of less organized sports like football, basketball. and track may cause the demise of the latter sports. Since the boys at XX'ootlbcrry still seem to be old-fashioned enough to play football and other old sports. the present trend may leave the two schools field- ing entirely dillierent athletic teams. SX The IQHS rat system may also be c to b .Xs the rats sc'm getting smaller each year. soon nont may be seen around. tNot meinmg that they won't be herej. -IJ I predict-but even I can't i dict the next new school policy.
