IT was odd, buT inTo The eTher came a sTrangeness, a someThing ThaT served as a symbol oT ThaT human beehive, The GheTTo. a melodic sTrain, so Toreign To This aTmosphere ThaT I began To ask where had I heard This beTore? Could This slime and TilTh produce someThing so beauTiTul? The air was gone, buT The melody lingered on. I could do no more Than waiT To see The Tace oT The one who had Tingered his violin wiTh such compassion. And Then he came. He was The GheTTo. In his cloThing could be seen The experiences oT a cheap and crowded exisTence. BuT iT was in his eyes ThaT I read my sTory1- wk 'Y wk The quieT room was disTurbed only by The heavy breaThing oT The man who lay on The ugly, broken bed. AT a Table saT a young man, his eyes Tixed upon his violin. Suddenly he leaned Torward and Touched The insTrumenT wiTh reverence. IT wouldn'T always be This way: his TaTher TilThy Trom a day's labor, his moTher slaving To give Them Tood and cloThing. In his imaginaTion an audience appeared beTore him, lisTening To him inTenTly: and Then came a shrill call To supper To break his vivid dream. BUT wiThin a year, wiThin one shorT year- Y if lil ElecTric IighTs now shouTed Saul RayTeld, ConcerT VirTuoso. No longer The broken room: buT now The broken hearT. He sTood beTore his dressing room mirror. a picTure oT perTecTion, sTill Thinking of his moTher slaving in The kiTchen, his shorT shabby TaTher reTurning home each day TilThy and exhausTed. They had reTused To leave The GheTTo even Though Saul had oTTered Them The luxuries oT his wealTh. A door opened and his paTron enTered, requesTing him To include in his reperToire a selecTion well liked by a wealThy Triend. In The mind oT This greaT musician ran The ThoughT ThaT an arTisT should be Tree To play Trom his hearT, noT his pockeT. He sTepped upon The sTage, a puppeT playing beTore a group oT immaTure children. He looked aT his audience. In The balcony were his people, The people he had known, had lived wiTh in The GheTTo. Below were The rich, so calm, so emoTionless. Among Them was his paTron's wealThy Triend, in a drunken sTupor. Again Saul looked Trom The coT'Tons down To The Turs, while The IighTs burned wiTh all Their glory upon him. lk lk lk He ThoughT again oT his parenTs, how They had undersTood his love oT music, how The Tears had Tilled Their eyes when he played. STarvaTion? Perhaps, buT every exTra penny wenT inTo his lessons. Their every prayer was Tor his happiness. Now he knew! He would go back To his people who knew and undersTood him. No longer would These Talse Taces appear beTore him, no longer The scum, who saT asleep in his Tull-dress suiT. His soul was brilIianTly igniTed. IT had Tound iTs way home aT lasT, a home in The GheTTo- Perhaps iT was odd, buT everyone in The audience had TelT The sudden change: had TelT The elecTriciTy in The air. They didn'T know ThaT iT was a soul which had Tound iTs way home! Ik Ik ii Indeed There is a sTory behind every New Yorker. Doris FiTTing IO SENIOR ECHOES TO A FRIEND Can I begin by calling you a friend? Your love and kindness mean much more To me Than iusl' The common Triendship which does end In pain, and sorrow, and humiliTy. For you who share so Treely whaf is yours, And love your Tellow man as God does ask, For you who smile, and Thus make IighT my chores. And make The hardesf work a meager Task, Could I buT Tind The proper words of praise, I-low Then would Shakespeare look in jealousy AT clever eulogy and Turn oT phrase, And lines To live Through all eTerniTy. BuT Io, I'm noT Trom common Tar aparT, And have no more To offer Than a loving hearT. William NesTor As Anne Turned The key and opened The door, The darkness seemed To reach ouT wiTh long grasping arms To enToId and smoTher her. She had a sTrange sensaTion of sTranguIaTion before The click of The IighT swiTch broughT a Tlood of reassurance To The dark corners oT The one-room aparTmenT. Funny, she'd never had any Tear of The dark before. AII ThaT overTime on The nighT shiTT is making me iumpy , she ThoughT. NexT monTh I'II be back on days again, and l'll feel beTTer. She puT her coaT away and sTarTed Toward The kiTcheneTTe To make a cup of coTIee. IT was Then ThaT she remembered The small blue envelope she had Taken Trom her mailbox downsTairs. LiTTing iT from her handbag, she smiled aT The round, childish wriTing ThaT spelled ouT: Miss Anne Rogers, 320 W. l25 ST., New York CiTy, N. Y. IT was a leTTer Trom her room maTe, Alice Ross, who was spending a well-earned vacaTion upsTaTe on her aunT's Tarm. Anne opened iT and read: . Annie Dear, Y lT's so good To be away from crowds and courTrooms. You know, I was beginning To eaT, sleep and drink lawyers, and Thieving murderers. I'm so Thankful ThaT ScoTT Bender goT all ThaT was coming To him. I read anoTher accounT OT The case This morning.

You should see The improvemenT This heavenly place has broughl abouT. Anne Tinished Alice's IeT+er, Tull oT gossip and bubbling over wiTh enioymenT, and TeIT a liITIe beTTer Tor iT. Alice Ross had always been The peppy halT of Their Team. JUNE I945 I I AIThough They looked so much alike people offen misTook Them for sisTers, Alice had always been more popular af school and had more daTes Than her besf friend. Whenever Anne had one of her moods , Alice had been able To snap her ouT of iT. Even by mail, her old friend had been able To bring a spark of cheer To The small aparTmenT. Anne puT The lasT dish on The shelf and puT ouT The lighT in The miniaTure kiTchen. A reflecTion of The sTrange sfifled feeling swepf over her, and she hurriedly closed The door and prepared To go To bed. The room seemed Too silenT, excepT for The slow, sTeady Tick of The alarm clock on The Table. WhaT's wrong wiTh me TonighT? she asked herself, impafienfly Tugging aT The sleeve of her bafhrobe. I'll Take an aspirin and go righT To sleep insTead of reading. Tomorrow I'll be fine, and l won'T jump aT my own shadow. She puT one small whiTe TableT inTo her mouTh, Then reached for a boTTle and Took anofher. .She snuggled down befween The cool sheefs and Turned off The small lamp nexT To The sTudio couch. Immediafely The warm oppressive air swooped down aT her, and around her, leaving her gasping. Don'T be so silly, Annie , she said aloud. You've really goT a bad case of iiTTers. BuT she couldn'T laugh off The sTrangling, TighTening ThaT was gagging her. She lay back and Tried To sleep, Tossing This way and ThaT, vainly Trying To rid herself of her TormenTor. Finally, wifh beads of perspirafion Trickling coldly down The back of her neck, she goT up and snapped on The lighT. She opened The door, and wenT down The hall To The Telephone To call Dr. Bafes. She puT down The receiver wiTh a sigh of relief. l-le would be over in an hour, as soon as he finished his hospifal rounds. When Anne Rogers re-enTered The aparTmenT, she did noT see The man aT firsT- he was sTanding aT The opposiTe side of The room, fingering a small leaTher handbag, examining iT closely. Oh! gasped Anne, as The scarred face looked up. Then, WhaT do you wanT? Gef ouT of here!l as he flung The bag aside, and puT his hand inTo his pockef. He walked across The room and closed The door: Then sTood wiTh his back To iT, facing Anne. So you're The lousy dame who senT Bender up? l-le smoThered her weak proTesT wiTh, You been playin' hard-To-geT, ain'T you? Well, Today I caughf up wiTh you on 43rd STreeT, and Tailed you here. Anne was in a frenzy of fear. BuT, you're misfaken. l'm---. ShuT up. Save your breafh, sis, because in iusT Ten seconds you're goin' To need iT. The noise won'T boTher you neifher. This silencer will TTx ThaT. l-le whipped a revolver ouT of his pockef, and poinTed iT aT Anne. Oh no, no, no, you'rei . Anne felT The sfing of The lead as iT pierced her flesh. Then The hoT blood bubbling up and choking her. She drew a breafh, buf iT was blood, hoT and heavy where iT sTuck in her Throaf. Her hearT gave a final sickening lurch, and The blackness came closer and closer, down and around her, Till finally iT closed in forever. As he Turned ouT The lighT and closed The door, The moon rose high over The ciTy, and in her paTh looked down on 320 W. l25Th ST., ApT. BZ. There on The floor of The large room was a small leafher handbag, and on iT, in shining gold, gliTTered The inifials A. R.

Suddenly fhere was a loud crash of fhunder and a blinding flash of lighf, and when I looked fo see whaf was happening, I found myself in a helicopfer wifh my friend, flying above a sfrange, new world. We were rapidly approaching a huge, glisfening skyscraper. I noficed fhe name Franklin K. Lane High School engraved above ifs fronf enfrance. Lane? I queried in amazemenf. Why, if couIdn'+ be!

We walked To The door To enTer, buf before I could puT ouT my hand To open iT, iT had opened auToma+icaIIy. EIecTric-eye, said The professor, as he noTiced The sTarTIed expression on my face. Every door in Lane operaTes ThaT way. He seemed To have been here before. LeT's go down To The forTieTh floor. I Think you'Il find someThing inTeresTing There, he suggesTecl. We wenT To The forTieTh Tloor via eIevaTor lno pass requiredl and Tound The STudenTs' RecreaTion Lounge. I was asTonished To see hundreds of sTudenTs siTTing comTorTabIy in easy-chairs, smoking. OThers were dancing' To popular music, engaged in billiards or ping-pong, waTching Television-seTs, or iusT napping. This was how They were spending Their sTudy-periods, I learned. In Lane's resTauranT, where we wenT nexT, I was really in for a surprise. Professor Kearns and I saT down aT a cozy Table for Two. and soon a waiTer in Tull dress'suiT came To us, presenTed The menu, poured The waTer in our glasses, and seT The Table. To The Tune oT The sweeT music of The Lane orchesfra, which was siTuaTed aT The cenTer of The enormous dining-room, we enioyed eighT large courses of delicious food. And To Top iT off, The enTire meal was Tree, as I soon discovered. We conTinued our Tour. Up and down The eIevaTor we Traveled, Trom The resTauranT To The huge audiTorium, which could seaT 25.000, To The eIaboraTe labora- Tories equipped wiTh The finesT apparaTus I had ever seen: up To The Tower, which was II5 sTories above sTreeT level, and where I examined a giganTic Telescope used by sTudenTs of asTronomy. The descripTions of The many oTher deparTmenTs and Technical TeaTures oT Lane would Till volumes.- Three-dimensional, Technicolor, sound, moTion-picTure machines had replaced human Teachers in mosT oT The classrooms. My marvelous journey To ThaT wonderland oT The TuTure came To an end quiTe abrupTly, for righT in The midsT of iT, while There s+iII remained so much To be seen, I heard a sTrange voice pronounce my name.

FRESI-IMAN DAZE 9 ,O Q JLM 1 Looking back Through The years, Tour long years, I can recall Those firsT few days in Lane as if They were buT yesferday. I was fair meaT for any fanciful Tale. I was so sweeT and TrusTing. I believed everyThing They ever Told me. A lie? Innocenf IiTTIe Freshman ThaT I was! I chose Lane To be honored wiTh my presence for The simple facT ThaT iT was The newesT of all The schools. Ah yes! Lane was new, srill may be considered new, and ignorance was bliss. I suspecfeol somefhing fishy in The air when I asked for direcfions To my hearT's choice. WhaT were They? Well-To quofe my guide, Walk To The nearesT cemefery, knock aT The fifTh TombsTone Three Times, and walk down . OT course, I ThoughT he was crazy buT wiTh The passage of Time, a wee biT of wisdom managed To sink in. I found ouT all Too soon. How many cemeferies did I pass when walking up from The Crescenf STreeT bus? Was iT Two or Three? Now as a child, I had always had a morTaI fear of These lovely, peaceful places. I used To have The bad habiT of bursTing ouT crying. I guess all children pass Through ThaT sTage, and alfhough I had advanced beyond iT, fond remembrances came fIiTTing back To me, and The mosT awful sensaTion hiT me in The sTomach, ThaT was how I was feeling when my eyes firsT beheld Franklin K. Lane I-Iigh School. Yes, I grar1T you ThaT our building is impressive looking, buT why did They surround iT wiTh cemeTeries? Weren'T archiTecTs or civic planners ever young? I overcame my awe and my various feelings and proceeded To walk ThaT exfremely shorT paTh leading up To The main enTrance. l'Iow did I ever manage To survive? The resT of The day was rouTine sfuff, excepT ThaT iT Took me nearly an hour To find my way ouT of The building, buT I'm Told ThaT I didn'T do Too badly for a beginner. ThrusTing TempTaTion aside, I force myself To skip over The many Tricks played on Freshies . I Try To forgeT The maze which faced me, buT I musT reciTe some of Those fanciful Tales. Would you believe ThaT I fell for This one? Lane is such a very new building ThaT They've puT all kinds of new devices and gadgefs inTo iT. They even have secreT panels in The walls. When The fire drill signal sounds, all These panels slide open and The pupils line up before Them. Then, one by one, each sTudenT siTs down on The edge of The opening and finds himself sliding down a long chuTe which deposifs him ouTside, in fronf of The school building. I-low could anyone be so gullible? Now all elemenfary school graduaTes have heard of Regenfs. Is There anyone in The STaTe of New York who hasn'T? Regenfs are spoken of only in The mosT hushed voices and wiTh The uTmosT secrecry around Them. You know The Tower on The Top of Lane, don'T you? Well, They Told me ThaT everyone who Takes RegenTs is led up To ThaT IiTTIe room and for Three whole hours, sweaTs iT ouT There, alone. IT he finds The Regenfs a biT Too hard, a window is always handy, and The school always wishes To do whaTever iT can for iTs sTudenTs: so They Take charge of The burials. The school boughf a special ploT of ground from ThaT nearby cemefery, and you should see all The former LaneiTes ThaT are buried There. Could I ever have been ThaT young? I'm a SENICR now: buT even Though I haTe To admiT iT, I musT concede ThaT I was once a Freshman, Tool Frances I-Iorowifz I 6 SENIOR ECHOES MORNING NOCTURNE Five days a week, I rise af seven- Geffing up is like leaving Heaven: Yef every morn, I vow again To go fo bed fonighf by fen. To fhe breakfasf fable wifh sleepy eyes, I drag myself wifh weary sighs: I gulp my milk, grab a bun from fhe plafe. I look af fhe clock-I'm nearly Iafe.

I finally gef change and furn abouf, When suddenly I am pushed furfher ouf: Af lasf, my nickel rings ouf Ioud, And I force myself info fhe crowd. I muse fo myself, lf's all a joke, When suddenly somebody gives me a poke. Gosh. buf if's awful fhis fraveling around! The frolley gives a Iurch, passengers're down.

I was al liberly lo lake lhe round shining wheel inlo my hands and prelend I was driving 'lil my hearl was lull and I was lired. The aulomobile look us far and wide, and I loved il very dearly, nol only for ils beauly, bul for lhe parl il had in making me happy. Il look us lo magnificenl beaches where lhe waler was bolh calm and rough as you liked il. The beach mosl vivid in my memory is Jones Beach, lhal beauliful example'of man's accomplishmenls broughl logelher wilh Nalure's beaulies. ll was lhere lhal I learned lo swim and lo love lhe ocean. I remember begging my falher lo slay lale unlil all lhe people had gone and lhen lo walk along lhe quiel beach Iislening lo lhe incessanl splash of lhe waves, looking oul lo sea, lhe unending sea. How many limes we wenl lhere I could nol even underlake lo slale, bul each lime was an advenlure in ilself, a period in which I Iislened lo and saw beauly as il was, unchanged, pure, and wholesome, lo my lhirsling young spiril. There was a golf course lo play in and all sorls of olher sporls lo engage a young boy's inleresl. Tennis, shuffle board, and even archery were some of lhe many paslimes in lhis heaven.

These are some oT my mosT vivid memories. FIRST TERM lmmediaTely upon enTering Lane, mysTerious whiTe cards were shoved inTo our hands. We soon discovered ThaT They were S. S. cards, and were prompTly insTrucTed in The besT manner on how To decode Them. This was The Term we Took Civics and were TorTunaTe enough To geT Mr. Rubinow as our Teacher. We accompanied him on his TrequenT iaunTs abouT The ciTy beTore These were disconTinued because oT The danger oT air-raids. On Columbus Day, he Took us To WesT PoinT where we viewed a TooTball game, and goT a chance To see The CadeTs up close! SECOND TERM We were now civilized, and could look down wiTh a superior air aT Those awkward Freshies. ThaT was The Term we were TirsT inTroduced To MaTh., and awards in The aToremenTioned subiecT iusT Tlowed like wine. We, also, goT our TirsT TasTe oT Physics in General Science Il, which, we musT admiT, was noT alTogeTher unpleasanT. THIRD TERM We had To geT acquainTed all over again, Tor The Junior-highers were now in our midsT. We had Two new subiecTs added To our programs This Term: General Biology and Spanish. We Took Spanish, because we had been Told in our earlier lives ThaT iT was very easy. All ThaT you have To do, we had been Told, is To puT an o on To The ends of all English words, and The resulT will be Spanish. lEx.: English-ship: Spanish-shipo.l we were quickly disillusioned, however. We also soon learned To be cold-blooded, cuTTing up Trogs as we did in Biology. Mr. Nagler allowed some oT his more ambiTious sTudenTs To progress To The poinT where They were permiTTed To dissecT whiTe mice. FOURTH TERM This was The Term aT The end of which we received our TirsT TasTe of The aTrociTies of a RegenTs Exam. BuT, beTore This, however, we were To have our picTures Taken Tor The ReporTer because we were able vicTory gardeners, well vicTory gardeners anyway. Mr. Nager remarked in This issue of ThaT illusTrious newspaper ThaT The Garden Club had pulchriTude, buT no muscles. We ThoughT ThaT unfair, because we considered ourselves The aThleTic Types. FIFTH TERM We were glad To reach This grade, because, Thank goodness, Tor The TirsT Time in our long careers aT Lane we no longer had To Take ArT. When we elecTed Chem- isTry, we ThoughT ThaT iT probably would be easy, because we Tound Biology so simple, buT how wrong we were. SIXTH TERM By now we were already immune To The suffering caused by mediTaTing abouT The RegenTs. BuT, we ThoughT discreTion was The beTTer parT of valor, and decided againsT Taking The ChemisTry RegenTs. We also sTarTed To go To The G. O. meeTings during This semesTer. SEVENTH TERM Our English Teachers inTroduced us To Shakespeare, and we goT a considerable dose of iT, buT, in The end, we enjoyed iT-well mosT of us did anyway. We came x JUNE 1945 27 v 9 ,J ouT of our FirsT-Aid Classes wiTh STandard CerTificaTes. We cerTainIy wenT Through considerable Trouble To geT Them. We deparTecl, Too, from our General Biology IV class wiTh considerably enlarged vocabularies. We also wenT To numerous G. O. conferences aT various high schools Iincluding Brooklyn Techl. EIGHTH TERM We could find no way To suppress our new found glory: Senior buTTons, Senior Day, Class NighT, Prom, and all The oTher Things ThaT go Towards making a Senior's life a happy one. This Term There was a special added aTTracTion To make our Senior Term complefe-our baskefball Team played aT Madison Square Garden. WiTh These and many oTher precious memories, plus all The knowledge ThaT we have gained Through hard work, we pass Through The PorTals of Lane inTo The world To be dashed abouT by FaTe like a feaTher in The wind, and finally seTTle somewhere, h . . . . some OW Virginia Rowley TI-IE ADULT WE WanT To know someThing'?

Why, only yesferday we were skinny IiTTle kids playing poTsi in The sTreeTs, skaTing in The schoolyards, pushing doll carriages in ForesT Park, sTudying Abe Lincoln in 3B. Doesn'T iT make you feel a li++ie squeamish inside To Think ThaT in a few shorT years we'll be The capTains of indusTry, The leaders in poliTics, The scienTisTs, The playwriTes, The housewives? BuT The world won'T seem quiTe as sTrange To us as we Think. Unknowingly we have been prepared To assume The responsibiIiTies of ciTizenship, business and parenT- hood. We were given an allowance To budgeT, ourselves. We began buying our own clorhes. We Took iobs afTer school and during The summer. We've done everyThing from minding babies To aTTending Iecfures. Then, of course, during our four years in Lane we have been TaughT abouT The world around us. NineTy-eighT percenf of The facTs we've learned will be forgoTTen soon afTer graduafion. IT seems a IiTTle sTrange To sTudy for four long years and soon TorgeT whaT has been sTudied. BuT our educaTion's real purpose was noT To make us walking encyclopedias . RaTher we have learned To Think and acT for ourselves. Lane being an American high school conTains sTudenTs represenTing every race, creed, and color. As sTudenTs in Lane we have learned To work and play TogeTher and To Think in Terms of our similariTies raTher Than our differences. The firsT baTTle againsT inTolerance has been foughT and won. Some of you who read This may laugh aT our hopes, remembering The promises made by pasT generafions of youThs who promised To build a beTTer world. You forgeT one Thing. We've goT The memory oT a Terrible war, The worsT one ever ToughT, fresh in our minds We're going To prevenT anoTher. We're going To read befween The lines of The promises ThaT leaders will make. We won'T go dashing off To war when naTions begin To disagree. We'Il keep our fingers on The pulse of Things and be on guard for rumblings beneaTh The surface.

Norma sighed soffly and sfarfed fo shine her beaufiful blue and gray buffon fhaf she so proudly wore on her pink swealer. As Norma looked af her Senior pin, she began fo daydream of fhe many wonderful fhings ahead. Classnighf had finally rolled around, and Bill was in on furlough dressed in his Air Corps uniform. Norma was dressed in a blue, low neck dress and looked sfunning as she walked down 'rhe aisle in fhe audiforium clinging fo Bill's arm. The plays were puf on, and fhey were all very good, as a maffer of facf, swell. Now The Senior Celebrifies were being called, and suddenly her name was called ouf for Mos+ Popular Girl. Slowly and gracefully wifh a smile on her face she walked up 'rhe sfairs 'ro receive her prize. Norma, would you sfop daydreaming and 'fell fhe class whaf fhe definifion of imperialism is, her feacher asked. The smile disappeared from her face as she sfammered ouf fhe answer. Affer her halfing and incomplefe recifafion she resumed her seaf. lf was wonderful being popular for a few momenfs if only by dreaming, Norma fhoughfg buf once again she was a member of The Senior class, whom nobody knew or had heard of. Her spirifs fell swiffly unfil her eye caughf her Senior buffon once more. Well, gee, l'm sfill a Senior.

The class feachers wouldn r have anyfhing fo do eifher because fheir sfudenfs would fake furns in reviewing fhe lessons, giving fesfs, and marking fhe papers. Yes, I guess we're glad we're nof perfecf. No, we don'f encourage bad habifs, buf we realize fhaf wifhouf fhem life would be preffy dull. Edifh Wendling 64 SENIOR ECHOES MEMORY Think back: you'll remember! Sure you do!

Aller lhree o'clock, we would be lree from worry lor lwo delighllul days. There was lhe day belore a holiday when we were dismissed a lillle earlier. Sure we remember, and lhe memories are filled wilh pleasure. Did you ever walch our leams: baseball, baskelball, and swimming? Remember lhe Easlern-Lane game? We played in lhe Garden lhal day. We losl 32-3l, bul we know lhe leam gave lheir all. We lroze in anlicipalion ol whal would happen every lime lhe ball came near our baskel and yelled ourselves hoarse.

Remember how we slrulled' around lhe halls ol Lane wi+h our Senior pins displayed so lhal no one could possibly help seeing lhem? We believed and knew lhal il was lrue leven if no one else didl lhal a Senior is an incredibly wonderlul person. Coming lo school by lrain, we were almosl always lempled lo ride down lo lhe Valencia. Somelimes we did, and enjoyed ourselves immensely knowing lhal we were doing somelhing wrong. Devils, weren'l we? There were lhose dear old language classes.

We sure had lrouble linding lhe place lhe nighl dance was held in, bul we dood il! Celebrilies, class nighl, prom, yes we remember. We also remember lhe lhings JUNE I945 65 ThaT happened in The lower Terms. We remember The boys who were supposed To graduaTe wiTh us, buT who wenT oTT To war To TighT Tor us. These Things are gone- buT noT TorgoTTen. They will remain in a Treasured place in our hearTs Torever. They were Ii+TIe. isolaTed, perhaps aT The Time, insigniTicanT Things, buT They make us recall ThaT we wenT To The besT school, had The besT Teachers, came in conTacT wiTh The besT boys and girls in The world. Myra Fauer YOUTH'S PROBLEM I XX Nl Raymond B. Simmons Jr., beTTer known To his chums as Ray, was a Typical boy in The TourTh Term oT his neighborhood high school. Ray wasn'T a bad boy, he was always a righT guy, and always Tried To do righT. BuT here he was walking and walking, wiTh ThaT hopeless look on his Tace. You know ThaT look ThaT I mean-iT's ThaT maTchless expression oT uTTer bewildermenT mixed wiTh a liTTle, Why did This have To happen To me? Boys are The only people who can express The look, and They do iT unconsciously, when Things are really going bad. Ray sTopped and looked inTo a barber shop window. The clock on The wall Told him iT was eighT o'clock. IT had been Tive hours since he had learned ThaT- well, since he had goTTen The Tragic news. How was he going To live on? No one would undersTand, he was sure of ThaT. Oh hang iT all, he couldn'T sTay away Torever. His sTomach was Telling him he was hungry. He looked up: The barber was sTar.ing aT him. He Took anoTher good and obvious look aT The clock, and walked on. As he walked, his Tacial expressions changed, TwisTing wiTh True agony as he Turned his ThoughTs over in his mind. K How did I ever geT inTo This mess? WhaT am I going To do now? IT someone only undersTood me: buT no one does-I'm hungry-I guess I can'T avoid The ineviTable Torever. I musT go and Tace The music! I will admiT my life is ruined .... Oh! How did I ever geT inTo This mess? I guess iT was my TaulT, buT iT was also circumsTances. If only I had had someone else. She was young, and had ThaT characTerisTic way of expressing herself ThaT iusT overwhelmed me. I was capTivaTed Trom The beginning. Every Time she said someThing To me I could do noThing buT siT There and spuTTer, as my hearT did a iig .... She was Terrific! She was The Type oT woman you read abouT in sTories .... I laughed when I read abouT oTher Tellows who had had The same Thing happen To Them-I won'T laugh any more. There is noThing you can do when iT happens To you. You can'T concenTraTe, you can'T pay aTTenTion-whaT else could be The ouTcome? Gee, here I am in TronT oT my house. I didn'T realize I had come so Tar. . I will never Tell Them. No, They musT never know The real reason why iT happened. I will guard ThaT secreT wiTh my liTe. I may as well go in and geT iT over wiTh. . . I will Take The Tull blame, and say noThing .... Ahhhh! The door is open. Well here goes noThing. Junior! ls ThaT you? Where have you been all day? lvIoTher called as she came Trom The kiTchen To The hall. She looked aT him, he didn'T have To say a word: iT was wriTTen all over his Tace. Juniorl You didn'T? Yes I did, Mom: I-I Tailed English. Al Carlson 66 SENIOR ECHOES James Drake was worried. Even as he sTomped his way Through The ever- deepening snow drifTs The reaIizaTion ThaT he mighTn'T arrive in Time caused him anxieTy. Boy , he mused, iT's cold! He had been Tending his Trap lines all day and he was Tired, buT he managed To keep up a sTeady pace. The snow had been Telling sTeadiIy all day and by Then, The Trail leading To his cabin was enTirely covered: iT was difficuIT To follow The Trail. He glanced nervously down aT his waTch. Wow , he said, half aloud, The Time's running ouTl ImmediaTeIy he quickened his already-fasT sTeps. Rounding a bend in The Trail, IN TIME! he recognized a small birch which meanT abouT five minuTes more Travel before hiss cabin was reached. Can make iT in four, iT I hurry , he Thoughf. Again he speeded up his gaiT. Suddenly his cabin appeared, surrounded by a few sTunTed pines. The remaining few yards To The door were covered in a sprinT. Throwing open The door hurriedly, he slipped off his heavy knapsack and raced To The small radio seT in The corner. Clamping on The earphones, he adiusTed The dial wiTh a frenzied Twisf. He IisTened inTenTIyI Was he Too IaTe? Suddenly, a smile played on his lips, and his drawn face relaxed. ' Dick Tracy was safe! STewarT Ross TELEGRAMS Telegrams are Those small pieces of paper which usually conTain no more Than Ten words. They could be described as urgenT IeTTei's or raTher noTes. There are Two Types of Telegrams-The good and The bad. The good ones usually supply AunT Minnie, who has been visiTing you for six monThs, wiTh a reason Tor reTurning home immediaTeIy, or They call ThaT pesTy uncle of yours away on business. Some Telegrams announce The arrival of ThaT long IosT sailor, soldier, or marine who has promised you a daTe for The IasT Ten monThs, while oThers Tell of a favorable business TransacTion. Of course, The above are only a few of The many kinds of good Telegrams one may receive, buT, I'm sorry To say, Telegrams also have Their bad news. They've been used more Than once To Tell of The sudden arrival of some boThersome old reIaTive who sTicks her nose inTo everybody's business. Some inform The receivers ThaT They have iusT missed winning a SIOOO mink coaT because They forgoT To doT Their i's in ThaT IasT sTanza of poeTry. The saddesT Telegram of all, and The one people fear mosT, is The one ThaT carries The message of deaTh. Telegrams are sTrange Things. When a person receives one, he is immediaTeIy filled wiTh hope, fear, and exciTemenT. He hopes iT will convey good news, buT he fears iT won'T. He becomes excifed because he doesn'T know whaT To expecT. Those who have men in The Service realize The imporTance of Telegrams: They may conTain anyThing from a congraTulaTory IeTTer from The general To a deaTh noTice from The War DeparTmenT. LeT's hope, in days To come, ThaT There will conTinue To be more of The former and fewer of The IaTTer unTiI VicTory is won. EdiTh Wendling JUNE I945 67 -we THREE FRESI-IMEN-Tl-TREE SENIORS The crowd oT sTudenTs moved Torward down The long walk, up The wide sTaircase. inTo The school. They pushed and shoved, quiTe unconsciously as They greeTed each oTher. Hi, Joe, did you have a nice vacaTion? V Hey, Jean, where were you all summer? Gee whiz, Marge, l never win. JusT when I sTarT To geT To know The liTeguard, zip, The summer's over, and here we are again! The sound became increasingly louder as more and more oT The sTudenTs Tound old Triends near Them, or even Tar away. No one noTiced The small girl wiTh The halT worried, half dazed look. ' Oh, pardon me, could you Tell me where Room 460 is? BuT no one heard. They were all Too busy wiTh Their own aTTairs. The girl moved Torward wiTh The crowd. This was iT: This was whaT she had looked Torward To all summer, longed Tor since she could remember-High School, Suddenly :she haTed iT. She wanTed To cry: a big Tear Tormed and hovered on The brink oT her lower lid. She brushed iT away Tiercely, deTianTly. AbouT TwenTy TeeT behind her Two boys, who looked as iT They were wearing Their very TirsT pairs oT long panTs, moved wiTh The crowd inTo The big emTrance hall oT The school. Their voices were a biT Too sTrained, a biT Too hurried. All you need is a sysTem. !'ve goT iT all Tigured ouT. We'll be able To kid around down in The caTeTeria insTead oT going To any smelly classes. Oh, yeh, The oTher counTered, his voice breaking, how do you know? You haven'T even sTarTed here yeT. The crowd moved on. The hall was empTy. ThaT Term passed, The Term aTTer, and summer came again. The girl enTered The school wiTh The oThers, buT This Time The dazed look was gone. She had her Triends around her. The Two boys were There Too, one who knew beTTer, and The oTher who sTilI had The crack in his voice. Time passed sTill TasTer, and now The hall was Tilled wiTh The graduaTes and Their Tamilies. The graduaTion ceremonies were over. The girl said good-bye To The girls and boys she had meT in school, buT while she did, she had a Tar away look. She was Thinking oT ThaT girl who had iusT managed To keep Trom crying so many years ago. She smiled. She was going on To college, buT now she was conTidenT. TelT secure. One oT The boys was There Too: his voice was deep and sTrong. His mind was Tar removed Trom his presenT graduaTe sTaTus. He was reliving a momenT Tour years previous. He remembered how SmiTTy had sounded ThaT TirsT day, and how he had sounded iusT Three weeks beTore This when he had ioined The Army. All you need is a sysTem. I've goT iT all Tigured ouT.

AT some Time or oTher, we have all pressed our noses, as eager, wisTTul IiTTle children, againsT some enchanTing sTore window and gazed rapTly aT The dolls, candy, or elecTric Trains wiThin. IT is hard Tor grownups To resisT The TempTaTion To sTop and appraise a sTunning gown, sparkling diamond ring, or eye-caTching display. Who hasn'T run To a TrosTed bedroom window on a cold winTer morning To see The TirsT snowTall oT The season or To Tind ouT wheTher rubbers and umbrella were needed ThaT morning? One oT The saddesT and loneliesT sighTs I know is ThaT oT shaTTered and blackened windows sTaring Trom a silenT, deserTed house. One oT The gladdesT, mosT hearT- warming sighTs is ThaT of windows beaming a welcome and sending ouT cheerTul IighT inTo a dark nighT. Ivlany's The Time a bored LaneiTe has gazed lisTIessly ouT oT a hisTory room window aT The claTTering Jamaica El or The sTraighT whiTe TombsTones below. Who can TorgeT The Freshies' wonder aT The sTrange, new windows in Lane? Windows can be perverse and provoking. When They should open easily, They reTuse To budge, buT when you're leaning ouT, down They slam. Iv1osT oT us have had The experience oT coming home during a sudden downpour, dripping weT, only To Tind ThaT The rooms are Tlooded. As we dodge The soTa, which has iusT TIoaTed by, we noTice ThaT The windows are sTanding wide open, bliThely IeTTing The rain in. Windows are indicaTions oT Spring. When The weaTher begins To geT warmer, The windows begin To blossom wiTh planTs, bedding, and women leaning ouT To caTch a breaTh oT air, calling Wilbur and Johnny Tor supper, and Tinding ouT who's doing whaT in The sTreeT below. I Windows are commonplace, buT like so many oTher Things which we always see around us, Take Tor granTed, and pass over, They do have an inTeresT, a cerTain beauTy, and a meaning, which we may Tind iT we only Take The Trouble To look.

On EasTer Day we say, LeT's hope iT doesn'T rain because I'm wearing a new haT, or, LeT's hope The weaTher conTinues To be Tair during our whole EasTer vacaTion.

However, The mosT repeaTed senTence This year has been, LeT's hope we win This war soon so ThaT our boys may come home again. I guess we've all used The words LeT's hope aT one Time or anoTher To express a desire Tor a cerTain Thing. AIThough iT acTuaIly does us no good To iusT sTand around and Talk abouT Things, we really consider The Talking as imporTanT as The doing. We're Tunny ThaT wayl EdiTh Wendling LIVE AND LEARN The Term I enTered Lane I held my head very high: you see I was no ordinary Freshie, buT a Tull-Tledged Third Termer. I had eliminaTed The painful process oT iniTiaTion inTo High School by going To Junior High, or so I ThoughT. Very shorTIy I was To learn ThaT, alThough a Third Termer, I was iusT as naive as The Freshmen. I asked The same silly quesTions, made The same silly misTakes as Those silly IiTTle Freshmen wiTh whom I would have no parT. My TirsT Toolish misTake was in asking a Senior where The Girls' Gymnasium was. ll didn'T call iT Gym since I ThoughT Gymnasium sounded more impressive.l She direcTed me To The Gymnasium las I called ITI: only iT happened To be The Boys' Gymnasium. AIThough Terribly embarrassed, I was noT aT all angry aT my inTormer, since I ThoughT she had made a misTake. I didn'T realize Then ThaT one oT Those superior beings la Seniorl would wanT To Tool me. My second blunder, which also Tagged me as a newcomer, was made in The CaTeTeria. IT was Wednesday, my TirsT Wednesday in Lane, and I was sTanding on The lunch line. ImmediaTely I began To Talk To The girl sTanding in TronT oT me. Aren'T we lucky noT To have an eighTh period on Wednesdays , I said. She looked aT me in The queeresT manner and said, WhaT do you mean no eighTh period? I In a manner which I ThoughT was mosT grown up, I explained To This uninTelIigenT individual ThaT we had had an assembly period, and The-reTore There was noT room Tor eighT periods. She bursT inTo a TiT oT laughing, and iT was now my Turn To be bewildered. Finally aTTer a Tull recovery, she unveiled To me The deep mysTery oT The Wednesday bell schedule. I was again embarrassed, buT This Time The embarrassmenT hurT. For, you see, my inTormer was anoTher Third Termer. I made many blunders in ThaT, my TirsT Term in Lane, buT I learned The hard way. Today as a Senior, I should know beTTer. However, iusT The oTher day someThing happened which caused me a TiTTle embarrassmenT. I asked a girl on The lunch line whaT Time The bell rang. Eying my Senior buTTon she Turned quickly To her Triend and in an audible sarcasTic whisper said, She's a Senior and she doesn'T even know when The bell rings! I know now ThaT There is no age limiT on Those who make misTakes. They all make Them and usually proTiT by Them.
