WHEN TO BE NCNCHALANT In the contest sponsored by Quill and Scroll, this story, by Claire O'Reilly, won four place in the Western district. A real reporter on a real newspaper, and now to keep the job. My heart danced with joy as I realized that the world would at last benefit by talent for writing human interest stories. Ah, that blond young man over there might be a good character for a sob story. Maybe, if I handle him right, he'll give me a few back-in- the-woods ideas about a real city. Kind of lonesome looking chapg prob- ably never been away from his mother before. I sauntered over to him as bold as you please, and handed him a big line. Harder to be interviewed than I thought he would be, but, of course, he fell under the spell of my winning personality, and soon he was talking. H'm, have only been here for a short while ? Well, well, working yet 7 UNO? When are you going back '? Well, glad you like our city. I walked away humming to myself, How You Gonna Keep 'em Down on the Farm '? Ha, not so bad for my first day, I soliloquized. V I went back to the office and wrote the story up, and if I do say so, myself, it was good. But when I walked into the office, every one laughed. They thought I was pretty dumb, I guess. I sat down, picked up a book and began to read. It was the latest book out on interviewing. None of that stuff for me. About three hours later the paper came out. I turned to the second page and looked for my story. It wasn't there. I ran wildly to the edito1 s room to see What the trouble was. When I reached the office, James fthe star reporterj said to me : How does it feel to be photo'd with a celebrity '? Celebrity, why I don't know. Then he held up the paper and there on the front page was my picture with the blond young man I had inter- viewed. Underneath the picture it read: Charles Lindbergh and C. A. Hicks as they were snapped this afternoon, while engaged in lively con- versationf' Of course I knew it was Lindbergh. A good reporter always knows all about the person she interviews. All thatls the matter with me is that I am too good to write human interest stories. That's all: that's all. Page forty-one

TULIP TIME Scene From Act III A group of American students in Fight, Fight, Fight, giving' the Dutch villagers an exhibition of American school spirit. THE OPERETTA One of the most outstanding events of the year was the presentation of the two-act operetta, Tulip Time. This was given by the Glee Club, under the direction of Miss Kathleen Harris, to Whom the success of the production is due. The stage was beautiful in colors, flowers, and wind-mill setting, depicting the village of Osendorf, Holland, during the tulip festival. Seventy-ive girls par- ticipated in the brilliantly costumed chor- uses of Amc1'ican students, villagers and dancers. Character roles were played by Rose Roe, Helen Venus, Mary Breen, Colette Duchesneau, Anne Mihelich, Andree Plen- nevaux, Margaret Stanaway, and Ceil Douris. Miss Kailzlcciz Harris Page fo1'fy-three
