RED AND BLACK Class VVill We, the class of '32, of the Glens Falls High School, being of....... mind and memory, do make, publish and declare this our last Will and Testa- ment, in manner following, that is to say: First: To the class of '33 we leave, as is the custom, the privilege of hold- ing down tor holding up lj the seats of the first two rows in assembly. We also leave the trophy case, outside Room N lobby, so that up and coming seniors may park their books. CNotice this says books, not gumlj To Marjorie Bronne, whose vocabulary is really quite overwhelming, Betty Davis leaves her gift for gathering scandalous facts. CIt will broaden your vocabulary, Margell Charlie Ringwood has consented to leave his rare secrets of becoming popular to Robert Morgan. Bob, youlve something to start with anyway-your raspberry is almost perfected. Horace Barber, Dick Patterson and Dick Williamson will greatly appreciate our oifer of Bob Crawford 's Latest Style Hints,'l suggesting trousers in pastel colors for next season. We bet you boys are all a-twitter in hopes you 'll be the first to wear a pair of baby-blue or shell-pink pants. Margaret Mooney has willingly offered Lillian Shapiro a bit of her slow drawl, hoping that with this improvement she will be more the likeness of the great orator, Caesar. John Robinson decided somewhat reluctantly to leave his cunning little boyish pranks to Clendon Crannell, to whom they'll be more becoming. Ask questions and you'll be a Knowing Woman is Gay Foley's wise policy, which she will permit only Annette Chesler and Elizabeth Strong to practice. Each member of the Senior Play Cast leaves a share of that good-ole-home talent to the new Senior Thespians with the hope that it may prove to be of some use next spring when they present their class play. Celia Gersten leaves to Dot Jensen the right to collect teeth at Fort Edward games, and at all other future games. A toof's a toof, 'tJennie'l! Lastly, we hereby appoint Miss Wentworth administratrix of this our last VVill and Testament, hereby anulling all wills previously administered by us. We, whose names are hereto fabricated, do certify that on the 23rd day of June, 1932, the testators above fabricated their names to this instrument in our presence and in the presence of each of us, and at the same time, in our presence and hearing, swore the same to be their last Will and Testament, and solicitated us, and each of us, to sign our names thereto as witnesses to the execution thereof, which we hereby do in the presence of the testators and of each other on the day of the date of the said Will.

RED AND BLACK Grace Vosburg, Margaret Van Orman, and Marjorie Stewart. Celia Gersten and Bessie Goldstein became aviation fiends Cbecause of Coolidge Thomasj and were thinking of organizing a flying school. Florence Davis-what became of her? Oh, she must have done something unusual. Well, she did. She died from embarrassment when in public she was caught reading Ballyhoo -not that that was any crime, but she had been caught laughing at an apparently meaningless joke, and had been asked to explain it. Our secretary again laughed --fthe Davis sisters had been that wayb. Tony Cafaro and Dot Heming had been recently mentioned in a famous column in a New York paper as being that way. Well, the files refused to yield up any more information, and the secretary decided to call it a day. So she started home About two blocks from the office, she was attracted by a raucous voice assailing a crowd, and through the power of its owner 's eloquence, inducing them to buy shovels at a premium rate. As the secretary approached, she discovered George Jones. So he had Hnally come to this! He had only one person to blame, and that was himself. Many times had he been warned to work harder. George could tell her of some of the class, she felt sure. So she asked him. It developed that Lillian Monroe, Margaret Mooney, Rita Tierney, and Esther Pitkin were all in the employ of the Hrolder Tobacco Corporation, taking daily blindfold tests. Each time they took a test, they changed their names. The corporation paid them double if they guessed the right brand. Marian Merritt, who had become famous as a scenario writer Qshe knew all the movie plots by heartb, made her pile'l by indulging in a little teamwork. She collaborated with Ruth Gould Cwho could sling paint in a convincing mannerj and, together, they thought up some rather colorful scenes. Willard Stevens and Warren Steves decided to change names, and they formed a part- nership in the blacksmith business Cthere being no horses leftj. Helen Smith was designing ravishing gowns in Paris for Patou. IIow tremendous! QPrices, too-don't you imaginefj Howard Mosher and Kent Rainville became gigolos-some life! Donald Ralston found steady employment in a one-ring circus, while in the other ring Sidney Van Dusen held sway. Oh, pardon-it's a one-ring circus, but Sidney held sway anyway. Frank Martin spent his prime in the window of the Glass Bakery testing chocolate eclairs. In the rear of the bakery, George Selleck created delightful angel food cake, in memory of his old friend, Mr. Angell. And that, concluded George, is all. With a sigh the secretary, who was, by the way Eileen Snyder, turned toward home. The class-gone, dispersed-were living their lives as a part of the humming, throbbing, pulsating world. Twenty-two
