I had it nicely strung up when WHDOSH it fell down again. There was Little Junior cutting rocks with my knife. He had also cut the rope of the tent. When I had finally got it put up and had started the fire, NZZZZZZZZHW, fmfty thousand mosqritoee start- ed in on me. I bet they raised welts the size of eggs. I was growing extremely miserable when I looked over and saw Junior -Little Junior, littte no Lara. Ha was absut twice his normal slzc and growing every minute from mosquito bites. I sat down and laughed and laugh- ed. It was sn funny seeing that little pest getting pestored. It was the next up math the funniest there anduHW0W-up I morning that he got oven. I woke fGGllHg in my neck. I reached up jumped. There was a snake the size of a hoe handle around my neck. As I dashed out of the fell in a tub of mud. After I had tent, I txinped and spent about three hours washing myself, I got out only to find my clnthef all tied into knots. I spent the next half-hour untieing them. After this slight mdshap we decided to go fishing. I trudged slowly and painfully tcwards the pier, Junior sittlng astradle of my neck, kicki1g me ln the ribs, tnrowing rocks at every thing in slght, which included two deputy game wardens. When we had finally talked the game warden out of arresting us for destroying pub- lic yxopsrty, we got into the boat and rwwed out to the middle of the lake to fish. 'Just as we were getting comfortably situated, Junior, who wusfstnrcjng on the front of the boat jumping up'and down, fell in My companion rushed to save him, but I told him to let the little Wbratn stay in and cool off for awhile. About a minute later, as I thought he was growing weak, I ' reached over to help him in. He then climbed aboard, an when I tried to get aboard he stamped on my fingers. Finally my compaion held him and I climbed aboard. This, another one of those small events, ended'our fishing trip. I rowcd ashore, packed, and went home vowing never again to go fishing unless by myself. --Harry Frederick, '38 113 -Q -q n -Q n . A d 4.4545-M4649'3+'X-if-45M6555-11--32'3!

Ah! ' That fisherman's paradise, that hunter's delight, the photographer's dream, and, Cas we found out later! the home of fifty million nice, big, jui- cy mosquitoes. At last we were to go to the land of our dreansg at last we were to catch our fill of fish. Such marvelouiistories we had heard as to the quantities of fish. Could we help but catch a million? The only problem standing in our way was transport- ation. what mattered that? Hadn't we a pair of trusty legs? Why not hitch-hike? We found the answer to our question at the end of the first one-half mile. Back home we came. We moped around for three or four days when I suddenly got the bright idea of borrowing a car. Our spirits were up, so we started wandering all over the country trying to borrow a car. We finally got one only by promising to take Little Junior along. We promised, but if we had seen what was ahead of us we would have drowned him. Well, at last we were off. Everyone was happy ex- cept me. I had to give my place to Little Junior. Here I was sitting under everything we had, which included trunks, axes, a sack of flour, fishing tackle,LbozTs,Ja tent, and a suit case full of lead toy boats-- e un- iorsa This suitcase kept sliding down and hitting my head, which eventually gave me a very sever head-ache and also several marble sized bumps. well, as I said, we were off. ioff our headsl. After the first fifty miles I began to get hot, after sixty miles I was hotg after seventy, sweltering, after eithty, we stopped. I crawled out only to find that we had gone up the wrong road. OUCHXLL that hurt. I turned around to find Little Junior throwing rocks the size of your fist at my head. GRRRRRRrrrrrrL I started after him, when suddenly he pulled out a rather formidable looking weapon and started taking pot shots at me. I retveated full speed ahead. Well, sir, I had just got settled when NCOUGH, COUGH, COUGH,N THE MOTOR STQQPED. I walked five miles for gas! There wa n't much ha happened' after that, except Junior shot the hat off of a village marshall and we had to run for it. as as as as as as ee as as as 1. as se as ee ef as as as ee as as as as as as ee ee as as - --...--.-..-.-.1....-1......-.-....--.L-.-.-..-.-.-....-..-...-..... 112 .

SPEECH 1 When I get up in front'of the class, To make an oral speech, ' My knees become all wabbly, And my nerves begin to screech. And then I try to convince myself That they are just as I, ' And though they all make an oral speech, Prefer to curl up and die. But here I am in front of the class, . N My face is just like a beet, ' X And as I just have to make this speech, I'll make it short and sweet. ' Now I must face the audience, All in their own places, ' And all up and down in solid rows, Are faces, faces, faces. Now's my title, and then I begin, The sentence sounds no good, ' ' And though I try to hold them, 'tis vain, For the words come in a flood. I stumble through from start to finish, ' My face is hot and burningg Now I can go back to my own desk For which my heart is yearning. I reach my desk so shamed and forlorn-- Where are those scornful leers? Why doesn't the teacher send me from class? For whom are all those cheers? They're all saying, NThat is just greatu, Wwhat a soeech sho madein ' Nell! I 'just sit down in great amaze, ,,, To let my color fade. , --Patricia Reames, '58 ' 2'- . 2 1 es--as-4:-4:-mes-4+.-se-es-s+-es-4:-ae.-w-as--u'-ez-+5-.'e-41-Je-4s-n-at -3- 44- 41- if a 4, 4 43 114 -
