THE SPECULATOR THE SPECULATOR Published when one least ex' pects it by Warren Harding High School Bridgeport, Connecticut Price-.O5, if the roomfleadf er's memory is good The Staff The Editor, I. R. Bill Yuss POWER Harding: has illustrated its pre-eminence in every field of endeavor. The prolixity of athletic suc- cess has outshadowed any other achievements that the cooking department has attained. VVe must drop the word can't from our vocabulary and get be- hind our boys. Otherwise our pineal glands will not function properly. Never before in the history of our school have our ath- letes shown greater evi- dence of the true Harding inscrutability, the spirit of Never Say Die . Never- theless you ask, What? VVhy the homework as- signments? While you speak of their length and incomprehensibilitty, we are looking for ways in which to perambulate them. That spirit of determination can do things that are deemed retroactive, even make the goldfish in the Biology room Hop out of their bowl, like Guapenas. But We are getting away from our subject. Yes, every business of to-day wants a real go-getter . Work and conquer is our motto. Though Lindbergh soup has a great moral influ- ence on the complacency and stodfriness of the school janitorial force we must not forget the shouts of acclaim we must tender to those who went down fighting in the cafeteria. Umm O 00Nieu'rs as ensue. Za' R 'i L ALAJXX l ,,,...., wmvnmcuv JV' nw'-xanax-Y Dear Doc Sawyuh: ' I wonder if my poignant experience may be compared with that of Eternal Fugi- tiveu? I was standing in the cafeteria, waiting for the line to move on, when I happened to glance over to the boys' side. By chance there was approaching the till a figure ma- jestic, lofty, attention-holding, He moved with perfect gra-ee, gliding his 'tray ahead of him with eloudlike smoothness, and count- ing his coins in the other hand by a superb -control of the digital muscles. I-Ie was tall, fair-haired, and his steel-iblue eyes penetrat- ed the ozone to me. He stopped jerklessly, paid the bill with the air of a well-to-do per- son who incidentally owns half the stock of the establishment, lifted his tray, smoothly with one hand and set out. He showed the fearlessness of eternal youth overcoming all obstaclesg he might have been a Greek Hero setting out to war. Faultless, he p1vo:ted, and, straight as an arrow, marched directly to his seat, with the lofty pride and bearing of the stag. Watching him, I felt as if I had seen a beacon light in the fog which surrounds me. I left dizzy, transfixed., uplifted. The common daily assignments seemed below mc. ' Suddenly I was brought to earth with a jolt by a voice from across the counter: VVant some hash ? I felt profoundly vexed, offended. I glanced to my right and saw an .empty space. Hastily remarking, with an inward feeling of guilt, that I was trying to decidle what to choose. I passed on, proceeded to my seat, ate little, and dreamed. I was sick- ened by the talk around me, saitiated with the commonplace. I end-ed by doing no English. and 'by tak- ing the consequences. XVould you send me the address of Eter- nal Fugitive. Signed: ONE WHO MUST REMAIN NAMELESS. ' 0 ANSWER: Your hero was a vision, there being no Greek Heroes in Harding who are willing to pay their bills. 90 SMOKE Slowly, silently, now the smoke Belches from fires of burn- ing coke: This way and that it rolls and heaves O'er towers and spires and dirty eaves, Like vaporous ink in heavy clouds Or rising giants in smoky shrouds. I-iitched to the curve the horses sneeze, From 'clouds of dlust 'blown on the breeze. In dusty coops, the chick- ens chick, And wild from smoke, at each other pluck. To his nest in the crown of a sooty hat Over the dump runs a smoky rait. In a house, on a table, in a charred dish. Ready to eat is a dry, smoked fish. HOME ROOM NOTES That atmosphere of dy- namic energy which is so obvious at Warren Hard- ing owes its origin to the versatility of the home rooms. Each room can boast of its peculiar per- sonalities, therefore the most vaunting is 209. With the passing out of its members the construction of a new reputation 'for the school will 'be necessary. In its confines are athletic and professional men, a liberal supply of gentle- men-of-leisure, along with a few shy, sad young poets. The majority being inclin- ed toward the professions, their efficiency and co-op- eration is, of course, notice- able. Their 'frequent as- sembly rehearsals have been caused by that united we stand and fall spirit. When one person gets out of step, others must vary too, fwhile the blaring bugle appeals to the susceptibili- ties of all. They scorn the plaudits of the crowd, how- ever, their own actclama- tions of themselves being sufficient.
