friend Emily Minichiello so that their friendship may outlive their school days. To Elizabeth Smith, a frog, which ought to bring to mind pleasant as- sociations. To Stella Zylka, who likes to ar- gue with a certain person in the ec- onomics class, an electric bulb, which may throw some light on the subject. To Myrtle Hebb, voted the pret- tiest girl in the class, this “Billy’ ' with which she may protect her- self against anything that will “mar” her beauty. To Sophie Kobos, a pair of box- ing gloves, so that she may keep in trim as she has proved a formidable opponent in basketball. To Evelyn Cummings, a pair of lions, to create a familiar environ- ment for her Daniel. To Hilda Saunders, these knitting needles, with which she can learn to knit from a certain boy friend who is considered an expert at fan- cy knitting and crocheting. I then thanked the old gentleman both for myself and for the girls and went on my way rejoicing. GIFTS TO BOYS Mildred Mansfield One day this spring while I was exploring in the airplane willed to me by the Class of 1928, I met with an accident. The first refuge I ob- tained was an old log cabin. Find- ing that no one responded to my knock, I walked in and sank into a large chair by the fireplace. I quickly jumped to my feet again and found I had sat on this razor! Do you imagine what an inspriation that find gave me ? . I just had to have some things for the boys of the Class of 1929 and this would be an ideal place to start my hunt. That was my lucky day because I found something for every boy. This razor is for Jim Merson be- cause he must have one when Ken- yon takes his barbar (Barbara) away. For Frank Raymond, the cave- man of our class, this club to aid him in picking them young and treating them rough. Here’s a bottle of glue (Glew) for “Bill” Marr so he may stick to Marion. For “Cassie” Casali, this calen- dar so he may cut out June and fol- low May himself. This hair net is for “Chris” Georgoplos so he won’t have to use so much “Slickum.” For “Grasshopper” Booth, this gun so he may rescue himself from a Savage. These embroidery hoops are for “Johnny” Comeau so he may learn to embroider as well as crochet and tat. Here’s a skyrocket for Walter Waz to remind him that he needs a spark. This Hersey bar is for “Cecil” Comeau to take the place of his Dunbar. Here’s a bottle of cod liver oil for “Shrimp” Poor, with the hopes that someday he will be big enough to “act his age.” This flower catalogue is for Dan- iels so he may become better ac- quainted with Myrtle. For “Joe” Lenehan, this set of dumbbells to remind him of his lab- oratory mates. These sails are for “Normy” Bax- ter. Elsie will furnish the Hull. William Karchonas, this is not a nut for a nut but a cocoa for a Ko- ko. This elastic is for “Davy” Wil- liams so he may always have a snappy return. This blonde curl is for “Bill” An- gelos to remind him of his “Labor- in Vain” (Road). Here’s a little car for “Chet” Wile so Dorothy will come (Will- comb). This box of water colors is for 21

always, however, cherish the mem- ory of Manning High and all that it has meant to us. GIFTS TO GIRLS Louis Galanis As I was wondering and thinking what to give as gifts to the girls in my graduating class, my imagina- nation slipped away and wandered in the realm of fancy. I walked about an enchanted land where everthing was clean and beautiful, until I met a strange old man who was very inquisitive. I soon found out that this characteristic of his had acquired for him a vast amount of knowledge. We talked for a while and when he heard that I was responsible for presenting gifts to the girls of 1929 on Class Day, he was so eager to help me that finally I consented to consider his opinion of a gift for each girl. After I had given him the names of all the girls with a few facts about each, we sat down on a little mound of grass and earth and were soon lost in deep thought. It was after many weary hours that we got up, smil- ing, because we had finished the following list of gifts to the girls which we knew would please and remind them of their happy high school days : To Eleanor Sheppard, a shovel to dig up old, half-forgotten mem- ories which are buried in New York. To Elizabeth Boynton, a box of cracker Jack. This black cloth is for Mae Leves- que so she can make a black shirt for her friend to wear and enable him to join Mussolini’s Army of Black Shirts. To Frances Ross, a little dog, which will bring back many happy memories of selling hot dogs in school. To Doris Jedrey, a little man who is grey (Benny Grey) around the neck (Little Neck). To Elizabeth Curran, this anchor, to hold her down. To Gertrude Ciolek, these tools, which will be a great help to her in repairing furniture and save her a carpenter’s fee. To Dorothy Willcomb, this chair, which she may use instead of the porch railing while entertaining her friends. To Marion Kinnear,our class man- hater, this fierce bull dog, which at her bidding will growl at, chase, and frighten her deadly enemy — man. To Margaret Lord, this young man, who we hope will cure her of her shyness. To Evelyn Hebb, a box of Poor’s “Pep.” To Mildred Mansfield, this brown hair net, with which she can catch fish if she runs out of bait. (Bates). To Gertrude Phalen, an aero- plane, to provide a more speedy method of transportation than a a Ford. This little cub is for Dot Dunn so she’ll always remember her hours of labor as chief custodian of Man- ning’s Cub. To Pauline Burke, a soft pillow, which will prevent many bad bruis- es if she has it in her possession when she falls out of a car again. To Barbara Damon, our little heart thief, a Jimmy which she can use for breaking and entering hearts. To Emily Saunders, this little lamb, to follow her closely when she and her sister may be separat- ed. To Emily Minichiello, who has written several love poems, this box of tobacco which will inspire her to write more. To Helen Zervas, our class saint, this halo. To Gertrude Riley, a frame in which to preserve Albert’s picture which she now carries in a book. To Bessie Chionopoulos, a tie (bow-tie), to bind her to her 80

“Bill” Geanakakis so he may make a Good-hue. Here are some more animals for Walter Budzianowski so he may continue his duties as manager, (animal crackers). This glass of lambs’ tongues is for “Tony” Starsiak in case he never finds his own. For our famous Captain Machaj this coon doll so he may have a complete change if he ever gets tired of the blond. This loaf of Betsy Ross bread is for “Rus” Arnold. He may imagine that it was made by Frances in- stead of Betsy. This parasol is for “Spin” Galanis so he may hide those pretty Span- ish blushes. For “Garby” Gaffney this lamp shade so he won’t continue to daz- zle us with his wit. For Alec Szklarz, our left fielder this fly paper so he may record all he catches. Last but not least! This rabbit’s tail is for “Pete” Mansfield, because he’s always on behind. Now remember boys “revenge is not sweet!” A PROPHECY Russell Arnold and James Merson Personae — Russell Arnold James M rson Scene — Office of Arnold’s Garage. Time — 20 years after (1949). Rus: How do you do and wha can I do tor you ? Jim: How do you do. (shake hands) Pve just had my car smash- ed up by one of those nutty taxi drivers and he stove my radiator in. Could you have it fixed while I wait ? Rus : Surely, won’t you wait here ? Jim : Certainly, thank you — Say, where did y ou get that book ? Rus : That one ? Jim: Yes. Rus : Oh ! That’s my class year book and, as this is the twentieth anniversary of my graduation from Manning High School, I was just looking through it and wondering what had become of some of my classmates. Jim: I graduated from that class my Say, aren’t you Russell Ar- nold ? Rus: Yes! That’s me. But I can’t seem to place you. Just a min- ute. Isn’t your name James Mer- son ? Jim: That’s it. (shake hands) Well! Well! Well! This is a sort of reunion. Rus: Yes! What are you doing for a living? Jim : Oh ! Pm a travelling sales- man. Rus: Yeh? — Well, how about staying here tonight and letting me show you the town ? Jim : Sure — Pd like to. Rus : By the way, have you heard of any of our classmates lately? Jim: Sure. Pve heard from quite a few. I just ran into Grasshopper Booth by accident. It was one of his Lightning Pontiac Cabs that ruined my radiator. He told me that the tables had turned and that Fred Casali is now working for him as a strater for his cabs at the Plaza. Do you remember how Casali used to pester Gert Ciolek ? Well, she need not fear him now, because she’s a member of the Women’s Police Corps in New York. Boothy told me that he had recent- ly seen the promising young heavy- weight that Walter Budzianowski is managing. Walter told him that he had got so much practice in high school that he had decided to make managing his life work. Rus: Here’s Gertrude Phelan who is now a Ford saleslady. She cer- tainly ought to know what a Ford can stand. Here’s Machaj, our great football captain. He’s the head football coach at Dartmouth College. “Pep” Poor, the little pest, is a lion trainer in the “Mans- 22
