(tins it im THAIS BRUNI AND The boys in our class are quite a tease And now at the end of the year; To pay them back for their pranks and jokes Our chance at last is here. Cedric Billings: Bud is quite the lady ' s man They stick to him like glue; (Play money) If one should ever go astray This money should bring her back to you. John Caloggero: Mousy is our little one We like him just that small; (Big cigar) If he keeps smoking this big cigar He will never ever grow tall. Albert Camplese: You never are complaining That ' s why we like you . . . lots. (Penny) But we wonder what you really think; Here ' s a penny for your thoughts. Llewellyn Chadbourne: Llewellyn aims to join the fleet And sail the Seven Seas, Water wings) Just in case his ship should sink He can keep afloat with these. Robert Conley: Your trombone really gets quite hot When you ploy the iazz and swing. (Potholders) We don ' t want you to burn yourself; Potholders would be just the thing. Russell Davis: (Wolf whistle) Andrew Galanis: (Soop boxes) Though Russell seems so innocent, He sure nuff gets around; This wolf whistle will be handy To warn the girls — by sound.

Richard Gwinn: (Mouse in trap) Peter Hawkins: (Dumbbell) You are quite a hunter. So I ' ve heard you say. Well here is something you can prove Never got away. Since Peter likes to study He ' s acquired studious traits; This dumbbell should remind him Of all his old classmates. Arthur Hills: (Roller skates) Joseph Kisiel: (Toy puppy) Arthur lives so far from town He requires transportation; Here ' s a way which will never need Refilling at each station. Joe gets disgusted with women; He says they mess up his life. Therefore we ' ll give him a puppy To live with instead of a wife. Wallace Lane: (Horrible necktie) Stephen Marvin: (Stamp sign) Edward Murawski: (Candy kisses) Ernest Nikas: (Honey) Your collection of sharp neckties Can really knock one ' s eye out. Add this to the others And the girls will really cry out. Steve enjoys collecting stamps; He won ' t have to look for any If he wears this sign around his neck; I ' ll bet his foot ' ll get many. Since Eddie throws cold shoulders To each and every lass. We have for him a luscious kiss From each girl in the class. Since Tarshy can ' t keep a girl friend. And we want his future sunny; We figure he ' ll not go far astray If he uses this sticky honey.

Philip Publicover: Whenever Phil should have a date And it comes ot a good night kiss; (Ladder) This ladder should help her reach him So it won ' t end up in a miss. Rodney Ricker: Rick depends upon his truck But some mornings it won ' t start. (Little cart) Now if he has a hauling job He can use t his dependable cart. Donald Rodger: Donnie is quite boshful Often his face gets red. (Turtle) Now he can learn from this turtle How to hide his head. Donald Souter: Don is quite a handsome guy His sense of humor ' s tops; (Lolly pops) His disposition is so sweet It ' s like these lolly-pops.

Joseph Waz: The woodwork seems to vibrate When Joe lets loose with his laugh- (Muffler) ter; This muffler should deaden the noise And give us peace hereafter. John Willey: John is quite good looking Of course that ' s no disgrace; (Mask) But if he tires of admiring girls This mask will hide his face. These gifts hove made some faces red And others laugh with glee. As long as the boys are still our friends It ' ll please both Thais and me. 23

GIFTS ¥C GUTS BY ERNEST NIKAS AND DONALD SOUTER Ernest: Whoa! boy, this is far enough. These things are getting heavy. Donald: Suits me. Now I believe in miracles. I thought we would never never get these gifts. Ernest: Same here, but that rummage sale sure saved our hides. I told you that old chest would come in handy. Donald: You bet, and it did hold a treasure, only not quite what we expected. It sure solved half of our problems. Ernest: Well, let ' s unload and get these gifts passed out. Donald: For a start, how about this autographed pic- ture of Alan Ladd for Evelyn Atkinson; I ' m sure she ' d appreciate it. Ernest: Before we go any farther, we have a pleasant threesome in Charlotte Frydrych, Carmen Benoit, and Dotty Jackson, who aspire to be nurses. For these three I ' m sure these thermometers will help them take a step in the right direction. Donald: Alice Burke is always seen wheeling baby carriages around; I thought she might l ike one of her own and go into business. Ernest: They tell me Sally Atkinson wants to be an airline hostess; so I got her this little plane to practice on. Donald: Since Ann Barrett has access to a big black Buick, I got her an instruction license book to use when she finally induces Alex to teach her how to drive. Ernest: I think Susie Bear might be interested in this edition of the Harvard ' Crimson ' . Donald: Speaking of books. Gene Autry has a book out on how to yodel, which I think Thais Bruni would en- joy. Ernest: I hear Ruth Clements is starting a hope chest, and this cookbook could come in handy. They always said that ' The way to a man ' s heart is through his stomach ' . Donald: Yes, and Marcia Caverly could use this sailor to keep her company when the fleet ' s not in. Ernest: To ' Teddy ' Geanakos, I am giving this rubber car, on which there can be no dented fenders. Donald: Since Ann Czegka has a mania for life- guards, I got her an autograph of one. Ernest: For Louise Gianakas, this dish towel ought to serve its purpose while she works in Janice ' s. Donald: This trumpet is for Connie Erickson, straight from Harry James ' Band. Ernest: ' An apple a day keeps the doctor away ' , and what could be more fitting for Hugh Coughlin, who is going to be a dietician? Donald: Evelyn Goodale, who plans to get married, this dishcloth will, of course, serve its purpose. Ernest: I picked up this medical dictionary for Lor- raine Greenleaf who wants to be a medical secretary. Donald: I ' m sure Jean Johnson will have use for this book of poetry, when she becomes an English teacher. Ernest: For Jenny Linberg, this sheet of song music to add to her repertoire. Donald: Here is a comb for Christine Sotiropoulos to keep her hair as neat as ever. Ernest: Being the class boyologist, Marcia Killam should have no trouble putting this lasso to good use. Donald: Since Don Hovey seems to be a permanent fixture at the First National, I got this deed to the build- ing for Amber Knowles, so we ' ll know who ' s boss? Ernest: For Kay Lang, who is ambitious to be a sec- retary, I ' m sure this pencil and notebook will be usable. Donald: I ' m sure Judy Kent will appreciate this Rol- lie-ing pin. ' Ernest: This curler is for Marcia Ready, a must for every hairdresser. Donald: This airmail stamp ought to speed up Sheila Perley ' s letters to Humphrey Bogart and Lauren Bacall. Ernest: Who ' s this package of Herbert Tarrington ' s for? Oh! I know, Ann Robinson. Donald: This pencil sharpener will be useful to Ann Robertson in the office, in case of emergency. Ernest: This pickup truck ought to do the trick when Jane Mulholland is stuck without a car. Donald: This alarm clock ought to be useful for Ellen Sheehan, who hopes to be a farmer ' s wife someday. Ernest: This bottle of pills is for Sally Landry, so she won ' t get seasick when the fleet ' s in, or homesick when it isn ' t. Donald: Being the best dressed girl in the class, Stella Seakas could use this fashion magazine. Ernest: Since Mary Mackenzie is such an ardent horse lover, this one ought to keep her company while she is in college. Donald: Speaking of horses, Rose Lee Johnson ought to enjoy this new saddle. Ernest: Phyllis Marcaurelle, who is always seen wash- ing dishes, will find some use for this Ivory Snow. Donald: To Dotty Perley, I give this box of aspirin, to help her get rid of all the headaches she had while being business manager of the Tiger. Ernest: This saxophone ought to prove worthwhile for Charlotte Stone, and who knows? Johnny might even play it for her. Donald: This clarinet is for Margaret Hills, to hold in reserve if anything should go wrong with her present one. Ernest: A quart of milk from Lane ' s Dairy farm is just the thing for Dotty Knowles. Donald: To Jeanne Sheppard, this green pickup truck so she won ' t always have to depend on Rodney. Ernest: To Ann Spencer, a tube of toothpaste to keep her Ipana smile. Donald: That ' s the last of my gifts. How about you? Ernest: It seems to me that we ' ve included every- body. Donald: Well, I ' m glad to have finished it, but it sure was fun. Ernest: That goes for me, too. 22
