NEWTONIAN 37 COMMERCIAL Students! Meet Room 3, “spark plug” of I.N.S. Since we came the school hasn ' t been quite normal. Howe ver, under Mr. Riddle, we morons have managed to subside somewhat. So now meet these budding geniuses of tomorrow. First is our president, Eugene Z„ who did such a fine job on the 1943 rugby team. Eugene told us that next to rugby he holds girls as the most im¬ portant factor of his life. Margaret B. and Josephine K„ two charming girls find music and books more entertaining. Then, we have Helen D„ glamour girl of Room 3. Helen likes jazz, sweaters and Air Force men (who doesn’t?). I.N.S. shall see great improvements when Bob M„ fu¬ ture principal, goes into office. Bob has already promised everyone a twelve months’ holiday every year. Worthy secretary, Bill S„ dreams of being called “General Skiba” some day. Meanwhile, he’s busy cultivating that “peach fuzz” on his lips into a moustache (he hopes). Swimming is sports’ captain Charlie H ' s, favorite pastime. Charlie, incidentally, is a virtual woman-hater, wel l, he said so anyway. Mary Mel. and Ann D„ two active femmes, seem to be sold on Mr. Riddle as the best teacher they ever had. But wait—did we hear a shriek just now? Yes, of course, its Bill W. again. He just stuck another pin into someone. He simply loves using people as human pin-cushions. The victims are Helen Ch. and Florence M„ but being nice girls they promise to forgive Bill. Nora W„ Frances P. and Elizabeth B. are known as the most quiet and stu¬ dious pupils. Every room has a genius and we have Helen C. a “whizz” at typing. Additional talent, is Mary M„ who someday will be a female Rem¬ brandt; then she can paint a portrait of Adolphe A. in a becoming pose, smok¬ ing his pipe. Sitting close to Adolphe should be Olga S„ a cute little blonde who has him running in circles. Some- X — ROOM 3 day Luba H. will be a great dancer as well as a hairdresser. But enough of this chatter, we’re in a poetical mood right now, so how about a couple of rhymes? Adeline G. the Miss Canada of Room 3, Said, “An ordinary housewife I want to be.” While Violet M„ vice-president of our class, Will as an aviatrix certainly pass. Elizabeth K., she’s a swell gal, Who is everyone’s pal. Frida M. is noisy at home I’m sure, Although in school she’s shy and de¬ mure. Bill S„ owner of a booming voice, Should make radio announcing a pro¬ fessional choice. P.S. (We’ll probably find him in a liog- calling contest.) Almina K„ a cute Perc Westmore could be For with makeup she’s experienced you see. Many a boy has given chase, To Ruth H„ girl with a pretty face. Said Frank G .: “Someday a king I’ll be, For kings you know, get a fat fee.” Sports ' Captain Stephie S. the society girl, Has given us quite a whirl. And here is Sonya C„ the lass, Who is the writer for this class. Last, we give a great big cheer, To Mr. Riddle, “Man of the Year.” —SONYA CHORKAWAY and STEFFIE SIMKIW. Was Quite Correct Mr. Riddle—“Now, Art, there are various kinds of force. With the greater forces you must be familiar. Can you give an example of a force that per¬ forms a less noticeable work?” Art I.—“Yes, sir—the police force.” Mr. Babb (to biology class)—“What is a caterpillar?” Boris M.—“An upholstered worm.”
