' There is 'cStacomb Spencer, the Boy Wonder. He eats, he sleeps, he drinks like any other human but never answers a call on time-the boy with the womanly shape. ' Now there is Houston Wallace, the Camp Goof. He is a direct descendent from Jocko, the missing link. Tell him you know me.

' Student Keith Claterj-C'Say, Haslach, that guy ainft got no heartlw Student Sam Scull made a remark that down home in Arkansas he never had to go outside of his shack to herd the sheep. When asked how he did it, he replied with a sheep- ish grin, c'The hills are so high that all I have to do is look up the chimney to see the sheep grazmgf' - , Vincent G..
