From these students the Kelvynian staff is made up. Then, actual Work begins. The entire staff roams the halls, pursuing bashful seniors in search of inter- views to obtain information for the individual character sketches. In these character sketches the accomplishments of each person for his four years at Kelvyn must be condensed into forty words or less. Another problem in con- nection With the character sketches is the spelling of the names, since experi- ence has shcwn that a misspelled name usually brings out the Worst in the nature of the vict'm. While the gradrates are thus being accounted for, the articles are taking shape. The prospective Kelvynian author spends many evenings Writing his first draft, second draft, third draft, fourth . . . ad infinitum. By the time the final result is achieved, there is practically no resemblance to the original crude product. In the meantime, division circulation managers have been perambulating around divisions in search of subscribers, and the production staff has been counting words, lines, and paragraphs, getting each article to its proper size. Then, before one realizes that time has slipped by, the yearbook is out, and the student body is scurrying around collecting autographs. l26l

UUU HRE HH HDDLESEEHT! You are an adolescent! How do you know? Well, your legs suddenly begin to get out of control and relax in the most awkward positions . . . You start to switch the radio, from Freckles Fitzsimmons, the Super Super Super Cmonotonous, isn't it?l Quiz Kid to Iumpin' Ierry cmd his livin' Iitterbugs, the newest, hottest band on the air . . . You begin read- ing boy-meets-girl novels and leave your series of Sherlockia Holmes, that amazing girl detective, to gather dust on the shelves . . . You start to wear make-up and begin the period in your life where one-tenth of your day is spent in making-up and the remain- ing nine-tenths in repairing and re- modeling the original job . . . You get your first permanent and slowly become adjusted to sleeping with half a hardware store in your hair . . . You start to live chiefly on hot dogs and cokes, despite your mother's exclamations that it is definitely not a balanced diet and you are not getting the proper number of calories and vitamins . . . The movies become a greater influence in your life than ever before . . . You stop going to see the Saturday serials in which the hero is practically killed at the end of every chapter and start seeing that new fiery love team, Byron Flower and Nita Gayworth . . . You begin imitating all the new fads you see on the screen, coming to school one day with your hair in your eyes a la Veronica Lake, and wearing midget stilts on your feet in Carmen Miranda style, the next . . . You develop crushes on each male star until you learn he has a wife, three children, two dogs and one toupee . . . You start wearing saddle shoes which look as if they have been through the Thirty Years' War and sweaters that would be big even on Lou Costello . . . You become conscious of the fact that there is such a thing as color in clothes, and perhaps a red plaid skirt would not go so well with a violet sweater . . . You thumb all the latest style magazines for fashions which you think will give you that Fifth Avenue chic, but only succeed in giving you that Third Street droop . . . You start wearing dark red nail polish which you diligently put on every night and peel otf by slow degrees during the day . . . You discover that there is something to dancing besides the two-step: you even begin to practice jiu-jitsu in order to become more hep in jitterbugging . . . You suddenly become aware of the fact that there is such a thing as boys, and that those two-legged animals with slingshots and spitballs whose mere presence used to cause you extreme embarrassment, now make you feel giddy if they just acknowledge that you exist . . . You begin wearing open-toed and high-heeled shoes which you soon regret when the walking distance becomes greater than two blocks and the rainy weather causes water to trickle in the open toes . . . You become a mem- ber of a crowd whose chief function is to exchange the latest communiques from the local romantic battlefronts . . . You start greeting your friends with What's buzzin', cousin? and leave With, l'll be flittin' kitten. Ah, yes! You are an adolescent! Ruth van Vlaardingen 28
