Page Twenty-six TH E R E D A N D B L A C K Commencement Number Henry Witte Gives Impersonation On May 20, we had the opportunity of hearing Shakes- peare's The Taming of the Shrew, as given by Mr. Henry Witte, reader and impersonator. This gave us a chance of comparing Shakespeare, as read by ourselves, and as inter- preted by another. For some time afterwards we heard frequent imitations of Petruchio's laugh. It was hearty to say the least. Carl C. Burkhart Speaks in Assembly In assembly on April 29, we had as our guest and speak- er, Mr. Carl C. Burkhart, who is the Supervisor of Physical Education in the Buffalo Schools. Mr. Burkhart gave a most interesting and beneficial lecture on the Value of Physical Education. As such speeches go, it was out of the ordinary, and we were sorry when it was iinished, con- sidering ourselves lucky to hear such a man. Class Night Exercises This year the Seniors planned a Class Night to be remembered, since they couldn't have a Senior Crazy Day. Wart Tully gives the class poem. fWe predict great things for our Irish poetlg Dode Brooks recalls our past history, and what a history! Tiel Smith predicts our future, which outstrips our past tif that can bebg Tom O'Mealia reads the Last Will and Testament of the illus- trious class of 1927. We're a generous class task the Jun- iorsll Charles Bater is our song writer and Marian Clarke is donor of gifts fthe bill shows our extravagancel. Issy Basso delivers the Senior Charge. Look out Juniors. Be- sides, that we have a Novelty, and Lewie O'Shea is Master of ceremonies. The Last Days Beginning with June 13 the Seniors are a busy crew. They don't mind regents a-tall, not they, but there are other days. On Saturday, June 18, the Juniors and Seniors go to Conesus Lake for their annual picnic, an event enjoyed to the utmost and long remembered. Sunday, June 19, the Baccalaureate exercises take place in Ingham Hall when Rev. W. Edmund Nixon will preach the sermon. The following Monday is Class Night and Tuesday brings the last days to a close with Commencement exer- cises. That Irishman of Ours There's one guy in school whom we all likeg He came from Ireland like Pat and Mike: He can'ies a smile from his chin to his nose As he goes around Whistling, My Wild Irish Rose. He is loved by all and hated by noneg He's as true in his ways as George Washingtong He never appears to be worried or sad: He seems to hear nature calling be glad 3 And Oh! how we love that old Irish boy .Who hangs around always with a heart-full of joy: And as trees cling to the side of a gully, So shall our friendship cling to Watt Tully. C. B. '27 To the 1927 Seniors We just dread to think of next year, When the school will be lacking your cheer- We really hate to see you go, Cuz we know we'll miss you sog Study Hall will resemble a grave yard- Without a Senior face or regardg And our school spirit will die When you utter your parting sigh. Although our new Seniors are aces, They can never quite take your place, As we turn you away from our school, We will follow the usual rule And wish good luck, success, and joy To every Senior girl and boy- Now that you have a good start, Keep on being clever and smart. The World opens its arms to you- And we bid you, Seniors, Adieu. A, Starr '30 Ude To a Janitor You Juniors will certainly be lonesome next year Without us Seniors to help bring you cheerg In yom' spare moments you'll have ' nothing to do Except sit in your seats with a mind dull and blue Just think of the times that we've made you happy, The times that we've helped you to move around snappy, We've helped you prepare lessons as only you should, And taught you to do only things as are good, So if by ill chance next year you should pass, You'll owe all your luck to our great Senior Class! C. B.-'27 The man who works Is the man to hire: The man who can't Is the man to fire. Fool's Dictionary To the breathless schoolboy, who demanded the Fool's Dictionary, I was tempted to reply that I had often longed for such a compilationg but by patient questioning, I found that he wanted Poole's Index. -Outlook.
