At Mr. Wylie's request, he has come to inspect ,nd to give his estimation of progress at L.H.S. . Upon entering the office, he is given a cheerful greeting by Katie Nfarker, who is issuing tardy slips to the morning regulars, Cubby McLean, Ray Hardy, and jack Nelson. He is given a hearty welcome from Mr. Wylie. The two discuss old times to- gether and make plans for the future. To start the day off, Prof. Ligonier goes to chapel where a special assembly is being held. Miss Dickinson and the Swing Band are presenting a patriotic program to stress the importance of buying Defense Stamps and Bonds. His heart bursts with pride as he listens to the student body swell in the refrains of Remember Pearl Harbor and the Star-Spangled Banner , After as- sembly, he follows the crowd through the auditorium doors and watches them dis- appear into the rooms of their first class. He begins his tour' by refreshing his mind about angles and circles in Miss Dickinson's Geometry class. Everyone is crouching down in his seat and is holding his breath. Miss Dickinson is about to name someone to recite. johnny Weber is the victim and he reluctantly stammers out the new proposition for the day. With time still remaining, our whiskered friend decides to visit Miss Martins English class to hear Shakespeares Julius Caesar dramatized on records. This is the first year for the records and it seems that the other classes are slightly jealous of our fortunate Fresh- men, Finding the class so interesting, he doesn't notice that the time has elapsed so quickly. Before he knows it, the period is over. At the sound of the class change, Prof. Ligonier conceives the idea of looking at our school from a commercial point of view. He is conducted to Room 5 where he hears a clicking of keys and the ringing of bells. Phyllis Weimer and Mike Sichula are having a race to see which one types the faster. Professor is astounded at the speed and efficiency of Mr. Allshouses students. Al- though bookkeeping and business arithmetic confuse him a bit, he finds his short visit a very instructive one. Hearing the shrill voices and excited shouts of girls in the upper end of the hall, he is told by Leona Rager, the hall stooge , that the girls are playing an exciting game of basketball in the gym, Miss Keffer, the referee, explains to him the fundamentals of the game and he becomes so fascinated, that he is tempted to partake in the game. However, the ringing bell re- minds him that he must be on his way. Undecided as to the class to visit next, he saunters through the hall. Hearing queer sounds, he stumbles upon Room 2, where he listens to the familiar chant of the con- jugation of verbs- Amo, Amas, Amath. Prof, chuckles to himself as he listens to Mrs. Urch's description of the strange Roman customs. Thinking that he'd better polish up on his history, Prof. hurries to Miss Gross' room where he listens to the juniors' heated debates and discussions of War Problems. He leaves the room thoroughly convinced that many of our students pos- sess the qualities of future leaders. When the noon dismissal bell rings, he makes certain that he clears the halls for he doesn't wish to be caught in the mad rush. Whizzzzzzz- Whizzzzzzzzzzzzz-there go Don Eicher and Ed Fish dashing by like streaks of lightning. Back from lunch, the Professor wonders what the afternoon holds in store for him. Biology is an interesting subject, he de- cides, so I believe l'll join the sophomores in some fun under the guidance of Iyfiss Evans, What fun it is to dissect crabs and to watch the girls turn green! But he realizes
