L'orrro'or Patrol There goes the warning bell and here I am just going into school. Will I ever learn to get up early enough to get to school when the entrance bell rings! Well, seeing what time it is, I had better hurry to my locker. I think I'll run up these steps so I'll have time to talk to Mabel. Oh! Oh! did I hear someone say, XValk up the steps? Okay, next time-and now to see Mabel. There she goes down the hall. Mabel! Mabel! Oh rats, she can't hear me. I'll have to hurry up to catch her. Mabel, come on down to my locker with me. I have some very important things to tell you. You know when I was walking-er-walking pretty fast some girl told me to quit running and to walk up the steps. I bet if she knew how much of a hurry I was in to see you she would' have let me fly up, and did you notice that girl that stopped me when I was running down the hall. Hadn't you girls better go to your home rooms? The warning bell has rungand it's almost time for the tardy bell. Now tocldle on. Mabel, I'll see you in first period class and tell you the news. Well, I wish this home room period was over. Oh! goody, there's the bell-now I'll get to see Mabel. Oh, there she is now. Mabel, here's the news: Mr, Huber is putting me on Corridor Patrol this noon. Street Patrol Well, here I am in this boy's mouth, and he's continually blowing on me. I make those big people and enormous cars obey me at the sound of my voice. You know I've seen and have had many experiences out here in the middle of the street. For instance, many cars come very close to this boy, and I hear many wisecracks given to him for not blowing me when they think he should. I come out here every morning and noon and stay here for fifteen minutes. I'll tell you one thing that gives me a thrill is two trucks passing me at the same time. Sometimes I wish I weren't out here, but when I get to thinking of all the lives I save and of the many accidents I prevent, I quickly change my mind. Many boys in Central respond to my call at the beginning of school to help promote safety. Sometimes more boys respond than Mr. Huber can take care of and then he has to put them in shifts: for example, a different boy at each corner every morning, noon and night. We have much fun on our jobs and wouldn't give them up for anything. RUTH ESTHER MAY -63..

A fappella President - Henry Timmerman Secretary - - Natalie Gregg Treasurer - Frances Ousley Advisor W. G.. Tempel Allow me to introduce myself, folks. I'm the little knot hole in the baseboard of Room 208. Being a very luck little knot hole, I was placed in the music room. The things I could tell you would fill volumes, but I'll bet you'd like me to specialize, Wouldn't you? All right, let's talk about the A Cappella choir. My poor brother Andy is a knot hole in the teacher's desk and, do you know, he misses out on nearly everything because all the choir members lay their books on top of him. When the students enter, the director keeps urging them .to hurry and believe you me they really do. One minute I can see the music stacked up and the next minute everyone has the right page and they're all set to go. It's a good thing I'm' a calm little not hole, for this is definitely not the room where a person could End any of that. Generally there are around eighty voices echoing through the room. Sometimes the music is so melodious that I just can't refrain from singing along with them. Whenever I do that, the director makes everyone stop singing: then he teaches them all the tenor part. Being such a busy man, he never has time to think about little knot holes and their melodious efforts: therefore my musical education must come from listening to what he tells the students. Thank goodness the choir learns the song by prac- ticing each phrase and so by the time they know a new song, I know most of it also. My number one peeve is that I am nailed to the floor, and that I can't go along when the choir sings outside of schoolr However, I honestly prefer my location to any previous one because everyone here is always happy. They have to be or they couldn't sing in such a joyous manner. ELEANOR WILDERMUTH 6f7ls' Wee Did I hear you mention something about Girls' Glee? Why, I'd love to tell you about them. Ah, something new has been added! As a knothole I get all my news first hand so I'll tell you about the improvement in the music program here at Central. This year the melodious beauties-Girls' Glee to you-is composed of the female members of the A Cappella choir. They have no officers and no regular meeting period of their own, but practice when necessary under Mr. VJ. G. Tempel's direction. Just as I said before I certainly hate to be left behind when the Girls' Glee goes outside the school to perform for the public, but to make up for the fact that I'm stationary all the next day I hear the girls discussing the good time they had singing for the Open Forum or the P,-T, A. dressed in the- darks skirts and white blouses. I'll bet they looked pretty, don't you? Honestly, though, I wouldn't give up my place as a knothole in the music roo-m for all the other places in Central. Where else could you see all those lively boys and girls, or hear such lovely, lovely music? ' JOAN LUTES -5 5--
