The Windsor-Walkerville Technical School Year Book 65 Then knock-out Wilkins who sure can box! If you don’t think so, stop a few socks. Look over Niemi who’s very gruff, But don’t kid yourself—he knows his stuff. They say Art Mann studies a lot; Don’t believe it, it ' s a lot of rot. There’s also Bill Merry, Milne and White, They never work and are always on strike. There’s the artist, Alex. Odevseff, He works in a restaurant and makes a good chef. The rest of the form will speak for it¬ self; They don’t hide at the back of the shelf. Now look us over—w e don’t fool; T. 3. B. from the Technical School. ART MANN -O- IMPOSSIBIBLITIES IN T-3-B WHITE being good looking. HALLIDAY keeping still. HULL acting sensible. POPE sitting in his own seat. IRA beating up ODEVSSF. PARENT handing in completed work. MERRY with dirty finger nails. NIEMI with his hair combed. WILKINS with his hair mussed. -O- WE LAUGH Instructor: Where are the Rocky Mount¬ ains the broadest? T.3.B. (In chorus): At the bottom. I.anglois: How long could I live with¬ out brains? Teacher: That remains to be seen. “Look papa, Ira’s cold is cured and we still got left a box of cough-drops. “Oo, vot extravagance! Tell Herman to get his feet wet. Merry: What’s the awful noise on the campus ? Jerry: Why, that’s an owl. Merry: I know it’s an owl, but oo’s ’owl- ing? Question: What is the difference between a cat and a comma? Answer: A cat has it’s clause at the end of it’s paws, while a comma has it’s pause at the end of it’s clause. Instructor: Merry, if you don’t be good you ' ll get a walking ticket. Merry: Please, dear teacher, what does a walking ticket look like? -O- Who Knows? I used to think I knew I knew, But now I must confess; The more I know I know I know, I know I know the less. GERALD BOURNE, (Philosopher) -o- C-3-C VANITIES. Miss Terry Lucier leads us all, When dancing she makes hardly a sound at all. And Francis St. Amour comes very near, But sound from spike heels you expect to hear. Miss Dorothy Child is next in the line, Powders her nose to take off the shine. Winnie Fullerton so thort and thin, Quits her studies as soon as she begins. Florence Miller has a twinkling eye, She doesn’t worry, so why should I? Miss Grace Beckett excels in Busine Law, The answers she gives fill the rest with awe. Then of course, there ' s Kathryn Brooks. She spends a lot of time with her books. Miss Red Brady is official door-stop, Lifts the curtain and lets it drop. And there will certainly be something doin’ If we forgot to mention Josephine Goulin. I know a girl, E. A. L. f If her name you’d have me tell; You must first then of me beg it, It is Eileen Alice Leggatt. The author’s name I must not tell. It is just plain D. E. L v So this little ditty I’ll bring to an end; Hoping I have said nothing that will offend. DORIS LEGGATT.

Bercuson. “The Art of Make-up” by L. Sedlesky. “Why Hollywood went wild over me” by E. Leigh. -o- C-3-B POEM In this form of C-3-B All the members are proud to be. There’s Cecilia Tschirhart and Ce- cile Lepine, The latter’s known as the ‘lipstick queen’. There is a little boy named Rad- igan, He may surprise us and grow up to be a big man! Ross Howard may have big feet, But he’s an all ’round good athlete. Jeanne is smart; Evelyn is smart¬ er; Which means Mildred has to study a little harder. Macdonald, a naughtly little boy he would be, So, to Mr. Fraser he must come af¬ ter three. Duffy is the baby of the class, It is doubted if in June he will pass. Bercuson, or rather, Saul, Will soon learn to type without looking at all. Lillian and Elsie think they can sing! They’re always talking about har¬ monizing. Leigh’s knees may be weak. Rut, Oh Boy! How that boy can speak. Margaret. Hyttenrauch is rather stout; Marg. Horton with a basketball runs all about. There’s Bella and Beatrice and lazy Mitch., And Irene and Rosie Yozevovitch. And Florence and Mabel an d Vera Pepper, And the Cliffes and Burnside who’s a pretty hot stepper. There are others in this form who number six; But I guess I won’t get them into this mix. MARGARET HORTON, C3P. Brent: What is the date, please? Teacher: Never mind the date, the ex¬ amination is more important. Brent: Well, sir, 1 wanted to have some¬ th ing right on my paper. Berton: I wish every year had three hundred and sixty-five days of rest. Ralph: Are you mad? Then we would have to work a day every leap year. ♦ Teacher: Abe, how much would $500. at 2 per cent, amount to at the end oi one year? —No answer. Teacher: Don’t you know that, Abe? Abe: Yes, teacher, but I’m not interestc in two per cent. THE WONDERFUL FORM OF T-3-B Now you come to T.3.B. The best class you ever did see; While in mathematics ye do not mope. Just Ask Mr. Bennett, he’ll give you th dope. When first you enter the room you’ll meet Langlois with the great big feet; And looking down to the centre of th room. You’ll hear a voice loud; You ’ll know its Bourne if there’s a crowd. Then will be seen a fellow with a grin— It’s Bogeman amidst the din. Then we have Carley, the track team champ, And Fred Morneau who on the baseball field does tramp. He shakes a wicked leg And says he’s got a wicked peg. Then there’s Halliday who thinks he’s bright; But the rest of us say he’s far from right.

66 The Windsor-Walkerville Technical School Year Book C-3-C HEARS THESE A Trial Balance is — having diff¬ iculty. Don’t be so loquacious. When did the dark ages begin? Now just a few words about the Hockey Team. Who is doing the talking now ? Please hand in this exercise for to¬ morrow. ■-o- SAYINGS OF FAMOUS STUDENTS A. Wandor—Say, Kiddie! F,. Barash—Please, may we go down to the auditorium to practice? F. Miller—Girls, you should see Frank! .1. Goulin—Oh! I was absent for that. K. Chapman—Oh! yes, and I went on a sleigh ride last night. F. St. Amour—Have you your ticket for the game? M. Leigh—I don’t understand it, even yet. -o- — SECOND FORM — When pupils enter school life as second formers, they feel a little more responsible than they did the year before. They perhaps show real enthusiasm in sports, they are more eligible to compete wth high¬ er forms, and they show more in¬ terest in their school work. This year the second formers alone were allowed to compete for the junior cup given for the best Tech United programme. In the oratorical contest, a second form girl won second place in the junior girls’ competition. A boy or girl in second form be¬ gins to feel that the school is his home, and that he owes a good deal to it. For this reason, it is here that a real school spirit begins to manifest itself and to develop. AGNES WAIDE ' -o- C-2-A C2A played a very successful game in basketball last term again¬ st C2B. Both teams were evenly matched and put up a hard fight. At the end of the period the score was 3—2 in favour of 2A. Two interesting debates were he ' d in C2A form. HEARD IN THE CLASS Class Teacher: Now, class, for homework take exercises 70, 71, 72, 73 and 74. Olive Shurak: I haven’t any idea Noella Bertrand: Let me see the mirror, Mary. Anna Warsh: Well, you see, it was this way. Mary Berbynuk: Who’s got my apple? Daisy Curtis: Do my face and hair look all right? Edythe Alexander: I was absent. Miss. Agnes Beauchamp: Do it yourself, I had to do it myself. Doris Payne: Lend me that book please. Pamela Todd: I hope I get 100 in Geo¬ graphy. Toba Sherman: What do we have for homework, Miss Cragg? Mary Doloughen: It takes the Irish to do it. Helen Smadu: Oh! Boy. Bella Summers: Say, listen! Hattie Ion: I wasn’t talking. Vivian Howe: I read that ltook, but I don ' t like it. T-2-A T2A is progressing rapidly in the way of knowledge and sport. We all get 100 ' . on our exams—50. We put on a play “The Boston Tea Par¬ ty”, and with T2B we made it the best play put on by any class in “Tech United”. We expect to win the cup. We are not only literary bat we have a winning basketball team, having beaten everybody so far, (we only played one game). We contribute a star hockey player when we send Clinansmith to play for the school team. Two of our energetic young bloods attempted to do the “Eliza Act” by crossing the Detroit RiveF on ice two inches thick, meaning to cheat the Ferry Company out of 20 cents, but the journey ended up with a swim.
