And every few minutes a knock on the door, iVould disturb the peaceful quiet, fcul nearly drive him to a riot. When on the floor — jangle, jingle. Pennies, nickels and dimes did mingle. He turned about, with his finger held out; Without a doubt, he intended to shout. But to our surprise, he did not mention. The noisy incident or a detention. Hardly could he suppress a smile, As he checked more papers down that aisle. Well, that is all. and I’ve said enough, So I ' ll end as 1 was taught by Miss La Boeuf. Voila tout. T3-B — Imagine . . .

With a strong defense and a fast forward line All he has to do is sit hack and recline. They say he wins every game, every night, But his nose is all sunburned from the flashing red light, For his record of stops is low in each game, They score so many goals 1 won ' t mention his name.

CADETS (Continued from Page 13) PRECISION SQUAD... -By DAVID O ' BRIEN Something new has been added to our Ca¬ det Corps this year, it is a Precision Squad. Every Wednesday night after school the cadets in the Precision Squad practise for at least an hour. When they do their part in the inspection they will act without any commands. They do difficult arms drill on the march and the idea is for all the boys to -!n it together. A preci¬ sion squad does all its drill to counts, and if one- boy loses count it will spoil the whole move¬ ment. Cadet Major Allan Probert and ex-Regi- mental Sergeant Major Don Brook have been instructing the cadets with Mr. Malkin as their coach. Some of the members of the Precision Squad are: F. Richman. R. East, G. Scheer. B. Sutherland. G. Chappell. A. Taylor. G. Gross. I. O ' Neill. S. Niescior. D. Harris. J. Puskas. A. Smith, S. Spolnik. J. Hengle. and J Airev. 1 9 4 5 — 1 9 4 6 D. C. R.

Pulling herself together, she remarks. ' Oh well, this period won’t last forever.’ Mr. Morrow (when whispering is heard in the class): “Miss Spitkoski, turn around. Miss Spitkoski: But 1 never said nuthin’. Mr. Morrow: Suspicion, Miss Spitkoski, Just suspicion.” » Magdalene Jerka wants a picture of Rudy. 1 hope he buys a Year Book and reads this.

Class T3-A News By ART LAKE and HELEN LAWTON A typical speech delivered by Mr. McGee to the good, fine, respectable class of T3-A. —And I quote: You guys got the lowest class average in Chemistry. Math.. Literature, and Composition. What are you trying to do- Break all the existing records? Will someone find out if insanity is heredi¬ tary—and if not, get a doctor ' s certificate to prove it to Mr. Adsett once and for all. Mr. McGee: Well, class, are you learning anything?” T3-.A : No, Sir. we ' re listening to you. What happened to the fish chowder Lurna and Betty were supposed to make, and why did the cake burn? Also, when the girls made Mr. Sirrs a piece of chocolate pie. why did the boys refuse to sample it? Three guesses. Is it fact or fiction, that garlic can be grown in Russia nr is Mr. Adsett mistaken r What certain would-be mechanic of T3-c whose initials are H. G., tried to adjust the brakes on a certain Peerless ear without the brake drum on? Oh well, I suppose hell learn in time. Why did T. C. refuse to play the piano for an audience of girls? Was it because he’s shy. or was it because he couldn’t play? Cl-C We put on two T dances this year. The Three O’Clock Jump brought in $30.00 which we gave to the Red Cross. We hope to put on some soon.

Page Twenty-Four T H E TO YV E R S GRADUATING CLASSES 10 4 7 K, the Staff and Student body of the V. I). Lowe Vocational School, wish to extend to the graduates of 1947 our best wishes for success in the world of business and industry. After four short years of intensive study, you are now at the cross¬ roads of life, leading to success or failure. Your future depend; solely on whether you are willing to put forth that final effort which success requires. YVe are confident that, as graduates, you will never lower the high standard set for you by former students. Many times you have probably thought the teachers were a little too hard, but now, at the completion of your four years, you realize that it was discipline, not persecution. You will take away many pleasant memories too. Our most impor¬ tant wish for you. is that all your career will provide you with only the happiest recollections, and that your high school success may be the first of a long series of equally important achievements.
