THE CALDRON Jl Freshmen Schoolday ISS SHAFER had just left after leading1 the students in singing. Mr. Hibschman then rose. “I have a few announcements to make this morning,” he said. “There will be a collection taken up foi' moving pictures .(as you pass out.) There will be a boys’ basketball game this noon. That is all.” The Freshmen then rushed for the laboratory, (General Science be- ing their first class.) Mr. Trescott soon entered, looked the class over, and mopped his brow. “What is an electric motor, Lewis?” Lewis Cone scratched his head and finally stated that he hadn’t been able to discover the answer to that question just yet. “Joe Larko, can you answer that question ?” “Well, Mr. Trescott,” answered Joe, “surely you haven’t been teach- ing that chapter on electricity all this time and don’t know what an electric motor is?” Lillian Wingard, Margaret Lezak, and Gertrude Eland then started giggling. ‘Wesley Hunter, will you answer that question?” “I could answer it all right but it wouldn’t be correct.” The class responded with a hearty laugh. After all were quiet Kenneth Walker loudly whispered to Bruce Miller, “What were they laughing Paul Robinson then recited, “An electric motor is a motor that isn’t run by coal.” “Say, that boy is smart,” remarked Laurie Albee. “I wish that old bell would ring,” said Margaret Wetzel. “Same here,” answered Helen Leyde, “I don’t know a thing about motors.” Margaret Wetzel again spoke, “Helen, do you know anything about anything?” “I don’t think you know nothing about nothing yourself,” said Frances Hall. (Bell rings) The Freshies rush around the hall and take their places for an Algebra recitation. Mr. Risley steps into the room and quickly asks, “Vernon Armstrong, what does x-x-2x-x equal ?” “I believe it equals the whole family of x’s.” “You are on the right path.” “Mildred Peterson, do you know the answer?” “Yes, that is a very easy one. It is equal to a-a-2a-a if both a and x have the same numerical value.” “I certainly take my hat off to that girl.” The speaker was no other than Carl Hummel. about?” twenty-six
