The Report of a Psychiatrist HE members of the Class of 1932 have been very much interested in psychology, many of them having taken profound courses in such awe-inspiring phrases of the subject as psychoanalysis and psychiatry. Naturally they got all wrought up about their repressions and complexes, defense mechanisms, and rationalizations. When the world-renowned psychiatrist, Professor Abdullah Freudson-Brilling, came to town and opened a consulting room for the mentally unfit and the intel- lectually unsettled, all these earnest students rushed to see him. Now, donlt misunderstand me. I am not implying that they were unfit, unsettled, 0r un-anything. They all went to be psychoanalyzed. Of course, no one ever found out What the Professor told them, but it was generally reported that they were most anxious to learn in what field of endeavor they would be most successfulea very natural anxiety. And now comes the exciting part of my story. Last night, I, too, had occasion to enter Professor Abdullah Freuclson-Brillingls office. No, not because of any mental weakness; merely to collect the rent. lVIy mother owns the building. And what do you think? You dont, do you? Well, Illl tell you. The Pro- fessor wasnlt in, and to kill the time I read the magazines on the table in the waiting room. You know the sort of magazines you find in a doctors oHice. Well, the Professorls magazines were even more 50. After Ild read Illodern Pristilla for December, 1910, Literary Digest for June, 1927, and Grandmak 110mg Companion for April, 1890, I looked around for another lot of new, snappy literature. All I could find was a black-eovered notebook at the very bottom of the pile. It was filled with closely typed notes. Just as I was about to Close it, I saw, to my amazement, the names of my classmates. I looked again and discovered that these nOtes were the Professorls private and genuine opinions of those who had consulted him. I confess it without shame: I read that notebook. And what I found out! I copied it down, so Ild not forget. Have no fear that what I,m telling you is incorrect. Itls exactly what the famous psychiatrist wrote about the members of the Senior Class, all of Whom, evidently, consulted him. Ah! Thirty, forty years hence I see a rich manea bankerecounting his gold. His name is LeRoy Luke. Ah! the dainty ladies of society, envied, flattered by allathe queens of every gathering, the belles of every ball-Lola DuChane and Louise Lancasterl I see two happy wives making Ilmoonshineyl and music within their walls. I see them exchanging confidences over the fence as to this or that domestic difIiculty or culinary 0r maternal triumph. These two inseparable girls are Betsy Clark and llSnoox,l Fuqua. Now I feel like eryiny: I must cry this womanls grief overwhelms me. Surely it is some lonely Widow mourning her husband. No, not so. I see nothing like that. ,Tis only a fair bride weeping the loss of her pet poodle. Who is the bride? Her name was oncee-what? lVIaxine lVIcLarty. In ten short years Ellen Burkley has become a national celebrity known as Polly Pry of the Graphic News. She is so alert that she interviews a criminal while he is committing the crime and gets tomorrowls news last week.
