(May it smack as well and last as long as it did for me.) Article VI. I, Ann Jones, bequeath my faithfulness in clinging to my first love to Joan Patterson. Article VII.

I, Edward Coleman, bequeath my red nose, success with the Yellow Jacket, and the lines in Miss Brothers' forehead to the next editor-in-chief of the said paper. Article XI. I, Billy Cusack, will my ability to cut up in class and act just serious enough to get away with it to Bobby Muldrow, The Tans Bay Terror. Article XII. We, Carol Still, Sydnor Cain, and Marjorie Harrell, leave our 90” averages, knowing they will worry about them, to Betty Harrell, Betty C. Howell, and Joan Baker. Article XIII. I, Mary Sprott, bequeath my come hither look and attraction for the opposite sex to Flora McLeod. Article XIV. I, Billie Cauthen, will my never-say-die spirit to Catherine Crosby. Article XV. We, the Senior members of the Boys' Hi-Y Club, leave our constant clamoring for a hay-ride to the new Sophomore members of next year—hope they have as much fun as we had. Article XVI. I, Sonny Bonnoit, bequeath my private parking space at Dead End to Lukie” Brunson. Article XVII. I, Rebecca Lake Fuller, hereby will my gift of gab to Frances Tuttle. Article XVIII.
