SCIENCE + a+ +and 1 -,- 3 Pwslcfxls toucf-mom Our ears are suddenly blasted by the sound of a shrill whistle. Someone escape? WC ask. I think that was Mr. Barnes showing the physics class his steam engine,' answers Squeakie. He teaches Biology, too, but there's nothing he likes better than a good old steam engine. Then cutting up worms is not his real love. Not especially. The budding biologists go on hikes and collect leaves and all sorts of interesting things, that is if you like that sort of thing??? Well, now thatls settled, let's go on with the gym.', Oh, look Squeakie, a boxing match! l'That's right. And that's Mr. Mefort showing 'em how. He told me once his childhood ambition was to grow up. Oh well, one can't have everything, Suddenly the bell rings and we find ourselves surrounded by beaming girls in blue gym suits. Miss Davis appears to decide who should wear the red tops. She's really sports minded, says Squeakie. Especially hockey and the Barons. A Woman after our own heartf' we murmur. Florence Davis Carlton Mefort A.B. M.A. Howard Barnes A.B., B.S.-Ed B.S. MS.

U- Hfffffff Callfgp UlliI'l'l'XifJ' of Norllv Crzrolinu As we enter what we presume to be a history class, we pause in astonish- ment at the words of wisdom flowing from the pupils, mouths. They go from Columbus clear to Trumanf, says Squeakic. How wonderfulfi we enthuse. We never got past the Civil War. We start in surprise as Miss Tobin says, Speaking of the Civil War, fand we thought we were being so quiet tooj how do you spell APPOMATOXPD Poor kids, sighs Squeakie. This class has more trouble with spelling than they do with dates. We can imagine, we say, admiring a sweet young thing in the third row. I think Ild better take you back to the junior high, says Squeakie knowingly. . l-1. .l -l1.ll. Why are all the girls paying such good attention in this class? we ask as we peep in fleetingly at Mr. Higham. Guess,,' is Squeakieis answer. Here's Miss Cheney's class. Good old fundamental history, we says appreciatively. That's im- portant whatever you do. fmzrlccn

Squeakie how come all those a's and x's and stuff on the black board? We thought this was a Math class, we say as we wander casually into a class room. It is, returns Squeakie. An algebra class. We shudder. Algebra! How well we remember. But who's the genial gentleman up front? That's Mr. Andrews, Squeakie says. An admirer of Abraham Lincoln and a lover of steaks and fishing. Does he actually like algebra, too? we ask, suspiciously. Natch, answers Squeakie. We have other people around here who like it too. Come on. Please, Squeakief' we beg piteously. Spare us. But it isn't so bad,', Squeakie assure us. After all, if a little person like Miss Giffin can understand it and still have time for music and other stuff, you can at least look around a little. All right, we sigh resignedly. Our attention is immediately attracted by a strange phenomena. Squeakie, how come no femmes? I guess they Hgured that if they got through algebra and geometry they had better quit while they had a chance. Here's Mr. Harper's junior high class. Maybe you'll feel more at home here, Squeakie comforts us. Right! Practical stuff, that's what we need. MATHEMATICS C. Garry Andrews Nellie Giffin Bernard Harper A.B. B. S. in Ed. B. S. in Ed.
