X' History, After A Fasl1lon--- One beautiful Autumn day the good Pilgrim fathers, john NYinthrop Spohrer, John Alden Kroggel and Miles Standish Pierce along with at bevy of Puritan beauties, led by that master of the dance, Claude Gigolo Cleeton, arrived at Rollins St. Rock in their good cars Pontiac, Ford, Buick and etc. They began casting their eyes aboutg in those olden days -eye-casting was nigh on a par with dominoes. After a bit of casting, not to mention some utterly vulgar polkas and gavottes, the kind people realized that they were not there for such things as that. Teh, tehi They had come to shake off the tyrannical rule of the old junior I-Iigh School, and so undoubtedly they ought' to be about their business. The nrst thing was to pick a name for the new home. Someone suggested America as a fitting name for itg but one, by name,, Baker said with an arching of the brow that there was already lieerd tell .of a country by that name. You can well imagine the difficulties those courageous folk endured in order to establish a home for their flock, often called students by the unassuming- and other names by the assuming. XYhat with history teachers running about loose. Egad, what a time they must have had. I mean what a time they must have had findings a name for Rollins Street Rock.

There was a bunch of funny looking numbers under the name which no one could explain until a Miss Pris- cilla Perley brought peace and quiet to the gathering by showing that it was Algebraic equation number 5l5 in the red book. Having thoroughly examined and approved the external surround- ings of the school, the good people decided to enter and christen the sacred halls. The custodian of the key, John Smith Crawford prepared to use the honored key. They laughed when he reached in his pocket, but when he couldn't find the' key their laughter turned to scorn. Could it be true that the 1nost important thing of all was lost. Oh, oh, it can't be truef' cried Miss Casebolt. Is there no justice? sobbed little Edithhee Payne. Page 90 C H -L, l
