Although some of his jokes are pretty dry, he gets a good one across now and then, Sometimes his wit and joking get him into a little difficulty in class, as the Brother has a knack of handing out 2 or 3 pages to copy, and sure enough our good friend Francis is among those to get them Garchie didn't make the varsity in either football or bas- ketball but he tried hard, and in practice sessions he caused the varsity boys plenty of trouble. Francis plans to enter his father's fruit business. With a fresh start before him, we feel sure that Garchie will succeed.
