I HEAR YOU CALLING A COMPLAINT rilE MUNHISKO 21 (With apologies to Edward Albrecht) Ret ween eight and nine in the morning, When the sun is beginning to rule, Comes a voice so loud and ringing. That is known as the ‘‘call for school.” This voice, I heard it call me To get up. it’s time for the late bell, Rut instead I’d rather rest awhile And reply, “I’m not feeling so well.” Rut as I roll on the other side And, my nap, I try to repeat, Two brawny arms caress my neck. And soon I’m on my feet. Though I go to bed before nine. And seldom attend a party, It seems that the old school-bell Plays a joke, and makes me tardy. And may I warn the Sophs and Fresh, Also, Juniors, your attention; “It’s best to be in school on time Than an ev’ning in the room of Detention.” E. R. M., ’27. HIS WIFE’S NAME A chemist’s wife Ann Eliza A civil engineer’s wife.....-............Rridget A gardener's wife Flora A humorist’s wife .........................Sally A clergyman’s wife ........................Marie A shoemaker’s wife ........................Peggy A sexton’s wife............................Relle A porter’s wife .........................

Patience A fisherman’s wife Nettie A gas man’s wife............................Meta A marksman’s wife Aimee A florist’s wife ..........................Pansy An Ohio man grafted a shin of a chicken on his dog’s hack and now the dog can go chase himself. I’m an easy-going fellow, With a disposition mellow, I believe in sitting quiet in the boat; Though my ire is slow in rising. Yet isn’t so surprising. When I Veil you what it is that gets my goat. All day long I toil and worry. Get my work done in a hurry. I’m an energetic worker, there’s no doubt; But at night when rest I’m seeking. Comes a voice to me that’s speaking: You will have to go and clean the cellar out.” Now. I’ll make this one assertion, I don't mind the mere exertion That’s connected with the job I have to do; But no matter how I’m slaving, Here’s the thing that sets me raving. There’s another always waiting when I’m through. I have painted, scrubbed and varnished, Polished all the things that tarnished. 1 have washed and dried the dishes one by one; But tlie jobs do not diminish. For no matter what I finish. There’s another always waiting to be done. E. Milton Goldman. ’27. JOKES No Fooling Antonio—My father was the man who invented macaroni. Maria—My, where did he get the idea? Antonio—From the noodle. Doubling Up A teacher of music in a public school was trying to impress upon her pupils the meaning of f and flf in a song that they were to learn. After explaining the first sign, she said, “Now children, if f means forte, what does tf mean?” “Eighty,” shouted one enthusiastic pupil. Giving Presents He—Would you accept a pet monkey? She—Oh. I would have to ask father. This is so sudden. “That’s enough out of you,” replied the cook as she just completed her task of squeezing a large, juicy lemon.

22 THE MUN1IISKO ISOBEL WOZN1AK Breaks District Record Isobel Wozniak. star forward on the varsity sextette, has the honor of leading the Pittsburgh district in the number of field goals scored. She had scored one hundred and nine in the first six games in which she participated. In the Rankin game she scored twenty-three, in the Braddock game she was held to nine, while in the Nor win and Clairton games she scored fourteen in each ; in the Glassport game she scored twenty-three and in the second Rankin game she broke all existing records by scoring twenty-six. This makes a grand total of one hundred and nine in six games or an average of over eighteen field goals per game. Miss Wozniak’s total and average is greater than that of Miss La wry of Allegheny High, whose record of one hundred field goals in seven games averages fourteen field goals per game. Miss Lawry was acclaimed by the Pittsburgh Post as the leading scorer in the district. Munhall is proud to have the leading scorer in the district among its realms. In nine games, Isobel had accumulated one hundred and fifty-four field goals, averaging seventeen per game, having accumulated against the difficult competition of the Independent Allegheny County girls’ league. The offensive exploits of Miss Wozniak, who has scored four-fifths of Munhall’s points, including many fouls beside the one hundred and fifty-four field goals has been the vehicle instrument in Munhall’s brilliant record. RICHARD H. ROWLEY Our Trainer Richard Rowley, better known as “Dick,” should not he forgotten for the faithful services he rendered to our hoys’ teams. In his work as a trainer, he gained the cooperation and good will of all the boys on the field as well as on the floor. It must he remembered that Dick witnessed every basket-ball and football game possible besides willfully giving aid to the injured and whispering words of encouragement when necessary. It must also he remembered that Dick’s services were rendered without one cent of cost to our school. For the training acquired and the spirit shown by the teammates, as well as the student body, we re greatly affected by the ardent labors of our trainer. And in behalf of the student body, the coach and team mates, we wish to thank Mr. Rowley for his diligent services rendered to us.
