sor Hunt who had tried to sell the natives some Flit. As he switched dials to 5i-W, George Tiefel, George A. Davis, George I.owery, George Bit- ter and Ernest Gentle appeared clinging to driftwood in mid-ocean. Even when they were sinking, Tiefel was endeavoring to collect the seventy-five cents that Ernie owed him for the Tamarack. A charming domestic scene was revealed when Pamela Warren, nee Persons, and Luckie Warren, her dearly beloved spouse, were seen entertaining their intimate friends Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Heckord. Mrs. Keckord was formerly Miss Lillian Watson. At this point the silence was broken by Hetty Agrippina Brown who cattily remarked, I don ' t see how Lillian rates V Back to dear old Spokane we came to see Harold Hinkle, Al Dimond, Beryl Monfort and Dave Slee. The four of them are the new owners of The Spokane Theaters, Incorporated. Then old N. C. flashed on our screen. Bob I ansdon, assisted by Eleanor Kennedy was running the school. Eleanor had replaced Miss Wiedeman. Allyn T. Luenow was the new head janitor and his assistant was none other than M. Gale Beals. At about this time Dave Tinling came skat- ing into the room to replace a weak tube in the television set. On the University of Southern California ' s quoitennis team we found Bert Colburn, Gene Conklin, Harold Sanford and Norman Cooney. Their coach was Miss Constance Jordan, with Muriel Glayzer assisting. As the scene changed we found ourselves face to face with that All-American explorer, Clarke Miller, who was gayly tripping around the North Pole with three or four Polar bears in a barber pole dance. In the background we see Elsie Meyer, Norman Lamb und Marguer- ite Treffry picking away at a petrified Goof- euse bird so that they might satisfy their longing for good old white meat. They no doubt had been living on Christmas seals and dead fish during their trip to the frigid regions of Arctic. Now my children, quoth John Agamemnon Cook as he twirled the bakelite knobs of the televisor under Zimney ' s instruction, we will see what is happening in that interesting little monarchy of Graustark. Margaret Sievert and Theodore Roe were the new plenipotentiaries of this great country. Arnola Sharpnack was heading the police force in the capital. Living in this quaint principality which was so favored by members of our class was that eminent author, Al Bed Walsh, whose great- est work is entitled, Brains Win, or Up From the Gutter. We shifted our television scene to a fast traveling continental train. The porter was none other than Dick Ellarson. We saw the following traveling salesmen in their Pullman car: Jess Hancock, Ralph Whitmus, Marshall Jones, Ray Steffey and Valaire Van Hook. At about this time, we grew weary, the set blew out a half dozen tubes and we all went home to bed. SIGNED: JUNIOR METCALFE BETTY BROWN JOHN H. COOK +• GOLDEN HILLS OF ST. JOHN Fihst Prize Pokm Mary Roller Pierced by the desert ' s golden gleams, I lifted trembling hands; Then opening wide my blinded eyes I strained to see again. Lying there a golden pool And from its sloping edge Rose hills of dazzling splendour, A shining mountain hedge. Hills of glimmering yellow That shrank and seemed to fall Till my madness called them haystacks; The hills— not hills at all. Then, as the sun sank lower, The world began to grow ; And from the dim receding hills, I i erceived a dull, pale glow. [29]
