1 x ooK Boa ARD TO '40 unior Americanibus QGenus Dopusj This queer animal combines the charac- teristics of various members of the animal kingdom and is usually found residing in or near high schools over the greater part of the United States. Sheer laziness, ordinarily attributed only to the sloth is the cardinal mark of the junior fcommonly known as dope, jerk, drip and, slug. j In 1939 the junior was shown to be a definitely differ- ent species from the homo sapiens Chu- man beingj which it so closely resembles If any human being makes the mistake of associating with a junior over an elon- gated period' of time he unconsciously ex- poses himself, frequently with disastrous results. The research, recently made public, at- tempts to prove the theory that juniors really are human beings, merely suffering with a dreadful 'malady of unknown in- tensity. According to the hypothesis when the high school student reaches his junior year, work begins to grow more diflicult. If the student possesses unusual mental faculties, he is safe but otherwise only the certain fate of being classed as junior Americauibus remains. The scientists fur- ther contend that this disease is typified by, at least, a temporary mental relapse. Much has been brought to light concern- ing the habits of the species but as yet no practical method of checking the ravages of this dreadful malady has been suggested, Every year more and more unfortunate students contract this disease and suffer dreadfully, and apparently the slaughter of the innocents will have to continue until science iscovers the solution to this prob- lem.
