The Administration and Faculty for the boys and girls with little glory awarded them. Our superintendents a fine fellow, Snooper thought as he left the office. I have a great write-up for the Periscope. Now, down the hill for another interview. Before long he skipped up the High School steps, tail beating a tattoo on the empty air. As usual, MRS. KIPP, MR. REITZ'S secretary, had a tasty bone ready to fortify him for his coming ordeal. Munching thoughtfully, Snooper prepared his notebook for the interview. As Mr. Reitz disclosed the highlights of his activities, our Periscope reporter jotted down these interesting notes: received AB. degree, Gettysburg College--postgraduate work at Universities of Chicago and Pittsburghiinstructor, Trust Insur- ance Company-head of Math Department, As- pinwall High School-l3 years principal, O. H. S. --ardent sportsmanlenjoys fishing and hunt- ingimember of various educational organizations and Rotary Club of Oakmont. In way of thanks, Snooper shook paws with Mr. Reitz. Mischievously scattering Mrs. Kipp's papers as he left the office, he thought to himself, Theres a man sincere in his work. His own initiative worn out, Snooper began to follow his nose which was being literally pulled along by an antiseptic odor. This gave him to believe that members of the medical profession lurked nearby. He was right. ln the boardroom surrounded by cotton wads and bottles of different shapes, sizes and smells, were DR. WEBB, the dentist, MRS. WEAVER, the dental hygienist, DR. FUSIA, the school doctor, and our school nurse, MRS. HAMILTON, the four able-bodied guardians of the health of boys and girls in the Cakmont schools. Since Snooper didn't care to be probed and swabbed in the ticklish spots of his tender anatomy, he quietly slunk by and took his place in the main hallway of O. H. S. W. L.

QL Drinking fountains spurted, bulletin boards gasped for air, and door frames groaned over the iabber and hurn of the corridor sentry, which consisted of nine-tenths ot all the O. H. S. students. The other tenth was holding down the curbstones outside the building. Snooper shook his head in disniay, his flop ears flopping in the breeze. Suddenly the terrible din of a gong srnote these sanie ears and everyone seemed to rush in a different direction. Wlien Snooper had recovered froin the Whirlwind, and the last door had banged be- hind the last scurrying student, he tucked his notebook under his arrn and began his inspection of O. H. S. He saw MISS OFF- UTT with her arnis loaded with books, so padded after her to General Math class. However, this was not the principle interest of his doggie brain, and he rneandered to Hooni 9 where MR. GLENN was glibly as- signing a fifty-itern journal to a inath class. Floating out on the wave of resulting groans, Snooper found hirnself inside the door of MISS SHELL!-XBY'S stenography class in lU6, which is the hoine of the Oak Leat. Peering over the shoulder of a busy shorthand stu- dent, he perceived a page of curls and quirks that extended beyond even his imagination. Deciding that this was too niuch for his addled head, he staggered toward the clackety-clacking noise of typewriters in MISS SACKTER'S roorn. The din niade his head spin so that his one thought was to escape. One glance through the open door ot 207 could niean only one thingiMISS BARBER was holding another Caesar-session with her Latin class.
