Even Dignified Seniors Confess to Having Certain Most Embarrassing Moments In School Careers Embarrassing moments certainly can be embarrassing! If you don’t believe it ask Roy Williams! The other night when he took his best girl. Jackie Poeble, out and they stopped at the Beacon, lie was embarrassed good and proper when he couldn’t pay the bill! When asked what he did, he replied, “Oh. I just bummed it from her!” Helen Gauger was embarrassed when she walked over the register in the main corridor with a swing skirt on! And Ethlo Rossi was embarrassed when he made a P in English! (But it was only once!) Haussler helped to make embarrassing moments for two people. “Swede Luft was plainly mortified when the coach found out he had burst Into the top of a locker; while “Teacher's Pet Kotello blushed when “Frenchy asked if anyone had a comb and Duke blurted out, “It’s none of your business! Rollie Faux exclaims, “The time I had to make a speech in chapel i in regard to football.” (It couldn’t have been the blonde. Eileen Preston, In the student audience, or could It?) Mildred Eden, way back In her freshman year, says that she was more surprised than embarrassed when she asked Miss Falkin which steps went up and which down. Anna Mae Iaiyne didn’t know what to think when Mr. Miller told her to sing thru her teeth! She was embarrassed cause she had a tooth out right in front-and it just slipped out anyway! At a swanky party that Jane Spears attended, she was found dancing with her shoes off. (a cute boy, too!) So she thought it time to put her shoes on—But they wouldn’t go on! And so—we find embarrassing moments very entertaining to read about!
