Arithmetic is where the answer is right and every- thing is nice and you can look out of the window and see the blue sky - or the answer is wrong and you have to start all over and try again and see how it comes out this time . . . If you ask your mother for one fried egg for break- fast and she gives you two fried eggs and you eat both of them, who is better in arithmetic, you or your mother? FLORENCE HANCOCK ROGER LEVASSEUR Carl Sandburg

ARTHUR GIOVANNANGELI THOMAS GORDON RONALD DUNHAM COSMIC GALL Neutrinos they are very small. They have no charge and have no mass And do not interact at all. The earth is just a silly ball To them, through which they simply pass, Like dustmaids down a drafty hall Or photons through a sheet of glass. They snub the most exquisite gas, Ignore the most substantial wall, Cold-shoulder steel and sounding brass, Insult the stallion in his stall, And, scoring barriers of class, Infiltrate you and me! Like tall And painless guillotines, they fall Down through our heads into the grass. At night, they enter at Nepal And pierce the lover and his lass From underneath the bed - you call It wonderful: I call it crass. John Updike 10

PAUL DAVIDSON Jknjclm JOSEPH HYLAND HAROLD CHASE Man will never write, they said before the alphabet came and man at last began to write. Man will never fly, they said before the planes and blimps zoomed and purred in arcs winding their circles around the globe. Man will never make the United States of Europe nor later yet the United States of the World, No, you are going too far when you talk about one world flag for the great Family of Nations, they say that now. Carl Sandburg 12 RAYMOND RICHARD
