PIHIPHHIY As the school year of 1975 draws to an end we see Mr. Means, who is still superintendent of good old P. H. H. S., driving to Mars in the school's drivers' training rocket ship.

' Upon reaching Mars, Mr. Means is greeted by James Carl George, who is vice president of the planet. Mr. Means then goes to the university, where we find Sam Coleman acting as Dean of Women--and how Sammy likes that Job! Sam is glad that Mr. Means dropped by, because he is anxious to hear about the wonderful, brilliant, industrious class of '49, Sam is, of course, eager to hear about how the students in his D.O. class turned out, so Mr. Means begins his story.
