Here's pie in your eye. and amazed us with their admiration of that banc of meal-time happiness, the microphone; they tactfully avoided mentioning the new proud-flesh color of the Faculty Dining Room walls. (We hadn’t recovered yet from the shock; we couldn’t have answered coherently to criticism or praise.) . . . The Scholarship Fair and the Junior-Senior Prom were coming, with their promises of renewed bankruptcy. Those who were brave enough to remain at college the night of the Prom, with books and no date, felt envious of the non-prom-goers who had fled, and contemplated the wisdom—(and the possibility) —of contemplation in such a hectic atmosphere. . . . The Scholarship Fair, heralded by inexhaust- ible Aldi gags and gimmicks: Mother Goose was on the Loose”, but we lost sight of her in the melee, until the pic-eating contest brought the Simple One back to mind. No gambling! Well, not really, B.P.D.; this is what is known as scientific luck. (Even the Police make al- lowances for the Universal Cause.) . . . The end ‘Oh, go ahead—jump! It's not far!

Proportional representation. Mysterious busses came and went again, with the same heavy-skirted crew. Bach seems to have instigated this migration, judging from the shouts of “MAGNIFICAT” that preceded it. Our arch-rival, Bennington, appeared in the per- sons of two very couth and intelligent girls who spoke of Bennington’s “geographical drawbacks” —(and it takes us half a month’s allowance just to get to Stowe!)—but their “wild surroundings” didn't seem to have affected their erudition a whit. We're practically twins! . . . “Three Sisters —Joxer Daly, disguised as a Russian, with another deathless expression: “chikchik, chik- chik!” Busses, black skirts, shouts of “For God, for country, and for etc.” MacCracken did its stint toward money-raising for the Universal Cause: jewelry sale. We dis- covered our discarded bijoux looking suddenly magnificent on our friends. Well, we can always borrow . . . Remnants of the olden golden-days: two spruce equestriennes, chests ablaze with green ribands, leaving Wcstlands at sunrise to ride in the St. Patrick’s day parade . . . Spring vacation at last! We left while the metaphorical lion was still roaring and returned to find balmy breezes blowing. Some of us looked more anaemic than ever, and made frantic visits to MacCracken’s roof; but while the ex-Bermudans retained their bronze magnificence, we only got cold, or red. But, tanned limbs or no, the men- tal rigours continued: just see the drawn faces of those seven who must put all their Thoughts and Imaginings about the “Divine Comedy” into the cruel confines of a test—(a form of self- examination that has become distressingly preva- lent this year. Is progressiveness regressing here?) ... St. Joan was becoming more and more impassioned, striding up and down Nancy 1 lamburger’s France; you could hear her shout- ing, I am AFRAID to die”, almost every afternoon at four . . . Bronxville was becoming curiouscr and curiouser about the recurrent ap- pearance of the Diaper Service truck at Perkins; the Bendixes were rather startled, too, having tiny dresses to contend with in lieu of the usual blue jeans. The answer: Mitzi is getting her degree. (Mrs. McIntosh was right: she answered her own question with “Yes!” . . .

(No one can ever hope to equal the thrilling one-minute Brettel rides to the station.) . . . Fritz was putting the flowers out, each in its own square inch. Mow can we he vague surrounded by such precision? ... As the weather got hotter, and MacCrackcn roof filled up, a few pioneers unbarred windows, wedged open trap doors, and found tarry de- tours to that ineffable star. Its a rare face that isn’t fiery. (We don’t use the name of the color per se, anymore—). And then, the last worksheet struggled over— (and taken to Miss Bidwcll for the last time; what will we do without her?)—; the last at- tempt made to win Ben's friendship—(who is now and ever shall be a one-man dog; let us face the fact.)—we find the vacation par excellence ujx)n us. (Except for the poor Seniors. Ha! They have quite another kind of vacation. All the time in the world, and they want the world.) Good-bv, Johnny, Peter, Mrs. G., and Mr. Whitehouse.
