about Chrisg he knew every girl on the East Coast anyway. ltfeanwhile, the publications flourished: one conspicuous by the absence of the editor's name, the other blaring its head's literary achievements across every square inch of space. VVave and his boys gave forth with their second edition of Saint Jlarkis Confidential, a magazine that bared the very soul of our Florida- California Golden Boy, and revealed a future juvenile delinquency expert. Russ starred in the Dramatic Club's suspenseful success, well aided by the skillful scenery produced by Jawge, who finally resigned from the Anybody Who's Anybody Club after Nick the Greek introduced craps there a few years ago. VVe returned after Spring Vacation to find that the Athenian Nicholas had paid us a secret visit and the game of cham- pions was instituted at St. lNIark's. Each night after supper the foreign cries of Little Joe and I'll cover emanated from a shady corner down at coffee, and more than one convert was at least tem- porarily won over from bridge. The snows went, spring came, and one balmy day Kink tried to knock over the flagpole. But this proved a bit more diffi- cult than he thought. In the melee the pole landed a left to the schnozzola and Jim landed in the infirmary. In the case.of Russ versus the Walnut Hill Junior Chorus, the former won a ten- round decision by dint of his stunning solo. Alumni weekend came, and six pairs of hairless legs, the likes of which have never been seen in these parts, rocked and rolled through a stimulating dance rou- tine. Draped in swathes of billowy chiffon, t.he Bacchus sextet fluttered their way into the hearts of everyone. Thomp brought the measles, better known as Six-form-itis, back from Spring vacationg they caught on without any trouble. Perhaps he was trying to elimin- ate competition. Baseball climaxed a fine year by out- lasting Groton for the fifth straight time in a duel down to the wire. From the seed, planted six years before, the plant had grown and borne fruit. The lean years and prunings had given us the strength necessary to pull through the final trials with such success. C C
