Vacoulis Charles Hern took charge of the 4th period Problems class on Monday, April 18, and a good time was had by all. First, we laughed at his attempts, then the windows were opened and we froze. Then the period progressed with Prof. Hern firing questions at us. Mr. Francis Crowley did the answering. Patronize Semaphore Avertisers Although Prof. Hern did not keep the class very quiet, he did| keep them in good humor. Crowley says the food must be bad since appendicitis has become popular and Mr. Maffeo wants to know if there is going to be a hunger strike. Page Fifteen
