THE TOWER LIGHT 6 . . . on the vista from room 202. Have you noticed it? . . . Miss Bersch's amazing croquet ability. . . . on the free time given us through the absence of assemblies. Let's put it to good advantage. . . . on the Senior Specials that have adjusted themselves to Normal life. . . . on the Freshman boy that so deftly plays the popular tunes- after lunch in room 223. . . . on those particularly mellow tones which issue forth from a basso Senior Special. . . . on the undreamed of comfort and convenience afforded the girls-on gym day, by such an apparently insignificant item as a pair of socks. WX . . . on the Safety Pylons on York Road. . . . on people Who persist in Walking on the Wrong side of the road. . . . on the endless striking of the tower clock at noon. . . . ON THE STUDENTS WHO HAVEN'T PAID THEIR ACTIVITIES FEES! 23

THE TOWER LIGHT Revelations Ig 34-35 HERE was a time Qwhen we were freshmenj that we envied the editor of this column. But nevertheless we offer to you this month's Endings with the hope that the extra-curricular activities of the student body will be a little more obvious and a great deal less serious from this time on. , We can't help but wonder if a Mr. Kulacki would be flattered to know that it has taken three men to 1-ill his placeg namely, Frank Zeichner-orchestra, Myron Mezick--soccer, and Melvin Cole in the dormitories. We wonder. - Who can deny that Fost has not been faithful to the Eastern Shore? Surely, Edward is an honorable man. Do they live near each other, Ed? We wonder, too, if the dormitory advocates of the fourth year for the I. A. are growing or diminishing in nurnber? It has been brought to our attention that one girl, a freshman, lost Hve hats last year. We might suggest that that is much healthier than losing your head but once. If you would put to test the proverb, Absence makes the heart grow fonder keep an eye on Schwanebeck and Johnson, and if you be disillusioned, turn your attention to Benbow. And we offer as a model of clandestine love, R. and M. Who would have guessed it? Cheer up, Malcolm! We overheard a freshman exclaim of a boy who grew up in three years. We wanted to console Harper with this but the case seems too hopeless. Looks as though Ed Turner is out to put the Big-Brother System on its feet again. Those in charge of next year's registration might do well to observe his technique. We would be grateful if Wheeler would make up his mind. Or has he lost it? There are a few who cannot understand why Charlie Meigs omitted the Richmond Hall Parlor on the Map of Play Day. Or wouldn't he know? The fact that a salamander took leave of the science room might prove some mighty interesting things about . . . salamanders, of course. Assuming that there is a Baltimore Safety Council and assuming that it is competent-how, then, did it overlook Mr. Minnegan's car? What will the twelfth of October bring to Ed Brumbaugh--or better yet, whom will Ed bring the twelfth of October? 24
