1 9 2 B I S B I L A 19 2 6 Don Bayers leaves the lower hall, as usual, in the company of Elsie. Prue Grobc bequeaths her mellifluous voice to Billy Lesher. We’ve beard him and we know how he needs it. Harold Eberhardt and Tiny Stafford will be delighted to give free tango lessons to Helen Bod well.

Virginia Chevnev donates to the Library and Miss Penrose her files of “Whiz Bang.” Don Mathieson, finding himself to be the sole possessor of a gigantic assortment of almost explosive neckwear, the whole of which he can’t wear simultaneously, donates said collection to the perpetual adornment of the Joan of Arc in the second floor hall. Charlotte Wells and Harriet Zelner jointly bequeath their respective statures to Ted Sutton, with the hope that she may strike a happy medium. Bud Merritt: “I will give anyone five bucks to take this bald head of mine off my hands—of! my neck, I mean. aw. I meant to say take the baldness off my head!” Edie Zimmer leaves her ’witching ways to Elsie Mills, who doesn’t need them at all. Al Todd leaves to his little brother Stanley his Mother's stocking that he hung up last Christmas, and his place on the Honor Boll. That’s pretty nice of him, eh what?
