BLUE AND WHITE GRADE NINE FANTASIA bo! In a dream I looked ahead And 9A ' s future clearly read. Now Robert Bell, a lawyer wise, While Nancy tall and fair, Of bacteria and harmful grubs. She sure had learned her share. Now Mary, I’at and Helen. Fine nurses had become. And tended Dr. Bettridge WhoVI swallowed chewing gum. Bernice, a journalist of note. Astounded one and all. While David lectured chemistry In a palatial hall. Red-haired Joanne and Barbara small. Were actresses, at last, ah me! No wonder John dashed thro’ the air These beauties, just to see. Aha! Jack. Glen and Brady At college—flirting with his lady. Thelma, bee, Frances, 1’at. Were happy housewives, fair and fat. George, Nelson, and Byng boys, twain. Climbed mountains high, a-seeking fame: I glimpsed Albina with a rolling pin. And nearby, Bob Bullen with a mocking grin! Jean Bell made music for all dancing feet. While Bev. sang songs, that were hard to beat. Doreen and Sally, so charming and sweet. Had wooers many kneeling at their feet. Gloria and Sally, in cap and gown. Listened while Raymond, a doctor pro¬ found, Dispensed theories, that Burge on the air, Broadcast loudly, to all who care. Blackburn and Bond in a sign of gold • Told of a food shop, the best in the world. Last but not least, 1 saw Bunion. A radio expert! Wont he have fun? Suddenly the vision went. By a 9A teacher, away it was sent; “Dreaming, Eh? Well—You’ve lost your percent.” DREAMER 9A. BLUE MONDAY WITH 9B Mary Cameron Twas Monday morning, and all through the school The children were taking their seats, or their stools Shirley was putting her Math in array. Buzz sputtered a spray as she cackled awav. The second bell rang and we rushed to our seats. Then in sailed “Checkerboard” like the whole fleet. The attendance was checked and all was serene. Then Jerry and Jim messed up the scene. We struggled through Geography, and then in P.T. We frolicked around as gay as could be . Through English we listened |uite care¬ fully. While Miss Auld explained all very clearly. The third bell rang: we rose from our seats, Alas came the order. “Pronouns Com¬ plete !” We strode with caution to Mr. Ball’s room. Who thinks we get answers from the man in the moon. No sign of our teacher? “Shall we re¬ treat?” But—hush! ’Twas he coming; we knew ’twas “de-feet.” Then, as we staggered out of his room. Still echoed these words that were charg¬ ed at each goon. Personality?—Character? — Too slow, sit doon.” Hence to Math we dolefully crept. Where Joyce thro’ open door suddenly swept, Declaring, so bravely, “It’s x+2 more!” “Your signs are all wrong: report here at four.” (Continued on Page (A) Page Sixty-Four

TRUE CONFESSIONS Ollie Camile Fletcher, Archibald Irving: horn in Ti!- Imry East. Asked about 10A he said “pretty fair class”, but realizing he was speaking to a IGA student he corrected himself, “It ' s a very good class and I enjoy teaching it”. We all know Mr. Fletcher left the school to serve his country and of this we’re very proud. He told me he is really glad to he hack as he enjoys teaching in this school. He said his favourite pastime is playing basketball, yet his ambition is to retire. Green, Findlay: born in Elgin County. He said. “Watkerville is the best Col¬ legiate in Windsor and Ontario because il has a good class of students and good teachers. ’ He likes 10A as they have ability and are good workers. He teaches Science and that explains why gardening is his hobby. 11 is dislikes “are many.” He stated that he had already reached his ambition. Forman, Clement Murray: born in Lon¬ don. England. He thinks “10A is noisy” (confiden¬ tially. so do a number of other teachers.) He prides Walkerville as being “tops.” He enjoys teaching Mathematics, al¬ though iie is a “whiz at Geography.” Sports are his favourite pastimes. ' Phis was proven by the great shows the rugby team put on. He states be dislikes “peo¬ ple who talk too much.” Naturally, he was speaking to a 10A student at the moment. He hopes to re-visit France.
