26 THE CRIMSON AND GRAY alone? . . . What! No ice cream? . . . The male members of the Faculty were much in evidence . . . Oh, well, don ' t take it serious, it ' s too mysterious. Just Think Since Willie (33) Hong ' s laundry has moved from Main Street, about fifteen of our more or less popular young men are searching about frantically for an after-school meeting place in which to discuss how the school should be run and why. Nobody ' s Safe Our eminent sports writer, Andrew (32) Tully Jr., (ahem) was recently amused by a recreation usually afforded to people much younger than a P. G.l Freshmen Rah F avreau A.

OCTOBER 1932 25 High School Lowdown by T ' ke Key-Hole Reporter Corridor Rambles: More coats and hats be- ing worn these days . . . wonder how they ' ll get ' em all in the cloak-room next winter? . . . maybe two on a hook . . . Leonard (34) Blair, the first one in room 4 these more or less bright mornings . . . Gerhard (34) Kuehn first in room 5 . . . The Freshmen are getting smaller every year . . . must be the depression we hear about . . . Danny (36) Woodbury, Pres. of the Fresh- men, a little worried about making a speech Oct. 8 . . . Rudy (33) Leduc, Jerry (same) Caplovitch, Bernard (ditto) Fox, and Odilon (33) Lavoie holding a meeting in the corner of room 3 . . . William (34) Sutcliffe, chewing his Ti-con-der-oga . . . understand that Beavers chew wood . . . Marion (35) Munday, talking . . . Lionel (34) Coiteau, reading an article en- titled The Disadvantages of Being Educated very carefully . . . Johnny (34) Starr, try- ing to be a tough member of the traffic squad . . . And Carrie (33) Labelle, without her new haircut because the bovs didn ' t like it! Picture of a Freshman thinking to himself: Well, I ' m pretty big now . . . can go all over the library . . . guess I will tonight . . . and the next . . . people can see I ' m in high school then . . . Wonder if the reception is fun or? . . . there goes the bell . . . what period, I wonder? . . . wonder why we have to go single file? . . . why can ' t we talk? . . . let ' s see, if I take my left here I ' ll be right . . . wonder if that fellow look- ing at me is thinking about a ride . . . last year ' s class lived . . . guess I will. Dead-eye Dick We hear from a very reliable source that John (34) Martin reads cowboy stories and such. Revolution? We also hear from another reliable source that Linky (33) Blakely was initiated by two Freshmen. Secret Societies The Knights of the Triangular Table. Sounds big — is big — and will be big. The new Fraternity of the High School, running com- petition to the Alpha Sigma Nu, (that Greek Sorority with t he Irish colors) and the J. A. C. Raymond (Sporty) Lenti, Rudy (Philip Alarumclock Momaduke) Leduc, and Bernard (Roscoe Francis Ates) Fox are the chief and only members. They have not held a meeting yet because they are minus a triangular table. (If you have such a table, see one of the above mentioned). All of which brings to mind that charmingly exclusive club, the J. A. C. or Just Another Club. The J. A. C. is the only club which will not tell who the President is, what goes on at the meetings, etc. However, Yours Truly discovered the beeg secrets. Don ' t tell anybody, but the President is Kay (34) Thimblin and the meetings con- sist of dancing and gossiping, (stealing my laurels) . They also try to fool people over the ' phone. No, they ' re not taking on any new members just now. Correspondence Course Esther (34) Skinner says she doesn ' t read since she ' s gone to school. Do you know that — Dick (34) Taylor gets away with murder in French class? Joe (34) Proulx doesn ' t know the way to Webster? Mary (34) Dani will answer all questions about the J. A. C? (Neither do I). Horace Greeley ' s famous words Go West, Young Man, Go West , were written by Terre Haute, Editor? High-lights of the Freshman Party: Every- one in his best bib and tucker makes quite a sight . . . More Freshmen than anything . . . And still they were scared . . . Some of the Seniors came to the conclusion that the Fresh- men were cute, (especially the girls) . . .Won- der who that blonde was? . . . Then, strange as it seems, some of the boys didn ' t want a vaca- tion . . . The decorations couldn ' t take it . . . Wonder why the Stompers looked half asleep? . . . Not mentioning any names, but who was the very popular young lady who went home
