CIENTISTS studied, experimented, and did research work during the dark years of the war attempting to find something more powerful than the weapons used by the enemy. The result was destruction instead of con- struction. They compounded poisonous gases so deadly that our enemies dared not use theirs. They manufactured guns which were larger and more powerful than any the world had ever seen before. They built huge airplanes to carry gigantic loads of destructive bombs to enemy cities. But perhaps the most marvelous invention of this war was the atom bomb. It is the most costly invention that the minds of men ever contrived to make. Only five grams of the wonder substance, plutonium, was used in each of the one hundred pound bombs which were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Only five grams of a substance blew a city to smithe- reens. This goes to prove that everything has within it more energy than is being utilized. The question now is this: Can the atom bomb, which won the war, preserve the peace? Time alone will solve this problem, but if scientists had spent their time producing devices and compounds for construction, instead of de- struction, the world would have a healthier future. Harland Harnden '47, POST WAR MEDICINE N the world of today medical science is play- ing an increasingly important role. Nations now realize that a healthy and happy people are vital to world peace. Millions of dollars are being spent, and thou- sands of scientists are devoting their entire lives to waging this war against disease and death. Marvelous new drugs, antitoxins and vaccines are now preventing and effecting cures for diseases that a few years ago were classed as fatal. The antibiotics, products of one germ that when injected into the human bloodstream rid the body of the other death-dealing germs, are powerful weapons against many microbic diseases. Of the antibiotics now known, penicil- lin, streptomycin, tyrothricin and gramicidin are the most effective agents in the prevention and cure of diseases, and show the most promise of future conquests. Penicillin, used extensively during World War II, has proven its worth again and again in fighting infections. Streptomycin reacts favorably in the treatment of tularemia, meningitis, pneumonia and speci- fic types of bloodstream'infections. This drug will check tuberculosis although it will not effect a complete cure. A new antibiotic, erythrin, may prove to be the nemesis of diphtheria. It is now, however, only under clinical trial. The antibiotics are only one group of miracu- lous drugs that research is discovering and per- fecting. Many other drugs, some even more wonderful, are hidden away in Nature's obscure hiding places waiting to be found and put to life-saving use. Remarkable progress in medical science has been made during recent years, but the fight is just beginning. When the work is finished, man will be released from every known micro- bic disease. Rosalthe Lothrop '47. POST WAR EDUCATION HE. standards of education in our public schools must not be lowered. Over- crowded classrooms, a shortage of textbooks, an increasingly small number of competent teachers, lack of proper recreational facilities, and a serious juvenile delinquency crisis are impor- tant factors in the challenging problem before American educators today. What can be done to insure future Americans of an adequate education? How can we raise the present standards that in some cases have fallen be- low the minimum requirements? These prob- lems must be solved. During the last war the birth rate reached a new high. As a result, schools will be greatly overcrowded in a few years. Even now the re- turning veteran is having difficulty in continu- ing his education because of inadequate facilities. Without the proper training and education, America will be gradually decreasing in strength. This must not happen. The lack of teachers is a serious problem which is difficult to solve as long as business oHers salaries so much higher than those of the! ..'-' 5' S 6 THE EAGLE average school teacher. As yet there is no answer to this problem although some sections are recognizing the necessity of raising teachers' pay. Some schools are experimenting with human relations in the classroom. Changes in the placement of subject matter, in the content and emphasis of courses, in the stressing of social studies in the elementary schools and on through the high school are being made. More and more school systems are recognizing the need for competent and well-trained teachers, and are realizing that an increased salary must be paid in order to attract good teachers. Schools must teach the equality of human beings and the fact that there is equal opportu- nity for all, if students are to grow up with a love for humanity. Now more than ever, we must promote world understanding. When the running of world affairs is passed down to us, we want to be able to take up the work with courage and wisdom.

During our Iunior year we staged a class play called The Daffy Dills which was a great success. This past year we have been working hard to raise money for a Class Trip, by sponsoring dances, selling greeting cards, making Christ- mas wrcathes, having food sales, and selling popcorn. We have participated in many extra-curricula activities and presented a one act play in Decem- ber. We also gave a three act comedy Gertieis Uncle 'i this spring. A member of our class has ably edited the school newspaper this year, and this semester we have been very busy preparing the EAGLE for press. Our class was the lirst to meet its quota in the Magazine Drive, there- by receiving a cash prize. The class otiicers are: President Harold Beisaw V. President Eileen Pierce Sec. and Treas. Vivian Bryant Student Council Representatives Iacqueline Dyke Eileen Pierce Harold Beisaw Adams, Vera Gould, Chester Allen, Alice Gould, Margaret Beisaw, Harold Harnden, Harland The Iunior Class is well represented in the Chorus, the Glee Club, the Band, the Orchestra, and the various athletic groups. We took an active part in the magazine drive, Ruth Watson being our campaign manager. We have been endeavoring to raise money this year to enable us to go on a class trip dur- ing our Senior year. A very successful Harvest Dance, sponsored in October, netted us 2572.46 In Ianuary we put on a supper in the Congre- gational vestry and made a profit of 154100. We have sold hot dogs and cold drinks at most of the home basketball games. We have also sold personal stationary. Nine members of our class took part in the Iunior one-act play Elmer H which was a real credit to our class. The cast of the one-act play The Best There ls for the state contest consisted mostly of juniors. - Mrs. Keay is coaching a three-act play Ask Me Another 'i to be presented the last of May. A second public supper was put on March 29 at the Congregational vestry.

I spent several hours in preparation and in trying to acquire a look of worldly sophistication. My escort and I had just arrived at the gym, when the first of the eveningls mishaps occurred. I stepped out of the car in great style-right into a mud puddle. But not even Wet feet were enough to dampen my spirit. I still was as eager as ever. We had all our dances exchanged, but by some means we managed to sit one out. My feet were feeling very uncomfortable, and I decided to relieve them by sneaking my feet out of my shoes. It wasn't long before someone on the Hoof kicked one of the shoes out a little distance. I hastily retrieved it with my foot, but not before everyone nearby had noticed my embarrassment. When the only extra of the evening was an- nounced, I was already dancing the second one. This naturally left the couple with whom we had exchanged the first extra searching the hall for us. After this last incident I determined to spend the rest of the evening without any more blunders. Everything went all right until I got in front of my house. Then I forgot to lift up my long skirt, and I fell up the stairs. Even though my dance was crowded with inopportune happenings, I had a wonderful time. But I did learn one thing- the sophisti- cated line is not for me. ' Claire Columbus '48, A DAY AT THE FAIR F-a-i-r. At nine years of age what magic that one four letter word held for me. The word needed only to cross my mind and in a single moment I was able to visualize a Vast and wonderful fairyland. There were two ways in which I prepared for the fair. First, for about nine weeks before the fair I saved every cent of my allowance, and secondly, I attended diligently to my health in order to obtain a coverted seven point pin, with which I was able to get into the fair free. Finally, the great day arrived. At the Hrst sign of dawn I jumped out of bed and began to dress hurriedly. By the time I was dressed the whole household was awakened and breakfast was started. It hardly mattered about breakfast though since I was never able to swallow a bite. At last, after what seemed an eternity, we were ready to start. We arrived at the fair- grounds at about nine o'clock. The family went up to buy their tickets while I hung behind just looking around. Tickets purchased, we walked in and then one of the proudest mo- ments in my life came when the man at the gate said, Ticket please , and I just looked wise and pulled the seven point pin out of my pocket. Once inside the gates I dashed ahead of my parents and paid no attention to shouts of, Stay back! Don't get lost in the crowd! Wait for us. There was no holding me back. Things were as I had remembered them. The huge crowd of people with myriads of gaily colored balloons dancing above their heads with occasionally one escaping and going up, up into the clouds, the merry-go-round, the ferris wheel, the pea- nut vendors, and the popcorn machine. Every- thing was wonderful. And so went the day. Rosalthe Lothrop '47. A NIGHT WITH THE' MOSQUITOES It is quiet and peaceful at camp as we lie in our beds listening to the croaking of the frogs and the hooting of the owls. Soon each is asleep and dreaming. All of a sudden comes the buzz of the pesky mosquitoes. At Hrst we try to ignore them. This must have angered them for their T- formation strikes. Someone will be sure to get up, for soon the terrible, big, red bumps arise. Then the battle is on! We all grab swatters, a spray gun, and the sticky Hy paper and chase those pesky things from one place to another. Meanwhile they bite, but between our scratch- ing and chasing we manage to kill a few. All quiet! At last we can settle down. So back into our beds we climb and utter a weary, but thankful prayer. As we pull up the covers the sun peeps through and itis morning, but we can still sleep. THE Then out of the sky we hear the buzz, but will we give up our summer home to them? No, sirg we'll fight to the finish, and perhaps, only perhaps, though, they'll leave us alone. Iacqueline Dyke '47. MY FIRST DAY AT WILTON ACADEMY My knees were knocking, my face was white and drawn-looking, and my heart was pound- ing like a wood-pecker. This is the condition anyone would have found me in on one of the big moments of my life, my first day in the so-called, grown up world, in other words, in high school. I had been told, They treat you pretty rough up there. You'd better not be saucy if you know what's good for you.', Is it any wonder my body was such a physical wreck? Putting aside all these problems, I realized that I had to go through with it, whether or not I wanted to. When I entered school, I found that I was not the only one who felt this way. After exchanging a few words here and there with some friends, I ventured up to the Main Room. At least I was told that it was the Main Room, but after looking around, I came to the conclusion that they all looked like the Main Room. After sitting for what seemed hours, the bell rang, and still nothing happened. There was only complete silence, which was getting on my nerves, and then all at once I heard instructions to do this and to do that. liverything then seemed clear, and with my nerves quieted I felt fairly confident of myself. All of this confidence was quickly lost, however, when I started for my first class which happened to he Latin. I got as far as the gym all right, but from then on it was just guess work. I can now say that my guess work was not very good. To tell the truth I made only one class out of four on time and in the right room, that day. It hardly seems possible that all of that is now regular routine, but it's true. I just hope I never have to live through such a long con- fusing day again as long as I live. Peggy Watson '50. A G I- li 19 CAUGHT AT LAST Crack! Crack! What was that noise? lump- ing up from my chair, I discovered the cause. It was hard to believe, but it was true. I had sat on one of my grandmother's favorite rec- ords. I had been playing the phonograph and evidently by mistake had placed the record in the chair. What would I do? There were two alternatives: one, that I go to my grandmother and confess what seemed like a catastrophe in my childish mind, the other, that I try in some way to conceal the broken record. Upon pon- dering these two ways over in my mind, I selected the latter. Why, I do not know, for I knew that I wouldn't be punished for some- thing which I hadn't intended to do. The question that now bothered me was how I would hide the record. I considered the various nooks and corners in which the record would less likely be found and finally decided that the attic was the ideal place. After looking around in the attic for a suitable place, I hid the record in a carefully concealed box. Time elapsed, but the broken record still harassed my mind. Coming home from school one day, I discovered my mother cleaning the attic. The thought flashed through my mind as to what to do next with the record. There was no time to hesitate. When my mother wasn't looking, I quickly recovered the record and ran to my room. There I decided to con- ceal the record under the cushion in the chair. Once more the broken article was concealed. Several weeks later found me home from school with a cold. The deed of the broken record episode had temporarily left my mind, until my mother showed me the record. It was time for spring cleaning and Mother had found the record while cleaning my room. With tears in my eyes, I confessed the mystery of' the broken record. It was then that I fully decided that it was better to confess ones sins at the time and not try to conceal them, for they are bound to come out sooner or later. Avis Grant '48. SAVED BY THE BELL ' The bell rang andthe two fighters sprang from their corners. This was the fifteenth and final round of the battle for the world champion- ship. The challenger, Scotty McFarland, had 20 THE EAGLE fought so well earlier in the bout that he was far ahead of the defending champ, Mugsy Cal- lahan, as far as points went. All he had to do to win was to get safely through this round, but he was tiring, and Mugsy was coming after him, intent upon a knockout. Scotty moved cautiously towards the charg- ing Callahan. He ducked a couple of lefts and tried to keep as much out of Callahan's way as was possible. Suddenly Mugsy had Scotty trapped in a corner. He sent out a barrage of blows, most of which caught Scotty. Finally, a terrific right uppercut caught Scotty and down he went. The referee began counting as Mc- Farland lay on the canvass. Thoughts were racing through Scotty's dazed head faster than Callahanis blows had landed a few seconds before. He thought of his start in the fight game years ago. He re- membered all the small town fights as he slugged his way to the top. Now here was his big chance, and here he was listening to the referee count out his doom. He must get up! lf he could last only a few more seconds, the fight was his. He must get off that canvass! But could he? Yes, he must! As he heard the referee count nine, he made a tremendous effort and managed to pull himself to a standing position. McFarland was up! He was on his feet with only seconds remaining. Perhaps he could last. 'The crowd's cheering didn't keep him up for long. Callahan quickly set him back down again with a terrific haymaker. This time Scotty was out cold and everyone knew, that save for a miracle, it was all over for him. The referee began counting: l - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 Scotty hadn't stirred - 6 - 7 - It looked as if it was all over - 8 - 9 - Bong! The bell! The miracle! Scotty was saved by the bell! As the crowd went completely wild, the referee walked over to the very dazed Scotty McFarland and de- clared him the new champ of the world. Roger Welch '48. SAVED BY THE BELL We were industriously taking up our English homework one day in English class during the first semester of this year. Suddenly- the first bell having rung-I got up and left the room. Claire managed to interpret my in- articulate motions and followed me with a be- wildered expression on her face. We walked rapidly, but began to slow down because everything was so quiet and none of the doors were open. When we came to the ofiice girl's desk we asked her if she wasn't almost ready to ring the second bell. She informed us that the first bell hadn't been rung yet. Then we really began to feel slightly foolish. The very thought of walking back into class was appalling! Why, they would have a hilar- ious time 'i at our expense. We had progressed a few steps by this time and were slowly descending the front hall stairs. We knew we shouldnit be loitering in the hallways and we were really in a ticklish situ- ation . Claire was trying to shrink herself into a mere shadow and hide behind the door. Of course, there may be nothing humorous about this incident to the reader but when Claire and I are together the least little thing seems so funny! We had just started to burst into one of our spasms of laughter when the bell rang. That was one time we were definitely saved by the bell. Leatrice Oakes '48. IT NEVER RAINS BUT IT POURS I found myself in the barber shop with one fellow in the chair, one fellow just leaving, and the barber working as this story begins. The barber had just said that it never rains but it pours. I kept turning this over in my mind and finally I reached the conclusion that the saying was almost always right. As I have worked in both a store and a filling station, I began to apply that saying to my own experience. In the store on Saturday, especially, there is not too much business until 9:30 A.M., but at this time the customers really roll in' and the store is full for the rest of the day. I have found this true in the filling station also. Business is rather slow for the first two or three hours in the morning and then all at once out of a clear sky, cars will be all around the gas pumps. About five minutes after this crowd of cars is cleared away, you are right out straight again. One person wants her car filled with gas, another wants the tires checked and his windshield cleaned, another, an oil change and the transmission checked! And then there is THE EAGLE 21 always someone inside who's down to exchange gossip. By the time it was my turn in the chair, I'd really convinced myself that the barber was right. It never rains, but it pours. Chester Gould '47, INTERFERENCE The house was so still that one could even hear the faint hum of the electric clock on the kitchen wall. Mother had just turned off the radio which had been on since six o'clock,- the time now being a quarter to nine. The sudden stillness sent a tingling through my body as I tried to concentrate on my Chemistry homework. Now, to some people, the dripping of a water faucet is nerve-wracking. To me, it is soothing music compared to a cat's washing himself,- cspecially if you can't see said cat. Slurp, slurp, slurp is much worse than drip, drip, drip. liarly that morning the cat had ascended the clark cellar stairs looking as if he had just been in a minstrel show. Not even an alley cat could have gotten as dirty in one year as our once yellow and white one did that night. You'd think that with all the nice places in the cellar that he would have picked some place other than the coal-bin. Well, anyway-all through the rest of that day Qand probably into the next week for all I knowj the cat washed himself. His sleek mother tried her best to clean him, but finally disgustedly walked away, disowning him. With the gigantic task to do by himself, he lapped and chewed to remove the dirt. Even now he is still at it-Slurp, slurp, slurp. I think I shall go crazy if he does not stop soon. Slurp, slurp, slurp-why do cats have to get in coal-bins? Slurp, slurp, slurp-- how am I going to concentrate on Chemistry? Eileen Pierce '47. DAYDREAMING Hey! Ioe, I guess I'll ride on the subway to the other side of the city. Naw, let's walk down Fifth Avenue and up llroadway, or maybe stroll around Times Square. Harland, go bring in some woodg my fire's most out. Yeah, l'll do it in a minute. Gosh, Ioe, ain't the Washington Monument tall? Let's go up in the top to- look down. Naw, let's go down to the Capitol and poke fun at politicians. Yeah, that would be good. Harland, I told you to get some wood. Yes'm. Let's go over to the Golden Gate Bridge, Joe. Naw, I'd rather go down to Chinatown to see the Chinesef' All right, then we'll go to Hollywood to see the movie actresses. Harland, are you going to get me some wood? Yup? I-Icy, Ioe, come up here'n' help me cut the top off this here red cedar tree. Sure, I'll be -in Come, come, Harland, and get me some wood. I find myself yanked out of my chair in a very impolite manner and shoved toward the door--my father had arrived on the scene. Well, I can day dream some other day. Harland Harnden '47. MY SCHOOL EXPERIENCES It was many years ago when I went to school, but I will always remember those good old days. At that time we didn't go to school from Decem- ber until the mud was dried up in the spring so we often went late in the summer to make up for lost time. I recall one incident vividly. It took place one sunny afternoon in late Iune. We were having a hard test, and all I could think about was the old swimming hole which was to be foundabout a quarter of a mile or so up Lost Creek . The next day the ranks were to be sent out so I knew I must do well in that test or I wouldn't pass for the year. Still I don't think I could have kept my mind off swimming even if we had had a movie which people hadn't even heard of in those days and weren't going to hear about then for a good many years yet. Time ran out and I hadn't finished the test, so naturally I flunked it. The next day when the ranks came out, I looked at the small yellow slip, and the ranks I saw were even lower than I had expected. If I remember correctly they were: Reading, C3 Writing, D, Arithmetic, Eg Spelling, D. What could I do? If I showed those ranks to Mom and Dad, I would be so sore I wouldn't cs in 22 THE EAGLE be able to sit down for a week or more. I thought it over carefully. Then the idea that I might be able to forge their signature on the slip came to meg but no, theyid wonder when I was going to get my ranks and sooner or later they would go to the teacher and get them, and I couldnit lose it kind of accidentally on purpose because the teacher would make out another. It was then that I decided to run away for a few days and pretend I was kidnapped. My plan went into effect that night. I simply slept in a secluded spot in our own barn and when I got hungry I just sneaked into the pantry and hooked a couple of sandwiches or a few cookies. I decided to wait a few days before I sent the ransom note so they would really take action fast when they received it. It was on the third night that I slipped under the door the note which read, If you are in- terested in your son, you must writefa note promising you will always treat him well and never spank him or punish him in any other way. Leave the note at the foot of the big oak tree a short distance north of your house. I found the note there the next morning and I made a large circle around the house and trudged up the driveway. You can be sure it was an unpleasant sur- prise when I noticed Mom standing in the door- way with a yardstick. She had guessed the whole thing was phony. Keene Swett ,50. BELIEVE IT OR NOT The story which I am about to tell you is, as you will see, almost unbelievable. About two years ago in the fall of the year, our cat gave birth to three kittens. These kit- tens were kept in a box in the woodshed which was nearly filled with wood. At night the mother was left there with her kittens, and it was during such a night that my unforgettable experience occurred. Everyone in our house wassleeping soundly when suddenly each was awakened by a loud, crashing noise. We were all so startled that it was a few minutes before we realized what had happened. W'hen we did, our first thought was of the cat and her kittens. Upon entering the shed we found almost two cords of wood scattered here and there, but we saw no sign of the pets. Really worried now, we began throwing the wood away from where it had fallen. After what seemed like hours we reached bottom. There was the box with the mother half stand- ing, half lying down, using herself as a shield for her kittens, who had apparently suffered no ill effects from this near-disaster. This, to me, is an outstanding example of animal courage. The mother cat protected her young although it meant great danger for her. Ruth Watson '48. THE HARD WAY One cold, wintry Saturday night I was head- ing toward Farmington in somewhat of a hurry, when B AN G! I had a flat. After getting the car under control, I got out to look at the sad sight. As soon as I started to change the tire, every- thing seemed to go wrong. First, the jack wouldn't work. Then when I did get the car raised, the thing came down. This jar loosened the trunk cover which fell on my head. When I finally recovered from this blow I looked at my spare and found it was Hat, too. This was the payoff. I left everything and hitched a ride home. Moral: Don't try to hurry. It doesn't pay. Harold Beisaw '47. COASTING Up in the morning we eagerly rise And down o'er the hill we go, The sled speeds along at a rapid pace On the white and crusted snow. The dog likes to run and join in the fun, He barks with rougish glee, Then back we climb to the top again And slide past the old elm tree. Edith Masterman '49. A BLANKET OF WHITE Early one morning I woke up in a daze, The sun was blotted out By a thick gray haze. The ground was covered With a blanket of white, That quietly fell Sometime in the night. THE EAGLE 23 The snow was still falling So Huffy and light, Not a track could I see In that blanket of white. But soon it was broken By a passing team. To have it stay Was only a dream. Alice Wyman '50. WHEN I WAS ONLY TWO When I was only two years old, And creeping here and there, My folks all said that I was cute, Though I didn't have much hair. I was into almost everything And even on the shelf, One day I found some matches And almost burned myself. lust the other day, it seems Mother made some marmalade. She put it on the cupboard tray, For me I knew 'twas laid. When my mother found me, fStill sitting way up therej Was I a sticky looking sight, 'Twas even in my hair. The time soon came when I was live And I could go to school, I played hookey every day And it wasn't. April fool!! My sister used to sit in school Right in back of me. I'd turn around and pull her braids And take her handkerchieves. She'd up and cry and screech, and then, The teacher'd look at us, I'd sink down in my seat, While Sis just sat and fussed. Those were sure the good old days! We've all grown up and gone, But we'll be back, my Sis and I To the house where we were born. Philip Trask '50. MY FIRST ATTEMPT I laced my new white skates up tight, As I'd been told to do, Then I stood up to start my flight, To me this all was new. One foot went front, the other back, It was an awful mess, I tryed to catch myself, alackl lust couldn't skate, I guess. One pair of skates as good as new Now hang upon a nail, I look at them and know so true, At skating I did fail. Ioyce Rand '50. DON'T FOOL IN SCHOOL Don't fool in school, it's not very wise, Your ranks drop down, your worries rise. The teachers glare with distrust and shame, For such a pupil, they hope they're not to blame. Your friends don't regard you with any esteem, They wonder, if perhaps, you're as good as you seem. Your parents worry and stew and fret, Boy, if you're like this, then you're all wet! Warren Rollins '48. AN IDEAL DAY I got up in the morning As the sun began to shine, And I started out a fishing With a sturdy hook and line. I heard the cheerful robin In the tree tops gaily sing, And not a thing was sobbin' At the coming of the spring. As I walked across the meadows On that cheerful April morn I could see the many shadows Moving o'er the fields and on. As I reached the gurgling brook, I thrust in my baited line, And the Fish caught on my hook Was a trout so big and Hne. Frederick Hardy I48. 24 THE EAGLE WHEN NOT TO LAUGH Laughter, in any kind of manner, Giggles, smirks and grins, - According to the teacher Should end when class begins. Cease laughing at the masters, Be studious and behave. Donlt laugh at them, they can't laugh back, They've long been in their graves. When lohnny hits a student, With a spitball aimed at you, Don't laugh if it is funny. That's the worst thing you can do. Now if you follow my advice, And only smile when told, Your rank may soar from F to A, But man, do you get old! Durward Durrell, Ir., '48. THE DENTIST 1 trudged up the stairs with a heavy heart, Intent on sticking it out, Think I to myself, I must, I mustf' And I finally reach the top. I pause there a moment to get my nerve, And walk through the door with a smile, The dentist is waiting for me alone My, what a handsome prohle. But looks don't count when you're in pain, So I greet him and sit in his chair. I-Ie pushes a button and up I go The dreadful drill to meet. I-Ie sticks his finger in my mouth, And then the fun begins, The drill comes down with a mighty roar Don't movef, he says, this won,t hurt. That man is a liar, I declare, I'll never come here again. I howl with pain and he grins at me, Oh, that wonderful smile-Ouchl He takes it away and I think he's through, I unclench my tightly clasped hands, But he comes right back for another attack The battle has just begun. After endless minutes of agony, I-Ie smiles and says, HO. K., I guess that Hnishes you for now. And it nearly did finish me, tool Margaret Gould '47. Drink, wise fools! Too weak to face your earthly trials, Too weak to overcome desire, You 'll rue the day of judgment, You ,ll read the jagged scroll Despairing your lot-your bad mistake VVhen you from cool red wine partake. Drink again, poor fools! Eileen Pierce '47. My assignment one day was to write a po 'm So I got to thinking and scratching my dome The subjects I thought of didnit seem to be The right ones to use in poetry. I could write about spring, summer or fall, But these donit hold my interest at all. Thinking so hard makes everything hazy And not because I feel tired or lazy. But something inside of me seems to disclose That I can't write poetry, stories, or prose. Iohn Fliss '47, THINGS I LIKE BEST I love warm skies And cool running water, The noise of magpics The grace of an otter, The sweet-smelling growths, The red squirrel's chatter, His eloquent oaths On some local matter, The patter of rain As it lands in the street, Fields full of grain For a nation to eat, Heavenly splendor in northern lights Warmth of spring days And the cool, clear nights. I live in peace And Find pleasant rest, For delights never cease In the things I like best. Philip Edwards '47. THE I w nA C, I. E 25 School Activities Back row, left to right: P. Raymond, W.

This year the paper was not included in the Student Activity ticket. However, a large number of subscriptions were received early in the year and many single issues are sold each week. Several special issues with colored ink and colored paper appropriate for the season have been published. There have been quite a few 6 page issues and some 8 page issues. The Iunior and Sophomore Classes successfully edited the Eaglet and the Freshmen will pub- lish their own copy soon after this goes to press. Iackie Dyke's willing and enthusiastic work as Editor-in-Chief, assisted by a cooperative stall, has made this year a successful one. Our sincere thanks to Mrs. Hellen for her help in typing and mimeographing, and to Miss Bailey for the time spent in arranging and correcting the material.
