And from the lar end ol the hall lfrom test tuhes shattered hy their lall The reeking lumes ol sulphurate The halls with stench did permeate. And Davis' genius watched in hitter resignation The shattered parts ol atoms that once had joyed his heart Which swiftly into ether did depart. lyliss Springhorn gathered, with greatest woe and contemplation, The hruised dandelions, with sympathetic looks, lfor they, poor llowers, lay crushed, 'neath Phillips' history hooks And in the midst ol all the clamor, Laura slohnson wails That mangled is her hcau francais, with lylister Divers' nails. Nliss Hoard at once does hitterly complain That her inhnitiyes have all heen split And that the kingly English has hecn slain By the shame and shock ol' it. lXliss Cuylcs imperturhahly amidst a paradigm ls searching for the traces ol a truant synonym. lXliss l lcnderson at last did overtake The calries lrom a missing piece ol' cake. And armed with needle and a little hit ol thread tiaily lylrs. Nofsker was sewing up the dead. lXliss Davis tears her hair and utters loud complaints That splattercd are her precious hooks with thart departments paints. All the harmony in Xlr. Sur has hit discordant notes And all lXliss XYeightman's wit has stooped to twice-told anecdotes lXlr. Pooley's llnglish got mixed with tiladys' speech And now they 'll have to learn xx hat the other used to teach. Ryanf Do tell me sir, what hrought on us this dire calamity That such misfortune has heen xx rought upon our faculty? Edgerton: A but circumstantial statement can I make. Ifor the facts have I neither filtered, fathomed, found fnor fakedl. But at that very moment, did three-thirty loudly ringg The trampling horde from study-hall hath caused this dire thing. lfXlr. Ryan has called a special meeting of the facultyl L'll.9zi1'lc : I have noticed many students much inclined to discontent If they can be the guilty ones, they'll have reason to repent. .llillsf 'Iihese tyrants can we overthrow with an algebraic equation And 'Irump here is a master of geometric subjugation. Franklin: Uh, and how I've longed to stage a gymnast exhibition But how I fear they'll reconsider their permission. lY'eber: And all my protoplasms were blown out the door I only hope that they'll consent to purchase me some more. Buerki: I call this downright insurrection What they need is some direction Clie takes a bow before the cheering houseg Away he goes as quickly as a mousej Waller: Perhaps investigations Gr the outlook of vocations lvlight untangle complications. Burr: It has always been my firm opinion That impoliteness kept the cave man in oblivion. Now what we've gained has all departed And now we're back where we first started. R. johnson .' But we shall be rewarded for the stand we're taking For though weve suffered very much we're history in the making. Knapp: Here is my solemn declaration On this crucial situation. We nnd the students guilty of the charges that were made And demand that all the damages immediately be paid. For how do they expect to obtain an education When with their ceaseless chatter they disturb our explanation. We hnd that their rebelliousness is much to our disliking And pointedly admonish them, 'Do not consider strikingl We think that they presume in making such a fussl Because of their rank negligance they trampled over us. But we realize they need some time for recreation So we set aside this afternoon for rehabilitation. And tomorrow, just in case they might possibly be late, We give them a reminder that we start this school at eight.

The locale was southern California, during the American invasion of the Spanish Territory in the late eighteen-fifties. A new American law required that all ranch owners there should file the boundaries of their lands at the gov- ernment land ofhce at lvlonterey. Otherwise the land would be legally open to claim by anyone who should file for it. A great many Spanish rancho owners were affected: either they were ignorant of the law, or refused to conform to it. At any rate great advantage was taken of them by bands of outlaws who seized their ranches. The Castro-Kenton Rancho at San Juan was such a ranch. Kearny, a United States government official sent to help protect the Spanish land owners, fell in love with Juanita Kenton, the Rose of the Rancho , whose rancho he had also to protect. Kinkaid, with Rigsby and a band of drunken, lawless men, was about to take advantage of the law and seize the ranch. Kearny managed to get a description of the boundaries from Juanita and have them sent to Monterey by Lieutenant Larkin. Then by siding with Kinkaid, to hold him off, he managed to get the claim filed and the rancho saved by the national guard. But all this at the cost of nearly losing Juanita, who distrusted him a little as a gringo and who was about to be betrothed by her mother to a dash- ing young Spaniard from Monterey, Don Luis de la Torre. Padre Antonio, who throughout had helped in calming matters, pronounced the hnal blessing, but Juanita was taken away from her rancho, because her mother said she would be disowned should she ever marry a gringo.

On December ll and 12 the debaters attended the annual Speech Institute held at the University, where they learned more of the fine points of speaking, as well as engaging in debates against Freeport, Platteville, and other schools. Later, as a result of final try-outs, the first teams representing Wisconsin High were composed of the following: affirmative, Elizabeth Park, Andrew Rice, and Mary jane Marks Clriate Salter, alternatelg negative, Suzanne Findlay, Bob Curtin, Tim Harrington, and Marcia Walton. These selected teams participated in further practice debates duringjanuary and February against Portage, XVauna- kee, Miltonjunction, Edgerton, Stoughton, Edgewood, Milton College, Hesperia Literary Society, and others, The first round of conference debates resulted in a victory for the Wisconsin High teams, which accordingly advanced to the second round where they were eliminated by loss of one point. The members enjoy recalling trips made to surrounding towns, both by automobile and train, in preparation for the conference. The Wisconsin High Forensic Contest was held here in the early part of April with the following winners announced: oratory-Andrew Rice: extempor- aneous speaking-Evajollosg extemporaneous reading-Mariam Hansen: humor- ous declamation-Barbara Haake. These winners took part in the League con- test held at Stoughton, where Mariam Hansen and Patricia Salter placed first in their respective sections. Pat Salter placed third in the Sub-District Tourney held at Lake Geneva, while Mariam Hansen, having won hrst place again, con- tinued to the District Conference at Whitewater. Mariam won again at White- water and competed in her second State Tournament held at Madison on lylay 63. Here she won third place among twelve contestants. The fine rating achieved by our Vvliseonsin High speakers refiects favorably upon our Speech Department which has sponsored the events and promoted forensics here at the school. A successful group of one-act plays, about ten in all, were produced here at Wisconsin High during january and February, under the guidance of the Play- shop director, Mr. Fredrick Buerki. Back-stage work was done by the three dramatic clubs: Triaconta, Thalia, and Red Domino, Much credit must be given to the University practice teachers who acted in the capacity of directors for the various plays. This year's productions have further disclosed the value of the one-act plays, which enable more talent to be utilized, as well as aiding in the selection of dramatic possibilities for the school play. With the probability that a new curtain will be provided for the stage, the dramatics department may well feel encouraged to carry on the splendid idea of one-act plays. Something new this year were the music assemblies. Their purpose is to create interest in singing good music. The student body was seated according to the various parts sung. At one assembly two students, Dorothy Terry and Tim Harrington, conducted numbers, at others the choir and both orchestras performed and there were one or two soloists, and at the May fourteenth assembly the University Mens Clee Club, directed by Paul jones, sang for us. But mainly there was singing by the entire school: among the songs were Dvorak's Massa Dear Cfrom the New XVorld Symphonyl, America the Beautiful, Christmas carols, Sweet and Low, Handel's Largo, Levee Song, Santa Lucia, Oh Suzanna, and NVagner's Pilgrims' Chorus Cfrom Tannhauserl. These assemblies were popular and successful. The annual concert, held here April thirtieth, was extraordinarily successful. The performances of various groups are mentioned for the most part under their Writeups. There were, however, several ensembles which must be mentioned here. Margaret Wlitzemann played her original composition, A Dream, with Ruth Wilson at the piano Cshe also played it at a music assemblylg a trio com- posed of Margaret Witzemann, ,lean Kolb, and Ruth Wilson, played Vivaldi's Largo CConcerto in D Minorlg and a string quartet composed of Margaret Witzemann, hlohn Brann, Nlargaret Kinne, and Andrew Rice played Drink To Me Only Wilh Thine Eyes Qarranged by Pochonl. i, J SENIOR ORCHESTRA lN4r.

It was described by some of the alumni as being the best prom since they were juniors. And it really was a great success. lt was led by our gallant king, Darwin Waters, and his queen, Mary Belle Wilkie, who looked very lovely in a Howing white dress with a corsage of pink rose-buds and a coronet of matching flowers in her hair. The music was furnished by Bill Bunt's popular orchestra in which Stanley Thompson played a part. N38 in huge sparkling characters, surrounded by silver stars, was mounted on a black drape behind the orchestra. White strips of cloth with different colored lights playing on them were stretched across the ceiling and red and white curtains were hung at each end of the gym. Palms added a final touch to the decorations. The per- sons responsible for this were Tim Harrington, head of the committee composed of Mary Belle Wilkie, Dar Waters, and lieena Rogers. The punch brought in many favorable comments. To make things neater and better it was served on the third Hoor. lklary Eleanor Truax headed the punch committee with Barbara McNeel, Nancy Nesbit, and Merrilyn Olson helping her. The other committees were: publicity, Mary blane lNIarks, chair- man, and Barbara Anderson, Mary Kessler, and Dale Buck helpingl invitations, Barbara Ewbank, chairman. We want to thank Mrs. Nofsker and Miss Hoard for helping us with everything and, as a last word, we think, anyway, that Prom was completely successful. il L.. N lv 1 ,- MN Q. l . Q f i The Sophomore Shuffle lt The big social event of the year for the Sophomores was the Sophomore Shuffle. lt was held February twenty-second in the upper gym. You could hardly recognize the gym though, because there were so many brightly colored baloons Hoating around. We didn't count them but there were supposed to be fourteen hundred. They were arranged in bunches, the biggest one being in the center and the others around the sides. Potted plants added to the festive decorations. Bill Bunt's orchestra was kept busy playing fast tunes for the gay crowd. The punch boys were also kept busy serving their re- freshing drink. Indeed, we may say that the Shuffle went off beautifully and made up for the lack of one last year. The committees worked hard and got very good results. Miss johnson and Miss Weightman deserve credit too for their grand help in making the Shuffle a great success. ig- EZ?f -7 f sf ff' 52M Zgyalegyf ATHLETICS Tl?

Are you men or mice? The players looked dumbfoundedi they were tempted to say, Men, but were troubled with the moral problem of fibbing. The pep talk continued. You beeg brain brawnies, why don't you get out there and fight? just because there are puddles on the field, you dont have to act like turtles. Wee Willie piped up, Oh give me a camel and watch me go. You better fag-get about that: you cant have one now. Youre supposed to be keeping training rules. I never kept training rules for three years. Why should I start now? After all, life is young and so am I. Coach again. You boys look terrible out there. What makes you look so poohed out? Silent Kal rationalized. Well, you see, coach, we all have the lucyk strike let-down. We run fast but the other guys run faster. Well you look stiff, why don't you limber up? But Zommer said, I don't see how that can be. We all went out on a bender last night and got plenty of exercise. At least I did, I chinned myself on a bar for half an hour. Yes, and Youbank told me I had fine form out there, interspersed Captain I-Ioola jims, we may have clubfeet, but we cover the ground. True, but the trouble is you cover the ground horizontally instead of vertically. And you Nucks, whats wrong with you? I never saw satch playing. And say, Binnie, for hA+'s sake, is this game too hard for you? No Coach, it's the essiest game I ever played in, and Peck over here says its olie a starter for him, and as far as that goes Cud Crodhead says there never was a keena game. Well I guess I'll set 'em up for you, boys, you need liquid courage you know. Ray said however, I already set 'em up Coach, but the trouble was I had to set the boys up first. Clug, glug, glug resounded from every nook. Each drank deep but Huron Hill I-Iendie who chirped, I never touch the vile stuff. Down went the Coca Cola bottles, this was the pause that refreshed. Now why don't you pass that ball around? You boys don't co- operate. Even if they don't work with you, you should work with them. After all gentlemanliness has its virtues. The trouble is you're all playin' to the babes in the standsg you Kal, why were you looking at Plancher all the time? Well a fella has to have some inspiration. Ciriel, what are you chewing your fingernails and ripping your suit for? a W-well I'm-m n-n-nervous. What have you got to be nervous about, your action won't come till after the game. Now when I went to school I was known as Eleetfoot Elapp, Eleetfoot Flapp, the flouncy flit-mouse of firmament, fire, and fanciful fantasy, flexible, flagitious, flabbergasting, fabulous, and facetious feetsball. Now when I charged- Say Coach, we think it would be a whole lot simpler if they gave each team a ball and let 'em both go. Aw shucks, why not give each player a ball, then old tub-front could do a decent job of reffingf' The science of the game demands that an inequality be set up through the defensive and the offensive-thus you have your short shuttle pass, your dippy reverse, and your reciprocal redundancy play: and so you see-- Suddenly I-Ianse observed. Say coach I just looked outside--the referee started the second half ten minutes ago. The other teams got fifty points already. On the opposite page are pictures of the games withBaraboo, Watertown.

LITE RAT UIQE , 1 5 3 'FT Q, I J A Great American Pastime It is said that the amount of money spent annually in the United States for chewing gum is greater than that for school textbooks. CWe should certainly realize what a stupendous sum this must be, for we have experienced the buying of textbooksj Think of the great economic boon provided by the circulation of so much currency! lt is overwhelming, also, when we Note how much this busi- ness relieves the unemployment situation in tropical South America, especially in jungle regions where the chicle is gathered and where the natives have felt the deplorable need for economic stabilization. Who could have opened the gateway to this vast gum industry? It may have arisen out of the great need of humanity for just such an article. Perhaps Pizarro. traversing forested areas during his South American travels, encountered a small cud of the rubbery sub- stance. It is I1Ot impossible that the commander experienced considerable diffi- culty in the removal of this sticky mass from his boot. He might have been forced to gnaw portions of the gum from his fingers after they had in turn re- moved the greater portion from the boot. Finding the chewing of this substance enjoyable, the Spaniards might have enlarged upon Pizarro's mishap, thus intro- ducing the chicle to civilization. Who knows? The fact remains, however, that the South Americans are greatly indebted to the father of the gum industry, whoever he may be. At the present time United States gum fans masticate some 12,000,000 pounds of chicle each year, sending 356,000,000 to the tropics in exchange. Previous to the birth of the gum industry, little or no tree surgery was practiced in Brazil. Ah, but this is all changed! One may now find evidences of native operations in the form of great gashes and cuts on the tree trunks from which the chicle has been extracted. lt is indeed encouraging to witness the steady progress of surgery and the forward march of science in these regions. You now inquire, NVhat benefits are derived from the gum business, other than the great economic and scientihc boons to society? My answer is that, in addition to improving the conditions of the masses, gum chewing is exceedingly beneficent to the individual who indulges in this greatest of American pastimes. In the first place, a certain grace ofjaw action, which is not to be found among people of other nationalities, is developed by the continued mastication. Before going deeper into the subject, let us consider the various chewing techniques which tend to promote that subtle grace so envied by our foreign friends. There are thiree fundamental strokes to be mastered if one is to become accomplished in the art of chicle chewing. These essential strokes are the vertical method, the horizontal technique, and the mixed system, which requires the greatest amount of skill and coordination. The hrst stroke is undoubtedly the most common. since it is seen at all football games. Quick and vigorous jaw movements are required for this vertical or up and down method. Above all. the motions should be decisive. The more accomplished enthusiasts are able to achieve a slight crackling sound on the downward movement. This crackling is incompar- able to other sounds for the satisfaction and contentment engendered in the individual as well as the spectators about him. The second chewing method is probably less common, as it is to be seen chiefly in theatres where films of romance are being shown. In this case, the individual moves his upper jaw gently to one side and his lower jaw to the other side, cracking the gum at the farthest ex- tremities of movement. The mixed technique is by far. however, the most com- plicated, involving a mixture of the two former strokes, the chief motion being circular. lt requires suave and furtive movements. such as can be accomplished silently while ones instructor is busily engaged at the blackboard. By careful and meticulous practice of these three techniques one is guaranteed an enviable grace of jaw action. fpractice with a metronome is especially recommended to improve ones tempol ln describing the various gum chewing methods l have entirely omitted the process of gum swallowing, employed only in extreme emer- gencies, as when one's gum is detected in the classroom. The hasty gulping of gum involves so many intricate procedures and such accurate timing that it would discourage the amateur greatly. Enjoyment plus grace is the motto of the gum fans, who advocate two exercises in particular to increase the enjoy- ment of chewing gum. The hrst and most appealing exercise is that of stringing ones gum. ln this process, the bulk of the gum is held between the teeth while a small portion is strung out to its extremity, at which point it maintains a somewhat hairlike appearance. The gum is then meticulously gathered in again, much in the manner of seamen hauling in a cable. The second exercise is more or less educational. It consists of pressing ones teeth against a flattened piece of gum which has been well worked in. The impression of ones teeth is thus molded in the gum, displaying the positions of the molars, canines, and incisors. Another exercise may be attempted after one has become adept at the preceding methods. This exercise makes use of the versatile substance known as bubble gum, the idea being to blow large bubbles which burst in a I'I'1OSt amusing way. In the case of Will Rogers, the famous comedian, gum chewing added to his prestige. The supporters of the gum industry contend that gum chewing teaches thrift to children at an early age, if they are shown how to make use of the same cud for periods of a week or more. Thus, for improving industry, promoting grace, emphasizing enjoyment, and founding American principles among children, gum chewing is unsurpassed. -Elizabeth Park. The Chills Have It She lifted an inquisitive hand slowly from under the woolen comforter and then pulled it back quickly. The cold crisp air had sent chills shivering down her spine. lt was another cold early morn with frigid blasts of air whirling around the supposedly air tight house. The radiators were humming and sending out tiney jets of steam, but the warm air that should have resulted just didn't result. A few moments of relaxation in her comfortable and cozy bed gave her courage to go on. With a grim look of determination, she threw back the blankets, seized her kimono lying nearby, and put it on. Not knowing her next move, she proceeded to shifting her feet in her cold slippers. Her eyes danced about the room in time with her chattering teeth, as she searched for a warmer covering. None was to be seen, so she sought out the possibilities for some warm air. The defeated radiators jets were twisted back and forth, but this resulted in burning the chilly fingers. I-ler foot shot out and landed a sound thwack on the radiator. Only a shout of pain was her reward. She pounded on this end, then on that end, but still the beaten object wouldn't behave correctly. Defeated but defiant, she glared at the windows. Surely, something was responsible for the polar aspects of the room. Reassuring herself, she pushed down on the windows to see if the winter air from the outside was not seeping through open cracks. She pounded on the tops, opened and shut them twice- thrice-then found her difficulty. With angry cries she grasped a shoehorn and beat savagely on the bits of ice which kept the windows from closing. Ice flew everywhere. Finally, she slammed the window down and turned about thoroughly rked. Her hands were sore and red from cold, and her face showed her great discomfort. She jabbed each hand in the opposite sleeve and rubbed her slippers together to work up some friction for warmth. Again the radiator received a bit of forceful encouragement but still gave no heat. jerking the door open, she shouted in the hall, but there was no answer. The only person required to arise at six-thirty in the morning couldnt expect a response. She slammed the door noisily, hoping it would wake up everyone, and rushed to the bathroom. However, the cold, white tile floor and the icy moistncss on the faucets turned her in her tracks. The thermometer outside the window caught her eye. She ran over to in- vestigate. lt was hfteen degrees below zero, She shivered at the very sight and felt twice as cold. Her eyes narrowed to slits, and her mouth tightened. Monday, or no Monday, no school could draw here to it on a day like that. She rubbed her numb hands together, then used them to tighten her belt. Scratching her head thoughtfully and biting her lower lip to silence her chattering teeth, she tried to think over her situation. Absence meant explanations, but they were better than her chilly condition. Assuring herself her decision was right, she literally shivered over to her bed, threw oh' her kimono, and crawled in. Pulling the woolen comforters up to her chin, she buried her head in the cold pillow, quietly and contentedly relaxed. -Dorothy Lawrence On How to Start a Car Practically every one has, at one time or another during his life, been called upon to start a car. People who have had this experience may be divided into three groups: those who have actually started a car, those who have done so from the back seat, and those who have started it through the medium of their physics class. lt is with the hrst division that this article deals chiefly. This group may also be divided into several classes of people. For instance, there are those who drive only for enjoyment, who consider driving a leisure time activity, and so, having plenty of time to start the car, they can reason out the process step by step, and can actually make the starting of the car an art and a pleasure. Un the other hand there are those people who look upon it as a painful duty which resembles jelly in that one never knows how it will turn out, whose job depends upon starting the car in a second, such as the taxi driver, or the school teacher with an eight o'clock. lt is hoped that this article will be par- ticularly helpful to the latter, with whom the author sympathizes most deeply. l feel that a piece of advice should be given at this point, which, if followed, will undoubtedly facilitate the starting of the car. Back seat drivers are ex- tremely detrimental to the complicated precedure l am about to describe, and l cannot stress too strongly the fact that the driver should be absolutely alone in the car until he has it started. The first step in starting a car is to turn on the ignition. Facing the driver is a bewildering array of dials, knobs, and gadgets placed upon an object called the dash board, and on which, if one looks hard enough, will be found a tiny lock into which a key may be inserted. lt is particularly helpful to have the key with you when you enter the car, for its absence will necessitate a trip into the house in search of it. The right key is also of great value. otherwise a second trip to the house may have to be made. lt is at this point that a great many tragedies occur. The driver turns on the ignition and suddenly remembers that she hasnt phoned the grocer. or if the driver is a male, that he hasn't kissed his wife good bye. Both acts require a great deal of time, and so when he or she returns to the car it will be found, in all probability, that the insignificant looking key in the tiny little lock was left in a horizontal position, that the invisible object called the battery has run down, and consequently, that the car won't start. As this is an article on how to start a car the conclusion may be safely drawn that the key should never be left in such a position at such a time. Other factors causing a run down battery are lights or a fan that have been left on all night. A call to a garage and the changing of the battery requires some time, which might be spent in having the water, oil, gas, and perhaps the tires checked. Any oversight in regard to these things is likely to be fatal. Even with a recharged battery without water a car is likely to burn up, without oil ditto, without gas it will positively refuse to budge, and with a flat tire it will have a marked tendency to creep toward a ditch at the side of the road. Even if the battery does not need recharging the above items should be attended to anyway, and at regular intervals. The next step, after turning on the ignition, is to press on the starter, a small pedal somewhere in the vacinity of the drivers feet which is sometimes hard to distinguish from other similar pedals along the floor of the car. No success will be obtained unless the right pedal, the starter, is pressed firmly to the floor with the foot. lt sometimes happens that this is all that is needed to start the motor going, but this occurence is very rare. The engine may emit strange noises, but the purr of the motor is usually not among them. We will suppose, however, that the fates have been kind to the driver, and that the desired happening takes place. Next the car must be made to move. lf, when the car was started, it was shifted into first or reverse, and if, in his anxiety to keep the motor going the driver presses on the accelerator the move- ment may take place even quicker than is desired. The results of such an action are too varied to be described here. I can only ask you to take my word for it that you should under no circumstances allow such a thing to happen, for my own experiences from such procedure have not been the most pleasant. The least of the dangers is killing the engine. After the motor is running smoothly the next step is to shift-we will sup- pose the driver is backing out of his garage-into reverse. The left foot presses the clutch, a pedal somewhere to the left of the right foot, to the floor while the right hand pushes the gear shift, a rod-like projection towards the left front of the car. Success is usually greeted by a clashing noise which is known as strip- ping the gears. This is generally acknowledged as being extremely bad for the car. After years of practice this noise may sometimes be eliminated while shifting. After the gear shift is in the desired position the right foot should be placed lightly on the accelerator, a rectangular pedal, and should be pressed slowly down as the left foot is removed from the clutch. lf nothing happens it may be wise to look and see if the emergency brake is on. Once the brake is released the process should be repeated. Not infrequently the car will give a convulsive jerk and-stop. This necessitates an entire repetition of the whole procedure. Usually having once stopped, the motor is not easily started again, and the choke and throttle may have to be employed. These objects are two small knobs located on the dash board, and are generally very helpfully labeled, so that no more than five minutes search is necessary. The ignition should be turned on, these knobs pulled toward the driver and away from the dash board, and the starter stepped on. Several minutes may have to be spent in manipulation of the choke and throttle before the desired spark is obtained and the motor is started once again. The driver should be very careful in remembering to push the two knobs back in again. If this is forgotten the car, once it is moving, will limp along to the accompaniment of strange noises, and may eventually stop in the middle of the street. Now the previously reported method of shifting should be followed. The foot on the clutch should be pressed down. At this point it may be necessary to shift into neutralfthis is a position in which the gear shift can be pushed slightly in a horizontal movement, and in which position it should always be when the car is first started-and to get out of the car and close the garage doors. This done the driver should shift into reverse again and proceed as before. As the clutch is let in the car may begin to act like a spoiled child, and give convulsives springs into the air. The last of these leaps will undoubtedly be accompanied by a coughing noise as the engine dies. Here, I must admit, even the most stout hearted will hail a cab or bus and thus proceed to their destination, although the complete process could again be repeated, and eventually with success. -Rosemary Frank. I'll Meet You Please, miss-miss what-ever your name is-you're poking at my head so hard it's practically numb now, complained a fat, red-faced and perspiring patron of Madie lVIayfair's Beauty Shoppe. l'm so sorry, madam, l'm afraid I was thinking of something else, her pretty young operator apologized hastily with the look of one who has been unpleasantly aroused. Quite obviously, young woman, replied the irratated customer, but l'm paying good money for a wave, not a punch in the head. My man could arrange that any day. Sadie didn't reply. To tell the truth, her mind was already far away. All day, every day, she could only dream in amazement of the wonder that had befallen her. She, Sadie lVlcGee, beauty operator, who had saved and saved for a brief vacation at an exclusive place, for clothes appropriate for such a venture, now could hardly believe what had happened to her. She could see herself now, in a green tweed suit, and linen blouse of daffodil yellow, her big fur collar up around her pretty face, a green hat with yellow feather over bright coppery curls, and gloves, purse, shoes-all that matched- stepping casually out of a meter cab at the door of the Palmer House. And she saw herself that evening at a masquerade, dressed as a gay Perriette dancing in the arms of a tall masked Figure who, strangely enough, was Harlequin! Then a Perrot cut in-how strange that all three of them should be there! And when midnight came, and the master of ceremonies called for all to unmask Perrot and Harlequin both had claimed her dance, They unmasked. Perrot tall, lean, brown, bright golden hair and clear grey eyeseHarlequin tall, black haired, olive skinned, black eyes that pierced the heart of Perriette-she, Sadie. And for two weeks Perrot and Harlequin paid her court. They were both rich, had cars, sent orchids, and clusters of waxy gardenias. And Harlequin proposed. Moonlight soft music, swaying trees and Harlequin. They had never told their real names-they hadn't needed to-the whole time had been too fairy-like too spoil with reality. Now Harlequin told her-he was a Whitney- ofthe racing Whitneys. He offered her his heart and his all. Perriette told Harle- quin of her plight, her deception, and watched in hurt amazement how hand- some Harlequins face darkened, how he withdrew his offer gracefully, but meaninglywand left, with the same grace, but meaning. Perriette, broken-hearted knew she was only sad because he would surely warn her laughing Perrot and she would never see him again. But no! A knock on her door-Perrot -Perrot telling her he loved her-he wanted her to marry him. But-but Perrotfi she had cried, don't you know! Didnt Harlequin tell-- 'lYes, my brave little Perriette, I have seen Harlequin-but Perriette I have no money either -I'm a masquerade too. Well have to work hard my Perriette, but we can work hard together. The deep voice faded. Two figures melted together in the soft dusk that hlled the room, and as their lips met, some were the orchestra played- lVleet me at the masquerade- I'll meet you at the masquaradef' -Barbara Ewbank. The Worm in the Wheaties Hamlet senior stole noiselessly past his recumbent brother, Claudius. He opened, with greedy fingers, the cupboard door, and from it snatched a tan box. He devoured its contents with fearful haste. Then he hurled the empty box at Claudius. Claudius sat up. He yawned. He opened his eyes. Curses! hc bellowed. Curses! Hamlet senior has stolen my Vifheatiesf' Hamlet senior left the room. Claudius paced frenziedly, up and down. Every time he passed the bed, on which lay the empty box of Wheaties, four tears rolled down his cheeks, and he tore three hairs from his head. Finally, in despair, he paused a moment, and then muttered, To be or not to be, that is the question, Whether 'tis nober-oh, heck, anyway- If I can't eat my Wheaties, I shall starve. So I'll tell Papa on him- Hamlet Senior entered. Claudius looked at him, Hamlet Senior looked at Claudius. That was all. Years later, Hamlet senior was king. But Claudius had not forgotten the loss of his Wheaties. Nay, he could not forget, for Hamlet senior still pursued the custom. And so Claudius starved slowly from lack of Wheaties, and Hamlet senior grew plump and strong. So, one afternoon, Claudius, weak because he had not eaten his Wheaties, was pacing up and down in the garden. Hamlet was resting. Good reader, that days Wheaties had indeed been eaten, but not by Claudius. That is why Hamlet was resting. Claudius passed his brother. just then, his legs, rickety from malnutrition. doubled up under him. Wheaties, he groaned. Give mejust one little Wheatie, lest I die! V' Hamlet senior stirred. In his sleep he murmured, Claudius Wheaties- the last box-I ate-mmmmmm-m-mf And then Claudius, with a wild howl, fell upon his brother, and murdered hi.m. CClaudius lived happily ever after, on Wheatiesj -Marjorie Aberg On Riding Esculators There are many ways of riding Escalators, as I can testify. I consider myself an authority on the subj ect, having gotten considerable experience recently in Fields. The green or fresh from the country rider Cseveral of those being in my party I had a good chance to observe themj are continually stubbing their toes on the steps, getting their hngers caught in the moving parts, or leaning over the edge of the staircase, gawking at the store, and then bumping their heads on the upper story as the Escalator progresses upward. Another favorite trick is to try to walk upward on a downward Escalator. Having passed this stage myself, I can sympathize with the llustered woman who ran and ran on the stairs, and still kept going backward. Another embarassing thing is to realize, halfway up or down, that one has left a purse, package, suit-case, or key on a counter on the floor one has just left. Then, in making a line plunge, one is likely to upset a few people, not to mention the inconvenient swinging motion one gets into when trying to defy the laws of gravity. There are two distinct methods of riding an Escalatorwfirst the stationary or standing motion, where a person stands very stiff and straight and goes up or down just as the Escalator carries them. These people are usually the blase, experienced, steady customers who are just too bored, and can't feel the excite- ment others do. The second type is the progressive, or running rider. He wears himself out by running in that peculiar swaying motion flooking very comical to bystandersb peculiar to this energetic type. Incidently, by exact timing, run- ning up the Escalator steps saves a maximum of 30 seconds, and leaves the rider a crumpled and exhausted heap at the top of the flight. Incidently, never try running down. I did, tripped, fell, bumped into one fat woman, her poodle, her -I0-odd packages, three blase salesmen, a store manager, and four other pas- sengers. Another thing. If, by any chance, you are trying to look experienced on the first ride, be sure to look at your feet as you step on or off. Stepping from a floor to a moving stairway, especially one which changes shape as it rises, is bad on ones equilibrium, not to mention ones shoes. And now, in conclusion, let me tell you a trick I found after three hours wandering in a huge store. Sit down on the steps, if you want to rest, but by everything wonderful on his earth, heed my warning and don't sit on someone else's feet. -Margaret Iiinne. Lake Superior Gone Mad One morning when I awakened and looked out of my window, all I could see was an endless stretch of grey sky, and the tops of the apple trees whipping wildly in the wind to the accompaniment of the roaring of the waves. A stormy day! Well, that didn't bother me any. I jumped out of bed and dressed in a pair of warm overalls and heavy shoes. After breakfast I donned a warm sweater and tam, snatched the telescope and opened the door. In rushed a swish of cold air which made me close it in a hurry. Oh, but the lake was rough and wild. As far as I could see along the shore there were constant whirlwinds of spray as the angry waves beat against the rocks. Far out I could see a freighter plowing her way through the water. I focused the telescope and sighted her. I could see a man in the front of the boat but he soon went into the cabin. I moved my telescope a fraction of an inch and watched the bow cut through a wave, the spray swirling high, another and another, until it made me dizzy. I put down the telescope and ran down to the second wall. As I stood on the wall it grew quieter, the sullen waves rolling in grandly and then breaking just before they reached the shore, thousands of tiny bubbles, chasing each other over and over. The wind whipped in my face. The lake was becoming more and more agitated until wave after wave swept over the dock carrying with them stones from the other side of the dock. I could feel the spray, cold but fresh, on my face as I stood lb feet above the water. And after each wave a grinding, grinding, grind- ing as the water receded and the rocks rolled back an inch or so. It made one feel kind of awed. The shore line was all changed at this place now. I was getting chilly but was too thrilled to move. Always another big wave coming in, bring- ing driftwood, churning, frothing, whirling, roaring like something gone mad. -Barbara l-Iaake. Who Are the Freshmen If you were a stranger coming to Wisconsin High School and you wanted to pick out some Freshman, how would you go about it? Now the main difhculty would be to distinguish them from the Sophomore and the juniors for possibly in some cases from the eighth and seventh gradesj NVell, taking everything into consideration the best bet would be to go up to the noisiest group of people in the hall and nine chances out of ten it will be a group of Freshman. However if you are the particular kind you might want to pick out more Freshmen. Now not all Freshmen are noisy! Indeed no, some are the studious type that take their studying very seriously. You might possibly Hnd them crowded over in a corner of the bench in the front hall. But unless you spot them immediately they will probably have moved to a more secluded corner where they can really study. As l have already said there is the noisy group. This group is divided into two parts, the boys and the girls. Now the girls generally gather in part of the hall and exchange news. Now it must be understood that they do not gossip! No! They just exchange news. After all to be a good American citizen you must know whats going on in the world we live in. Then there is the second part of the noisy group. The boys. The girl's noise is mostly verbal while the boys noise is created by tripping each other and watching their friends books fall all over the place. Then they seem to find it fascinating to kick each other. Of course, in every school are the boys that shoot spit balls. This takes place in studyhall behind Miss Davis' unknowing back. There are certain boys that gather a great pile of books together and then retreat behind the pile when they see a spit-ball heading their way. It might be safe to say that they are the people that are the farthest from Miss Davis' heart in the school. Then of course there are the boys that see how high they can lift the study hall table and then when they hear her coming they drop it. This creates quite a disturbance in study hall and poor Miss Davis comes dash- ing out from the book cases to see who is causing the disturbance. but in vain, for everyone is studying. Another example of violence might be seen in the Latin class. The subject of the strenuous fight will probably be a tack. There is one girl Ca member of the noisy groupj that causes a great deal of disturbance in the hall. All the other members of the group will be at one end of the hall and she will be at the other. The group will suddenly be aroused by the loud voice of our friend, Ch kids, guess what happened in our cab this morning. And then we patiently listen to a long drawn out story about some boy the cab went by that waved to her. From what I have just related l think you will agree with lylr. Ryan when he said that we are the noisiest class in school and agree with me when l say we are the melting pot of the school. Aliatherine Salter. Ten of Them Ten more minutes of this German class and then to get my driving license. Maybe Dad won't be outside waiting for me. Ivlaybe the car isn't out of the garage. Nine more minutes left before that bell rings and sends me dashing toward that door. I've been waiting about a year for this day and now it is here. Eight more minutes. Warren got his special driving permit the same day he was I-I but I had my 14th birthday a half a year ago. Seven more minutes. This noon the car was in the garage being repaired and Dad said he didn't know if it would be ready in time. Uh why did he have to take it to the garage today? I-Ie knew a week ago that we were going down to-night. Six more minutes. I might as well not get all steamed up over nothing be- cause he isn't going to be outside when that bell rings anyway. Five minutes left. I wonder if this watch is right. It's probably slow. I bet its 3:30 right now. Eour minutes left. I wonder if the bull that I will have to drive around will be nice or whether he will act tough. I-Ie will ask me many questions. Letis see now if he should ask me when I can park in front of a fire hydrant I will tell him never. A Three minutes left. If he should tell me to turn to my left when entering the square I will tell him that I cannot. Ch nuts-the probably won't ask me any of those questions anyway. Two minutes left and then that teacher will be cut short by the ringing of a bell and my dash for the door. Une minute left. I better get my books ready so that when it rings I will be ready to dash for that door. klohn said that they ask you your height, weight, color of eyes and hair. Let's see-my eyes are green and my weight isiAhhhh! there goes the bell. sDavid Sommer. I Some Reason or Another A guilty conscience is a dreadful thing to have. And I had a dreadful one. I-Iere's how it happened. Mother, Gertrude and Franie, and I want to see 'Lloyds of London' this afternoon, may we? But no! no! I had to go to As You Like It with Elisabeth Bergner as Mother had lectured to me Shes a great English actress and the play is very good. But Mom! I suppose she heard that a million times. The other girls clidn't want to see As You Like lt either, but such is life! I-Iere we were down town and for some reason or another I don't know how we got there, but we were in front of Lloyds of London at the Qrpheum, A-hem! looking at the pictures out side. Oh let's go in Jeanne, your mom won't know, said one. Oh, l don't clarst disobey Mother, replied angelic me. Come on! 'Lloyds of London' is more or less a historical play or something. It'll be just as good. It isn't trash. For some reason or another, I found myself inside. I don't know how I got in, isn't that funny? It wasn't for me. I had a dreadful guilty conscience. I can't remember of enjoying one single thing in the movie and my humor was anything but overwhelming when any joke occured. After about fifteen minutes I couldn't stand it any longer. I was burning with rage. I still don't know why. I reasoned it all out how lXIother wouldnt find out and what I would say, but that didn't put me at ease either. My guilty conscience got the best of me. Bah! We got up and went to As You Like It. -,I eanne George. A Dinner Table Conversation Actors: Paul and Walter Bietila, Pop, joe and Bill.

Above are the results. The grand prize went to Bill Mutchler Csecond picture, second rowl, who, even at that early age, showed tendencies toward ball playing. For this striking pose Bill received a ducky pair of white baby shoes, useful no doubt. The chub in the tub in the bottom row is Mary jane Thomas who received girls' first prize, a ittie pink bonnet. The sour puss in the center of the top row is Phil Desch, winner of boys' first prize. The far-off look seems to prognosticate the editing of this book and the base bribery and blackmail connected with it. The prize was a hot water bottle Cpetite and pinky which, however, was used as an ice pack. The rest are as follows: the muscular babe in the upper left corner, Cal Royston, boys' third, in the upper right, Barbara lkiilward, girls' second, the first in the second row, Elizabeth Corry Cwith the mama-that-man-again lookj, honorable mentiong the end of that row, Bob Curtin, boys' second: in the lower left corner, Barbara Kessenich, honorable mentiong the right of the next two, Ruth Wilson, girls' thirdg and last, Elizabeth Park, honorable mention. The First Time He appears a bit uneasy as he bids dis folks, 'iGoodnight, Goes quickly up into his room and slams the door shut tight, Seems somewhat apprehensive, as if guilty of a crime, Brings forth a pack of Twenty Grands fHe'd only had a dime.J He struggles with the cellophane, at last removes the wrapper, Then pulls out a cigarette with manner truly dapper. He taps it gently on his wrist, as hes seen others do it, Gives the match a studied scratch, and then the lad goes to it. His cigarette he holds between his thumb and index finger, And studies it intently, but so long does he linger That the match begins to burn him, and he drops it in a hurry Directly on the chair seat. Qui' hero begins to worry As he sees the black encircled hole, the result of his venture, And wonders what his lVIom will say, just what will be her censure. With darning cotton thick and coarse he mends the peeping hole, And from results appears to be a novice in his role Cf seamstress. He proceeds once more to light his cigarette, Which finally he really does, though much to his regret. He chokes and sputters, coughs and gasps, the smoke gets in his eyes, And on his face is registered a look of blank surprise To find that what hed thought so easy was pretty hard to do. He just can't seem to inhale right. Oh if he only knew The technique of those kids at school. Each blows smoke through his nose, Flicks ashes off with such hnesse, blows circles in long rows. His stomach feels so queerly that he lies down on his bed, Mind made up that by morning he will certainly be dead. Half the cigarette to go-how can he ever stand it7 He opens windows for some airehis dizziness demands it. There is a tapping at the door. He -jumps up in a panic, Throws the stub upon the bed, rolls on it. ltle is frantic. His mother enters briskly with a freshly mended shirt. His answers to her questions are so peevish and so curt That she lectures him severely on respecting other's feelings, Reminds him it's his mother with whom he's so rudely dealing. She leaves at last. He bounces up. His back is cherry red. The blankets all lie scorched upon the slightly smoldering bed. He makes a resolutionvthe reason may be clear! That he will put ohf smoking for at least another year. -Rosemary Frank. My dear Knights of the Docoglossa Table, Kindly inform lvliss G--- that her unfastidious and corruptable nature will avail her absolutely nothing.

As for my own speed , may l say that it has seemingly been grossly exaggerated. h liss G-H. alias Cuakari fcacajao melanocephalusl, need not base any of her hopes on a fioundering reputation, for she will receive no justification of satisfaction. There- fore think long and wisely, for the condemnation flowing from prejudice means nothing but seyers deeply. With your help may l be delivered from this Bronx Indian. Yours truly. Chuck .9 .

NVith our super-wit we must, through logic, be superior students and profs. For proof, witness the following phrases drawn from stark reality. A student QBat Sanderson by namel wished to discover how to raise turnips suc- cessfully. He asked Mr. Phillips. Unrufiied, Professor Phillips tbeing a sort of horticulturist himselfj answered, lake hold of the tops and pull. Certain bashful boys, wishing to gain favor in the eyes of their lady friends, asked hlr. Davis how to make an impression. Sit down in a pan of dough, was his reply. The American History class, learning about the complexities of money. asked lVIiss johnson how to double their money in six months. Get it changed to paper and fold it. A question in Home lic was, Name twelve useful household articles. A package of needles, was one answer. Asked how to write without pen and ink, lVIr. Pooley advised a lead pencil. C. H. Waller, vocational expert, giving a formula for getting rich to a class, said, 'iWork like , and never spend a cent.
