Say, Zeke, you'd better throw another Ioq on the fire, it's beginning to go out. We need a little music, too. lt's too bad Henry Williams isn't here to entertain us with his harp as ho did on March l5th, On the l9th the seniors and juniors were the envy of the freshmen and sophomores when they were dismissed at twosthirty. How- ever, they deserved beinq dismissed early after taking the state tests that morning and afternoon. We had a pleasant surprise on the utter- noon of the 20th. Dr. Frank O. Brown revealed to us some astounding facts about science in the future. Say, boys, that was really a right swell banquet the Forensic Club gave tho cowpunchers on our basketball team on tlio 2Uth. ln order to keep our cowhands from being laid-up we had Schick tests and shots for diph, theria on the 2lst. Of course, boys, we were all busy with our biq round-up, the circus, from the 25th to the 30th. We really had an honor that none of the previous circuses have had: a visit from Gov- ernor Green to our performance on the 29th. We still think this year's circus was tops. On .April 2nd some of our newer cowhands, the sophomores, had a rip-roarin' party. Say, Clem, that St. Germain boy really liked to catch-up on his sleep in schoil didn't he? l-le was asleep in English class April 9th aaainf' Yes, sir, we won our first baseball qame. Warren bowed to us on their diamond IU to l. Arid You Cant Take It With You, was a lfiq hit both the llth and l2th. The Senior cow-

I I We all relaxed on lanuary 29 listening to the rhythmic strains of Spike Stanford's band and chorus To start the new month off right, we had an assembly by Mr. Scott-Morrison, called ln- limate Glimpses. Maybe his piano music inspired our rough riders. That night they stampeded Burlington by a neat 20 to 36. Feb, ruary 4th, we welcomed back a former ranch boss, Mr. King, who left Z-B ranch to serve our country. On the 8th, all our cowhands were slicking up again for pictures for our ranch records. On the 9th our cowpunchers did it again. Wood- stock bowed to us, 27 to 38. Everyone on the ranch was singing the praises of Abraham Lincoln on February l2th. We got a vacation from our ranch duties. On the 16th, even the cows had long faces. Highland Park had cor- ralled us the night before, 25 to 42. How's your hobby coming along, Eb? Or didn't that assembly by Edwin Rowland on February 18 influence you very much? Yep, l sure liked it. l wonder if it was Eagles hobby to pile up 24 points as he did at the Kenosha game on the l9th. We won, 51 to 32. Lady Luck threw us then. On the 21st, we lost to St. Catherine by a score of 3l to 33. The Spanish-Latin Club had a late Valentines party on the 25th. All of us almost lost our voices along with the games to New Trier in the Regional on the 26th. They didn't throw us very farg the score was 29 to 35. Again we started the month off right with an assembly by the public speaking class. Then we got set back again when we saw on the 4th, 5th, and 6th what atrocities a camera can commit, but even then some of the dudes bought them. Page Seventy nine
