Show w I Editorial Well, here is your complaint department again. Honestly, the editorial columns in the regular paper do mean something besides gripes, but seems like every time an issue is ready to come out, there are some things that the student-bodreally needs to be told about. This time though, it is more serious than usual, because it concerns not only the reputation of the school, but it is really hurting quite a few people. I imagine there are a lot of you who have taken part on one or more of the assemblies we have had so far this year, and all of you should know what Im talking about, when I say that the attitude the audience takes at the school assemblies is most uncooperative to say the least. If you have been, or are intending, to be on any assemblies this year, it will be to your advantage to help campaign against this attitude. The students act as though they were doing the performers a favor to attend the assemblies, when in reality, it is just the other way around. No one, whether they be professional or just one of the gang, can do their best for an audience which only takes the bother to laugh if they are in a laughing mood, and this mood occurs, usually, in the most dramatic part of the show. If you have ever tried to amuse someone, you will know how hard it is to stand in front of a group which is completely deadpan, and try to make them respond and have fun. It isnt as though we were asking you to make martyrs of yourselves, attending an assembly which isnt worth seeing, let alone applauding for.

Barefeet, Levis, boots, heels, bustles, and slinky dresses were slithering all over the place. By listening carefully to Mary Faye and Jo Ann plot their campaign of man capture, I decided it must be legal for a girl to chase a boy tonight. Jim Dunford flew down the stairs followed by Joyce N., Margaret C., Norma Henderson, Rae Dean Moulton, Vilate Lewis, and Mary Mitchell. What a magnetic personality he must have I thought, then found out they were merely trying to escape before the doors were locked. Parley Judd, Don Mac, ent B. and Ted N., must really enjoy nature as they sat out on the window sill all night long, looking up at the sky. There was a man called Sam marrying the students. After the ceremony they were given colored rings. I hate to mention this but we put the same kind on our chickens back home. Then each boy had a( drink (of cider) and was dragged out the door by some lovely lady.. That night as I drifted into sleep, I heard my father exclaim, Civilization, at last!

I All students with bicycles please make room for the New Blue Buick convertable belonging to our one and only Miss Wilson. After going the rounds of many car dealers, and finding it impossible to purchase a jeep, she settled on this bicycle. I have heard the reports that she hasnt even paid her first payment on it and also that it is charged to her brother, but of course you can never tell whether these things are true or not. But, for an enjoyable time, accompany Speed Wilson on her 49 bike. P. S. An unconfirmed report has just reached me, that an offer was received by Miss Wilson from a certain party in Colorado, to trade her bike for a jeep. Vice-Preside- Electric Love Since its a season for thanks, the following people say Joye Allred Thanks for the car. Norm Arbon Thanks for Joyce Walker.

SENATOR STALLSMELL thank you Thank you thank you, Mr. Handel, and all my good good friends from out and around B. Y. High who have come out to hear me speak tonight. Before I begin my speech I would like to say a few words. I didnt get up here to throw mud on my opponent I want you all to know he is a fine man, honest and upright. I just dont understand why he beats his w'ife, runs around with other women, and neglects his children like he does. I didnt get up here to make a long, drawn-ou- t political speech. I just want to tell you a few of my qualifications for this office which Im running. I have made politics my career for the past fourteen years. In 34 I was elected M.I.A. Sweetheart, which I served an honorable term of one year. At the end of this year I decided to run for football sweetheart and I caught her too. In 36 I ran for of PEGHC; that is the pallbearers, and gravediggers embalmers, health club. I was elected twice terms. In 38 for a for two-yefour-yea- r term I was elected head of the athletic department of the NFBI. That is the national foundation for bedfast invalids. Then I ran for president of Jolly Boys club here at B. Y. All these years I have been building my reputation for the U. S. Senate. All I ask of you my friends, is to use your voting right, and if you vote for me yes again four or five times I thank you. 1 Staff Box Published Monthly by the Journalism Class.
