Show Attention, Boys! This letter came to the Scribe office a few days ago, and we think it expresses what most of the girls feel. Madam Editor: First may I quote one girl's remark on my subject? She summed up the whole situation with "The gentlemen of South all three of them!" Each afternoon, after both fifth and sixth periods, there is a mad dash for the bus-stop. Before I go any further I have nothing against the men. On the contrary, they're usually pretty nice to have around ; on dates they show all the consideration a girl could ask for. But on the buses they seem to forget they aren't the only ones that want to go someplace, so they act like a pushing, shoving herd of stampeded cattle. If they think they're cute, they're the only ones ! If they think they're gentlemen they need their heads examined! Tra not a large girl, but I'm strong and healthy. I don't mind standing on the buses, it's just the idea of the thing. The least the boys can do is to let the girls sit down after the great struggle to get on. If they're strong enough to push as hard as .they do, they're strong - enough to stand up for a short ride. -There's room for a lot of students on a bus. , and, if everyone cooperates, a lot f time, bruises, and chem papers will be saved. f;..-, . . . . A Victim. |
