THE SCHOOL
One Lonely Morning
A Novelette By Murky Spillin
One morning during exam week, three people who shall remain name- less but, who for convenience will be referred to as X. Y, and Z, congre- gated in X's room for the purpose (supposedly) of studying for a history exam. The time was 4 a.m. From that time on, no one on that dorm was getting any sleep, including X's room- mate, who, upon being wakened sev- eral times by s u c h comments as "Wake up X, you got company," in addition to being locked out of the room once when he excused himself to answer a call of nature, finally gave up the ghost and flaked on down to Y's room about 5, and fell into bed. By this time all the dorm had had a chance to appreciate the trio's humor. Such little tricks as run- ning into a room, cutting on the light and yelling, "Get up, get up, it's an eclipse of the sun," and shining a light into a half-awake boy's eyes and then giving him a deadly "Foot- ie thump" on the back of the head were practiced discreetly. These little shows of affection had all the boys on dorm in a pleasant mood and as the night began to disappear, the group was enlarged by the addition of W, who always feels frisky about this time of the morning. The group of conspirators slinked into the room of McGee the cube, otherwise known as "the 3-D square." One of them shook the bed, and just as McGee opened his eyes, Operator W let him have it in the face with a can of ready-mixed shaving cream. The cube screamed a few choice words at the top of his lungs, and, since Colonel Z., the infamous early-riser, was sleeping in the adjacent room, the boys thought it wise not to re- main in the immediate area, and they
rushed pell-mell out into the darkened hall. Agent X ran full tilt into a door, spun around, and stumbled into the wall, thus assuming the rude awaken- ing and the immediate sallying forth of the vengeful colonel. But lo and behold, much to the infinite relief of X, the good Mr. Zettler slept peace- fully on.
When the 7 o'clock bell rang, the boys were really whooping it up. Suddenly. a ghostly apparition ap- peared at the top of the steps. Agent Y gasped and said, "G-g-g-get t-t-t-

The Ole Astrologer
The Ole Astrologer opens a blood shot eye after a night and looks at his calendar. Seeing the date he realizes that he must check up on the
160 acres, so he sits up and brushes the Fritz beer cans off of him, and fumbles for his telescope. Thinking he'd better go down to the campus, he gets in his new green Cadillac, do- nated to him by Willy May because the ash trays were full, and he drives down to the campus from his stellar hideout.
Passing a cloud shaped like a basketball. he sees C. C. Kellog sit- ting on top, dreamily looking at a picture he is holding. Is that picture of Peggy? Jane? Mary Spence? No, it's C. C.'s hew, Rosenbluth, noted ba~ketball player for U.N.C. The Ole Astrologer notices a smash- ed portrait next to C. C.; Why it's Mapp; C. C. must really eat up Rosenbluth. The old man leaves Kel- log sitting in his pink basketball and goes on down to the campus.
Birthday Boy Parker looks embar- rassed when the whole school wishes "Happy Birthday" to Polly.
Spencer has another tough break. The Ole Astrologer really feels sorry for Charley when he on Iy gets a measly 99 in Mr. G.'s class for the month.
Bouncing Bobby Hall is the next on the Old Man's list. Mr. Hall tries an experiment and is thwarted by Razor, who also likes to dabble in physics. Sid straightens it all out by explaining the fine arts of the gas engine. Razor again gets in the act as he tries to run Spencer's steam en- gine, only to again botch the works. Conclusion: Razor will "really" pass physics.
Sid later gets cut by his old buddy, Mr. G. At this, Sid gets something wrong , and heads for Charlottesville, while his buddy Hose eats all of Sid's oranges.
