THE OLE ASTROLOGER
Back again, World. Can it be that V. E. S. is still here? From the scope, it is, but wait a minute... .
Here's news: Rooty, the Narrows Bash, was so impressed with "Thun- der Road" that he has purchased a '40 Ford Coupe. Remember, Rooty, the legal . limit is five gallons.
Secret sources have it that Dub Tuck is having "her" up for Finals ... looks like the Friar is moving back from the matrons to the misses.
The shortest man in the Senior Class (5' 50") has left "Fiacco" to hunt alone; seems he got shot by one of Cupid's arrows. . . . (Low and inside).
Blob Bunn has a most efficient calendar on his wall. Everybody's

his lpana Smile ready for the Win- ner's circle. After the race, "Flippy" will don his cashmere overcoat with the price tag still on it, over a Madras dinner jacket (also equipped with price tag) and drink the win- ner's champagne from a pocket flash with a buckle on the back. . . .
Till next time, my beatnick boys, see ya' in West with my Bongos and Beard.

THE DECISION
"Cosy"
By Glen McCaskey
The Study Hall bell rings and everybody screams, dashes for the door, and tears out of the building as if it were a leprosy ward and not the beginning of Spring Vacation - everybody, that is, except John Cole.
The word has gotten arou nd that the girls will be down on front cam- pus at 8:30. Finally, the bell rings, and bedlam breaks loose as every- one scrambles out - that is, every- one except John Cole. He remains in his seat, staring straight ahead, as if pensively considering a momen- tous decision. Finally, because of the rarity of the occasion, he drags himself out of his seat and decides to go on down. He straightens his books, puts his hands in his pockets, and ambles out, looking as if he hadn't slept in a week. You almost yawn just watching him.
I think he affects the people a r o u n d him in t h e s a m e way•, b e - cause every time he goes to sleep in Study Hall, everybody close to him is either in the same state, or staring blindly ahead.
Thank goodness there is another side to "Catfish" which is completely different from the person depicted above. John's other self, or "Cosy" Cole, can be found on the baseball diamond any afternoon.
"Cosy" lives, eats, and breathes baseball. On the field, his speed is astounding, alertness amazing, and vitality unbelievably lively, as com- pared to "Catfish" Cole.
John is without doubt one of the most easy-going, well-liked and easy-
invited o v e r t o watch off the days. . . .
CHAPTER Ill in The
Romances of White Rose: Allen (right on the front porch) has added a new one to the list. He was seen walking "Pepper and Spot" (not
'Spot" the teacher).... Allen also has stiff competition to see who has the biggest harem. Mike Page is at a slight disadvantage because he
takes Physics and Trig, but he does have a fresh pork contract with Armour and Co.
There's a new nephew on second Main- noneotherthantheH.C.- still bucking for that 95 in Spanish?
NASCAR has begged Fido (four- ticket) Simpson to drive in the Mar- tinsville 500. To make the event really dashing, Simpson will drive in his $47 tassel loafers, wearing his green-tinted contact lenses topped by a Madras hat. The race will be driven with one hand - he will be using his electric tooth brush to keep
