TI QUIU-SIGMA'S COMING
Quin-Sigma dance
Page Hall,
Beginning at 8 o!clock, come one and all,
Bill Grattan and his orchestra will play,
So you can have fun,......
And the cirls will pay!
will be in
So, come on cals,
Bring your man,
Be a pal,
And do what you can,....
To put the dance over,
And to have a good time,
Don't let your man rove,
But keep him in line.
Dance with yvhom you want to,
Remember, it's up to you,
So have your program all fixed up,
And just save hima few.
And when 11 ofclock comes ‘round,
And the dancers begin to heave,
You should go without a sound,
And your evening wrap retrieve.
Then when the crowd comes ‘round and
shouts,
"Welre off to sco the sights",
You pipe up, "Wolre homeward bound....
Cause, remember tomorrow night!"
EXAMS ARE OVER
How did you come out in your exans?
Well, that's alricht, we all flunl: some=
time. But, have you héard this one?
"There was a suy in our school,
And wondrous dumb was he;
Caught cheating on a history quiz,
He lost his passing "D",
And when he saw the grade was lost,
With all his might and main,
He cheated on the make-up quiz
And got it back again." —
Shel pleseca neat. Exchange
HAVE FUN OVER THE WESKEND?
It certainly is a big reliof to
have exams over at last, Just three
more months of relaxation until it's
time to start studying for exams again,
Those few days of vacation cane in
handy last week. V.V., Josephine, Phyl,
Leah and Joan took advantage of it, and
spent one afternoon seeing Kitty Foyle,
and dividing a 5¢4 bag of candy, Ttts
lucky for Joan that we have such distin-
guished laughs in our midst, otherwise
she never would have found them,
Skiing was very popular with every=
one. If you looked around Iimicival
Golf Course, you'd be sure to soc some
Milnite stuck ina drift (probably head
first), Some of the experts even ven-
tured to North Oreek, via the Snow train
last Sunday. The sophomores were well
represented for Melba Levine, Betty Jane
Southwell and others, and Art Phinnoy
and company were there too,
Colleres appeared to be having
exams too, as everyone seemed to be home,
Dob Taft, Secley Tunk, Johnnie Finlz, Jean
Ledden, Martha freytag, and many others
- were home,
