Spot Shot of the week:
Wouldn’t the dear public like to
know why Louie Lee Hinds brings
an apple to school every day?
We wonder why the West Point
uniform worn in “Mr. Skitch” was
so attractive to Virginia Lehmann.
Bill Nicholas has decided that
love is not the sweetest thing.
The editor of this paper should
blush. Ask him about the incident
Wednesday when C.T. tried to get
her purse from him.

Is Charlie Adams the reason for
Dorothy Boatwright’s giving that

Since Dan Moses hypnotized
William Conway last week, Mr. Con-
way has gone around with a very
red face, for he does not yet know
what he said during that state of
passive concentration, mental dis-
order and moral failings.

The members of the Cowboy
Club were in no peaceful mood
during their last meeting; and
desiring to do something notori-
ous, they protested the behavior
of secretary William Conway and
passed on him the ban of im-
peachment. However, when tears
began to gather in the eyes of the
secretary, the Cowboy’s hearts
were filled with compassion, and
in a sudden shifting of sentiment
they reelected him to his former
position in the club.
Some evil spirit must have seiz-
ed the boys again, for only a few
minutes later they were as rowdy
as ever, and the club ejected Clay
Puckett, the noisiest and rowdiest

Did Starley Alford have to walk
home after receiving his black
eye? He’s sure to have a different
story.
The charming queen who reigns
supreme over these stately ivy-
covered halls now aspires to be-

It seems that Naomi Childers is

stand how any girl could resist
his pleasing personality or his
charming, winsome voice.
chair,” said Moses, “clasp your
hands, gaze at your thumbnail,
and think of nothing but sleep.”
Conway obeyed, and Moses, sitting
in a chair a few feet away, re-
peated slowly and in a convincing
tone of voice, “You are slowly going
to sleep; in a moment you will be
fast asleep; you now feel as if you
are going to sleep.” In a moment
Conway’s head began to nod, his
eyes slowly closed, a far away ex-
pression came on his face, and he
fell sound asleep. The members,
skeptical at first, now smiled and
expressed their surprise.
The monotonous droning of
“sleep, sleep, sleep” soon ceased,
and Moses repeated two times,
“When I count three, your fingers
are going to wiggle.”
sharply he counted,

John Kercheville follows the old
saying, “Variety is the spice of

Kleyboecker and Bloxie as his
latest favorite.

The program committee appoint-

proceeding meeting secured the
services of Dan Moses who hypno-
notized William Conway.

Everyone stared fixedly
at Conway’s hand. Little by little
the fingers began to twitch, as if
he were a sleeping man knocking
gnats of his fingers. “Your fin-
gers did not twitch enough, “Mo-
ses said. “They will twitch again,
more violently next time.” Again
he counted, and this time they
wiggled like the fingers of a pliano
player. The members smiled at
one another in pleasant surprise.
“Now, said Moses, “forget about
your fingers. Your hands are clasp-
ing tighter together.” Slowly Con-
wasy hands clasped together like
the jaws of a vice. “Your hands
are locked tightely together. Try
as you may, you cannot pull them
apart. Now try.” Gradually the
hands began to twist, the muscles
tightened, and his face revealed
his effort to pull them apart; but
it was all in vain. Yet, as soon
as he was told to pull his hands
apart, they fell apart with ap-
parently no effort.
Since twenty minutes had elaps-
Members of the Adda Dabba
Pouda Sorority were entertained
with a military skirmish at the
home of Lois Mae Reidner Feb-
ruary 24. Mary Louise Weyman
and Lois Carpenter were joint
hostess at the entertainment.
Various games pertaining to the
life of George Washington were
played. The tea table was beau-
tifully laid with lace a cover. A
a basket of red carnations adorn-
ed the center of the table and
four red tapers were on either
side. Phyllis Wegner, president of
the sorority, cut the cake, which
represented a log from the cherry
tree of George Washington. Fran-
ces Burnett presided at the punch
bowl.

ed since the time Conway had first
fallen asleep, Moses told him that
he would slowly wake up, that he
would have no ill effects from the
hypnosis, and that when he waked
up, he would have a ravenous ap-
petite. Next Moses said, “Wake
up slowly,” snapping his fingers
and clapping his hands. Gradual-
ly Conway’s head rose erect, his
eyes opened, and he was wide
awake.
To gratify the curious onlookers,
Conway answered, “The last thing
I remember before going to sleep
was Dan saying ‘You’re going to
sleep!’ Then everything went
black. I don’t know how long I
stayed that way. I must have pass-
ed into a lighter sleep later on,
because I remember when my
hands closed tighter together. It
seemed that when I was told my
hands would tighten, they just did,
and the more I tried to pull them
apart, the tighter they became. I
feel fine now, but Gosh; I feel
hungry!”

newly-elected Secretary Clay Pu-

minutes which were fraught with
countless metaphors and numer-
ous pseudonyms.
President Eitt read a note of ap-
preciation frol ast week’s honoree
Naomi Childers who sent the club
a luscious pie. Barbara promised
to do the same thing. Now wasn’t
that nice? Eitt appointed Walter
Lehr and Jiggs Parsons to make
an effort to revive the plans for
that long promised social. Star-
ley Alford announced that four
hundred thirteen essays had been
submitted in the Essay contest
and that the winner would be
announced in the near future,
that is, as soon as he has read
the essays.
After the honoree had been
spectacularly introduced by Pie-
man Puckett, she made a speech
and dedicated the pies. Note: the
pies were then immediately eaten.
