eighth grader at Roosevelt Junior
High school and Joe's mother.
Mrs. Beatrice M. Papineau. are

"The Riebens can keep Puddles
all summer when there’ll be no
one on campus to look after him.
Then next fall during football
season he can come back to school.
Joe suggested that the sorority
houses that have been having
trouble with prowlers might take
him. He’s the best watch dog
we’ve had.”
