FRI., APRIL 14. 1961 ROGUE NEWS PAGE THREE Soph English Class Rewrites Fairy Tale Of course everyone has heard the story of Little Red Riding Hood. Mrs. Simon's English classes had, too, but they were not content with the old "once upon a time" version, and so they rewrote the story to suit their own tastes in numerous different styles. Little Red Rid ing Hood (King James Version) by Diana George. An it came to pass that in the days when mothers made goodies for grandmothers who were stricken in years, there came forth a young maiden by the name of Red Riding Hood. 2. And in the twentieth and third year, Little Red Riding Hood's mother did command her to go forth into the forest and deliver some goodies to her grandmother, which her moth er had prepared. 3. And behold, as she did travel into the deep forest, the extremely foul odor of goodies did attract the creeping thing and the fowl of the air. And they did flocketh unto her. 4. But alas, little did she know that among the creeping things, there was a wretched wolf. 5. And the wolf did approach unto her and saith: "Where go est thou, fair damsel?" 6. and she answereth thus: "Wolf, thou talkest too much; thou knoweth the script." 7. And so the wolf departed therefrom, and hastened to grandmother's home where Long Five Minutes I think I should write a let ter to the school board and find out why the clock always slows down the last five min utes before 3:30. Something really ought to be done about it. Everyone is making so much noise grabbing up their books and rattling papers that I can't hear the assignment. I probably wouldn't have done it anyway. Really, why docs the time drag so? Four minutes till 3:30. Maybe I could sneak out. No. The last time I tried that I had to stay till 4:00. This is really terrible. I think I'll pay a re pairman myself to fix that clock. Just three more minutes now and it'll be all over for anoth er day. Maybe if I don't think about it, time would go faster. Oh, it's just no use. That clock ticks so loud and so slow ly I can hear it with my ears plugged up, but now there are only two minutes left. I have so much to do, when I get home. Why can't the time go faster? Finally, at last, only li minute to go. Now 20 sec onds, 15 seconds, 10 seconds, 5 seconds, r-r-ring. Freedom at last! SAY YOU SAW IT IN THE ROGUE NEWS there, he did cat grandmother and then he hideth the sack. 8. Soon Little Red Riding Hood comcth to grandmother's house and knocketh on the door. A deep voice therein did say, "Who doth knock on my door?" And Little Red Riding Hood did answer saying, "Tis me, grandmother, one of thy descendents. I bringeth thee goodies." And the voice there in did eagerly say, "Enter thou, and welcome." (Slurpeth, slurp-eth) And it came to pass that when Little Red Riding Hood did seest her grandmother, she did not think that she was ex ceedingly handsome, for she had grown a mustache. Yea, she was exceedingly handsome. 10. But behold, when the wolf did grin at her with a hungry look upon his face, she knoweth then who it was and she was sore afraid. 11. And behold, when the wolf did try to get her goodies, she did strike him and it did smart. 12. But alas, this did not stop the wretched wolf, for he did then try to grab her and she did shriek, as loud as thunder. 13. And hark! A woodsman in a far-off forest did hear the fair damsel in distress and he earnest hence, and killed the wolf. 14. Then the woodsman and Little Red Riding Hood did dissect the wolf and scotch tape the grandmother back together again, and they did get a "one" in biology. Yea, the end thereof. SPRING PLAY CAST CHOSEN Rehearsals for "The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come," the Anniversary Play, began last week, according to Mrs. Lucy Susee, director. She added that the students participating in the play will become more excited and work harder as the date of presenta tion nears. Mrs. Susee stated that the backstage crew will get the props ready for the play. Students participating in the play expressed their views: "After a few weeks of this I will feel like a real Kentuckian. Old Tom feels that he 1 sget ting blacker every day. If you 've never seen an exciting play before, and you're looking for a clean, pure, exciting one, this will about top all we've ever put on." Coming fro the hills of King dom Come, I have very little to say, but even if I could say any thing, my English would be so atrocious the audience would not have sufficient mental ca pacity to quickly translate my grammar into proper English. Other than that, I humbly beg all to see the play." "I'se a lazy, sweet, an' shif- less li'l darky. So come an' see me tin the play." "I think it is going to be a smash!" SOPHOMORES COMPLETE PROJECTS As the end of the six weeks again came around, sophomores in Miss Christopher's English classes decorated the room by displaying their projects. The majority of the projects were concerned with the novel "Silas Marner," which all soph omores read. Karen Wood and Aleta Marion drew pictures of different scenes from the novel. Sharon O'Keefe cut pictures from magazines that illustrated the characters in "Silas Marn er." Rich Pierce, Paula Prescott, Frances Pentland, drew graphs of the plot of "Silas Marner." Jim Freeman made a pictorial map of Raveloe, the village where the novel takes place. Mike Cotton and Craig Pen nington, with the help of Clau dia Everett on art, made a small stage with a scene from the novel. They also taped a twenty-five minute production of the conversation from the scene. The scene took place at the Rainbow Inn. Terry McKinnis and Tracy Fontaine each dramatized chapter from "Silas Marner. Diane Fieguth made a chart comparing "Silas Marner" with "Romola." The scene where Silas finds the baby by his fire place was put into a shadow box by Jane Hennick. A plaster map of Raveloe was made by Elaine Neads. It has small paper nouses and twigs for trees. Not on the subject of "Silas Marner" is the bulletin board to the right of the door. This is on the subject of Shakespeare and includes many pictures and pamphlets. The board was ar ranged toy Paula Prescott.
