Dependable Service
Do you offer dependable ser
vice to your school—Can you be
relied upon to carry out the
work that you are assigned to
do. In most cases the answer
will be no, which does make fac
ulty members, student body of
ficers, or any person that has the
authority to assign work dis
gusted at times. When you are
put on a committee and do noth
ing about it until someone has
to push you along to do it, will
make a good example of unde
pendable service.
There are a lot of activities at
West Linn and to make anyone
of them successful each person
has to do his part. For example,
working on the school paper, the
deadline has to be made; the
legislature and cabinet commit
tees have to look into their par
ticular duties; the annual staff
has to get its assignments on
time; and the club members
have to cooperate to put over
their programs. Many more ac
tivities and classes require the
dependable service of all you I
students and after all, we have
student government installed in
our school and to make it suc
cessful we will have to do our
part. Why not start now.

DUST BOWL
By BETTY ERBEN
Seen around school...
Harold Ness giving a wonder-!
ful sales talk on an imaginary
car in dramatics. . . Lawrence
Morrison and Pat Osborne tying
each others hair in knots. Just
a couple of knots. . . Bill Bar
tholemew falling flat on his
face during a hail storm. . .
Peggy Jean McLure talking baby
talk to Russell White. Result—A
tiny piece of chocolate from his
cardy bar. . . The cooking class
turning out some awfully good
coffee cake. Just ask the hall
police on duty seventh period. . .
Connie Duyn blushing over an
English grade. . . Winifred Bux-
man getting awfully excited
about two gardenias. Say it with
flowers.- Will - - what’s his
name? . . . Gene Vinson saying
that liquid air tastes just like
alcohol. Connesiuer? . . . Bill
Buckles having a monopoly in
reading out loud in English.
Like to read pretty well, don’t
you Bill? . . . Feminine desciples
of the modern dance are longing
for the old fashioned kind, . . Or
a nice plaster cast. In the spring
a young man’s fancy. . . And
spring has come down hard on
Bob Sherman. The bug has bit
ten. Mel is a cute little bug, isn’t
she?
The Party Line
Spring has Sprung
S. B. élections are over now
and things are returning to nor
mal (?) maybe. . . Yours truly is
reminded of a story when speak
ing returning to normal. . . Here
it is: A recent visitor at our
fair institution stated that noon
hour at this grand campus was
certainly a bedlam. Then he
added, “By the way, do you
know where the word ‘bedlam’
originated?” When yours truly
confessed ignorance of its or
igin he gave the explanation
that there was in London dur
ing the 16th century an insane
asylum known as the Bedlam
asylum. The inmates there were
so noisy that admission used
to be charged for persons to see
the place. . . Draw your own
conclusions. . . A certain well
known student here was over
heard accusing another well
known person (he had a part in
the s. b. play) of taking a cer
tain young lady’s clothes. . .
Navy pins are the rage now—see
Mel McLarty or perhaps Dorothy
Schliess. . . Off again, on again.
That’s the story of a Hi-Y pin. . .
Also of a sorority pin but that
was off, on, off—permanently.
Wow
When Marian Nelson
and Betty Helsby get mad and
start telling things about the
other, wow is the only way to
express it. . . We always thought
Mr. Howard and Mr. Shearer
were sound, upright gentlemen
but after that skit they put on
perhaps teaching isn’t their des
tined profession. . . Add these
two to your list of gals who re
main faithful, Mary Jane Hill
and Lorraine Payne. . . Betty
Sturges declares she has her
mind (and heart) off—welt> you
know who. But we wonder. . .
