The quartet was visibly affected,
by the. pathetic sentiment of the |
final song: “I wanna kiss papa
goodnight”.
The academic atmosphere was
restored by the “Great Flexible
Lecture.” In spite of competition
from the snores of the slide man,
(strangely enough his former col-
league, Mr. Soper) “Herr Schloane”’
offered some worthy comments on
art (“for heaven’s sake”) which’
were reminiscent of remarks made
in Library 1. Mr. Soper’s choice
of slides showed a total lack of
discrimination and appreciation of
the aims of the distingished lec-
turer. With mounting wrath, mark- |
ed by his “This is not Venus; this
is not even Elsie” in a heavy Teu-
tonic accent, the herr lecturer
fought on to the end and asserted
his ‘triumph with the aid of a pop
gun.
Mr. Frank’s score, now 75%,
was recorded on the thermometer
by Miss Lograsso’s wicked carpen-
ter’s rule, as two able vocalists
stamped onto the stage. Mrs. Man-
ning and Mr. Crenshaw achieved

might not “waken the dead in the
car ahead”, but the former queen
bee’s certainly could, though she
modestly said to her partner, “you
made me what I am”.
The already famous “Spring in
a Roman Garden” was followed by
“A Primitive Seed Planting Tran-
scribed into a Modern Mode”. Three
faculty-members, most masculine in
their: long underwear, thumped on
their chests above cowed women
but in the end were subjected to
female domination. Mrs. Landes’s
green watering can was replaced
by a flit gun for an appropriate
touch. The dance was made ef-
ments and skillful choreography.
