Dear Sir or Madam (as the case
may be),

the others. It seems They are in

Lacrosse Teams
Both Beat Penn
by Emmy Cadwalader ’52
The Lacrosse season started on
Wednesday, April 26, with a vic-
tory over Penn for both teams. The
Varsity won with the overwhelm-
ing score of 8-3. The goals were
made by the following: Wagoner
8, Stone 2, Perkins 2, Cadwalader
1. The Junior Vansity score was
6-2, with Ludington making three
of the points, and Dawes and
Bernheim scoring the rest. Both
teams played exceedingly well for
the first game, and for the fact
that we have so many beginners.
‘The Varsity teamwork and coor-
dination was noticeably good dur-
ing the game, and both games
were clean and open. The starting
lineups were as follows:

Desiree Sansespoir, Sophomore,
Well-rounded, Reveals Her Fall
shall be a sophomore Forever.
Now, I am as happy as the next
sophomore to shell out my dollar
instead of going to song meetings,
and thus I feel that I am a bona
fide member of the class. I under-
stand, however, that it is the usual
proceedure for sophomores to
eventually become juniors — and
for several years I have been look-
ing forward to enjoying the ad-
vantages of that opportunity. I
am still, apparently, Unready. I
have Overcut and I have not Ful-
filled the Gym Requirement.
I try to do my best in college. [
never could resign myself to being
a grind and/or creep, so I indulge
in what I consider a few well-
chosen extra-curricular activities.
For one thing, I belong to the So-
ciety for the Perpetuation of Use-
less Facts and Information, dedi-
cated to preserving all first-year
class notes. I am a rotating mem-
ber of the policy committee of the
Rockefeller Indoor Book Watchers
and Squint-Eyed Friends of Litera-
ture Society, which determines
strategy for getting the single
copy of each 1000 or more page
reserve book into the hands of at
least one student in the hall some-
time before each weekly quiz. I
have just been nominated for First
Convulsion of the Young Women’s
Coughing and Retching Associa-
tion. To insure my future, I am
taking a correspondence course in
underwater basket weaving. I also
subscribe to Quick.
The Dean’s ‘Office regrets my
frequent cutting, considerably aug-
mented by the time when I was
inadvertently abandoned in Tama-
qua by the geology field trip.
‘It is the Gymnastic Department,
however, which I most fear. I am
failing. My favorite sports are
Folk and Country Dancing and
Archery. The delightful gaiety is
gone, however, since I received the
notice that it would take me ap-
proximately three years to make
up my present Archery cuts. I am
|pursued by a terrible nightmare:
it is the battle of Agincourt.
Laurence Olivier shouts, for all the
world to hear, “Take Sansespoir
out of the ranks. She’s losing all
our arrows.” Gad.
Dear Editor, there is no escape.
Although I am a semi-wholesome
and fairly normal All-American
Girl, I am failing. I will never be
a junior. Now I know why They
don’t put numerals on our blazers.
Yours for more juniors,
Desiree Sansespoir
Bard’s Eye View |
specially contributed by
Ethel S. Tessman, ’50
Oh, for a lad who slurps his sour
And eats his peas with a knife,
Who picks his teeth with a gold
toothpick
And generally enjoys his life.
Fie on the lad with the rose-color-
ed air,
The: frail, pale fellow who moans
Of Schopenhauer and Kierkegaard
In low philosophical tones.
It’s shameful indeed to work so
hard —
To be so exceedingly wise,
When it’s plain to the world, or
to women at least,
That ’t will ever be, “Poor boy! He
tries!”
Give me a man in a checquered
vest,
And a loud, brisk, “How d’ja do,”
Who went to school in the Middle
West,
Whose words are mercifully few.
Were there a lad with a boorish
air
And an easy way of life,
I’d give him a hug and a right
smart kiss,
' And gladly be his wife.
