LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY, WEDNESDAY, APRIL I,

Alumni Raise ’ell

On the night of Feb. 27, 1953, I;
walked down the steps to the rec—~

room only to find what I thought
would be a nice party, the center of
a brawl.

Willy Rouse and Jack Congleton
were throwing sandwiches at each
other, after claiming they tasted
like poison. It isn’t that the hard-
working sandwich makers minded
the insult, it was just the idea of
throwing them. It was okay though,
until one just happened to miss
Willy and plop in Miss Anderson’s
face. I seem to faintly remember
“Gracie" trooping over everyone try-
ing to catch “Jello." From then on,
at intervals during the night, sand-
wiches, people, and cokes were upset
as Grace chased Jack up and down
the steps and through the room.

As I slowly progressed farther into
the ring, I saw in one corner, Frank
McVey and Virginia McFadden
wrestling to and fro on the floor.
I had never before realized just how
strong "Ginny” was. She had Frank
down under the mighty strain of her
muscles and Frank was yelling for
Robert as loud as he could. But in
another corner Robert was hooked

by Mrs. Honaker, who was telling
him how she had caught her hus—I;

The wedding has been set for the
day after the semester exams. It
will be followed by a reception in
the school cafeteria. at which they
will serve “croessant” and "la creme”
with their “un ocuf" on “16 lait".

The bridesmaids will be Miss
Anna B. Peck, Miss Marty Shipman,
Miss Almy Carl, and Miss Maggie
Roser (who will wear strapless tight

artificial weeds composed mostly of
dandelions).

The flower girl and ring bearer
are to be Gracy “Lacy” Anderson
and Petey “Sweetie" Kemper. Gracy
will wear a short frilly organdy
dress of pale pink. Petey will don
his new suit made up of the natural
straw short pants and coat. Every—
one is expecting this sweet couple
to simply steal the show.

The ushers have been picked from
the “Rebel’s” friends and are to be
Robert McMeekin, George Foster,
Dickie Queen, and Little Rock. They
are planning to carry the brides-

Students Are Models of Behavior

The students at University High

deserve great credit for outstandingI
perseverance in spite of seemingly
insurmountable odds. In spite of all
discouragement to maintain good
conduct and good study habits, U—
High’s students are models of be-
havior and scholarship. The visitor
to the hallowed halls of U-High is
shocked to ﬁnd the halls death-still
between classes. Students quickly
find their places in class and resume
deep study over books four inches
thick.

The situation in classrooms is
abominal. Teachers sleep, make
rude side comments to sincere stu-
dents, read Miss Anderson‘s fabulous
funnybook, “The Loves of Tarzan”,
or draw caricatures of the students
on the board. Hard- -working stu-
dents study four hours every night
in spite of the teachers' refusal to
"assign homework because, “I don't
have time to grade papers."

Extracurricular activities are nil.
U-H i g h ' 3 students, conscientious
about study despite the discourage-
ment offered by teachers, don't find
time for any extracurricular activi-
ties. Other schools sem to find time
for such frivolities as selling pro-
grams, working on the annual,
senior play, All-State Chorus, track,
baseball, and swimming. All U-High
students, however, agree that we
cannot take time from school work
for such nonsense.

=U-'Hi Students To Go

To Regional Festival

By Dangerous Field and Mean Alex

Mary Lynne Davis was unable to
read her poem Waiting for the
Dentist, due to a nervous breakdown
incurred by 15 minutes in the wait-
ing room of Doctor Drillem, promi-
nent Lexington dentist.

Elizabeth Clark is having trouble

‘ finding spare moments in which to

practice her reading A Man Is a
Dog’s Best Friend, as she is very
busy with her campaign for dog-
catcher.

Nancy Brown read Seeing Things.
The judges’ only advice to her was
that she consult an eye-doctor.

The prime. donna, Miss Sonja
Lunde, had not been feeling up to
her usual self. and was absent dur-
ing the day of the try-outs, but was
able to drag herself out of bed to
try out. Due to a slight roughness
in her throat, she found she was un-
able to read, but played a recording
of her faultless rendition of The
Crowning Hour. It was found to run
slightly over time, but Sonja believes
she will be able to cut out the last
hour and a half.

Laura Russell and Ann Dalnger-
field feels very lucky to have ad-
vanced to the regional contest with-
out competition as they would never
have been able to beat anyone else.
Miss Russell is going to do her
version of a 33 r.p.m. record played
at 78, and Miss Daingerfield, with
her great slaesmanship is winning
more and more friends for Plunkett’s
Pink Pills for Pale People.

Judy Horton has not yet been
able to read her rating sheet. It is
still drying after the thorough wet—
ting it received from the tears of the
judges during her dramatic recita-
tion of Deer Son.

Peggy Cowgill wasn’t rated by all
the judges. One of them, who had
apparently been napping, awakened
just in time to see Peggy looking at
her and loudly crying “Fool”. It
seems that the judge thought that
Peggy, who was reading The Fool’s
Prayer, was calling her to task for
sleeping. In any case she has not
been seen since.

Several other people advanced to
the regional contest without com-
petition. Reba Lewis, entered in
public speaking, will speak on “The
Maximum Roofing Plan in Ken-
tucky.” In interpretary reading,
Shirley Johnstone will read The
Frisco Fire, which shows what hap-
pened to Mrs. O’Leary's cow after
she escaped from the Chicago blaze.
Doing dramatic readings are Bar-
bara King, who will read a cutting
from Our Hearts Were Young and
Gay, and Shirely Cundiff, who will
read a cutting from Quo Vadis?.
Both girls seem quite adept with the
knife. Barbara Richardson and
Buddy Willis are entered in radio.

ned to compete in this division, but
she didn't feel that she had had

Exchange

By Ima Beerbarrel
Hello! Happy April lst to you!
We have just received the latest

ipapers from Henry Clay, Lafayette,

and Lexington Catholic.

In these papers from the other
Lexington high schools, it was stated
that U-Hi
school in town . . . and even in the
state. The students of these schools
are “just dying to come to our
school.”

They have heard the most mar-
velous things about U-Hi. These
students would love to have a school
just like ours is, where the water

fountains exude three flavorswcher- 1

ry, strawberry, and lemon; the es-
calators and elevators are deﬁ—
nitielly ultra-modern; there is no
homework, no teachers; no books
(heavens, a school?!!); classes only
two hours a day; and among other
things no required classes. Gosh!!!

Thanks loads, Lafayette, Henry
Clay and Lexington Catholic. We
wish you could enter our school, but
since you can't go right on being
jealous of us.

Y-Teen Basketball

Team Begins Season
By Adolph Ruppsell

The Y-Teen basketball team be-
gan its season with a practice game
against Henry Clay in the Y.W.C.A.
gym. The game got off to a mag-
nificent start with Coach Shelby
Linville sending in his six best
hustlers. (Coach Linville consented
to be the team’s coach during the
tournaments). The game however,
was delayed because one of the
referees was seriously injured. The
incident has since been proved an
accident, but Peggy Cowgill was
taken into custody by the city police
on charges of assault and battery.
Ann Cornell, another U-Hi star, was
also arrested on charges of immoral
conduct. Her shirt was so long that
her “pedal pusher-s” were unable to
be seen and several people were left
with the wrong impression.

The game resumed its pace again
after the delay, with Jane Cole and
Lucy Sharp making thirty points
apiece in the second quarter Betty
Honaker, another leading scorer, was

suddenly yanked from the game by»

the coach. He stated later that it
was because she had become ad-
dicted to “coffee” and it was slow-
ing her game down.

Probably the high point of the
game was when Nancy Boggs missed
an easy crip shot and Henry Clay
recovered the ball, and tied the
score. Right after this, the game
was delayed again while they car-
ried Barbara" Harper out on a
stretcher because she had almost
been chocked to death by Coach
Linville’s towel while she was sitting
next to him on the bench. The
game which began at 4:30 pm.
ended at 8:00 pm. U—Hi won by
'13 points.

with it until the debt is paid.

couldn’t bear to see her without it;
and then too, if we were robbed we
wouldn't lose so much.

PERSONALITY PARADE

By Ema Nmarti Tbryan

Barbara Roberts

Barbara “Swifty” Roberts was
chosen as the subject of this column
because of her notorious conduct,
and well known popularity in the
underworld. She entered U-Hi in
the first grade and remained until
the sixth. She re-entered in the
seventh grade after expulsion from
the California Reformatory for Im-
possible Cases. She has been an
inmate at this institution for eleven
years. She is now a senior student,
the highest form of human intelli-
gence, unsurpassed in recognizing
their own ability.

“Swifty” has a variety of hobbies.
One of which is collecting unusual
rocks which she plans to use for
breaking window panes next Hal-
loween. Another of her hobbies is
painting. Her pictures are very
beautiful and realistic, if you can
figure out what they are. Several
of her friends have become so in-

t‘terested in her art that they have

gone crazy looking at her work. One
example is Tommy “Is everybody
happy?” Prewitt.

Heading her list of favorite foods
are pickled pennies, pig pie, and
powdered pound cake. In the record
department, she prefers “0h For
That Saturday Night in the Greasy
Spoon Saloon”, and “I’m My Own
Granpaw”.

Attention, boys! When you send
Barb a corsage, be sure that it is
dandelions scented with one, fra-
grant corn flower.

When asked to describe her ideal
boy, she quickly replied that he must
have a nose like Jimmy Durantee, a
voice like Donald Duck, the build of
Jerry Lewis, eyes like Eddie Cantor,
and hair like Lassie. There is bound
to be some such creature within the

walls of this building, so be on the
lookout and please notify “J. Edgar”
Roberts or your local F. I. I. I.
(Father Isn’t In Inc.) for further
identification.

While an inmate here, “Swifty”
has been associated with numerous
gangs and clubs. At present she is
Ass’t Blackmailer of a nationally
known newspaper, The U-Hi Lights.

She is also a member of two famous
honor organizations for ex-cons Who
have gone straight, the Bet A Lot
[ Club, and the National Ornery So-
ciety. “Swifty” is a member of the
Mask and Gavel Gang, too. She re-
ceived this honor because of being
voted “the girl most likely to never
stop talking” .

As Art Editor of the Annual, she
has prepared many masterpieces to
be printed over the pictures of the
underclassmen (the lesser of two
evils). Another of her outstanding
qualities is her beautiful bass voice.
She is a member of the Ky. All State
Chorus, in which she appm
from the left every night rt'at
local burlesque theater She was
also elected President of the Little
Cowcallers because of her musical
voice which outdrowns everyone else
in the Choir.

At this time we would like to con-
gratulate Barbara “the moll” for her
notorious conduct in the field of
Dale (remember that hayride last
fall?), and wish her a safe journey
to Florida on the 4:30 freight, which
she will catch as soon as all the Y-
Teen dues are in, and she and all
the other officers have sufficient
funds for the trip.

The court will be composed of the
most attractive and popular students
on the campus. The boys will be
