McLeod is beginning to look like a
dormitory. The boys have accepted
Hrs. James for their Housomother with
or without her consent, and .'jhfe has
conscripted them for cleaning; details,
xvith or vfithout their consenb. To
gether they have made the dormitory
more livable. The grass and shrubbery
out front haire been cut and trimmed,
and the trash raked up and carried a-
v/ay. Inside, the long worn rug has
been taken up in sections and the hall
has been mopped, Liany of the boys
seemed to like the idea and cooperated
by cleaning and brushing up their win
dows, and the veterans have announced
their indention to rejuvinate the par
lor. Congratulations to alll Now if
someone could talk the Business Office
out of a paint job for the inside, we
vrouldn't have to make apologies when
we have visitors,
Several of us went to Laurinburg
Tuesday night to v/atch Doc Blanchar d
and Junior Davis st.i-ut their stuff.
'iVe were already inside the theater
when we learned that the picture
wouldn't stai’t for thirty minutes.
We asked the doorman if we could go
to the drug store in the meantime,
but he explained that there was a
ruling forbidding such practice. That
was sufficient for most of us, but it
wouldn't do for Yates. He pulled out
his ever-handy la;v book governing vet
erans, turned to page 235, and showed
them that they couldn't lock a veteran
in any building. After Yates threatened
to call Eric Johnson and General Bradley
and have the building condemned, the
cashier told him he could have the Virhole
theater if he would just wait till the
show \vas over. He finally settled for
his money and his coke. After that wo
thought \ire could settle dovra and watch
Blanchard, Davis, and company throttle
Notre Dame; but he completely showed
himself again. A conmiunity sing pre
ceded the feature, and they used letters
as big as the four roses sign on Times
Square. So help me, Yates swears he
doesn't need glasses and that he is
making "A" in English, but you can't
prove that by me. He tried to show
himself by singing loud and jurabled
up the words. That's forgivable, but
he made such queer noises that the
manage.Tient had to stop the picture to
see if he was dying. As they took him
out, one fellow asked us where he was
from; wo told him Pembroke Indian Res
ervation
After arranging the furniture, win
ning a heated argument with the Deco
ration CoiTmiittec over the light effects,
and bumping around the danco floor for
five dances, I finally s.quirmed over
to the secluded corner and thought I
would be able to sit one out. But lo
and behold, upon arrival I found none
other th-^.n my opium den buddies draped
over the furiiiture. Huhl I wonder
if they were just resting their bones.
