Page Six E M I T F April 27. 1951 Rain Continued from page five yankec. Hey y’all. Come here and let’s sing Dixie to Jo Ann until she forgets she’s a damnyankee.” While Dee led the singing, Jo Ann laughed. She told me later that she wished she had had the nerve to sing “Yankee Doodle”. Hut she didn’t. “G u e s s you’re initiated,” Dee said. “I should say so”, Jo Ann an swered. Do people in the south always sing that loud?” Dee snorted, “J’eople in the south are just like people in the north. Rich men drink Whiskey Sours and sing loud. Poor men drink beer and sing loud.” “Do you like beer?” “Gosh, yell.” "What does your mother s:iy about that?” “Oh, nothing. She doesn’t c;ire how much beer I drink.” “Oh.” “Does yours?” ^ “Does my what ?” ' ‘Does your mother c;ire if you drink beer?” “I don’t guess so,” The two were silent for a mom ent. Dee sat u)) and crossed her ; legs. She blurted, “My mother was a II. C. graduate and she graduated cum laude.” “'I'hat’s wonderful. Did she meet your daddy there ?” “Xo, she met Dad in a night club, and they ran away and got ! married. Say, do you know the new President ?” i “Yes, I do.” I “How did you rate meeting him?” “My mother is on the board of trustees and she introduced me to him,” Jo Ann looked at the but tons on her blouse as she talked. I Dee stared at Jo Ann carefully and pushed her hair out of her face again. “I.istcn Jo. Let’s you and me be friends—best friends I mean.” “But Dee, 1 don’t . . .” ! Jo Ann had gone into Dee’s ror>m and found her lying on the bed. “Pm sf;rry you lost the class ; president election, Dee”. “b'orget it.” “Tired” |o asked. “Xo.” Do \-ou have a cold?” ■ Xo.” “I just wondered. You were sniffling so—” “Hell, c.'in’t a person sniffle for ^ a.n\ reason but a cold ?” ' “Sure.” .}> -Ann looked at her. “You’re j crying”, she said. i >ec slammed the cigarette case on the floor. “1 can’t do it. I I can’t stay here. The alumnae | ccrcl; ry will never s:iv ‘What an: asset Dee Lawrence was to Halls- boro College’. Instead she will think, ‘Tsk, tsk—I remember the records say the girl’s parents I drink. I hate everyone who has a mother and father to bring them to college. 1 hate everyone w’ho doesn't have to go to college on a scholarship. I hate you.’ 'Fhe next day Dee had come down stairs, laughed, and told all the girls she was sick and damned tired of school. Slie left that after noon. Dee and Jo Ann were getting up from the couch. Dee was mumbl ing about how nice it had been as she walked heavily toward the door. “A’ou'll get wet”, Jo .Ann said. “I don’ mind. I'm used to it. It always rains.” Iv i9S GOOCH’S GRILL AND SODA SHOP for that “IN BETWEEN SNACK” 1 ELECTRIC SERVICE CO. And HUNT’S, Inc.
