Now that spring is definitely |
in the air 'along with the coal j
smoke and rain, we thought we;
should keep up with the_ brids and
print a few songs that remind us
of certain people around here-
The latest song-hit according to
Mary Jo, Doris Royster, Gladys
Goodman and Helen Cassel is the
theme song of the Montreat elec
tion, “Somebody Else is Taking
My Place.” Mary Jo, at least,
has an opening for a future job.
She was the “pin-up girl” of the
“M” Club-Varsity game. These
wartime zippers!
Rachel Laney and Susie Smith
have decided that “It Might As
Well Be Spring,” after their ac
cidents on slippery rocks in the
creek. There’s still many a slip
‘twixt the creek and the hip.

“Don’t Get Around Much Any
more.” Sprained ankles’ seem to
be contagious. So do majors. Too
many people are singing “Don’t
Fence Me In” in the key of A Ma
jor, which is not always a first-
class rendition. They wi'l prob
ably ^oon discover there are a few
things they “No Can Do.”
You’ll never hear Mary Kath
erine Kell singing “No Letter To
day.” That girl definitely has a
pull with the postal system.
Most of the Freshman’s grades
this quarter will be down “South
of the Border” line, due to Fresh
man Fiesta. At least Miss Hoyt
won’t be singing, “I’m Walking
the Floor Over You” any more.
The cafeteria reminds us of
“Always”—a line, with Miss Hen
derson directing “Sweet and Low”
and Ida warbling, “I Want A Man
of M;^ Own.” The menu will
probably be “One Meat-ball.”
“I’m Always Chasing Rain
bows” describes the w'eather late
ly. Everyone is inclined to mut
ter “Give Back My Boots and
Sa—” well, boots, anyway. Did
you know fhat Doris Printz lost
fifteen pairs of shoes somewhere
in Alba ? No wonder she goes
around sighing, “Shoe, Shoe, Shoe,
Baby.” “Time Waits for No One”
and here comes that editor again,
so “I’ll be Seeing You.”
—Cornelia.

“It might as well bo Spring”
for everyone’s got “Hey” fever.
But, into each life some wind
must blow, because the hair’s be
ginning to fall. Until snowy
weather comes. Let it storm. Let
it storm,-Let it storm! “Write in
”our own back yard” and tell
Casey to “Dance to the tune of
.A.lexand m’s Ra;i -Time-Band.”
“You won’t be .satisfied until
you” “get measles” now that
vou’re “in the mood.” “Tempta
tion” runs hand in hand with
“jealousy.” “Night and day” un
til you get them.
If you’ve seen “people are fun
ny’i (Pete Peter.son and Kay Bry-
,snt) using some “Montreat Pep
and Go” saying “I don’t want no
more of Montreat life,” ask them
if “this is the way they wash
those windows” “Sunday, Mon
day or always.”
“There’ll be some changes
made” in High School next year
but the senior's say, “I should care,
it makes no difference now,” un
less “Irene” “gets a Zero” today
and has to stick to “Reading and
Riting and Rithmetic,” not for
just an hour, day or year but “Al
ways.”
It’s been a long-long time since
the long week-end but “My Bud-
dydy” and 1 “Dream” “together”
“Because” “We’re Homesick, that’s
all.” All we need is a “Chatta
nooga Choo-Chod” that goes,
“take it easy” and I • won’t fence
you in.
If you’re a “Little on the Lone
ly Side'’ look to “My Blue Heav
en” and “Twinkle, Twinkle Little
Star.”
