MARY’S lOlVS' j SPRING FEVER HITS AGAIN By Harriet Dill Something happens to girls when spring first begins to show its face, especially at a girls’ school. There is a restlessness, a desire to break free and to ex perience new adventures. There are certain signs which indicate whether someone is in fected with “spring fever”: (1) •Bodily activity increases in class. Students are seen biting nails, changing elbows and spastically kicking their legs. (2) The stu dents take on a glassy-eyed ro mantic mood. They play old rec ords, stare absently in class, and seem generall.v tearful and indif ferent. (8) The sudden concern with appearance is another indi cation that spring is coming. Girls of 130 lbs. begin dieting down to 110 lbs. in order to wear bikinis. Many begin to wear make-up, to comb their hair, and—more dras tic — to shed their sweat shirts and long socks. (4) Probably the symptom that distresses the fac- culty the most is the students’ lack of concern for studies. It becomes increasingly harder to concentrate when birds are sing ing and the weather is warm. There is no cure for “spring fever.” We must live with it and try our best to contain it. Un fortunately, “spring fever” start ed as earl.v as September for some —or should I say most. Ves, even in the day of our first parents there was a forbidden thing. As civilization progressed so did the number of things “not- to-do.” Each country town, in stitution, and family has its own particular list of NO-XO’S, and we know too well that St. Mary is by no means an exception. The Handbook presents us with a writ ten law to which everyone ad heres. (Admittedly there is al ways a dissenter in the world.) However there also exists an un written law. To my knowledge no one has as yet attempted to compile these tempting, but very naughty things which a St. Mary’s lady should never do. So for your edification I will now endeavor to do so. A no-no is a coughing spa.sm in a required concert. A no-no is skipping chapel 23 times straight. A no-no is rain on May Day. A no-no is breaking throusrh Miss R’s “Do Not.” ^ A no-no is praising George Wal lace in front of Mr. Roberts A no-no is telling Dr. Morrison that you do not even own an Atlas or Dictionarv.
