The Hy-Way Collage 3113 Battleground Ave. Just Beyond WBIG Transmitter Phone 288-1320 For Manufacturers Samples of Fashion Dresses and Sportswear BY JOHN TAYLOR A girl’s vocabulary concerning James Bond usually consists of “Gosh” and “Wow, what a man,” Perhaps I should say, most girls’ vocabulary follows this line. A boys’ vocabulary concerning Bond consists of “Oh, brother”, and “Aw, come on!” Some girls and most boys are too mature, or at least think they are, to appreciate the overdone dramatics in the James Bond movies. After aii, he must lose at something sometime. And doesn’t he ever meet a plain, homely looking girl? James Bond continues to get himself in Class A scrapes only. Fo,r instance, witness Doctor No on Crab Hey -Island. Bond seems to have a knack for meeting up with the worst villains that so ciety has produced. Another ex ample would be Aurie Goldfinger and his bodyguard, Oddjob. Of course Bond also has spec ial equipment to add spice to his life. A prime example would be the Aston Martin D.B. 5 used in Goldfinger. Between the bullet piroof shield, oil slick, smoke screen, machine gun^, ejection seat for tmwelcome passengers, and tracking device, the villains never really had a chance. Other special toys made for Bond to play with, included a briefcase with break down rifle, stiletto, and other accessories needed during a busy day for Bond. Though the stories about the fantastic agent 007 are exciting, they sometimes are a little too over done. Many times Bond is within an inch of having his life snuffed out when some fantastic occur rence saves him for further ad ventures. In the Spring a Young. BY JANE TURPIN In the spring a young man’s fancy turns to—posters! That’s right—posters, because it’s time for spring elections, and all the candidates for office are merrily sprintting about, slapping up theii* signs wherever there is an empty spot. And really, how could a man’s fancy not turn to thoughts of posters when he is constantly confronted by them in the most conspicuous manner. Take, for example, the Scarlet Letter approach to introducing a possible office-holder to the mass es. Can you imagine trotting down the main hallway to your next class and suddenly finding yourself face to face with a big red “A”? Perhaps this is just an attempt on the part of the candi date to instill within the on looker a deep, profound meaning. Or perhaps it just stands for apple, just like B stands for ball, and C for cat. (You remember— back in the first grade.) Then there’s the scientific ap proach to the matter in which gremlins (you know—those fat little green-and-blue men with the great big red-rimmed eyeballs and long pink hair) replace the Scarlet Letter. They are good for calming the nerves and produce the same effect as a liverwurst. mayonnaise, and sour pickle sandwich just before bedtime. Then there’s the Best Qualified By Neatness approach to the sit uation in which some idiot invar iably dresses himself in a long white shirt adorned with “Vote for Gertrude” and various cartoons depicting the transformation of life at GHS if Gertrude is elect ed. In this category is also the real test of a candidate’s aptitude for office—The Look What Irving Can Do For You approach to the student. The student voter is con fronted by propaganda instituted by masses of posters. One such poster state that this particular fellow, if elected vice-president of the school, will not allow fire bugs to plant bombs in the audi torium, will schedule such inter esting and invigorating speakers as Khrushchev and Charles de Gaulle (no more of these con servative types), and will prevent the hippopotamuses in the audi ence from yawning during the programs. Although some of the posters may appear to be bordering on the ridiculous, they are merely the result of friendly competition —of a bunch of nuts!

SYCAMORE STREET Phone 273-6617 Bond is not without his girl- i friends either. The list is as long as the Beatle’s hair. There was Honeychile Wilden, Dink, Tatina, Ramonara, Jill Masterson, Tilly, and that girl with the Flying Cir cus in “Goldfinger”. James Bond is obviousy the ultimate in secret agents. This new type of picture has hit big and will undoubtedly stay big. It appeals to a great deal of peo ple because it is most definitely a fast-moving type of story. In “Dr. No,” Bond goes to Crab Hey Island in the Carib bean to investigate the mysterious death of one of the Secret Serv ice Operatives stationed in Ja maica. Bond discovers something fishy gong on on Crab Hey Is land and, in his investigation, uncovers Honeychile WUder. After a few romantic inter ludes, both are captured by Dr. No. Their subsequent hair-raising escape is typical of Ian Fleming’s style. 4. Ian Fleming, the creator of James Bond, has excellent traits as a suspense writer. His James Bond books include “Moonmaker,” “For Your Eyes Only,” “Live and Let Die,” “Dr. No,” “Diamonds are Forever,” “Casino Royale,” “From Russia With Love,” and of course “Goldfinger”. Ian Fleming died this year, but his books should survive for quite R. a few years. Who knows? Maybe they will become a favorite boys classic like the “Hardy Boys”. They certainly belong in this category. Both have overdone suspense with skin-of-the-teeth escapes, and yet, somehow, they appeal to people. BY JOHN BRADLEY, et al.
