MARCH 15, 1968
Here I am at the top of scenic Maine West High School viewing the campus and reading the walls. Those 'art" students come up with the wildest projects.
A warning goes out to Don Behrens and Larry Aylword: You two have been "extagated" from seven period government class according to Joan Beyer. Better look that one up, fellows.
Arlene Hegg savagely attacked the virgin snow at Wilmot and paid with one broken ski. That was better than the broken kneecap beginner Penny Chase managed.
The WMTH office appears to be abounding with helpful students lately. Bill Conway did the quickest clean-up job in radio history before the arrival of a visitor. Go, Bill!
Joyce Prentice and company paid their monthly visit to the Chicago Greyhound Bus Terminal, but the homey smells of Des Plaines lured them back.
It seems Gary Kalas did a very unique impersonation of William Tell. During the emotional scene when William splits the apple off the child's head, Gary's expression really broke up the entire class, thus giving Judy Dadabo the hiccoughs.
One thing students would like to see is Mr. A. K. H. Cochrane and Mr. James L. Coburn show up in their "right-side-out and no-dirty-word" sweatshirts and gymmies. Let's show a little school spirit there!
Speaking of feet, how does Tom Bihari get in and out of his new Bushman shoes?
Inside information reveals that Mr. Anton Soucek is entertaining his students with select jokes and commentaries while driving.
Another example of the strong driving program at Maine West is Fran Sommerville. She has the Des Plaines police convinced that there are "daytime only" stop signs on the Maine West drive.
This month's "Keen Idea" award goes to Rhonda Sundquist as originator of the Birdie-girl masquerade. These girls with the gold mini-skirts can usually be located in the company of Miss Mae Jean Engen in her little cubicle (our home away from home). Ruff!
During the past few weeks Lorie Vogtrittor and Karen Saxon have been wallowing in peanut butter and jelly facials, while Tom Mattox has been indulging in some pretty strange parties. Gasp!
In conclusion I would like to say that this column could not have been successfully completed without the stalwart suggestions of several dogs around this school.
Good luck with the next Social Science Department quote of the week.
Bob Von Gyurcsy eats sugar-frosted nutsies!
