Show The Diary of a Nickel Monday. Helped by a cigar today. Gamette had to have a Corina. Jarman took me as change for cigarettes and gave me to Tommy to send the team to L. A. Tom gave me to Mrs. Tom for the laundry. Mrs. Tom spent me at Keeley's. Tuesday. Harrington and a bunch of Chi O's traded a dollar for me. Jack matched Violet. Violet won me. Tom Egan gets me for a compliment he gave Violet. Tom has a hole in his pocket. Wednesday. Levison finds me on the floor. He puts me under a book at the Sigma Delt house. Thursday. Still under the book. Levison looked at me twice today. Friday. Coleman finds me under the book. He would have spent me at the Senior party, but changed his mind. Saturday-Coleman buys a pen with me. Hazel buys a bar and gets me with it for a quarter. Hazel plays fan tan with a soldier from Idaho at the Gamma house. He wins me. I leave the statei that night. Sunday-All broken up (into stamps for a letter and a postal). Back to Utah. Hazel weeps when she reads the letter. Maybe she recognized me. Think she did because he carries me near her heart. First time I've known about hearts. They beat fast. Our Prom Somewhere in the refined section of this our book, is a beautiful tale of the prom, unseared by the cynics. But as Poor Richard said, when society flies out of the door, the skeptic closes it. Anyway, we quote. Shafsky-I'm d-n glad I had a beer party that night. Ware-It was a hell of a thing. I'm broke for the year. Emily-My fellow didn't spend twenty-five on me. And still he crabs. Jarman-Nobody in the house had a chew. Braasch-I thought it was great. Well, what abont it? Says Hazel "Press" At a corner of the gym one dancing night after the game, was a reservation for all the publications. As Hazel tripped around the floor to the tune of "Rock Me to Sleep With a Brick," she casually caught sight of the "naughty placard." At every turn thereafter, as she was loosely flung about by the heart-breaker, Gene Sloane, she fixed her eye on that word. She tried to attract Genes attention to it, and failing, gasped. Encores came and went. At length she plucked up sufficient courage to reveal the depths of her soul. "Why not heed the instructions, Gene?" He did. Page Two Hundred Sixteen |
