THE KILT
October 8, 1957


A LOT OF MR. KENT'S PUPILS ARE busy drawing their dream houses. Dreams are the stuff most of these houses are made of. No contractor in his right mind would undertake an estimate on them. Incidentally, Mr. Kent is a contractor in his free time, and it is just possible he gets quite a few ideas from his pupil's fertile imagination.

HAVE YOU NOTICED THE PIGTAIL SET beginning at Glenridge? Some of our most attractive ninth graders are sporting these fetching braids. JEANNIE JONES and JUDY TEAGUE have the features and personalities to get away with them.

DANCING IN THE PATIO PROVED to be very popular with our more contented couples at the Student Council Dance. We think it would be a dreamy idea to design a super patio between the second and third wing - complete with a poured concrete dance floor, flagstone promenades, and attractively planted flower bed. Benches and umbrella tables would make it super. How about some ambitious organization getting to work on the idea?

WE'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE "B" LUNCH shift has it all over the "A" shift for good manners and a fine display of the old Glenridge Spirit.

WHICH OF GLENRIDGE'S MUSCLE MEN stormed the KILT office last issue because their names didn't appear in that issue? Could it be you fellahs have grown fond of the sight of your names?

WE HEAR SOME OF THE BOYS are having a hard time justifying their statements on the Going Steady Survey. A few girls thought they were going steady with boys who said they didn't go for the idea. There's nothing like going steady with a two-faced fellah.

WHAT TEACHER WITH THE INITIAL "A" was seen crunching on a large-sized root beer float last Friday after school?

WE HEAR P.C. HAD TO LEARN THE hard way about the proper care of thermometers. She spent a whole lunch period washing and sterilizing all the thermometers used in the Home Nursing Class.


IN VIEW OF ALL THE PENALTIES GIVEN at the Memorial game, why don't they call it - "Drop the handkerchief?"

WE THINK THAT TOWEL BUSTLE JOHNNY CASH wears is fetching and very practical.

WE WONDER WHY THE CHEERLEADERS FOLLOW the coach and team so closely. At our first game Bob Mosher reached for a player to send in, and almost got a cheerleader instead.

WHY TEACHERS GO CRAZY DEPT.: Teacher: "What is the Mayflower compact?" Student: "A new product by Revlon."

WE KNEW THE WATER LEVEL WAS WAY UP, but seeing that fish go gliding across the football fiend really shook us. Wasn't the Half-time Show cute?

NICE TO SEE SO MANY OF OUR ALUMNI showing up for our games. We saw Loralee Smith, Judy Duckworth, Connie Kelly, Bob Sutphen, and the mighty Mike Mosher in the stands.

DID YOU NOTICE MARNY VAN NYMEGAN cheering like crazy every time Number 10 did a good job at the Memorial game? Wonder why?


DID YOU SEE OUR TREMENDOUS GOLDEN LION donated by Mr. Row to our growing collection of lions? He'll make a great addition to our games, but we think he needs a cap and tartan to really belong. Won't some accomplished student volunteer to dress him?

HAVE ALL YOU LION FANS MADE ARRANGEMENTS for attending the Lakeview game at Winter Garden. Don't let our side of the stands be empty! Arrange for carpools, go by bus, walk, if necessary, but let's support our team!
