NO LASS! ! ! By Otis Packwood Last Thursday, the desire of a true journalist plus the stimula- tion of whispered rumors of the women in Helena inspired me to accompany Eastern teams to the Sports Meet at Carroll College. The optimism of the victories to come, the hushed exchange of witty stories and the wry smile of anticipation written on the faces of some of the boys in the know contributed to the jovial atmos- phere on that weaving, rolling hulk of the Helena - bound bus. In the Capital City a somber air replaced the abandon of the trip. Helena was blanketed with ominous clouds. Rain had pre- ceeded us and lingered to wish us an insincere welcome. The track and golf teams would compete regardless of rain, but the base- ball would be cancelled if the clouds opened up. Bell's invention was put to good use and Friday evening's activity was graphically mapped out for Eastern boys and those lucky Helena women. Helena remained overcast as we rose to face the events of Friday. The teams clustered around in groups to await Coach Bjorgum's return. Oscar and the other coach- es had joined to inspect the field to see if it was fit for play. It wasn't; neither were the tennis courts, so back to Billings for Easterners. As the bus began to roll a car- load of Helena gals drove up with a great swishing of tires, their faces sad with disappointment. We waved—they waved. Alas No lass! Keep your eye on the guy who claims he is head of his house— he might fib about other things, too. MARLIN PAYNE Introducing the Staff By Shirley Baker This is the fifth in a series of articles introducing the staff of EMCOE. Eastern's \funny man,\ Marlin Payne, was born in Joliet, Mont- ana, \at a very early age,\ to quote him. He has done an out- standing job as Humor Editor of EMCOE and will be back to boost our paper next year. Marlin graduated from Bridger High School, class of '48. He is studying Pre-Law at Easter n. After one more year at our illus- trious institution, he plans to push on to law school at Montana Univ- ersity. Our Humor Editor is a very busy and talented young man. He is an accomplished clown, musi- cian, comedian, imitator and stu- dent. That infectious rhythm and styling at the piano you hear in the Cafeteria is a result of Mar- lin's nimble fingers. He placed second in the \Talent Quest\ held recently at the Fox Theatre. When Marlin was asked if he was interested in visiting a foreign country some day, this unpredict- able whirlwind answered, \Yes I would like to visit Wyoming some day.\ Ah, the Montana Chamber of Commerce will hire that boy. Marlin's ambition is to be a radio announcer some day. He is also interested in photography, music and the latest joke books. His engaging personality and fun loving disposition account for Marlin's popularity at Eastern. cS'arizEJ.. By Joy Starner With the end of the school year and the month of weddings loom- ing, Easteners found plenty to do this past week, in spite of the gloomy weather. Dorothy Dusapin was hostess when a group of Eastern's gal students, past, present and future, met at Rock's Restaurant for a spring luncheon Saturday. \Per- fect,\ was the way they all rated it. Also on Saturday, Grace Mc- Caskie was the envy of everyone for the beautiful gifts she re- ceived at a bridal shower given by Mrs. C. C. Richardson, Mrs. Ruth Thomas and Mrs. Dorothy Hucke, nee Bede. Some eight Eastern gals got quite a kick out of the ride out to 1040 Alderson, where the shower was held, in one cab for the eight. Sunday afternoon, Stella Clask found herself receiving the good wishes of everyone when Lois Kaltenbach and Helen Bagli en- tertained for her at a miscellan- eous shower. Stella was the guest of honor at another shower Fri- day afternoon. The guests spent the afternoon embroidering tea towels for Stella. Those they didn't finish will provide Mrs. Talgo (as of June 14) with enough leisure-time activity to keep her out of mischief for the next few years. Walt Hall has recently an- nounced his engagement to Joyce Nees. Both from Laurel, Joyce and Walt plan their wedding for August. Another recent engagement is that of Chuck Johnson and Betty. Chuck is going to the Universiey of California next fall, though, so they are postponing their wed- ding for another year. The speaker of the British House of Commons is a speaker in name only. He is not permitted to make a speech. Free speech in Russia means that if you're cut off the party line you hang up. Take If or Leave It By Payne Would you see your mind, look into the sky. Would you know your own moods, be weatherwise. He whom the weather disap- points, disappoints himself. \Papa what kind of robber is a page?\ \A what?\ \It says here that two pages held up the bride's train.\ \Hey!\ cried Satan to the new arrival, \you act as if you owned this dump.\ \I do. My wife gave it to me.\ There is no more fatal blunder- er ' than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living. Maid— \Shall I take this rug out and beat it?\ Man— \That's no rug, that's my roomate's towel.\ To himself everyone is an im- mortal; he may know that he is going to die, but he can never know that he is dead. Al Foster— I'm not myself tonight.\ Jackie— \ Then we ought to have a good time.\ \I see by the paper that nine professors and one student were killed in a wreck.\ \Poor chap.\ Few men are worthy of Ex- perience. The majority let it corrupt them. Baby Stork— Mama, where did I come from?\ What is true by lamplight is not always true in the sunshine. Anna Mae— \Oh Valley, you're too slow.\ Valley S.— \I'm afraid I don't grasp you.\ Anna Mae— \Yes that's just it.\ (, ■ .(s..4.1.2.141.4 ■ 11mailmatimatimat ■ timdlant=4 ■ 41.14.14...(Imatwatim.(, ■(■11■4,■(■(.■1■ 4mnt..14.1.11.11411.4.114,..45.11.4.1.4, I I at...4.4..4.4.4=4. ■ Au.t ■ li t■ A• 4•• ■ t.444...4 ■4=4■4■4■4■4■4■4■4.
