41. 1 for you, Flossie, that Tracy Free-
man still has Jerry's ring.
From behind the bushes I have
discovered that Maggie Rief is
slowly but surely falling for Earl
Yeager, even though she claims
she only has room in her heart for
her "Jimmy." After all, a kiss is
just the start of things.
During my afternoon stroll near
the Chem Lab., I was startled as I
looked in the window and discov
ered Tom Mac Allister beating on
his burning sleeve. Somehow or
another he leaned over a Bunsen
burner. Well, you know the rest ...
My master just called, so I had
better "make the scene."
