Funniest Memory

Funny was Mr. Zeuty turning around to the blackboard and, as he bent to pick up some chalk a big snowball hit the blackboard about three inches above his head.

Most exciting was seeing burning paper on the tar roof and Sr. Rosella came into the room. No one owned up to seeing anything. Solidarity.

After Play Practice

What was the funniest thing that happened?* Bear in mind that I remember a lot of fictional events. And, I thought the whole year was pretty darned funny. But one thing I remember (I hope) happened when we were rehearsing for our senior three-act play, "The Skeleton Walks."
Jack Barr played a detective, undercover in drag as the evil Dr.
Fersig's housekeeper. One night, after a dress rehearsal in the gym, we went out to Third Street with Jack still in costume -- long dress and white wig. He would stand under the streetlight, every inch the "little old lady," and whenever a car came by, the rest of us would rush out and "attack" him. As far as I can recall, we got absolutely no reaction from any of the passing cars, but we still thought it was hilarious at the time. We were easily entertained.
There were many other memorable events in our senior year -- some involving underage consumption of alcohol, or fireworks and the police
-- but I don't know that I'd rate them as "funny" exactly. So, I'm sticking with Jack in drag.
