First Day

DBS presents our Miss Brooke starring E. Varden. Miss Brooks is a school teacher. To be specific, she teaches English at Madison High. Connie Brooks is pretty enthusiastic about her work, too, in fact, in her own words.

Although teaching isn't the most profitable career in the world, you must admit the hours are appalling. But there's always my secret heartthrob, Mr. Boynton. He's the biology teacher at school. and a sweeter, more intelligent scientist never brushed off an English teacher to play footsy with a frog. But he'll come around. Even a biology teacher must sooner or later

get a little biological. Meanwhile, I can dream, can't I? Yes, Connie Brooks can dream. Even now she's in the middle of the sweetest dream of them all. The one that comes right before 7 a.m.

You told me closer, Mr. Boynton. There. Now kiss me. Oh, how does that make you feel? That's what it does to me too. I'll show it off. Miss Brooks, you'll be late. Kiss me again, Mr. Boynton.

Miss Brooks, you have to go to school. For this, I don't have to go to school. Oh. Oh. Good morning. Well, that isn't my favorite land, lady. Oh, good morning, Mrs. Davis. What in the world were you dreaming about?

Oh, nothing much. Just the school. I was giving an English lesson. Well, from the way your lips were puckered, I thought you were taking a bugle lesson. LAUGHTER Better get up here. Today's the day you're supposed to find out about that new job as head of the English department from your new principal.

Oh, that's right, Mrs. Davis. For three years I've been waiting for that job. Three years of scrimping and scraping to get along. Now it's all going to be different. With this raise, I'll be able to run down to Miami once in a while.
