Colgate Dettlecream to clean your breath while you clean your teeth and help stop tooth decay and luster cream shampoo for soft glamorous Carussable hair bring you our Miss Brooke starring Eve Arden I'm once again for another comedy episode of our Miss Brooks written by Al Lewis Well the football season is just about reaching its peak in most of the nation's high schools
But somehow the fever seems to have bypassed our Miss Brooks who teaches English at Madison High School Yes, I'm afraid I've always been one of football's more passive fanatics. But as faculty advisor to the cheerleading squad, an honor foisted upon me some months ago, I was invited to a special meeting held in our principal's office during lunch period
last Thursday. In addition to Mr. Conklin, those present included his daughter Harriet, Mr. Philip Boynton, our bashful biology teacher, Walter Denham, the manager of the team, and Stretch Snodgrass, quarterback and captain.
