LAWRENCE, KANSAS, SUNDAY, MAY 1, 1932
The depression reached its height in Lawrence at 5 o'clock Saturday morning when three Pi K A's were arrested on a bridge. All of them which they had abandoned for flowers.
Pilfered Flowers, Silent Witnesses,
As Three Pi K. A.'s Receive Fines
imagine times so hard that the Pi K. A's have to swipe the decorations for their spring formal. The reasoning that was followed is quite clear:
Grade school kids always polish the old apple by presenting their teachers with the first fruits of their mother's harvest. Any flowers that were left in the building over the weekend would be wilted, their beauty fed. Therefore why would it not be a kindness to the flowers, left to persil alone, to give them one big kick before they passed out. They might help to add a festival air to the party.

not why give it a break as usual and let it fade in the luxurious surroundings of the Pi K. A. house. A Chevrolet coupe was chartered and the boys took off for the Cordley school located at Nineteenth and Vormont streets.
The rescue was effected and the boys were in the car. The beauties were slowly stowed away in the rumble seat. But then a deputy sheriff put in his appearance. The flowers that were to enhance the party were given an extra thrill. They had the fun of being silent witnesses in a police court trial.
Gully? Of course the boys were guilty! Gully of aiding beauty. Gully of helping fair ones in distress. The case was plain, one owl. But some others used foam and bracelets.
high they stalked haughtily from the sordid rooms that contained the majesty of the law. They had realized the consequences if they were apprehended but duty lay before them. Their duty was done. Their honor vindicated.
But, Oh Hell, what a world. It was swollen to be a gentleman, and then again it had its drawbacks. They were out of their breath, decoration for the part were lacking.
Tough! Plenty tough! O Temporas
O Morel?
