RandyStonewall [also as Stoney]Sue

When two evenly matched rivals—Randy and Stonewall—both claim the captain's spot on their hockey team, their rivalry threatens to tear the squad apart just before a crucial game against undefeated Bangor High. As tensions boil over on and off the ice, Randy makes a shocking decision that forces him to watch from the sidelines while his team struggles against rough, brutal opponents. Ultimately, it's a matter of skill, character, and what it really means to play the game right that decides who earns the respect of their teammates—and Sue.

The Principal Stands on His Head!

Ted the Tattler [Ted Tatler]JoePrincipal Davis

Ted the Tattler publishes an outrageous claim in the school paper: that Principal Davis will stand on his head in front of the school at noon the next day. When Principal Davis demands Ted prove the story or face expulsion, Ted becomes the target of a determined chase involving the football team, but his quick wit and misdirection keep him one step ahead. As the deadline approaches, the truth behind Ted's audacious prediction—and how a gossip columnist might actually *make* the news he reports—unfolds in this 1948 humor tale.

When Wendy Dayton and Sandy Thompson bring home a troublemaking duck named Herman, the chaos multiplies faster than anyone can control—fair-ground mishaps, damaged property, and a household in uproar over what to do with their feathered pest. As the Dayton family's patience wears thin and a final drastic solution looms, this 1948 humor tale spins toward an unexpectedly heartwarming turn that even Officer Joe O'Grady can't resist.

When Dinah Mite's date with Hammie turns awkward, her well-meaning Granny pulls out an old trick from the Gay Nineties—pagan perfumed incense—to spice things up. What follows is a chaotic evening of allergic reactions, mistaken phone calls, and unexpected visitors that turns the romantic evening on its head. It's a wild ride of slapstick mishaps as Dinah tries to salvage the night from one disaster to the next.

Justice Saw the Light
6 pp · Humor
BillJane PorterJoan HarmonJudge HawkinsSandra

When Judge Hawkins dismisses a young woman named Jane Porter for working without papers, he refuses to reconsider the case—until Joan Harmon decides to take on the judge herself, armed with his own published statements about justice and the American spirit. Joan's unconventional defense strategy forces the stern judge to confront his own contradictions, showing him that sometimes the law and fairness aren't quite the same thing. It's a scrappy 1948 romp that lets a sharp young woman outthink authority by taking it at its word.
