From her personal archives, Josefina Estacion submitted a well-preserved Forty-niner Cavitenan. In that 1949 issue, published was a wonderful article, where selected 49er's amplified on their personal opinions of "My Ideal Girl" and "My Ideal Man." Excerpts from that article are featured here. Compiled fifty years ago by our very own - Erlinda C. Pangco and Deseo G. del Rosario. |

My Ideal Girl Compiled by Deseo G. Del Rosario '49 |

She is the shrine to which nature sends us forth on pilgrimage. Her beauty is the glorious gift of nature; her virtues make her be admired; her modesty makes her seem divine; and her love is eternal. She is the balm of my comfort and the source of my happiness. - Hunfredo J. Gonzales |

Des submits one for the funny bone "Classmates: After forty-nine years, mag-kaaway pa rin" |
|
Palibhasa'y kapwa matalino, mahigpit na mag-kaaway ang dalawang dating magclassmates sa high school. After forty-nine years, nagkita uli sila sa elevator ng hotel after attending their conventions. One is now a Navy Captain wearing his all white uniform complete with nameplate and white officers cap. Ang isa naman ay isang Obispo na, attending a Bishop Conference, dressed in his complete church regalia including the Bishops hat, robes, and tukod with his name inscribed. Pretending not to recognize one another, ganito ang usapan nila: BISHOP: Mister Bell Boy, pakitawag nga ako ng taksi. NAVY CAPTAIN: Aba Misis, sa inyong kalagayan ay hindi na kayo dapat nag ta-travel. J |
