Treasurer The Board of Education has had another year of successful administration. We are ever grateful to them for their helpful guidance and their constant effort to make ours a better school. Student Council Richard Lindner, President of Student Council by popular vote, opened the first meeting which was held on November 19. 1942. At this meeting Harold Wells was elected treasurer, and Eileen Conley, secretary. The other participating members are: Patricia Macllroy. Marjorie Siegwald, Rita Lindner. Alice Barker, Anthony DeJohn, and Richard Verbridge. First Row: M. Siegwald. P. Macllroy, E. Conley. R. Verbridge . Second Row: R. Lindner, R. Lindner. A. DeJohn. During the school year this organization has been busy instigating various activities among which were the Athletic Association Drive, and the Victory Drive, which was an effort to induce the students to buy more war stamps. Immediately after Christmas vacation, a letter was written to •Eddie” Walters to thank him for the entertaining Christmas program which he put on for the amusement of the students. On March 4, with eleven dollars, the proceeds of a movie given in the school auditorium, they purchased stationery, not only for themselves, but for their successors. Student Council climaxed its many activities by purchasing a Service Flag to fly with Old Glory,” with a star to denote each Clifton Springs boy who has joined the service since December 7, 1941. They did this, not only to show their loyalty to the boys of today, but to give thanks to the brave men of tomorrow who are willing to sacrifice their lives for our country.

SENIOR PLAY 1st Row: D. Lindner. R. Hall. S. MacDonald. B. Knauss. 2nd Row: H. Bloser, F. Lindner. R. Lindner. L. Gougcon. 1 Ins is a story of the youth who brings candy to his wouldbe mother-in-law, cigars to his wouldbc father-in-law. and shows himself such a paragon of virtue that the daughter’s natural tendency to love him is checked. An uncle detects danger for the romance and puts into Tommy’s mind a scheme to mend matters. This is to do something and get himself thrown from the house. Tommy succeeds, not only by seemingly repudiating his word of honor to his prospective father-in-law over a land deal, but also by certain unusual exhibitions of bad manners. Tommy finally clears himself of the insinuations against his character, and the girl, who has meantime nearly tied herself up to a young fellow of the go-getter t CLASS We Are The Future Wc are the high school class today The working class tomorrow. We are the soldiers of ohe hour, The leaders you will follow. We leave behind these high-school days And enter to the phase of life That tests our generation In midst of freedom’s strife. We'll man the guns and fly the planes That keep our borders free. We’re old enough to fight and rule Or guard the ships at sea. pe. is brought to happiness in Tommy’s arms. POEM = We'll build those planes and build those trucks Along with guns and tanks And if the army needs us boys We’ll swell its teeming ranks. We’re all prepared to fight and work As one and not as two. Uniting in a world at war To make it safe for you. Our infancy is left behind. We venture out to roam. We’ll all rub shoulders while at work. We’ll all fight for our home. Then when peace is once more seen And w'e are free of greed, New senates will be needed And capably we’ll lead. —Leo Gougeon
