With a passion for horseback riding and a love for the desert sunsets and the wide open spaces, Miss Finnerty suffered slightly from claustrophobia when she first settled among our citrus groves. . . .Miss Doyle's astounding wardrobe and Southern accent made a much deeper impression on U. S. History classes than her theory on Nationalism. . . .We discovered that finger shaking Miss Highs bark was worse than her bite. It's just a front, kids, she's soft as putty. . . .Mrs. Hosick tried, vainly, perhaps, to prove to her worldly- wise seniors that ShakeSpeare knew something about romance and stuff, too. . . .A steadying link in the chain throughout the year was Mrs. McIntosh, always cool as a cucumber in soothing pastels. . . .Mr. Henry looked so repentant during his portrayal of the crooked judge in the crime prevention assembly we began to wonderebut we prefer to believe he was just self-conscious about his stage debut. . . .Miss Roberts raced her roommates home night after night to get the first peek into the mail box. . . .Mrs. Ceorgeis little funny faces and perpetual tidgetings with her rings became as much a part of American problems as her renowned blitz quiz. . . .We soon tabbed Miss Robinson HEfficient Betsyii after weid seen her in action on the annual ads. . . .Mrs, McDaniel grew so adept at applying leg make-up that we pleaded for a regular course in the subject. . . .We were sorry to learn that this year was Mrs. Byrn's swan song. Here's hoping she will enjoy her retirement as much as we enjoyed having her teach. . . .Biggest event of the year for Nurse Taylor was vaccination day. At last she could practice some of that stuff about fainting and shock. l191

Remember the plays, the cozy corners, hosts of happy moments, the glances, and the bewildered, frightened, anticipatory, naive. but interesting faces as we entered high school away back in 1941?. . . .We razzle- dazzled the mighty sophies out of victory at the annual football rally, but were sulphur- ous when they did not abide by the rules to remain quiet in assembly. There was not a frosh who did not know the school song. thanks to song leader, breezy Atvin Thrall, who so laboriously drilled us. . . .The first adventure in wackiness was when BiH Greer, Ellno Barnes, David Wood, and August MetZ In traditional style polished the fountain.
