S-is, of course, for sophomore. An individual in whom the sap is slowly rising. O-is the other things sophomores usually do instead of preparing their lessons. P-is for the pathetic looks you receive when you tell anyone you're just a sophomore. H-stands for the place all teachers, at one time or other, wish all sophies were. O-is for obstinate, Once we make up our minds, nothing short of an encyclopedia will change them. Then, we still have our doubts. M-is for mind. Most people believe this part of the anatomy is lacking in sophomores, but really we do have one. O-is for open mindedness. We approve of everything and anything. R--is for restraint, which you know all sophomores lack. E-is for the end of this, but not the end of this year's sophomore class, for the class of '38 will go on making for themselves a place in the history of Cyprus High School. just a Sophomore, -HARIQIET PARKS.

R REMINISCENCE A few days from now I'll leave high school-leave Cyprus. Never more will I sing her song as one of her students. It will never be with the same spirit that I go in and out of her class rooms. And what's more important, never again will I have the opportunity to play on one of her teams, or help to make one of her activities a success. But it will always be with the same fierce pride that I cheer her teams on. I'll always thrill to her song and name. I'll always sorrow when she loses and exalt when she wins. Now that I'm leaving, school-spirit takes on a richer and deeper meaning. Gone are old contentions and quarrels and only pleasant memories remain. So it was the other night when I stood alone in the empty hall by the trophy case. It was there, amid the memories of the past, that I realized what school tradition was. I heard Qin imaginationj the shouts of jubilant students, the clash of bodies in a game, and the jingle of bells. I saw presidents, cheer-leaders, and players parade before my eyes. I saw how they had all given their best for the school, and it was then I regretted how little I had actually done to build that tradition. So it is now, and always will be, that a queer tightness comes in my throat when I enter the doors. I know that I'll always get that same tingly feeling in my spine when I look at her trophies, or see the team come onto the floor to the blare of the band. I say these things now, as an exit speech for the benefit of the under-graduates. Cyprus has a splendid tradition. Fine boys and girls have made it such. It is not your duty, but your privilege to uphold that tradition and carry it on to new heights, As a member of a wonderful school, it is your right to do your best to make her better, so that at the time you do receive that diploma, you may also receive the satisfaction which comes from a job well done. -GERALD BOICOURT MY OPINION OF SENIORS Who treats us as though we were inferior, Who have the best time all year long, Who thinks that they are so superior, And life to them is just a song, Who try to boss us all the time? Until their average is determined? The Seniors. The Seniors. Why try their passing grades to get, Who criticize all we do, By smiling sweetly as they sit, Tell us what we should do, too, - In difiicult classes every day? Yet who are we sorry to see leave us? The Seniors. The Seniors. --MARGARET MCGILL iii Page Sixty-four X i N XV
