And all over the nation this scene is being duplicated as thousands of high school students graduate to cli- max thirteen years of learning. How fortunate we are to be in America where we have the oppor' tunity of acquiring an education. We are introduced to the twentyfsix letters of our alphabet and learn to mold them into hundreds of words and use them to express everything we encounter and feel within us. We learn to read, and arc transported into a world that an illiterate can never know. Since we know how to read and write we can study other subjects, and knowledge is absorbed by our eager minds. Reading can also give us relaxation, for we have the world at our fingertips. Books 'can transport us to the world as others knew it. We witness the building of Egypt's pyramids, see the games in the Colosseum, and march with Napoleon. The history and knowledge of the world is ours for the asking. While at school we do more than learn from books and after graduation a and we are with the school. Cur UIOYC than teac Own ways, they GUI' surely endeavor to The years face a peace.

Such is the case of Russia. The Stalinist regime control of the country and for years has Struck f ar into the hearts of the people. Some ' if . . . years ago an attempt was made to industrialize l has assumed, the government seized much of the the farming masses. The result was ion, and to add to this hundreds of resisted were taken to their slaughter g death in labor camps.

In many countries young peo' Russia and crops from ml1SS st lI'VH those who or to a livin something i grams and youth is ma, extensive re ple must work soon after they are old enough to walk so they can have one or two meals a day, and perhaps meat once a week. When we hear march- ing, we gather that a parade is near, while in a dictatorship it can mean death or imprisonment because you are suspected . If we but heed a few simple laws, designed for our own good, we can do pretty well what we please. Then war comes: and mothers watch the sons they still think of as little boys go off to be killed or maimed. We say it must never happen againa till the next time. We have tried to prevent war, even whole' heartedly at times. The League of Nations was a joke, but the U.N. can be successful. But we need much more than the U.N.-we need God. His 10 Commandments can deliver us from the horrors of war. If we followed them there could be no wars because wars are the outgrowth of greed and hate, and the Commandments tell us to love our neighf bor and not to want the property of others. There can be no lasting peace so long as people are evil. Everyone must abide by the Commandments so that the peoples of all countries love their neighbors, If everyone practices the 10 Commandments and bears in his mind that he must do unto others as he would have them do unto him, the time of strife will end. And all this is not impossible, for the subjugated peoples can rise above their oppressors and be free to have a life worth living. If we all look to Cod nothing is impossible, for He will help us. And we must start now so the word will spread. Let the U.N. start on the right track, the only track to peace, and the crazed dictators will be overcome. Then one day we will see the time when there is truly peace on earth and good will toward men. Y 'i 'l ,r r ' i 5 Da g' . , an-We , fi? T: 15 .1 ig. 'ra ,ra 7 T t gagg.?s,g4.:2ASfi if .

Now, looking back, it seems that we have advanced in many ways toward adulthood during our four years of high school. Cur first year we were taken up with making new friends and joining the organizations which were open to Freshmen. The highlight of 1946 was our Freshman play, Comin' Round The Mounf tain. As a class, we thought the Frosh were pretty good and someone else must have agreed with us, because we produced the best actress, by the name of Lorraine Griffith. By the time we became Sophomores we believed we were big wheels and proceeded to haze the new Freshmen. Our class actors and actresses appeared before the footlights this year in Kid Brother. Again we produced the best actress, Margaret Livingstone. By this time many of our members already had established places in the band, orchestra, chorus, cheerleaders, and basketball team. When we came back in September as juniors, the first endeavor was to organize and elect our officers. Marvyn Craig was chosen to lead us through the year with Kenneth Adams as vice' president, Beverly Anthony as secretary, and Walt Edwards as treasurer. We somehow overcame the obstacles that confronted us, and in the Spring sponsored the annual junior Play Contest. The Junior contribution was Blue Jeans Girl. Of course our most important event was the Junior Prom, held on Friday the thirteenth. Here we broke a record by being the first fwell, almost the firstj class to have a prom without having the clouds bring forth rain. Upon arrival the gym was hardly recognizable, and those in attendance were decked in their newest finery. Soon after, we struggled with our regents and earned the right to be Seniors in September '49. Our first class meeting, after a too short summer vacation, resulted in our electing Dick Van Allen as an able president, Dick Wallace, vicefpresidentg Dot Wilcox, secretaryg and Ray Vedder, treasurer. We were fortunate in obtaining the following deans to help guide us in our Senior activities: Miss Sheffield, Mrs. Weir, Miss Chouinard, and Mr. Mullen. Our Hrst activity was a very successful Halloween Dance, Then the Draperian Board, with Mr, Mullen as Adviser and Walt Cegelski as Editorfin'Chief, got down to work at the task of editing the Draperian, We also produced a very wonderful Senior Play, Vifhat A Life, on November 18. It was under the excellent direction of Mrs. june Youmans. We are anticipating a Hnal big event-the Senior Ball, which we expect will be all the Junior Prom was, plus a little bit more. With this Senior weekfend and graduation, when we will be both proud and sad at leaving, our four years of high school will be over-four years which will never be forgotten by any member of the class of 1950.

Walter Cegelski leaves his ability to get things done to the person at the head of the 1951 Dra- perian Board. Don Fonda and Dolores Arbour leave together. Walt Edwards and Gretta Gratton leave their acting talents to Vernon Busse and Roselyn Tuller. To Carolyn Rapant is left the musical ability of Bev Closson. Ronnie Powles leaves his rhythmic drums to Randall Hallenbeck. To next year's squad, Evie Fink, Audrey Nigf riny, Marge Livingstone, Bev Anthony, Millie Giaquinto, Rose Mary Bradt, and Gretta Gratton leave all they know about cheerleading and wish the girls luck in arousing school spirit. Marion Rakoske, Jackie Leather, Martha Smith, and Bev Closson leave the orchestra without a violin section. Dick Wallace leaves to join the ranks of the ten best dressed men in America. To Helen Pustolka is left the athletic ability of Bev Anthony. Dot Wilcox leaves her polished manners to Anna Mae Roberts. Rose Mary Bradt leaves her long list of extra' curricular activities to jackie Seavey. To Jeanne Gregory, Marge Livingstone leaves her ability to succeed. To Al Clothier is left the basketball prowess of George Welch. To John Hammond, Bob Snyder leaves his smilf ing manner. Nels LaRoe leaves his tardy slips to anyone who might need them. To the student body, we leave a faculty who can still give out plenty of home work. And in conclusion, to the faculty, we bequeath a restful summer and relief from the strain of keeping us in the straight and narrow way, with the hope that they will have an easier time next year.

They played canasta which is once again enjoying popularity after a lapse of ten years. Miss Eleanore Matzke, famed New York model returned home from Paris for a vacation. Miss Matzke, when alighting from her plane simply said, I'm glad to be home. We all remem- her her as Miss America of 1953. 'Wlawle Review The current movie at Proctors thea' ter, She Wore a Yellow Ribbon, lives up to all expectations of a truly fine movie. The plot may seem familiar, for about ten years ago it was filmed. Now, however, it has been changed in minor details and has a new cast. Gretta Gratton is the heroine, with Walter Edwards and Donald Sutton playing the two lieutenants who are rivals for Miss Gratton's affections. It seems that they have at last come into roles suitable to their acting ability. The top acting honors should also be shared with Raymond Vedder as Cap' tain Brittles. It was only ten years ago when this same cast appeared in the 1950 Senior Play at Draper High en- titled, What a Life. We are indeed fortunate to know these rising stars. New Comic Strip Will Appear Starting next week, Monday, there will be a new comic strip drawn by the world famous artists Beverly Hurst and Barbara Spring. Their ideas are a closely guarded secret, but they did tell us their hero is patterned after that lov' able character from Schenectady, Iohnny Macejka. The comic strip should prove very interesting. VAUDEVILLE RETURNS T0 SCHENECTADY Last night for the first time in many years, vaudeville returned to Schenec' tady at the Proctors theater. It is in- deed with pride that we write of the different acts which filled the program. Some of the finest talent consisted of hometown men and women. We recognized many as former Draper graduates. The M.C, was Fred Hopmeier, whom we have seen so often on television. The first act he introduced was a musif cal trio: Beverly Closson, violing Lucille Rodenmacher, guitarg and Barbara Bel' fance, mandolin. The audience thor' oughly enjoyed their choice of music, which consisted of polkas and ballads. Next came an accordionist, Donald De' Pietro. When he gave us his rendition of jealousy, we recognized him as hav- ing been on the Draper stage many years ago. One other soloist we feel we must mention was Robert Poranski, who showed his versatility on the piano. He played Rachmaninoflhs Pre' Iude in G Minov, and then switched over to Bumble Boogie. With talent such as this, we are confident that vaudeville is here to stay. Wanted-Two blond chorus girls to learn office work.

The council was brought back by popular demand, and officers were elected by the high school students with the aid of regular voting machines. The purpose of the new council lies in helping student activities to run smoothly, while the old council took on some of the activities of a student government. Some of the committees formed include Draper Follies, Bulletin Boards, Publicity, Assemblies, and School Spirit. Each high school homeroom is rep' resented in the council and suggestions are dis' cussed, voted upon, studied by the proper committees, and acted upon. Under the guidance of Mrs. Ruff, the council has established a constif tution stating that it is a nonfproht organization, and providing for, among other things, popular election of ofhcers each year and the procedure of amendment by the student body.

Football given it was overwhelming. This year there was no glory for the players, for there was much to be learned. Coached by Mr. LeGere, a former football star, the boys learned what goes into the game. They spent many tedious hours learning plays, how to tackle and block, and how to work as a team. This year there was no competition between Draper and other schools, but next season we hope to book several games and get out there on top.
