Georgia is one of the pioneers of the senior class,
She came to EA, in her freshman year and since then
she has taken her place as one of our leading seniors,
She has distinguished herself most prominently in the
fields of dramatic and publications She participated
in the spring plays in her junior and senior years and
received leading parts both times She was truly
honored this year when she was appointed editor of
the l948 Hilltop which was one of the most successful
year books the academy has published in recent years
Georgia didnt take a back seat in student govern
ment this y ar by any means ln the beginning of the
year she was appointed to the Dorm Council and later
he was voted to the Student Council positions she
fulfilled with competence and responsibility Georgia
was one of the prettiest and most popular girls in the
school thi year With her irrpersonal and suave
manner especially towards the boys she has truly
been the queen of the campus

At Chrtstmas Mme each club adopted a Br1t1sh famlly to feed for several

lt IS always a challenge to have someone to work agatnst and through these
clubs the students were well able to have competmon lt develops a feellng
of teamwork and though one may only be pulltng a rope 1n a tug of war
thls IS tmportant and a great deal of pleasure as well

DORM CUIINCII.
lhrs year the Dorm Councxl was cornprlsed of srx boys representmg the
boys dorm and one grrl representmg t'1e grrls dorm M los Steyskal and hm
fllansky who were on last year s councn we e automatrcally on rt Georcua
Srms and Pete Blelby Were then added to make 1t a councrl of four As the
year progressed the councrl felt that they were ln need of more members and
Consequently Ralph l-lorwrtz and Ioe McConnell were added Two Weeks
later Art Smukler was also added to make the group complete
The purpose of the dormrtory counc1l IS to help estabhsh rules m the dormr
tory and enforce them When a rule IS broken the md1v1dual IS reported and
on Wednesday mghts the person IS brought down before the counc1l and hrs
case revrewed After h1s or her case IS revxewed and all the facts are accu
rnulated the person rs sent back to hrs room to study Each phase of the case
rs carefully d scussed and contemplated and fmally a verdrct rs dec1ded upon
Erther he or she IS excused or a punrshment IS levled e1ther severe or mmor
dependmg upon the serrousness of the c rme The reason for estabhshmg the
Dorm Councrl was not to punr h the boys but to help them adlust themselves
to the rules of the school lf an mdrvrdual had any suggestrons to help make
the dormrtory a better home they could present thelr ldea to the councll and
they would do thelr best to have the plan carr1ed out
Be rdes hav1ng a hand 1n student government the dorm councrl was re
sponslble for worklng ln the Squrrrel Cage 1n the recreatlon room every
evemng a Job whrch they fulfrlled very dlllgently

THE AEICIILQRIANS
This year as usual the Aeichlorians were a very active group in the school
program lt was through the efforts of this organization that many of our
social functions were such successes and the school has shown ample appre
ciation to these girls for their Job well done
The club is composed of all girls in the upper school and it is thelr 1ob to
direct any extra curricular activities for which they might be needed There
were made members
Throughout the year the Aeichs were hostesses at various functions of
formal or informal value In the fall the girls acted as hostesses at several
teas following the football games played at our home field The largest of
these was of course the Homecoming tea on Saturday October 25 ln the
Winter the girls were hostesses at several mixers and on February 21 they
gave their annual formal dance This year it vas entitled The Crystal Ball
and the dining room of Sears Hall served as the ball room The decorations
carried out the theme in soft blue rose and silver Music for the fete was
furnished by Maurice Norltngs Orchestra
A more serious side of social procedure was taken up durmg the late
N nter and early spring in the study of manners and etiquette Special
stress was g1ven to table manners and introductions
The club s president for this year was Georgia Sims who was assisted by
lane Nichol vice president and lean Shillmglaw secretary while Phylhs
l-larbula managed the treasury The two advisers for the year were Mrs
Durtsclu and Miss Moore
I rl . I . . l A I I . V. S .
were eight old girls in the club this year, and in the fall, thirteen new students

well Of the group Andy Shrlhnglaw a freshman showed the most promrse for successtve

I poured myself a glass of beer and stood gla s rn hand starlng out over the moonlrt
expanse of desert A mosqulto buzzed close to my ear and I brushed 1t away lmpatlently
I paced back and forth rn the small tent The expedztton was not gotng as well as I had
thought We had been dlggrng for a sunken tomb shown 1n an ancrent dlagram to be one
hundred frfty feet from the Great Pyramld So far our excavatlons had d1sclosed nothxng
and our hopes were runnrng low
Nervously gulpxna down the remarns of my drlnk I pusned out rnfo the n1ght The moon
was at 1ts zenlth but I dtdnt notrce I walked atmlessly my hands sunk deep ln my pockets
curs1ng the lrfelong ambrtron that had brought me h re Who was 1t that once sard
Archeology IS lrke a drsease 1t knaws at your vltals untrl 1t consumes you? Deep ln my
thought I stumbled by the Sphtnx and found myself standmg before the btg pyramld and
before the tra1l whrch leads to the top On an lmpulse I began to cllmb Ftve thousand
years ago the surface had been smooth Tnangular blocks had been fltted lnto the angles
of ucceedrng steps Now the decaylng stone and debr s had agam fllled the angles and 1n
another few thousand years th1s stone monument would be only a h1ll of stone and gravel
Short of breath I garned the too and paused to collect my self I looked around The desert
that lay behtnd had lost dtstrnctness of outltne ana had b come a soft floatxng sea of sand
The velvetv ftelds of gram and grass were dotted wtth clusters of palms and 1n the dlstance
lay the N1le glrttertng 1n the blue lrght Sudd nly I felt myself expand and become a part
of the desert waste The pyramtd I was resttna on became not an ancrent ptle of perlsh
able rocks but an element a part of the earth to watt through ttme unt1l we and our ClV1l1
zatron and our languages and manners shall have been lost and forgotten
When New York and London are legends the future generatlons w1ll look upon the pyra
mrds as w do today wrth awe and admtratton I realrzed my work though drscouragtng
at tmte was all Important tn preservmg for the future the monuments of the past
