SENIOR DITCH DA Y: So that accounts for all the noisy chattering and ,Ska laughing early Tuesday morning, February 18. It was the Seniors trying to find room on the truck for themselves, their coats, and their J I ' lunches. They arrived at the snow safely, although a number of the smaller Seniors were slightly smashed. Here. the real fun began. the toboggans and ski were brought out and the day began with one big slide of fun after an- other. Some of the Seniors looked anything but dignified while trying to pick themselves up after an attempt to use the ski. The fun continued until after- noon, then Seniors made one grand rush for the truck to find a place to rest their bruises on the wav home. On arriving at school it was learned that the Sophomores had taken good care of the Freshies. CxcliNlOR DRESS UI' DAY! Dear me-ani l dreaming? W'ho are is those people and why are they dressed that way? What? O, yes! Senior Dress bp Day accounts for it. QI Here comes a he-who is a lie In she! Feature it? Forms have changed somewhat, haven't they? Aly goodness! ,-X cannibal chief! U-o-o-he-what a relief, it is only our Student liody President. QI This dignified, old-fashioned, coinely girl must be in mourn- ing: we must express our sympathy. It is-why, surely! She isn't sad, for she is usually quite happy. l1lThere is certainly some class distinction now, isn't there? From hobos to the highest degree of dignity, even so! Think nothing of it-they are all dignified Seniors. 111 Charles Fitch. a mean ole cannibal with a high silk hat won first place. while jesse Stilliens with his colorful complexion, abbreviated skirts, and ankle socks took the boy's second prize. Doris Pogue. a petite, old-fashioned lady with three teeth missing in front and a ridiculous bustle, won the girl's first prize. Louise Arnold, an aged. grey-haired. feeble. grandam won second place. QI Here's hoping, classmates, when you be-- come Seniors, dignified or otherwise, that you will be able to impersonate differ- ent characters as well as we. and can have as equally a good time. cs :HE JUNIOR-SENIQR B.-'XNQUIII' fl929j! May 13. 1929! That was the night of the celebrated junior-Senior Banquet. The modern idea of the radio was the theme-song throughout the place-cards. 1 table arrangements, and favors. Charles Fitch, the station announcer. introduced the various speakers who brought tears well as laughter to the dcparting Seniors. The Hayseed orchestra furnished the entertainment be- tween courses and after the banquet. More nierriinent ensued when some of the braver guests attempted dancing to l-layseedi' music. Imagine trying to waltz to Turkey in the straw'!!
