MTSS FULLER, Sponsor: JAMES HEMMINGSON, PresidenTg JOHN HlLL, Treasurer: MARY RUE SPEER, Secretary oT The June Seniors. SENIORS 'Way back in I9 I4 A. D. Oh, yes! ThaT was The year a greaT war sTarTed. IT was also The year The Highland Park school sysTem had iTs ToundaTion laid. The old Timers didn'T drive a sleek, sTream-lined converTil:nle wiTh a radio in iT To school. Radio was a vague Term: and swing and iiTTerbugs were unknown. The depression and New Deal were Things To come. Gals wore dresses To Their shoe Tops: The boys' knickers and peg-Top panTs were swanky. Fingernail polish was a scandal, and iazz was The Thing. In Those days make-up was aT a premiumg Today iT:s a good Thing ThaT lipsTick isn'T TaTTening. Hi-Park sTudes didn'T have chromium and mirrored dance spoTs, Talking picTures, nickelodeons, or sweeT hoT swing To enTerTain Them: whaT did They do? Probably all righT, Trom reporTsg even in Those prehisToric Times They had Their momenTs. Page Tweniy-ff gpnncns-una
