SCHOOL CALENDAR September 8 — School begins. The upperclassmen wonder if that noticeable greenish glow is caused by flores- cent lighting, or the fact that 81 new freshmen have invaded our halls. September 9 — I noticed Mr. King straightening his tie more than once in history class this morning. Perhaps he knows that the new teachers are being scrutin- ized by carefully observant eyes. September 16 “Are you with me?” This was the plea made by the eight candidates for cheerleaders today. Each hoped that the student body was with her. September 17 — Mrs. Gilbertson watched, horrified, as Wayne Nord masticated five toothpicks in study hall to- day. September 27 — The green color is disappearing from the halls about school. The freshmen have overcome their shyness, and will meet the ruling class of the school at a big dance tonight. Sorry! No sopho- mores or juniors allowed. October 10 — Smile pretty! You guessed it; the seniors are posing for pictures this week. October 22 — May I see your baby picture before you put it in your autobiography? The juniors have begun writing the stories of their lives. October 24 — The halls are glowing with a holiday atmos- phere. It’s homecoming! See you at the game and the big dance afterwards. October 31 — We all enjoyed meeting Mickey and Minnie Mouse at the Hallowe’en dance tonight. Some of the younger girls didn’t have this pleasure, how- ever. They disappeared when that monstrous cat- erpillar crept in. November 4 — It’s the teachers’ turn to study. Have fun at the convention! November 12 — The advisory tea was an occasion to don our best clothes and manners. The reception line felt almost as uncomfortable as the students did this year. Those overhead pipes were really hot! November 13 — Did Friday the 13th turn out to be an unlucky day? Ask the new Sr. G. A. C. members. They were initiated this evening. November 15 — The seniors at least are proud of the new ad- dition. They gave up this Sunday afternoon to show it off at Open House. November 16 — Teachers and senior guides got up earlier than usual this morning to soak their tired feet before coming to school. November 19 — Faculty members are beginning to wonder if some of our boys are underfed. Why are they chewing on toothpicks? November 21 — A large group of students rose with the sun this morning. It’s a long trip to Eau Claire, but everyone agrees that it’s worth it to attend the youth conference. November 25 — It’s Thanksgiving again, and we’re all thank- ful for a break from school. Don’t eat too much turkey. Tubby! November 30 — Those who survived the effects of Thanksgiv- ing dinner returned to school. December 16 — Oh. they're even prettier than last year’s! Junior class rings, of course. December 17 — Did they really sound better than we do? Chorus members were especially interested in the “Messiah”, presented for the student body by the New Richmond choir. December 17 Lamps burned long in the home of juniors tonight. Perhaps they haven’t quite completed their investigative themes which are due tomorrow. December 18 — A sigh of relief. The juniors handed in their themes. May they (the juniors) rest in peace over the Christmas vacation. December 19 — Why that flatters you! The senior exchange pictures arrived today. January 1 — Resolved: To stop chewing on toothpicks. January 4 — I know it’s hard to face, but bear up “kids.” Everyone’s going back to school. January 5 — Everyone had his picture taken today by Gene Brown of River Falls. Let’s hope his camera is still in working condition and the pictures turn out for the annual. January 15 — A few junior girls re-entered their childhood this evening and brought their stuffed animals to a basketball game with them. January 16 — Is it animal or human? Some of us were in doubt when we first saw Sally Harback’s “Duck Tail.” Really “kids”; it’s the style. January 20 — Semester exams. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet. Lest we forget. Lest we forget. January 21 — Exam papers returned. Lord God of Hosts was with us not. For we forgot. For we forgot. January 22 — Everyone’s thankful that the first semester’s over. But think what we’ve got to look forward to.
