Miss Senior Class Charlotte Coyle Latin, and history. We decided our future course of study; whether it would be Classical, Scientific, or Commercial. We played and we worked. The Brum- by Recreation Center was beginning to play a big pai ' t in our school life. We thought that we were definitely in the know by the time we became Juniors. We had begun to edit (well, maybe just help out) the high school publications. We had a script dance to raise money for the Junior-Senior Banquet. We took a trip to Athens towards the end of the year and had a wonderful time. Then as a final stroke the Junior-Senior Banquet and dance filled all our dreams and filled our hearts with happiness. Then that final, fateful year. We have been in such a mad scramble that we remember nothing but fun and happiness. The year passed by like a shot, and now we here find ourselves in caps and gowns almost departed from our high school life forever.

It doesn ' t seem so many hours ago that we first toddled into our Freshman classroom, timid and afraid, just as if we were embarking on some great ad- venture. And this is just what our high school career turned out to be — an adventure of fun and joy, work and play, and sometimes a little sadness. But in our Sophomore year we began to feel that we were being noticed, and began to get a definite swagger in our walk. We struggled over algebra, President Joe Cell Word relaxes beside Martha Dickson and Mary E. Gamble. • i 16
