did you ever notice... 0 that BOB DAVIS walked exactly like Spencer Tracy . . . how wonderful BETTIE VINCENT looked in kelly green sweaters . . . how infectious BUD VANDER MARK'S laugh was . . . how April-ish BARBARA INSKEEP looked with daisies in her pigtails . . . LOUIE POWELL'S eye-lashes . . . how well the nickname FLIP fitted her. . . how much fun ELWOOD HEDBURG was . . . that there as something Lana Turner-ish about NANC Le' LIOTT . . . that ELLIS MCCURLEY very definitely had assets other than intelligence . . . what a very nice voice VIRGINIA HAYES had , . . CLAYTON ANDERSON . . . what truly remarkable eyes CON- NIE WARREN had . . . that there was something almost sinister about LEO MIKSCHE-until he smiled . . . PAT BALLANTYNE'S engagingly dif- ferent speech mannerisms . , . that no matter where she sang JEAN MORAN made it sound like a top-flight Broadway show . . . how terribly and sincerely proud we all were of our boys that en- listed-and of all who will serve in some way, if not that way . . . that CAROL HARTER wrote prize- winning poetry . . . LEE CHASE'S own particular and killing brand of humor . . . HAL ADAMS' really outstanding football playing . . . JUNE JARMlN'S honest and ever-present friendliness . . . the unique and amazing, found-only-in-high-school, phenomenon that was BILL VAN DYKE . . . BETTY LATHAM'S figure . . . that high school never 12 could have gone 'round without people who worked hard and seldom got thanked-for instance: SHIR- LEY WEISENBURGER, L O R R A I N E GLEASON, JACK MOFFAT . . . AL WElR'S smile . . that JERRILEE LOVEJOY looked slightly but decidedly Madeline Carroll-ish . . . JACK KRESSE without his key-chain a-swing . . . the indefatigable EVA HEDRlCK'S laugh . . . that, after all is said and done, DAN GRAHAM and BETTE ROSE were the perfect couple . . . that we had girls who were both beautiful and brainy, and boys who were athletes as well as students, disproving, to our credit, an old theory . . . that the faculty were people, and awfully nice people . . . the swish with which NATALIE PARKER wore her clothes and hair and rifles . . . that MARY LOU LYMAN was as grand and square as her name . . . ALICE DAY'S striking beauty . . . the way BRUFF MCELHOSE moved his head instead of his hands when he talked . . . that JOHN LONG and HERB EDWARDS were really swell guys without making a lot of ruckus about it . , . likewise GENE RAE and KENNY JONES .. . AND HAVE YOU NOTICED . . . that my nostalgia has been showing . . . maybe because these high school days have been so priceless . . . perhaps because they happen just once . . . or that they are doubly dear because of the war and all. At any rate, to most of us, graduation is bitter- sweet.
