Talented Senior A's Sparkle on Class Day One hundred and twenty-six mighty Senior A's marched onto the N.H. auditorium stage on November 15, after receiving their chocolate brown sweaters, thus climaxing Class Day by honoring B-12's and A-11's in a special as- sembly. Having, at last, the opportunity to show just what a talented bunch this class of winter '45 is, the seniors proved to be the masters of the situation by presenting one of the most entertaining Class Day programs N. H. has yet wit- nessed. This year's Class Song, composed by Marjorie Cassels, was a beautiful tribute to the school and was pre- sented by the seniors from the stage, led by Bill Cameron. Special honors go to all the performers who participated in the program. Gil Hodges, Senior A Class President, started the program by introducing an alumnis, Walter Catts, who recalled the days when he was a Senior in the old, long forgotten Class of Winter '-45. Walter remembered certain incidents that had seemed important in his Senior year, thus giving a novel twist to the introduction of the entertainers. Comedy was provided by: the Sunshine Boys Cjack Smal- ley and Earnest Rudolphj with their slapstick comedyg Maury Orr, the female Bob Hopeg and Wanda Lee Gaudin and Pat Nathan, singing a well-received satirical song en- titled If No One Ever Marries Us. jerry Antes did a fast tap dance followed by Herbert Davies, a fine baritone, who sang Over the Billowy Sea. While in the singing depart- ment credit should go to Lelia Myers who with jean Morgan sang Smarty, Smarty and later vocalized with Don Dunlop on the current favorite, Trolley Song. Recognition also goes to Elsie O'Connor and Marjorie Cassels who played a beautiful duet on the piano and also to Mrs. Salle and Miss Estrop for their kind guidance and help with the program. This year's Class Day was both interesting and entertain- ing and will be long remembered as one of the highlights in the school life of the Mighty Senior Class of Winter '45. CLASS SONG Mariorie Cassels We're the class of winter forty-five, And we strive to do our best with Truth, vision, high endeavor, ever as our guide. These dear halls of memory, we must leave them now But in our hearts we'll remember all The friendships we've made. We're leaving you North Hollywood, From your portals we must go. So now we say goodbye to you And to our school, North Hollywood.
