How long we have looked forward to this year when we will have a chance to show what we, can really do. One hundred and eighty--three of us should be able to break all records, especially with quality to back up our numbers. ' , 20-Working night and day on our play, we hear that the Resident Theatre is also putting on The Late Christopher Bean , so we decide to go over to see if we can get a few pointers. 2-3-Our junior play! The publicity committee has done some good work and we break all previous records in having crowds both nights. A huge success, including the midnight celebration afterwards. 21-We show our originality in introducing the self-liquidating party! No assessments, everybody comes, clance, bingo, decorations, program 'neverything-all financed by the sale of pop and candy. We've sent for a copyright on the idea! 20-We set the date for the Carnival and have the first committee meeting. 4-5-National Forensic tournament at William jewell. Most of our honors are won by juniors. 10-Famous Model T parade! It takes most of the day to haul them in, but what's a day ot school. Vlfe must fulfill our obligations as advertisers! ll-The real parade makes a big hit. Led by the faithful sound car, we tour the countryside with color- ful information that If you stay home, ou'll be Ionel tomorrow night. U V y y 'cause everybody's coming to the junior Carnival i2-Surely nobody is lonely, for all of them are here at the junior Carnival having a grand tin A d , i e. n from the gate receipts it seems certain the seniors will not go away from the baiiquet hungry. 7-Night of nights--the junior-Senior banquet! lt's been a lot of work, but it's well worth it to have a really successful party that everyone will remember as the climax of junior activities. 20-School is out. Hooray! Yet we're just a little glad we're not seniors, for I k ' we oo forward to seeing everyone again next fall. l-lere's hoping we all have a swell vacation. 22
