THE PERRYSCOPE Glass 4 is-fnrg Will you ever forget that first day! Remember how we got lost in the building trying to find the new gym? HI should say I do! g Z f W W f W W , W f f - Weren't we thrilled when a good-looking senior told us that he was to show us to our report room? Yes, only to be disappointed upon discovering that not one of the opposite sex was to be with us. To think we had to put up with that for two long semesters! Well, we were only 'freshiesf What more could be expected! That didn't stop us from inviting them to our Halloween party in 108! We surely did have a peach of a time! But weren't we glad when those ten months came to an end! To think, at last, we were Sophomoresln L'And given the privilege of occupying the last two rows of the auditorium and of being a part of the Senior High School. Say, that had nothing on how enthusiastic we were in becoming Juniors! L'How thrilled we were when we read the announcement in the bulletin that there would be an 111A class meeting in our homefroom 108! Yes, and it wasn't long until we elected our officers, and the committees had been appointed. What a time we had in choosing a class ring! L'I'Ialf of the class wanted that one with the rays, and the rest wanted the green gold with black enamel. Oh, we must not forget our Junior Prom! I should say not! I'1l never forget it anyway. How that orchestra ended the songs! Pretty snappy, I'd say. Too bad the taxis were on a strike. Right! I don't crave walking two miles, especially at that hourf' But after all, we had a good timef, Say, people will -think that all we did was enjoy ourselves! We'd better not let them get that impression, for we had some 'tall' studying to do, and I don't mean perhaps! I'll never forget Burke's Conciliation With the Colonies. You need to talk about Burke! I thought our worries in English would be over after we had become Seniors, then Miss Dickey greeted us with that well-liked book Halleck, which has accompanied us throughout our senior year. Let's forget studies and talk about something interesting! Aren't we having a circus trying to teach the boys how to dance? Do you think they'll ever learn? NI don't know, but 'where there's life there's hope'. By the way, weren't those cookies at the last social delicious? Speaking of cookies reminds me of the chicken sandwiches and dill pickles fhow my mouth watersj we had at our pajama party in Washington. We surely did teach the Allegheny girls how to win aa pillow fight. I don't want to change the subject, but don't you think Ferd's and Barty's idea of selling Senior Play tickets was a good one? 'LCO-mpetition among groups always arouses interest, especially when a treat is in store for -the winners. Wasn't the play a success! It certainly was, why not? They worked hard enough for it. I heard the cast was worn out at the end of each day. Well, it's no wonder, having to be at school at seven thirty. Oh, I hate to think of this semester ending. After the Prom and Commence' men-t our high school days will have come to an end. All we'll have left is pleasant memories. Let us hope future years will be just as glorious and happy as our previous ones have been. tu tt tt tt Lu tv. ss as The Two Maries 9

'THE PERRYSCOPF. GB it r G1 1 rx 5 5 When first we came to Perry High Four years seemed very long And we were sure they'd never end For our bright, happy throng. The Seniors all looked down on us As if we were but dirt, But we kept bravely on our way And never acted pert. From small and lowly freshman all To Sophmores we grew And wondered where our year had gone The time it surely flew. The day came we could organize For we were Juniors now We felt that we were quite grown up And we must make our bow. So then we had our Junior Prom 'T w-ent over with a bang No Junior's ever touched our mark, Our happy leaders sang. And now to august seniors we Have gradually made our wayg We feel as old as Pa and Ma For we've all the bills to pay. Farewell to dear old Perry High To teachers kind and trueg Our hearts are full of thankfulness That we have all known you. Marion Locke
