aah First on any list of senior es- sentials, is Time, the all-important commodity that no senior should be without. lt fills all the little gaps between Sunday and the following Saturday. Those all too well-known words, Can you spare a minute, sonny? linger on. A forty-eight hour day and a fourteen day week - that's the life of a senior. Not only do class assignments and proiects take up valuable time, but extra-curricular activities, too: newspaper, annual, Senior Play, etc., etc. As shown in the picture, poor seniors must look for solace in the realm of literature. 6 . is 1 T ' how to be ffm!

Questionaires, information data, and never-ending stacks of various forms pile up, and up, and up. lt's the wise senior who applies to more than one college, or for more than one iob - and then spends the second semester filling out the re- quired forms. This is definitely one of the hows to be a senior. Every gradu- ation hopeful is plagued by them. After spending time filling them out, a senior is haunted in his sleep by visions of his name, address, and zone number, which he has neatly printed countless times. The scholarship questionoires are the best! Are you receiving govern' ment benefits as o Civil War veteran? Yes - No - lf so, how much do these payments amount to?
