The Junior Class me OF course everyone is at some time or other Usentenceclu to study in Room 51, hut naturally, on this page, we are most ' interestecl in tluniors. Room 51 is the room oi rooms. Everyone is supposecl to he studying, hut you can usually count on the fingers oi one hand the ones who are whole-hearteclly engagecl in this activity. As we enter, we try to push loy the many small groups oi pupils who are tallcing aloout clances, that all-important date, and everything else that isnit connected with school worlc. But in a too loriei moment the hell rings: we all talce our seats ancl open hoolis, hut those who really reaci them are Jean Steele, Mathilda Urloan, and Bill Novalc. Every Junior in this room seems to have something to clo. lt may he talli- ing fon the rare occasion when teacher isnit loolcingl,-dit may he sleeping,-it may he writ- ing notesg whatever it is, hegs enjoying himself. But letis loolc arouncl at our fellow worliers fno sarcasm intendecll. Over there is Reada Nleerhoti, trying to get a note across the room to Dot Rowe, who is waiting patiently. Franlc Parry lolls gracefully over the ciouhle seat, stretching out his arm to Gunnar Wallin. Jean Britton, Eileen Larimer, Bertha Bolin, ancl Morris Scoratow are continually passing papers i-they claim it is geometry that lceeps them so lousy. Jael: lsles sits near the teacheris cleslc, so - V.. .loscplllnrt Dicliicra, 'linit Tronctti, Pal Xhwlliams, Rosc- Catanzano are chatting ww ll V l CIIIIIIIO, Class 'lrcasure sv Class of '42 he tallcs all period anci still cloesnyt get H qincidentaiiy, he tallcs to the teach- er.l Dan Mellett ancl Janet Peniclc seem to . . . he very much inter- esteci in what they are cloing. Could it possiloly he school work? Why cloesnit Mary Louise Urloanic piclc on us .luniors to winlc at instead of the Seniors? Vvhat have the Seniors in their favor except age? Oh, thereis Auclrey Banlcer trying to thinlq up a new Hleaclu for her news article. Alice Lelnan is flashing her eyes ancl olimpleg at her neighhors across the aisle. Helen Sterner is clrawing one of her heautiiul history maps. Mary Zeolla and Jeanne Eustis, hless 'em, are quietly studying. Now as we loolc at the cloclc it is quarter to twelve. Every one is getting a little clrowsy, ancl wondering what hels going to rio tonight. Ten to twelve . . . we are heginning to feel the pangs of hunger ancl wish that the hell woulcl ring. Ali! two minutes to go and everyone is hanging hoolcs so he will loe the first one in the aisle-everyone has the same iclea. The time has come-the Switch whistle blows-hut the hell cloesnlt ring. After an eon or so the loell rings. That was a clesperate at- tempt Anna Fraser made to he first in the aisle, hut she missecl it. Page Twenty-seven
