C COMMENCEMENT night was a very exciting occasion for our class, because of everyone being promoted. re enjoyed our summer vacation; some taking trips, others going to camps, and still others enjoying themselves at home. Although we like vacation, most of the class was very enthusiastic about returning September 4th. We have several new subjects, such as science, vocations, and home economics for the girls and manual training for the boys. We have had a two-day Thanksgiving vacation, a two-week Christmas vacation and soon will have the Friday before Easter. So far this has been a very thrilling year, with many assemblies, new subjects, new teachers and new equipment. The school has had an old-iron drive in which we helped. Since the war, we have been trying to conserve all war materials. Many of the class have purchased defense stamps. We are looking forward to summer vacation, although there will be no fireworks or other war materials with which to celebrate the Fourth of July. We will probably confine our sports to swimming, fishing, and picnics. Entertainment costs little, but is good for everyone. THE 1 9 4 2 PIR AT AN

BUT BETTER TO BE AN GRADER EARLY in the fall of 1933. the members of the present eighth grade class started their first school days under the supervision of Miss Brumbaugh, the kindergarten teacher. During the first three grades we were taught entirely by home room teachers, so that when we reached the fourth grade, it was quite a thrill passing from room to room, having a different teacher for each subject. These elementary grades were under the supervision of Mr. Cavender, the grade school principal. Our sixth grade seemed to be the most outstanding year, as it was during this year that we gave an operetta, published the Pirates Log, and experienced our first commencement. There are many talented pupils in our class; some in music who have gone to Miami and won high ratings and some have won art scholarships. The eighth grade boys won a trophy in basketball. In the tournament they won one out of the two games they played. There are seventy-three pupils in the eighth grade. We are all looking forward to entering the ninth grade, hoping to make a scholastic record higher than any other class up to date.
