I ' d rather be a Hottentot . . . Well, jeepers — I didn ' t mean to be singing a solo! I ' m Aggie Hottentot — and you ' re Scotties aren ' t you? I ' m getting ready to give a quick review of the year to a few friends — Caspar the Ghost 59, Droopy ' 58, Dennis the Menace ' 57, and Pogo ' 56.

It ' s the grandest place you ' ll ever see If you don ' t believe it just come with me, I ' d rather be a Hottentot than a multimillionaire. beauty, and personality be found! But you ' ll soon see for yourself! My namesakes were more than book- Scenes p 3 Dedication p 6 Faculty p 8 Classes p 29 Activities p 69 Athletics p 95 Calendar p 105 Index p 129 Advertisements p 131
