Nosey Damsel Well, well, well who would ever have thought of finding me in The Fricassee. I was so flustered when the Editor asked me to write her a letter. I couldn't think of anything else!I You know that's a funny word fricassee” it means stew in French. I guess they chose it because us High School folks are always stewing or in a stew about something!! Well, we surely had a fine schol year in everything!! And I know everybody is sorry it's over but still there's next year!! Our football season was a hum dinger, we even beat the Josuits!! and would have been Champions if some old mean Athletic Association hadn't made a silly old rule that we had to play them twice, so next time they beat us! I Well, we'll go at 'em twice as hard next year!! Our basketball season wasn't so hot, but we got 'em in the District Playoff just the same, but Istrouma beat us in that by one point so there was nothing doing for us in the State Tournament. Now our boxing team was just the stuff and so was our track team. For 15 years v e've carried off the honors at the State Rally that's some record! 1 for any school!! We had plenty of nice holidays this year, not nearly as many a? we wanted, but still more than we've ever had, two weeks at Christmas which meant New Year's Day, of course most of us used to take New Year's Day but this year we knew way ahead, we were going to have it so we planned for it! and Mardi Gras that's another day we used to take but this year everybody treked down to N. O. for the day! Miss Alex load the crowd and Senorita brought up the rear!! We've got lots of other things besides holidays this year that we've never had before—a band and a glee club!! our band in their green and gold caps and capes, led the Momu3 Carnival parade and did they strut!! We had a big celebration of Home Ec s twenty-fifth birthday. People from all over the Parish came to B. R. High for this affair. Wo all wore red camelias to show that we belonged to the Home Ec. Club and after the program we served refreshments in the apartment we had a big time!! and oh the nice dances all the fraternities and sororities gavel I don't know which was the best!! The only thing I don't like about the State Rally is that it comes so close to final exams , school would be just like heaven, if we didn't have exams and reports— they just kill everything!! but after all, we can't play all the time, we get tired of playing, and school's a lot of fun, tho teachers are all nice and smart, the building is gorgeous, the cafeteria is grand with the best kinds of eats: so 1 think that Baton Rouge High is just the finest place for a girl or boy to go to school, even if it does take some of us five years to finish! so long everybody until next September!! 22
