And even if we won't admit it, the three boys we have now are rather precious creatures-and are to be handled with kid gloves. We can look still farther into the future-June, 1945-what then? We will be ready to take our places in the working world. That time seems so far away we don't like to think of it. At times we may get tired of school and say we'd like to quit but if we did how we'd miss it. Next year we hope to do something which so far has not been accom- plished-rid B. H. S. of its greatest pest-Detention. If we did this we would certainly be remembered by the students of B. H. S., fespecially the present Freshmanb. In fact they might erect a plaque or some such thing in our memory It's something to work for anyway J AVI-DRILL 45 I WISTFUL WISHING In September 1942 we began our high school career as freshman The first day we were very happv and gan nex er thinking, of the fate to befall us Then came the Freshman Reception and we were tamed dox n some After that we realized we had better start studying if we ex er hope l to become dignified sophomores So study we did Then September 1943 and we were once more beginning school only as sophomores this year We watched the freshmen at their reception 9 ' v w rf ' - f . . , v A , , . . . . . u Y Y Y ' V . r .- u Q. 7 sf 1 ' v , ,. . . i , V . .

THE NAVILLUS cannot express 1n words? Perhaps you have never thought of It at all The flag of our country stands for the country 1tself We say that the Stars and Strlpes IS a symbol of the natlon to wh1ch we belong All those who have gone before us have helped to make thls nat1on what xt IS todav and therefore have helped to make the flag The flag of the Unlted States stands for the first settlers who left then' homes and crossed the ocean to bu1ld new homes 1n the wllderness It stands for the hardshlps of Jamestown nd Plymouth for the ploneers who conquered the boundless West for the Declaratlon of Independence for those men who formed and gu1ded the new government for Pearl Harbor Wake Island and Guadalcanal for all those who have glven thelr l1ves that th1S land mlght be free The flag means the nat1on whlth gu xrds and protects you Perhaps xou have nex er thought that you haxe any thmg whatsoey er to do 11 1th the natlon Perhaps It has alw ays seemed far away The c1ty the town and the county are parts of the state and the state IS a part of the natlon The ll2tl0Il IS you your mother and your father your slsters and brothers all the people who l1ve around you and the people far away ID Cal1forn1a and Florlda all the people of your country actlng together under one flag and 1ov1ng It All of these are a part of what the flag means It IS a flag wh1ch float over a free natlon where the Wlll of the cltlzens IS the law of the land M STILLINGQ 44 SATIRE ON BEING A SENIOR Perhaps the most awe 1nsp1r1ng feelmg at any stage of a person s career 1n l1fe IS that feellng when he IS a Sen1or Of course the feellng one undergoes upon becommg an alumnus may be a b1t more elevated but who am I to state a fact w1th no knowledge or practlcal exper1ence of the matter and for all common purposes I shall conclude that 1f not bemg the most aloof feelmg lt at least runs a close second to 1tS rxval No step 1n one s ladder of success more completely transforms a pe1 son from an mslgmhcant part1cle of humamty 1nto a supposedly lntelllgent and looked up to belng than that long r1se from the freshman class up to the sen1or class A freshman IS an lmportant person one must admlt but usually only to hlmself It IS sad but true that somethlng of drast1c 1m portance must take place IH the l1fe of a freshman to make h1m even as much as recognlzed by an 1llustr1ous sen1or Of course It helps 1f Saul freshman always keeps on hand an eas1ly accesslble supply of gum or an even more eas1ly access1ble supply of penclls But th1S constltutes only one small TISS 1n hls socxal ladder and such lnexhaustlble reserx es are more often taken as a matter of course by the sen1ors as one of those small courtesles due such lmportant d1gn1tar1es as they To the eyes of a sen1or a freshman stands out among all other scholars by h1s complete nanete or unsoph1st1cat1on Belleve me there IS never any evldence of such Slm DllC1ty 1n a sen1or' A freshman can always be seen laugh1ng at h1s teach er s yokes whlch seems a strange thlng to a sen1or s experlenced eye and lt must be lmpressed 1n thls satlre that humorous fe6llngS are almost un heard of 1n sen1or classes and ex en 1f thought of are always carefully sup .vs4vs.-sars-vsa-s.vs.vsns-.-s.-vsns.vsng.. s..s.-x.fs.fs.-sa-s.-s.-x.rsns.vsavs.vsa-s-vs L L .
