S C H 0 O L C A L E N D A R The school house was still standing, that meant that school opened on schedule. Oh well, time moves fast, so they say. The senior class enjoyed a weiner roast at the home of Glenn and Ruth Brown. No one staggered because of the cider served. Today we really had excitement. Our boys' baseball team went to Randolph and really cleaned them up. We came out on top with a score of 10 to l. During the p.m. of this day the eighth grade class sponsored the first skating par- ty of the season at the Canadohta Roller Rink. Shirley Mae and Shirley Louise Laughery were chosen, pre- vious to this date, to represent Bloomfield in the North- western Livestock Show and Auction. On this day they Jour- neyed to the Wattsburg Fair Grounds to compete with other representatives from other schools for the title of Queen. Ruth Greiser from Conneaut Lake won this honor. A very clear night was accidentally chosen for the Ath- letic Association Treasure Hunt. The senior class, led by Howard Van Tassel, won the treasure. The members of the F.H.A. chose this night to have their formal initiation for the new members. Cute songs were sung and riddles recited. A nice time was enjoyed by all. The junior class finally got around to sponsoring their skating party at the Canadohta Rink. Sore spots and bruises were endured with smiles the following day. A large bus made a trip to New Castle today. Don't get me It was jam-packed with F.H.A. wrongg the bus wasn't empty. members who were on their way to attend the Northwestern Convention. Harriett Shreve led the groups in music. The F.H.A. and the F.F.A. really enjoyed themselves, and yet they learned how an electric roaster is made today when they visited the Westinghouse Plant at Meadville. Ghosts and goblins! The school gym seemed to be full of them at the annual Halloween Party sponsored by the seniors. Well, the rabbit and pheasant tasted better this year than ever before. The game hunt dinner was delicious. The auditorium was packed to capacity as the seniors per- formed in their annual play, 'Home Sweet Homic1de.n As a result of the play, nOh, foo,' and 'Oh, bony,' came into common slang usage. Thanksgiving vacation arrived and once more we ate. Back to school, but we could hardly walk after that feast. Miss Hood, a nurse from the Titusville Hospital, and Lois Dowler, a graduate of our school, with another student nurse gave talks on nursing as a career. Interesting. The annual Christmas program was well attended. The audi- torium was filled. Vacation started at 12:50 and just think! No school until January 5, 1950. Isn't that a shame?

O L C A L E N D A R We were honored to have a student of our school selected to lead the F.H.A. in music at the annual Farm Show at Harris- burg. Thanks, Harriett. Dorothy Humes, Shirley Mae, and Shirley Louise Laughery also attended. Individual pictures were taken of all the students. Snap- snapg click-click. Changes film that quick! The F.H.A. were at it again, but it had a pleasant taste as usual. A cherry pie contest got under way with much ex- citement. Barbara Clark won first place and Rosaline Cross won second. The wildlife program was enthusiastically received by faculty and students alike. The F.F.A. boys sponsored a Valentine Dance for the F.H.A. girls. Round and square dancing with everyone doing it whether they knew how or not. Although uOle Man Winter' tried to put a hex on the Senior St. Patrick's Day Dance, numerous students turned out, al- though the orchestra did not. Some danced to records while others played Canasta. Well, the F.H.A. did it again. This time it was a birthday party for the whole club. Gifts and eats. Harriett Shreve was the hostess. Did you ever see anything quite so cute as boys dressed as girls? If you have attended a booster game at Bloomfield, you will never miss the next one. Incidentally, the girls were dressed as boys on this occasion also. Vacationing again - or yet? The junior class performed in the hilarious comedy,'Pro- fessor, How Could You?' Mr. Roland Lafferty undertook the task of directing the play. By-the-way, James Green, alias the professor succeeded in marrying only one of the four girls pushed into his lap. The rest were divided among the rest of the class. Vacation! Vacation! Not a very long one, though. One- half day was given to the students because of a Social Studies Conference at Edlnboro State Teachers' College. Eats, dancing, and more eats. That's right. You have answered correctly the sixty-four dollar question. It was the- junior-senior prom and banquet. Did you get a good look at our May Queen? Cute, huh? The F.H.A. Mother and Daughter Banquet was well attended by members of the F.H.A. and their mothers. No boys allowed. Baccalaureate is over. Just think! Those dear little seniors won't be with us next year. We'll have new ones. Com encement. Farewell, dear seniors, and congratulations to you - from us. Eat, eat, eat. It seems that's all we've done this year. The Zenith staff is deeply grateful to Miss Rosaline Nineo for her whole hearted assistance in preparing this annual for publication.
