Some will go on to college, others will go into the business world. Already many have entered the service of their country. We have tried to present a book that will help us remember Central as the school l in which we Worked and played together through' out our high school days. Nl PERSONNEL .... GENERAL MANAGERQ-ARTHUR C. SIDES, Ph.D. Neatly dressed, with a flickering smile upon his face revealing his quiet sense of humor, Dr. Arthur C. Sides, the Doc to Central's twelve hundred students, has continued to manage our plant with his customary excellent leadership. Dr. Sides, born in Massachusetts, came to Bridgeport in 1916, with degrees from Dartmouth and New York University. During the war, he served as ia member of Psychological Co. No. lg was assistant principal of Central from 1918 to 1940, acting principal 194042, and since then has been the oilicial manager of the Plant. To the student body, the Doc embodies all that stands for Central's spirit and tradition. We I 9 listen to him directing assemblies, try to seem serious and intelligent when he visits classesg we see him in the halls, and in the lobby at two' fifteeng sometimes we catch brief glimpses of him in his creamfcolored oflice behind a desk piled high with the paper work that is, unfortunately, necessary for the maintenance of a calm and tranquil school life. An appointment with the Doctor has often given us bad attacks of -the jitters, but none who have ever heard his calm, unruifled voice and listened to his sound understanding counsel can ever feel that he does not thoroughly comprehend and sympathize with the joys and sorrows of youth. ASSISTANT MANAGER 1 ulia C. Farnim is in' ot thc thrcc Assistant Managers who it K ' '- I-hw -not Dean of Girls, Miss -I havc kcpt tht Ilants mac intry wt and smoothly functioning.

June finds Central's Master Workmen , t-he Senior Class, going forth into a world of uncerf tainty and hardship. Yet, always bearing in mind, the class motto selected way back in 1943, We strive to be efficient in everything we do , the class is prepared to face firmly all diffi- cult circumstances. In spite of critical wartime conditions, the class in its long trek to graduation has successfully com' pleted the work and experienced all the pleasures high school days should offer. This is due para' mountly to the competent guidance of the class adviser, Miss Mary E. Murren, to whom the Seniors extend their sincerest appreciation. 'Starting as Workmen , in 1943, with Richard O Connell as president, the 1945 sheepskin hold' ers sponsored the traditional Sophomore Visiting Day. They also brought to Central an interesting assembly at which Mr. james Halsey, assistant president of the Junior College, spoke interest' ingly on 'LThe Value of Education . Then in 1944, as Skilled Workmen , this year's graduates supplemented their eventful sophomore year by their theatre party held at the Lyric on March 15. Arsenic and Old Lace , starring Bela Lugosi and the original New York cast. The co'chairmen of the affair were: Joan Keeley and Richard O'Connell. Culminating the class's course through Central, the 1945 activities were carried out with fervor. Although the traditional trip to West Point was out of the question because of present day curtailf ments, the other social events of the year more than compensated for this disappointment. On October 26, a Roller Skating Party, under the management of Victor Riccio and Olive Oppenheim was held at Holland's Skateland. Over three hundred and fifty students attended and the affair was deemed a great success by the entire school. Following this came the presentation of the Senior Play which was the Broadway Hit, junior Miss under the direction of Miss Estelle McElroy. Because of the quality of the first pro' duction, the play was again presented on January 19. All proceeds were donated to the newly cref ated Central High School Alumni War Memorial Fund. On February 21, the Central Gymnasium was the scene of the gala Senior Hop, the second most important event of the year. This midfwinter dance was attended only by seniors, in accordance with the rulings of the Senior Executive Board. At the hop, class members swayed to the music of the Dance Masters, a tenfpiece orchestra, and also enjoyed a program of Senior talent. Fred Trumbull, Central's crooner, and Mildred Pal- matier were featured. . . 70 13 The managers of the entire affair were the class directors of Social Activities, while the pre- paration of the deeflicious refreshments served was handled by Mildred Palmatier. Chairman of the other committees working on the hop were: Decorations, Marie Minopolig Entertainment, Thomas Moran, Busi-ness, Jack Falk, Floor Com' mittee, John Reilly, Publicity, Althea Scanzillog Invitations, Sandra Abramowitzg Check Room, Victor Riccio. To top off the year, the Senior Prom was held at the Ritz Ballroom on May 18, followed on June 12 by the Senior Banquet. Both these events, containing a certain degree of sadness in that they represented the end of Good old golden rule days were fully supported by all the class and proved very successful. The 1945' class has been reduced in number by the many boys who have answered their country's call. These boys have been very much missed by those remaining in the halls of Central but have never been forgotten. The list of entering service' men as of March 28 of this year include: Peter Altieri, Peter Benfanti, Frank Bonitati, james Carey, Norman Choha-t, jack Conroy, joseph Conte. Joseph De Acutis, Edward De Biase, Frank Di Lorenzo, George Drew, Frank Edwards, Joseph Espanol, Rocco Faustine, Joseph Franzino, Walter Gancorz, Michael Girardi, Harold Goud' reau, John Howell, Edward jorczyk, john Lauria, Joseph Natoli, Joseph Ponzetti, Ben Rapice, Leo Ratick, Mario Rubano, Louis Soracco, David Speer, Eugene Tyrell, Kermit Weinkofsky, and Harold Vkfhite. ' It is with pride that the Senior Class marches forward, holding high its motto. With God's help may we always be a credit to our country and our school. -Q, 1 VD! 1 Qi' 'if' ix lui ---V-Wi L ll I T E ll I 0 N 14 AARON, MARVIN Tex Aeronautical Engineev First Lieutenant in Band 4: Band 1. 2, 3, 4: Or- chestra l, 2, 3, 4: Track 3, 4: Traflic Squad l, 2, 3: French Club 1, 2, 3: Congress Cub 1: Book Club 1: First Aid 1: Red Cross.

Ethyle broke all records for the past eighteen years by having two of her plays produced in the same year. She also had the honor during her sophomore year to have a play, which won second author's prize, produced.

At first the machinery was new and unused, but this was soon overcome after the good guidance of the pals of the plant. In a short time many a worker rated promotion for the skill' ful handling of his tools and all were enthusiastic to rivet into their work. Early in the year an election of class officers took place. Those who were chosen as leaders of our buzzing plant were: Ralph Esposito, presif dentg Nancy johnson, vicefpresidentg Joan Rapo- port, sccrctaryg Landon Parker, treasurerg Vir' ginia DiRenzo and Stanton Coley, directors of social activitiesg Ollie Shepard and Raymond Herman, traffic board officers. Mrs. Norma Courtney was appointed as the new class adviser. At the meeting on January 30 Mrs. Courtney introduced the president, Ralph Esposito, who in turn introduced the other officers. The class motto and colors were announced officially after voting took place on suggestions submitted by both committees. The motto is Onward Ever, Backward Never, and the class colors are scarlet and grey. Also at this Hrst meeting the sophof mores enjoyed the entertainment of their talented kinsmen. The constitution of the class of 1947 was read. Good luck to these new defense workers! Under the smooth guidance of Mrs. Courtney they should hold high their blazing torches through the Final two years and proudly graduate with the flying colors of their Defense Plant.

Second row---left to right.: Mary Lou North, Betty Taulty. COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club, under the most capable leadership of Miss jane S. Stott, can once more boast of a very profitable year. The officers of this year's Commercial 'Club are President, Delia Hamilton, ViccfPresident, Betty Taultyg Secref tary, Doris Henryg Treasurer, Mary Lou Northg and Director of Publicity, Pauline Delle Fontaine. Although the Club's activities are restricted be- cause many of the Commercial girls are engaged in partftime work after school, the officers man' aged to overcome this obstacle and succeeded in arranging a very interesting program for the year. They were aided by the large membership of the Commercial Club which can be accounted for by the fact that the Commercial Club is the only school organization that devotes its activities en' tirely to the Commercial Class. Thus it is the first club that Commercial boys and girls join. The outstanding event on the Club's calendar was an assembly on April 10, attended by the whole school and featuring as guest speaker Mr. Louis A. Leslie Mr. Leslie is the author of the Functional Dictation Shorthand Book , a famif liar 'book to all shorthand students. His appear' ance created a great deal of enthusiasm among the Commercial students. Mr. Leslie spoke on the history of shorthand and also demonstrated blindfolded, his ability to take dictation. 'He later spoke to several of the Commercial classes, and his visit was one that will long be remembered by the students. In March the members of the Club took a trip to Booth and Bayliss and were greeted very cor' dially. They made a tour of the school, inspected the various machines and saw them in operation. The trip served to kindle a spark in each girl's heart to further her education in some business school after graduation. i 67 l Many worthy tasks were accomplished by the skilled typists of the Commercial Club this year. They offered their services to the Visiting Nurse Association at Christmas and very generously addressed 5,000 envelopes for the Christmas Seal Campaign. The typists were again ready and 'willing at Easter to aid in the 'Crippled Childrens Easter Seal Campaign, for which they addressed 7,000 envelopes. One of the tasks they per' formed, which greatly aided Central's alumni, was the typing of former graduates' names on cards to be used in the erecting of Central's War Memorial. The members of the 'Club typed cards of former graduates dating back to the year 1929 to the 'present time. This was a strenuous jofb, but it was accomplished wiih the usual speed, accurf acy, and neatness of the Club's typists. A set of 3,000 envelopes were addressed also for the Americanization program. In the intervals between their many activities the Senior members of the Commercial Club inf creased their skill in typing and shorthand in preparation for the Jeanette L. Matthias awards given at graduation. The awards which are thirty dollars and twenty dolars are provided from the interest on a. fund established by Mr. Lewis B. Matthias, who built up the Commercial Depart' ment and was for many years its head. To inf crease their skill in typing the students engaged in competitive timed tests which helped the girls to strive for a better goal. Thus, a successful year once more was recorded in the annals of the Commercial Club. May the succeeding members of the Club continue to carry on as successfully as the retiring members.

The writeup committee was always on the i'go searching in every section of the plant for material. Some of those who were really on the hall were Eleanor Sapega, and Theresa Bos' chetti. The iest of the work was evenly distrif huted among the remaining memhrs of the com' mittee. This year the typing committee func' tioned under .he direction of the writefup comf mittee. Memhers of the typing committee were: Peggy Dolan, Esther Rodrigues, Palma Bernardi, Rosalind Bernardo, Angeline Sealeri, Sadie Mon' tahan, and Aim Leonetti. l76l This year the Criterion Yearbook has been skillfully enlivcned hy the use of drawings and cartoons worthy of the Defense Plant. The Art Staff was supervised hy Mr. Nelson Gordy. The l'lant's artists who were responsihle for this work were Arnold Tiherio, George Christman, Olive Uppenheim, Barhara Bateman, Peggy Tyre, Bar' hara Nelson, and Doris Donofrio.

The distrihu' tion of the hooks was under the direction of Mr. Good. At the end of a year we all like to look hack at the events of the past. We rememher the things that affected us directly. We, of the Yearhook staff, have seen the Yearhook heing planned. We have watched the months roll hy, and at the same time have seen the Yearhook slowly taking the form of the hook which you now see. A parallel to this might he seen in the huilding of a house. First the plans are made. Then the actual huildf ing takes place. The foundation, firm and solid, is laid. Then, brick hy brick, -the house is conf structed until in the finished house we may see and admire the structure. Now that we have finished our joh, it is with genuine regret that we must hid farewell to the times, good and had, which we have experienced in working together.

Experimenting with a new system of Organiza' tion, tht Club was split into several groups, def voted to the study of individual subjects such as French culture, art, dancing and dramatics. Each group contributed to the programs of the monthly meetings. At 'I highly successful joint meeting in Novemf ber, the Club was host to Madame Hawes, former French instructor and director of the language department at Central. At the meeting, the French movies General De Gaulle, The Next Time We See Paris, and The Maquisw were shown, followed by refreshments and a selection by the French glee club. On November 3, in cooperation with the Spanish Club, the Frenchics held a food sale in the lobby. The centerpiece of the Club's table was a large cake, decorated with the French trif color, and set off with small red, white, and blue pastries, The affair proved to be highly su:cessf ful. As its part in the annual language assembly, the French Club presented a skit depicting a typical Christmas Eve in a French home. Before the assembly, many of its members played the part of carollcrs, as they strolled the corridors singing familiar French airs, At the other meetings of the club, members of the dancing group danced folk dances, several plays were presented by the dramatic group, and the glee club and cultural group presented a prof gram on French opera. A trip to New York cul- minated the years activities. FRENCH CLUB First row -left to right: Betty McCabe, Ethel Jacubovitz. Sarann Snow, Landon Adrienne Fontaine, Eloise Fleischer, VV. Stanton Coley.

Fred Helql, 86 l GERMAN CLUB Witli a grand increase in membership, Central's German Club, directed by Mrs. Carolyn Terf williger, has forged ahead to complete a very sucf cessful year. Monthly meetings, the purpose of which was the furthering of interest in the culture and language of Germany, were held and each member was given the opportunity of active par' ticipation. Commencing each program was the rendition of Die Lorelei, the club's theme song. Under the direction of Philip Corso, the social programs proved extremely interesting and orif ginal, At one meeting, the life and works of Heinriek Heine were discussed. Supplementing the story of Heine's life and the recitation of sev' eral of his poems, Auf Fliigeln des Gcsangsn and Du Bist Vv'ie Eine Blume were sting by the German Quartet. The boys comprising this musical group which has contributed so extensive- ly to the enjoyment of the club are Raymond Montoni, Leo Bloom, Stanley jaworowski, and Edwarul Montoni. At the next meeting thc topic of the month was the life of Schiller and julia 'Graviten read in essay on this poet's life. The musical program consisted of a piano solo, the Overture to Rossini's Willieliii Tell. ln addition scenes from the play Willielni Tell were presented by the thiru year students. In January, the Rhine River and the important part it plays in the life of Germany was informally discussed, In February, Edward Montoni spoke on the life and compositions of Schubert. Mr. Irving Perkins, a talented member of thc faculty, made this meeting especially outstanding by ren' dcring some piano selections cf S-liuberr. At the gala Christmas Assembly, the German Club played an active part by presenting a charm' ing skit portraying a typical Christmas celebraf tion in Germany. Those who participated were julia Gravitch, Susan Spitz, Arleen Penny, Frank Tomaszewski, Robert Levine, and Michael Zatzick. In this dav and age of the sixtyfhour world, it is indeed of the greatest importance to understand and cultivate an interest in the people all about us. Only by studying the folklore culture, and way of life of these people, can we really begin to know them. Witli this thought in mind, it can truly be said that the German Club has ac' complished much this year. The otheers of the year were: president, Gilbert Wztldbtucr secretary, Arleen Penny, tfctsurer, Albert Friedbergg director of Social programs, Philip Corso.

Keeping right on the job, the members- of Cen' tral's Latin Club have enjoyed a particularly successful year under the guidance of Miss Emma S. Day. The clubs paramount purpose has been to promoite the students' interest in Latin culture and language and at the same time to provide for social gatherings As orderliness of mind and ability to organize work are two necessary factors in the successful operation of any large defense industry, so are these qualities essential to the person translating Latin. lt is in the development of this mental alertness that Latin has its true value and far reaching effects. The continuance of this indif vidual mental growth has also been stressed lay the club in all its programs. Because membership is small, a novel plan has been executed for the arrangement of programs, whereby each of the members served on the com' mittee, which was supervised by Ruth Resnick. During the year the club has enjoyed Latin quizzes and the playing of Vici QI have conf queredl whish is similar to our American game, Bingo. At one meeting a Truth and Conse' quensesu program was presented which proved particularly enjoyable. I 88 Happy memories of the Club's Christmas party are retained by all the members. At that time the scriptures were read in Latin, a play was pref sented, and carols were sung. Refreshments, inf cluding a huge cake inscribed with Saturnalia fMerry Christmasj which the club presented to Miss Day, were served. To further add to the occasion, Dr. Sides was welcomed as the guest of honor. Included in each program have been informal talks by a club member on different aspects of Roman life. Among the subjects discussed have been Cupid, god of love, Roman matronionial customs, and the activities connected with the Saturnalia, a Roman festival. Also developed this year has been the Latin quartette, whffve led the entire club in group sing- ing.

Helping to cele' hratc thc fiftieth anniversary of the YWCA were a violinist and accompanist from Central. An' other liroadeast over WlC'C was made in Msiy, this time presenting selections from the Spring Concert sung hy the Clee Cluhs, Another smaller hut no less active hraneh of the Musical Organizations is the orchestra. At al' most every assemhly during the year, CHS stud' ents marched in to the rhythmic heat of the snappy marches played hy the orchestra led by Miss Ducsay. At hoth productions of the Senior lllay and at the Prize Plays, the orchestra ren' dered the ovc rtures and pleasant entr'acte music. Graduation exercises in june will he the climax of the years etlort for the memhers of the orchestra. A new addition to Central's musical projects was the Allllirl Orchestra, formed this year. Composed of a group of talented young ladies, the orchestra played at the GSL assemhlies and i951 also had a special spot in the Musical Festival when they were assisted hy joan Heller, soprano soloist. Directed by Mr. Ernest Bono, the hand did an other hangfup job this year. They put all of our Central foothall fans in the mood at the games, and pep assemhlies. Doing their usual hit for the March of Dimes, they played in january at Cen- tral's day for collecting dimes. The versatility of the hand was shown when, at the Musical Festivf al, they presented a heautiful rendition of Tchaif kovslcy's usleeping Beauty Wiiltz . Officers of the hand were: Captain, Arnold Tiheriog First Lieutenant, Marvin Aaron, and Second Lieu- tenant, Dorothy Dewhirst. Little more is left to he said of the activities of the Musical Organizations, hut may we take this opportunity to thank Miss Ducsay for the time and effort she has so willingly given the students of Central. We hope that the coming years will find her guiding the Musical Organizations along an even more successful path. 'I z is STAGE CREW E239 MI'Sll'Al.

Out of what might have been a disastrous war' time season in football our gallant Central High warriors emerged as the city champions for the first time since 1939. Wliiit looked like a powerful Central team opened the season by downing Norwalk 202, and followed up this victory with a 12 f 6 win over Bassick. This hard fought game was elimaxed by a sensational 101 yard run by Arthur Buck Buehanan, who recovered a fumble and rambled more than 111112 length of the field with the ball. The iirst score resulted from a pass from quarter' back George Hine to right end Fritz Klien. This victory was somewhat darkened by injuries to john Charlami and Arthur Put Smithkowsky. 1 103 The Reillymen were again victorious when they encountered Crosby in the third game of the year, 13 - i 0. The highlight of the game was a 79 yard run by Buchanan a few seconds before the end of the lirst half. An end run by Lou Sorraeo added another six points to the score Central sutlered its initial loss of the 1944 campaign against Rodger Ludlowe of Fairfield 13 f 0, Alex Skultety was just too good for us. An alert and ever threatening Danbury team made good on the last of its several scoring opporf tunities in the final period to drive 25 yards for a touchdown to register the first real upset of last fall, humbling Central 6 f 2. 1 A v v., EQ-as fx 'S A N1 .Zgl E S 4 4 S YQ: Avy? 3 .QW Piv- --M -A A, I ' 5--. , Qwff MA 5.4 -- - 'rf',. w .- rv -5-Q' ATFII TIIAT MAN 'I'IIRIWVINli A III.0I'Ii LI'I'I' I'I' GU PICKING I'I' YARIIAGIC SWEATINIL IT UUT WAITING IN'I'EIil'.S'l'ING SI'EI I'A'I'0RS f 1114 s ,uw-Q awk? .1 'Y - A al v ,X wks BIG' H0'l.l'I BLOCK IT!

Then against a powerful Stamford team our injuryfridden team managed to hold the vaunted Lock City cohorts to a 20 f 0 score. Our crippled warriors licked their wounds of previous combats and struggled through a game at Greenwich where they finished on the wrong side of zz 20 f C score. Then cainc the climax! ln thc prefwinter thaw and mud of Thanks' giving Day Central went into action a decided AAI e- -.. A. s underdog against Harding, but with stout heart the Red and Black emerged victorious 6 f 0, The touchdown resulted from an intercepted pass and a 46 yard gallop by Put Smithkowsky, but the salvation of the Hilltoppers was the brilliance of the aptly coached forward wall of the Red and Black and the superb kicking under fire of the Hilltop gridiron captain, Richard Chick O'Connell. Twice during the stress of battle he pulled his mates out of danger, with his accurate toe, but more than that it was the old spirit of Central team play that again caused the banner of the LyonfTerrace school to fly high as City Champions.

BOYS' TENNIS TEAM Accompanying the tune of the first robin this spring was the organization of the boys' tennis team. This was a diflicult task, because the team found itself in the unenviable position of starting without any players from last year's squad. How' ever, under the able leadership of eofcaptains Ephraim Sparrow and Lewis Stern, it made ad' mirable strides and had a successful season. This was made possible partially through the excellen spirit displayed 'by the members of the team Matches were played with neighboring schols, including Fairfield, Bassick. Greenwich, Stratford, and Ansonia. Several Sophomores were on the team this season and showed great promise. Due to the restricted length of the playing season, the amount of practice time available was limited, yet, in the final account, the team had a good season The home games were 'played at the Laurc Courts. Those on the team were Ephraim Spar row, Lewis Stern, Jack Falk, Donald Moore Victor Unger, Gus Volaitis, Ernest Mogel, George Wcilfe, Bert Kramer, and Mark Karlen. Few tennis players know the 'background and origin of this game which ' IZ i is played with rac and ball, so tor th ' quet cir beneht and for others who 51123 ramer, Robert Saltman. Constan- rnest Moxrel, Mark Karlen. rnwf-left to right' V' . ietor Unger, Lewis Stern, Ephraim Donald Moore, Georxze Raiselis. are interested in the game we will delve into its history. Originally tennis was a French sport known only to the nobility, The game lost its popularity, however, and it was not until 300 years later that it was revived by the English. From England it traveled to Bermuda, and there an American girl, attracted to the game, brought a tennis set back to New York with her. At first it was played by only the wealthy, because the courts were country club lawns and not hard surfaces as today. But as the sport increased in popularity, 1 tennis association was formed and public courts were erected throughout the coun- try. Today tennis is a game forthe millions. This astonishing growth of what was once a game for kings is due to the fact that tennis is now an inexpensive game which everyone can play. lt is also a healthfbuilder-a wonderful spring and fall sport. It is a fastfmoving game that sets the pulses throbbing at a fast tempo and gives the spectators many a thrill. We are so ry th t . a we were able to give only such a limited amount of ' f in ormation about Cen' tral's tennis team, but at the time of this write-up the team had not reached the peak of its season.

PRE-INDUCTION SWIMMING An essential part of our l'l11nt's prefinduclion program was the highly successful courses otiercd in swimming, For fiftcen weeks swimimng classes for hnys werc held every Vkfedncsdaiy, Thursday und Friday mornings, at the Y.M.C,A. Under the guidzincc of Y. M. C. A. instructors, their skill wus greatly improved, The courses included hregist, luck, and side stroke, free style swimming, amd instructions in lifefsaving procedure. At the end of the period, those who had successfully completed their courses were given Red Cross swimming cards. The intensive training and hody condicioning which these hoys have received will douhtless prove to he of great value during their service in the Armed Forces. fl131 TRACK ....

With Coach Ed Reilly at the helm once more, the 'Central baseball team is looking forward to another successful season on the diamond. The Hilltop squad, with such veterans as catchers Toni Napoli and 'iChick O'Connell, Don Champagne at first, Dick Shannon at third, and Ray Hansen at the keystone sack, and Buck Buchanan and George Hines in the outfield, is gunning for the Fairfield County A Conference championship. George Saccone, well remembered for his spark' ling twirling performances of last year, will do the hurling for the Hilltoppers. The Red and Black will tangle with each of the conference teams twice, in addition to various nonfconference tilts. Home games will again be played on Diamond No. 1 at Seaside Park. Alf though the only comment which could be drawn from general manager Frank Slinko was that the future looked bright the Central nine can be counted upon to pack each inning of play with thrills and Hghting spirit, as Red and Black teams have always done, win, lose, or draw.

Ed Dolny, as president, was there, of course. There were some who said hc just claimed he acted the perfect host, but we know he did. Someone persisted in saying he didn'-t, but let me say it was just a lbig lie. We remember also that Jack Falk was there. So were Gus Volaitis and Bill 'Neth. None of them danced a little too often with Dot Judd, and we hope they al-l had a good time. It seemed so short, though, and I wonder why that was. But enough of the Hop. Let's go on. Everyone remembers the assemblies. Each program certainly did honor to those who worked on it The delay was nice and short, and it wasn't hard just to sit and wait patiently. There wasn't a person who wanted to go to sleep. Everyone was glad that each speaker was so interesting, but we were sorry that Dr. Sides never spoke long. Heck, we don't want such short speeches from our principal, and everyone wants him to talk forever. A .few grads came to assemblies. but I can't see why they didn't stay longer. All were enthused and gave reasons why they came back after they were lucky enough to get a vacation. They had a swell time at school. and were sorry to get out But that's the way with everything, I guess. Good times don't last long. just a word about the Prom. There certainly were some slick chicks. I can -safely say there were no queer looking jerks there. But space is getting short. Well, I think we're all glad that everything went so well this year. Everybody! sorry that it's over. Mr. Good's jokes were not 'bad at allg in fact they were as good as Bob Hope's. The kids weren't too out of hand, and I can safely say that even the teachers had a good time. And that's going pretty far. Sincerely yours, an innocent bystander NOTE: Now th-at you have read it through, start from the beginning again and read only every other line. You will be startled wtih the results. 'fi 'll ffll Jill P41 'W Il! W 1115 fl? H ffl? :sl ffli 'I' lf' f 116 1 INDEX A. A.
