'Bafor SENIOR SPECIAL V The proceeds from this Senior Special will go toward buying a mimeograph machine for the Commentator Staffs of the future Senior Calendar The Senior Calendar has been arranged as follows: Kay 3—Kid party 10- Rchcarsal for Baccalaureate 11- Forroal party at Baptist Educational Build- ing 13- Baccnlaureate sermon 14- Rchoarsal for Class Night 15 Class Night 16- Class Day 17- Lnhearsal for graduation 18- Graduation exorcises Seniors Thank Faculty As tho close of school draws near, we, the seniors, wish to acknowledge our thanks to all tho BfcHaS faculty. I am sure that all of us can look back and remember some small incidont that occurred during our high school yoars that brought us a little trouble. Think hard, and you mil always remember tho toucher who gave you a helping hand, and then the troublo was no more, Wc will always recall contain favorite re- marks usod by our toachors. For oxample, Mr- Adaro in Biology Class when asked a question that ho is not quito suro of, I'm not going to tell you. Tho reason I’m not going to toll you is simply that I do not knowc Tho Journalism students can surely remembor Mrs, Elliott saying, Students, lot's plan tho paper for next week. These arc just a few of the many, many romarks that will ring in our oars after graduation. And when a group of ex-seniors moct3 to talk over old memories, you, tho faculty, can be Quito suro that your names will bo among 1 the pleasant thoughts. Pools of laughter could bo hoard from the group if someone v cro around to hoai .it. Probably the answor to this cuebiiat would be one of the boys recalling tho many trips he mado tc the office (and trying t.a romombor tho exact rcasoi why ho was sent ouch time.) Some boys of our class may not be able to moot with the bunch, though, I'm suro as they lio on their 0.1. bunk and think of their school days, a snilo will slowly spread from their hoart to thair face. We also wish to thank you for being so lonicnt in grading cur test papers. You may not have know’ it, but th-t made tho fiano in our hoarts burn brighter and gave U3 mure of a desire to i.iukc good not Just for our sokes, but for yours, too. Vie cannot sanbion everything that we wish to thank you for, but just remember that we will nov- er forget you and your kind deeds. Gey Allen Perhaps you have wondered why we chose the col- ors green and gold on which to print this edition of tho Connontutor. Since it was dodientod to the' seniors, and their class colors are green and gold, wo thought it appropri to to use these colors.

Kcr mother died in 1906. On Sunday, May 9, 1908, she told a friend, whom she had invited to remember with her tho anniversary of the death of her moth- er, of her desire to dedicate a day to all mothers Before tho next an iversary camo she had interest- ed many individuals and organizations in the ob- servance of the second Sunday in May as Mother's Day. On May 10, 1913, a resolution passed the Senate and House of Representatives dedic ting tho sec- ond Sunday in May to the memory of tho best mothci in the world, your mother. This year Mother's Day comes on May 13, which is also the date of,our baccalaureate,;so it has a double moaning for us, Maiy E. Wagner Wo are all proud of the boys formerly of B.H.S. who are now serving Uncle Sam in the various bran- ches of tho service all over the globe. Some of these who, had they not interrupted their educati- on in order to bear arms in defence of their coun- try, and who would be Seniors this year, arc: V - Cont'd on page 12 t J. SOCIETY Jihior and Senior Banquot Glowing cahdles, beautiful music, and a happy atnosphoro greeted the lucky seniors who wore hon- ored by the Juniors at a banquet given in the high school auditorium Friday hight, April 13, 1945. Generally onjoying themselves were couples Adolloa Dickens and Harold Norvell, Lolita Hofflngton and' Horace Ashabrannor, Patsy Veazoy and Solwyh Ligon, Elsio Loo Christianson and Leroy Eliott, Opal Ad- ams and Harold liatcrn, Mac Hammond and Carolyn Ko- lodzio, and liaiy Wagner and Jack Hahn. These axa just a few and thoro wero lots of stags The program was clever and just right. Wo liked the entertainment offored by the band from out of town, and wero very glad that wc;could danco until twclvo o’clock. I would liko to thank all of you Juniors for a swell, tine, and to toll you that wo will NEVER for- get it Ranito Snith Hore and Thoro Ronanco seems to bloom out of no where these days Spring brings boys end girls out of their shells with their eyes wido open and the car full of gas, (?) The Concession Building seems to bo the desired spot for partios those days. Tho little birdie tells me that a few new romances have blooncd there. Not giving away just who I an referring to, 1 11 montion only a few nones, such as, liildrod HcPhaul Jorry Daugherty, Gay 1 airier and LoRoy Atkison. Burnet boys arc quite timid when it conos to ash- ing girls for d tee, but a fow did rake up onough courage to ask someone to tho Jr.-Sr. Banquet. Ona could readily tell what'girls had datos bocauso of the glean in their cyos, and tho way they watched the boys while dancing with other girls. Tbat’B a pretty good idea, too. As usual, before tho even- ing ended, several other;couploo wore fornod. It wouldn’t be possible for nc to say just whether tho girls wero responsible or thc_boys, Ask G.O.B. and K.H. Cont’a on page 6 5 Here and there I’m wondering if yon all have noticed that Cricket B. and Mildred l,T. hnvo boon hitting it off pratty well here latoly Y ith ex-seniors. • - Mary Joan Boasc soems to have left her heart' in our neighboring town of Bertram.

FLASH: One of my secret workers just told me that net long ago Earl Clondcnncn and Patsy Jo St .rk were seen at the movie together. Here's hoping it is thc.st rt of a beautiful friendship. In as in all other schools thes days, wo find several waiting fer my boy friend's return girls. Some, we would be safe in saying, have already secured a wedding band fer the third finger, left hand; I am referring to Lucille Kahn Adana and Clcndina Jarvis Chosebro. And it nay not be tco long before a certain Senior blond (Lolita) and a Merchant Marine (Roland) become Hr. and Mrs. Hero: wishing you luck. Sailor I To end this little bit of so-called gossip. I'm going to say that I'M very ■proud of the High School boys and girls. Don’t faint, readers-but they have bcon regularly attending church services'. The only trouble is that I hope they didn't hnvG-_tbo°tummyachc on Tuesday night, f. j Juvenile Junior Jangles The jdninrs express their re0ret for the loss of four of their active members. Van Haile, Charles Harrison, Ray Wood, and Eudgy Dau.htery. Van has enlisted in the navy, while Charles has enlisted in the merchant, marines, Ray is now working hear Cherokee, Texts, and Budgy is doing his utmost to pass the test for hia drivers license. The juniors also wish to express their deepest appreciation for the splendid co- operation shown to then’ by the faculty, room mothers, and sophomore lrls in prep- aration of the Junior-'Senlor Banquet, The responsibility of writing the news for the Commentator has fallen on the shoulders of the juniors. Temporary editors have been elected as follows: Editor, Horace Ishabranner; Assist,nt Editor, Adolle Dickens; Society Editor, Mildred McFhaul; Feature Editor, Ernestine Bible; News Brief Editor, Harold Matern; Sports Editor Dale Stapp. During a brief class meeting, it was reported that approximately ’42 remains in the tank. All members attending the meet- ing decided to donate ten dollars to help pay for a mimeograph machine end have the remainder for senior rinrJs next year. We wish we could trade for: Maxine florris's expressive blue eyesf Hollis Bak- er's wit, Charles Cranford’s winning smile, jila Rea Owens’ grooming quality, James Smith's crihuterm for V Pl9 Odell Mallett's musical ability, Calvin Lewis's speaking ability, Frances brook's and Ernestecn Ellis's friendship, end Alton Weeks's and Paul Lawson's good nature, Carolyn Kolodize DON'T FORGET TO KEEP BUYING WAR BONDS 0 junior--cont'd from page 7 Have You Noticed?

Wo hope the year 1945 will bring lastl- ing peace to the world __________________Nancy Chamberlain_____ 10 .'t am i Ridiculous Fashions Glancing around the campus of B.H.S. reveals that both the boys and the girls indulge in some fads and fashions that look pretty 3illy. A visitor from another country or an- other age, dropping in for a days visit, might well suppose that the girls had ex- changed thefr cr.owning glory” for frizzy rats' nests.’ There oeems to be no such thing these days as smooth and shining hair. It has all been baked in the per- manent wave machines at the local beauty shoppes until it resembles the kinky mop3 of tho wild man of Borneo, To look over tho collection of fuzzy pompadours and shoulder length artificial curls bending over their books in the classroom makes one wish for some good old fashioned straight hair. In spite of tho fact that most of it looks as if it had never seen a comb, tho girls seem to spend plenty of time arranging it. Most of the boys, on the other hand, spend no time whatever combing their hsira It la just about a3 disorderly looking as tho girls'. Some of the boys solvo the difficulty by getting burr haircuts, whici don't exactly help their beauty but make it impossible to tell whether a comb has been usod or not. Perhaps it is not oxactly fair for a boy, who naturally enjoys the comfort of trousers, to criticlgc tho girl3 for want- ing to wear slacks or blue jeans, but if those aamo girls would take one good look in the mirror, they would havo to admit that thoy look better in skirts. Sweater: arc fine, but why do the girls have to put them on backwards and push the cuffs up abovc the clbow3 ? _til — ■ ■ --■— .— ■■ ----------- - The boys try to match the girls1 sloppiness by coming to school wearing shoes that have never seen a brush or eolish, and with fingernails with several ■.eres of dirt under them, to say nothing ov ears you could sprout corn in and fin- gernails with several acres of dirt under them. If the girls must wear lipstick and nail polish to school, it would bo nice if they would keep it in good repair. Too ct'ten their laps have only a thin outline of red left on the outer edgos, with tho remainder licked off and tho lacquer on their nails has chipped until It looks ex- tremely weather-beaten. I never could quite understand v hy th3 boys roll, thoir pants legs up short, unless it is to shew how dirty their socks aro, or to reveal the manly hair on thoir legs. In one lost gripe, I will confoss that I would llko to give a good sharp '‘•weak on some of those 3illy car rings that dangle from the girls1 picrcod oars.

The first change is aimed at the unpopular oat of bounds kickoff. The first kickoff out of bounds is considered meroly an accident, a second kickoff out of bounds gives tho receiving team the ball at the 40-ya d line from which it was kicked. Second, forward passes oro to bo legally thrown from any placo behind tho lino of seri ;imago. Third, substitutos may alfil- ially report to any official instead of just. t;.o umpire? Fourth, tho Center-in passing tho toil- must not havo any part of his body head of r,ho ball at its forward point and his feet must be be- hind tho ball. Tho last change clarifios and st- rengthens tho rule governing the use of the bands and arms in blocking. v The girls' volloy ball toam was composed of the following members: Lucille Adams, Mayno Scog- gins, Opal Aanms, Hazol Heine, Ernestine Biblo, Beryl Brea?eelo, Cricket Beker, El3io Loc Christ- ianson, Mildred Hahn, Patsy Veazey, Bottio Bond and Francos Brooks.
