I looked the girl all over And finally I .did come to That it was my old pal, Ruth Grindle That I had been talking to. Ruthie Toots was the livliest one in the buneh. How could I ever forget, I stuttered and managed to apologize. Haven't got over it yet.

Mxlawlilgllig FRESHMAN RECEPTION The Freshman Reception was held last fall shortly after school began. The Opera House was decor- ated by Frances Dearborn to repre- sent a corn field and farm yard com- plete with chopping block and axe, corn stalks, apples, pumpkins, squashes, etc. The stage was alight with the polished faces of the new comers, as they went through their routines. Some of the high lights of the even- ing were: a diet of angleworms by the Marshall brothers, Kip Burkett chasing Stephen McGrath around with an axe, the Whirling Ryders and the Dainty Dew Drops. Mr. Shibles was going to honor us with the speech, Mother Murphy's Men- tal Meatballs -but owing to an ac- cident he left his notes at home. He substituted with an oration on Cows. Mr. Hammond spoke for two minutes on the pleasing subject of Nothing Freshman Week was observed by the girls wearing no cosmetics, neckties, boys' garters, two differ- ent types of shoes. The boys wore shirts back-side to, odd shoes and stockings, and green neckties. Both girls and boys were present- ed with drooling cups which were hung around their necks. All in all it was a very pleasant week for all but the Freshmen. The Clean-up Committee enjoyed a lunch the next day from the left over refreshments. -CHS- SENIOR PLAY The Senior Play was presented in the Camden Opera House, March 19, 1943 to a capacity crowd.
