We mention it here because, as has been the custom for the past few years, a girl was chosen from the senior class to represent our school in the c-ounty festival held at Geneva. From five beauteous seniors Isabelle Douglass was chosen as our queen with Betty Kaufman her alternate. We find some of our seniors still in the sportlight. Bud Benham and Jelly Leonard are carrying off tennis honors, while t'Curly Covel, Jack Claw- son and Jimmy McCarthy are giving their all to baseball. Everything now seems to remind us more and more of graduation. Seniors can be seen all over collecting money from fellow seniors to pay for invita- tions, caps and gowns and so on. It won't be long now before, clutching our diplomas in our hands, the Class of 1941 will be on its way to tackle life in a big way, and then world-watch out! Despite the fact that we realize we will probably never again be sheltered as we have been in high school, we hope we can keep our heads and keep going until we reach that success for which we are all striving. Now we would like to reverse the proceedings and instead of receiving the good wishes, we'd like to give out a few. First of all, the 'teachers who have stood us for the past four years have our best wishes for continued good teaching. We think their hardest days are over because they have stood the test-us. The rest of the students ought to be smooth sailing. For their won- derful help and advice we thank them all from the bottom of our hearts. Next we would like to thank the kind people who have made high school so enjoyable for us-the friends who are graduating with us and the others whose time will come soon. Lastly. our thanks go to Mr. Lomber fwe hope we've not meant too many added gray hairs! and the other mem- bers of the school staff. You've all been marvelous, and we appreciate it. To the junior class which is about to fill our place we can only say that we wish them all the luck possible and hope their senior year will be a happy one. . . . Virginia Abbey The Juniors Say The last lap, and just one more hur- dle to jump-EXAMS!! We'll clear it, because we'll be spurred on by the thought of being seniors next year. Our Junior Prom was wonderful and suc- cessful. Chick Edmonds and his Roch- ester orchestra furnished the music. The decorations were different and very clever. In the center of the gym was an artificial pool. Flowers, stars and colored lights made a pretty spectacle, thanks to the capable prom committee. History repeats itself! Two years ago the band assembled early in the morn- ing on the lawn before starting for a national contest. That time they went to the New York World's Fair. This year we watched from the windows as they started for Atlantic City. Some non-band members even took their breakfast outside and killed two birds with one stone as they watched the national champs get ready to leave.

An-d then-well, you know the rest. They're still national champions. As this school year closes up, we'll let the seniors have the spotlight, but next year we'1l be on deck for some big happenings. So until next year this ls good-bye and good-luck from all the juniors to the graduates. . . . Jean Fairley 1-iill Facts A bout F rash As the sun sets on another school year, we freshmen flnd that we have a great deal to chow about. For -the seniors, many of whom won't be with us next year, this ls the -end, but for us it ls almost the beginning of a grand, glorious career. Here is a summary of the year's events: FALL: The results of the election of officers were: William Cobbett, presi- dent: Esther Cross, vice-president: Ruth Cappon, secretary-treasurer: and Donald Smith, Student Council repre- sentatlve. In the line of sports, Billy Jacque received his letter for his good work in soccer. WINTER: Sports were the major in- terest of the boys. Paul Brooker and Joe Witzel served on the second bas- ketball team. The swimming team was the goal ol' Bob Spencer, Richard Hamm, Bill Cobbett and John Kurze- jeskl. SPRING: A number of freshmen went with the band to Atlantic City and the preceding competitions. On the track team we had Edgar Tears. Donny Smith, Joe Witzel and Harold Fletcher. Bill Cobbett, Jack Rushmore, Nick Valvano and Augy Placito went out for baseball, Bill Cob- bett also played on the tennis team. Now that summer rolls around, our main thoughts are exams and vacation. We'll let a few thoughts slip out about the seniors and we wish them lots of luck. And so-until next year, when your sophomore reporter takes over, this ls your frosh reporter signing off. . . . Norma Cougevan T That man may last, but never lives, Who much receives but nothing gives: Whom none can love, whom none can thank, Creations bl-ot, creations blank. . . . Thomas Gibbons THE ACA DEMIAN So homore Activities This is about the last chance we have to say good-bye to-the seniors and to wish them good luck for the years to come. The P. G.'s are leaving us for good, but maybe some of the seniors like school well enough to spend an- other year at C. A. The coming year will see us as juniors, setting a good example for the sophomores and frosh. We are glad to have our share of sophomores in the band that holds the National Championship. The whole band is to be congratulated for their splendid work in Atlantic City. In the sports world W-e are repre- sented by Bob Pease, Art Canfield, Dave Spencer, Eugene Cole on the track team, and in baseball we have Bill Turner, Dominick Loiacono, and Bob Boyle. They are coming. What? Why, REGENTS, of course. As if you didn't know. We're all clasplng our lucky charms and wislring on passing loads of hay, for it will mean a lot to us if we pass them. We hope this little re- minder will bring you out on top in your exams. Good-luck to you all, and especially to the seniors. . . . Eddie Melville Even Post-Graduates Th ink As the school year draws swiftly to a close, we post graduates are engulfed by a blanket of gloom. We realize for the flrst time that our days at C. A. are numbered. Unlike the seniors we can't look forward to returning, but instead we must brace ourselves for the College of Hardknocksf' Five years of preparation have taught us not to tear the future, but we can't leave with- out a feeling of regret. This current year has been a mem- orable one for all of us. Our pride in our school was inflated by the opening of the new athletic field, a model of landscaping and efficiency. We saw C. A.'s trophy case become congested with the addition of three awards won by the basketball team. The band again showed its worth by capturing national honors for our school, A fit- ting climax for the year would be an- 37
