Calendar Next years Broad- caster staff was chosen on March 11. Journalism staff tried their best to keep it a secret until the paper came out. Junior class rings arrived on March 16, seniors and juniors shore squabbled over which was the purtiest. This was the first year that juniors had ordered theirs. Than on March 23, the athletic banquet was given in the high school lunch room, in honor of the 1942-43 basketball team and their manager. Senior sneak day, April 14, was one of the days that them thar seniors pulled a fast one on the rest of the school. They went to Opeachee Park and I guess they really had a feast. Baccalaureate on Easter Sunday began a week of thrills for the seniors. For services at the Union Congregational church the seniors appeared for the first time in cap and gown. Senior-Faculty breakfast was a hectic affair Wednesday morning. Most of us were too sleepy yet to do much eating. Then at senior assembley that same afternoaa the class willed and propheired to the de- light of the underclassmen. Athletic and scholastic awards were made then too,. Ah, commencement• Will we, the seniors, ever forget the thrill of that night? The chorus helped out in our presentation of Ballad for: Americans11 • Margie Hubbard, co-valedictorian with Geraldine Clocksin, read the maledictory, and' Gloria Gundlach, the salutatory. Another year is gone. And, man alive, it shore wor3 some year! Zoe Dague—
