Grave Old Seniors: The highlight of a stude's dream. Suddenly our suits are too small, head seems heavier and our hats smaller. lt's difHcult to slick the hair now-the mirrors are much too low. Oh, well, give the freshies a break.,Gad! they're getting smaller each year. It's hard to become accustomed to the new surroundings. We really feel lost without those gloomy classrooms and silent corridors. No longer does Hey, boy! echo through the study and hallways. The old traditions are still fresh in our memory and never shall be erased! But, we'll make new tradition! There's grass here: yes! green grass! No screech- ing of breaks, no honking of horns, or rat-tat-tat of drills. All have passed away. Class organization starts. Nate Raiken swam to the top of the heap in the presidential elections: George Raymond, Vice-President: Elmer Sayres, Secretary, and Milton Iacobson in clean-up position. The Prom and Banquet Committees spring into action. Book treas- urers are snooping about in search of victims. Things are beginning to roll and to gain momentum. The situation looks grave. In a few more months it will all be over, but that's in the future. But now, it's class meetings, debates, arguments, and hot air. Committees are appointed for this, for that. Dues are pouring in? More! cries Iacobson. More shekels pour in. Hey, Freshie! you may not know it, but you're buying two tickets to Dulcyf' Pictures, class pictures, group pictures, Senior speech-give me liberty or give me Gettysburg. Any one will do. Examinations, theses, speech, prizes. Hamlet, Shakespeare. corporations, finance, speculation. Where is that aspirin! Oh! my head. Got to brush up on that new dance step- the Prom will soon be rolling around. Sure, I'm going: wait 'til you see her: boy, what a girl! The time is getting shorter . . . and shorter. We're coming down the home stretch--really feel glad that it will soon be over, but 'have a sick feeling in the stomach-a dull ache- must be the Monday'hot- dogs Iwe'll sure miss theml. Tomorrow is assembly-farewell assembly. Seen a thousand fel- lows get up and walk out: guess we can do it too. Where, oh, where are the grave old seniors? Where? Glued to their seats immobile. Got to go . . . just got to . . . at last - it's our turn! But the Freshies still ask, Where are the grave, old Seniors? Well, Freshmen! . . . Safe now in the wide . . . wide . . . world.
