The annual recalls in pictures and in story the activities of the student body during the school year. We have attempted to picture this with originality, informality, and beauty. We have done this by planning the theme of our division pages around our school activities. If our annual affords our readers enjoyment, We shall be amply rewarded for our pains. And if in years to come, some of you will find in this record passages that are productive of the pleasure of reminiscence, the savor of old friendships, the editors will consider their ambitions completely realized. 9 1937 --l-Violet and Maize SCHOOL LIFE f'Ay, note that Potter's wheel, That metaphor! and feel Why time spins fast, why passive lies our clay,- BROWNING The potter's wheel is that wheel upon which is placed the clay used to form a beautiful vase which is molded and shaped to suit the taste of the potter. Browning uses this figure of the potter's wheel to apply to the circumstances and environment which the great Potter uses to mold us, the clay, so that our lives may be used to the end of all things-the glory of God. Most of us who are about to graduate have spent the four years of our high school career in this the Chicago Christian High School. Our stay here was a part of the great wheel which God was using to mold us. Our high school years are during the most impressionate part of our life. Per- haps one may say that what happens in this period has more effect on one's later life than the circumstances of any other age. This age may well be called the strain and stress period. Therefore it is especially important that in the high school age, one be surrounded by the right kind of influences. We have spent four years in the Chicago Christian High School. During this time our minds were being developed so that we might have knowledge which might be useful throughout our lives. Perhaps even more important than the acquisition of knowledge is the learning of methods of work. We were taught to use good judgment and clear thinking. How should we cope with life's problems without such equipment? Our lives were greatly influenced by our Christian teachers. They did much more than to instruct us in the knowledge of the subjects they taught. They applied the lessons to practical life so that they began to live before us, and espec- ially we were made to see things from the point of view of a Christian. In history we were made to see the providence of God through which he directs the affairs of the nations to their ultimate end. In science we marveled at the wonders of God's hands and the beautiful order existing in every part of nature. In the study of literature we see something of the greatness of Man's mind. We learned what philosophies of life great men of this world have had, and the Christian philosophy of life was compared to it. All this and much more besides the regular Bible study was a part of that Christian education which was molding our lives. Our Christian teachers were interested in teaching their subjects well, but they were especially interested in each of us as individuals shaped with an immortal soul. Thus we see that our school life is one part of the wheel which the great Potter uses to mold us so that our lives may be of use to him. In this we as the clay are passive. Yet since life fleets, all is change 3 the Past gone, seize today! We must also be active to appropriate unto ourselves the good that we learn from the lessons of the present. We must be active to form philosophies for our individual lives which are in harmony with the teaching of God's word. We are thankful to Cod for the opportunities and privileges he gives us, and our prayer is that we may be used by the great Potter as vessels to his honor. DOROTHY WESTRA 10 1937 CONTENTS DEDICATION APPRECIATION VIEWS IN MEMORIUM ADMINISTRATION GRADUATES CLASSES ACTIVITIES ORGANIZATIONS FEATURES 11 M -lviolet and Maize DEDICATION OSCAR HOFSTRA To Oscar Hofstra with profound appreciation for his whole-hearted interest toward The Chicago Christian High School in general, and with sincerest gratitude for his services to the senior class in particular, we, the graduates of nineteen hundred and thirty-seven, with utmost respect dedicate this volume of the Violet and Maize. For he has been more than a teacher. With unending kindness and untiring energy he has assisted, counselled, and admonished, we seniors through four years of happy school life. For the joys we have experienced, for the obstacles encountered and overcome, and for the ample education received, We seniors give all recognition and apprecia- tion to Oscar Hofstra, and sincerely hope that this book will partly compensate him for his untiring efforts in our behalf. 12 ll1937 APPRECIATION MISS A. COOPER In September, 1933, a class of seventy-five freshmen began their high school career at the Chicago Christian High School. At this same time Miss Cooper came to Chicago and began her four years of teaching in our school. Now these freshmen have completed their high school course and are about to leave. In this leaving Miss Cooper has preceded them by a few months. But the wholesome influence of her life has left its mark upon them. During her stay Miss Cooper was a most excellent teacher. She spent many hours every day in helping to organize new clubs and giving helpful suggestions to those already in existence. The success of the Euphemia and Sorores are due to her guiding hand. Always a close friend of the girls Miss Cooper holds a warm place in their hearts. She is gone but is not forgotten. To her we owe much of the happiness of our four years at Chicago Christian High School, and therefore we the senior class wish to take this opportunity to show a little of our appreciation to Miss Cooper for the fine work she has done. 13 r,,,.,,,,,, -I IWYW ., iolet and M f I I Above: STUDENT BODY IN CHAPEL Right Above: GYM CLASS IN ACTION Right: STUDENTS IN LIBRARY. 1937 l-Violet and Maize Zin il-Blemuriam ELEANOR REINDERS SEPT. 29,1922-JAN. 7, 1937 On Thursday, January 7, 1937, it pleased the Almighty God in his inscrutable Wisdom to take unto Himself Eleanor Dorothy Reinders, one of the students of our school. Eleanor was a little over 14 years old having been born September 29, 1922. She was in her first year of high school. Little did We think that one so young would be taken away. We had hoped and prayed that her life might be spared, but after only a few days of illness the grim reaper of death cut off her life. Our hearts were saddened by her demise, but it is the hope of life eternal that assuages our grief. According to her own confession she was not afraid to die. How blessed it is when death is a falling asleep in Jesus. As a student body and faculty we were again reminded of the brevity and uncertainity of life, and We were reminded that we must work While it is yet day for the night is coming in which no man can Work. . May the memory of her death spur us on to greater usefulness in the Kingdom of God. 16 ADMINISTRATION llviolet ond Maize Congratulations to our graduates of 1937!

ARTICLE I We, the class, hereby give, devise, and bequeath unto the class of 1938, other- wise referred to as juniors, all our second best excuses for tardiness, absences, and other forms of irregularities fthe best we retain, hoping that we may use them in that higher existence to which we are so soon to be calledj held by us as seniors, no matter in what condition and leave to them the task of attempting, however feebly, to be as outstanding a class as we were. We, the class, hereby give, devise, and bequeath unto the class of 1939, com- monly addressed as sophomores, the hope that they shall be as little quiet mice in their schoolrooms always and never bring a blush of shame to C. C. H. S. We, the class, hereby give, devise, and bequeath unto the class of 1940, those modest little inconspicuous bits of life, alias our own freshman class, a private collection of the many tears we have shed over their childish antics. ARTICLE II To Dr. Wezeman: We leave the right to heave one big sigh of relief when we leave these portals for the last time. To Mr. Van Beek: We, with this act, leave you a big red polka dot bandana with which to dry your tears of sorrow at our departure. To Mr. Mouw: We give you the complete copyright rights to your super efhcient machine soon to be invented. To Mr. Swets: We devise for you a brand new mustache composed of exclusively seventeen outgrowths. To Mr. Lanning: We bequeath unto you a special attention attracting device with which you can attract the attention of your typing classes when you wish silence. To Mr. Baar: We give you a choir of little angels with which you may soar on wings of song. To Mr. Hofstra: VVe leave you all the joys of pa-pahood. To Mr. Vander Velde: We bequeath unto you a robot to perform all your numerous errands for you. To Mr. Wezeman: We devise for you a perfect and noiseless silencer to use on your future rebellious students. To Mr. De Vries: We leave you all our rulers and compasses, but carry with us our plane but solid thoughts of you. Ccontinued on page 481 30 CLASSES I fe- frf Inj? A xl My .

By mimeographing, the papers themselves, the staff could print the very latest news. The paper consisted of ten pages except on special occasions. When the MIRROR was turned over to the Junior Class in February, there was a net profit of 354000. 37 i--Violet and Maize Standmg-V. DEKKER, J. BAAR, E. Hoocsrrm, M. VANIJER VELDE. Seated-P.

Having found the plan of having an Intra-Mural Sports program successful, they have carried it out in full this year. At least once a Week We've had games between the different classes and the faculty. These include volleyball and ping-pong. The A. A. sponsored a magazine subscription contest of the Curtis Publishing Company. The result of a one week contest was 9:90 which was divided between the Athletic Association, Music department and library. The A. A. was able to purchase suits for the heavy-Weight team this year from its profits in gate receipts. The Homecoming Alumni games were important factors in this. At the end of the season letters were awarded to the outstanding members of the Heavyweight and Girls' teams in an appropriate assembly exercise. 38 xg ,f 1 N .i ,fl f!

Captain At the beginning of the basketball season most of us were rather skeptical as to the number of games We would win. Only two lettermen returned from the previous season but when the records of the games won and lost were compiled C. C. H. S. Heavies found themselves in third place in the Private School League. But We do not measure their success only in the number of games Won or lost, but above all in their cooperative spirit, sportrnanship on the basketball floor, and fighting spirit in the games.

JAMES BAAR Director Our school is trying to instill in its students an appreciation for good music as well as to teach them the fundamentals of learning. Mr. Baar has really done a marvelous piece of work in the choir this year as he has done in previous years. Anyone who has tuned in on staticn A. U. D. the first period in the morning has heard beautiful and melodious strains which have been abundant proof of Mr. Baar's success. The choir has given concerts in South Holland, Roseland, and Cicero. They have also rendered a few numbers before the distinguished Kiwanis Club. A concert which will never be forgotten, was given April 21 in the Peace Church. The proceeds of this concert helped to finance the tour the choir took, spring vacation. They gave concerts in Grand Rapids, Holland, and Kalamazoo. The choir has many excellent numbers which they have mastered. Besides some beautiful, sacred numbers, they have two snappy Negro Spirituals. Ilm sure that anyone who has heard our A' Cappella Choir sing will agree that we have reason to be proud of them and their director, Mr. Baar. 42 -1937 First Rl11U+HAROLD FENEMA, JACOB HASPER, IiAYMOND VAN DRUNEN, CHESTER ZEILETRA.

MUSIC C.C.H.S. ORCHESTRA AND BAND MR. JAMES BAAR-Director Nothing is quite as effective in arousing a person to his senses as the strains and rythm of a lively march played by a peppy band. Our band has not made any public appearances as yet, but it has Worked diligently and has mastered a few good marches. They have played for us in chapel and the students received their efforts with great appreciation. Our hopes are that in the future our band will come to have the prominence that our choir now has. Those strange sounds that can be heard coming from the auditorium just before dinner are from the orchestra, which is practising at this hour. The orchestra has been reorganized again this year and has shown surprising progress and success. It appeared publicly at the play which was presented by the choir this past winter. Under Mr. Baar's supervision the orchestra and band can not help but forge ahead to better and greater success. 43 Violet ond Maize Stamliny--L. STIERS, J. BAAR, L. WEZEMAN, A. HOEKSTR,A, C.

MOUW . . . . Sponsor Hot dogs and coffee were just part of the good time that the students enjoyed on Field Day. The students spent the Whole afternoon at Ogden Park. Many games were played, and contests in jumping, running, etc., Were held. The group that made this afternoon possible for us was the Student Council. Around this Council the Student Government League is formed. This League consists of practically all of the students in our school. Two persons are elected from each class every ten Weeks. One student is also chosen to represent the student body at large. These students and the faculty advisor, Mr. Mouw, make up the Student Council. Those eligible to vote or hold office in our minature congress are only the members of the S. G. L. Outside of sponsoring activities such as Field Day and Courtesy Week, the duties of the Council are to present the views of the students on any problems that may arise among the students and teachers and to promote a better under- standing between them. Messages of sympathy and condolence were sent, to those of our number who lost dear ones, through the Student Council. The marriages of some of our teachers were also remembered by tokens of our love through this Council. Yes, friends, this is just another phase of our school life. 44 -1937 N. XvANDER LAAN A.

From the North Pole of the Junior-Senior Banquet to the sunny south of the Alumnae Banquet. And who says Euphemia isn't versatile! The aim of this club which is to promote good fellowship and social relations among the students has been fully carried' out. In spite of the atmosphere of friendship and good fellowship at the Junior- Seniar Banquet, the next morning more than one person said Br-r-r, it almost made me shiver to look at those decorations. And as to the program, one look at Miss Cooper as Little Orphan Annie and Mr. Van Beek as Silas Marner would have sent you into gales of laughter. Every alumnae member of Euphemia eagerly looks forward each year to the annual Alumnae Banquet. They always enjoy meeting old school-day friends again. Something new has been sponsored by Euphemia this year: a good old-fashioned box social. James Baar and William Bieze enlivened things greatly by their auctioneering. 50 ---1937 Siam!-L1zafC, OTTENHOFF, G. VAN AMSTEL, J. ROS,AIN, C. ZANDSTNA, A. VAN BAREN, M. NVEZEMAN. Seated-B.

Of course no one can resist such a fad as this, and the girls were overwhelmed with requests for bows. Everyone wore them. Even the fellows found some place to put them, and one could hardly see the girls, hair for all the bows they wore. The freshmen wore green, the sophomores yellow, the juniors pink, and the seniors red. Last year, the fathers of the Sorores Inembers had to stay home, cook the mea-ls, and get the kiddies to bed while the mothers were enjoying themselves at the Sorores Mother and Daughter Banquet. This year the girls decided to give the fatlhers a banquet. It is believed the fathers were even allowed to smoke corn- co pipes. The Sorores started the school year off most successfully by giving a roller skating party for the student body. One bright day in April the air was filled with the fragrance of roses. The gtand on the first floor was surrounded with students who wished to purchase owers. Isnlt swimming fun?'l The Sorores girls certainly think so. They had a Splash party at the Y. W. C.

One noon hour we saw the girls standing in the halls with their trays full of delicious candy. Um! Um! we all fall for that. Acacia showed her courage this year, too. They gave a leap year party to which each member invited a boy from school. If that doesn't take courage we'd like to know what does. The skating parties which they sponsored were huge successes. Early in February these girls had a Progressive Party. You know what fun that is. It was held in Cicero. There were five hostesses and a separate course was served at each home. Beside eating they played games and stayed in Cicero, for the night. Oh, yes, Acacia has been doing things this year. And they have lived up to their aim which is to promote social activities in the school. Thank you, Miss Ramsey for your help. 52 . X . 2 NJ J --- 1 9,-37 First Row-W. BIEZE, M. DECKER, G, ZWART, MR.

The reason is that this lively group of boys composing the Juvenes Club have long had plans for a tobogganing party. Toward the end of the season they finally did get enough snow for their excursion. And what a success it was! The girls who accompanied them talked of nothing else for the next week. Now don't' think that this is all that this group of boys has been doing. Its main aim is the preservation and betterment of the school property. This club was organized a year ago. It consists of a group of peppy and energetic junior boys. They have Mr. Swets for their sponsor. Many ideas for the improvement of our school property are being developed by these boys. In whatever they decide to undertake to this end they can depend on the student body to back them up, for we all have the interest of our school at heart. J uvenes has decided to provide the school with a trophy case which they them- selves will make. To end the school year with a bang they are planning a boat excursion in which the whole school may participate. Go ahead boys we are waiting for it. 53 ----Violet ond Maize First Row-MR. G.

DRAMATICS Realizing that the way one speaks in public determines to a great extent the opinions people form of one, this group of students has organized a club for the special purpose of learning how to use one's voice in a most effective manner. In their meetings Mrs. Lightenberg, their sponsor, tea- ches them such things as how to present a pantomine, how to use the voice in different ways, and what their posture should be while speaking. They are newly organized but it is hoped that they keep up their work. FORENSIC Whether or not the Supreme Court proposal is constitutional is one of the problems which this club has been discussing. This club is organized to promote more interest in dramatics, oratory, and debating. They aim to do this by promoting better knowledge of some of the current topics. The membership con- sists mostly cf junior and senior boys under the sponsorship of Mr. Van Beek. On to better speech and more knowledge of current events! -l-11937 Top Row-J. IJESLINGA, J.

G. Just Us Girls is a club composed of sophomore, junior, and senior girls. It's purpose is to promote school spirit as well as to sponsor entertainment for the school. It was organized in 1935 with the assistance of Rose Dekker. The club was dis- continued for one-half year but was reorganized in '36 under the sponsor- ship of Mr. Hofstra. STAMP CLUB Do you have any more copies of that Edison stamp? When will that new issue be out? These are among the topics dis- cussed by the members of a newly organized club of enthusiastic stamp collectors. The club's aim is to give its members a good opportunity to trade and distribute stamps and to increase their knowledge about the interesting and educational hobby of stamp collecting. Auctions and stamp exhibitions were events on their pro- gram this year. YY ---lviolet and Maize Standing-J. ALBERTS, J. RUSTHOVEN, R. WEIDENAAR, H. LINDEMULDER, C. X7ANDER LAAN, L. RIDDERING, S.

ATLAS SPORTS CLUB We need a trophy case, and we are going to see to it that we get one, seems to be the main thought in the minds of these ambitious freshmen just now. However, their real aim is to support our school in all lines of sports. With such a purpose in mind they could not have chosen a better sponsor than Mr. Koster, the boys athletic director. HARMONICA CLUB No, that isn't a train passing by, It is just one of the effects pro- duced on the harmonica. A group of musically inclined boys has organized this club with harmony and rythm as two of their main objectives. The club is being spon- sored by Mr. Baar. The boys think that all our school is lacking now is a good harmonica band, and they are doing all in their power to provide us with one. --1937 Standing-C. LUTH, A. KLUNDER, H. VANDER LEE, C.

They have made an excel- lent beginning under their sponsor, Mr. Mouw. All of the members hope to increase their knowledge of mechanics by sharing with each other what they already know and by making special studies in this practical Held. Some educational trips were made. VIRGINES This group of sophomore girls has lately been organized with Mr. Hofstra as their sponsor. The aim of the club is to promote good sportsmanship among the students, and no one will say that these lively girls are not intensely interested in sports. As yet these girls have done no one thing of outstanding importance, but they have made all onlookers to their Hfooliesnenvious of their youthful vivaciousness. 5 u --lxfiolet and Maize V L I I i First Row-M.

Quite a few turned out for the event-332, in all, in fact. Our freshie rank has increased to the grand total of seventy-five. And are they dumb! I7eSeniors went into a grand hu.ddle and made Edwin Hoogstra their president. He's been pretty good at it if we do say so, showing we can pick 'em. 24-Another chance for the seniors to pick their man-this time for the MIRROR. After a grand confab, Ernest Rosain was made Editor-in-chiefg and Bernard Huiner, his business manager. 29-Rest of Chicago Christian High SchoolMIRROR staff informed of their positions. Now let them work- 304The student body combined and presented Doctor Wezeman and New Mrs. Wezeman with a telephone table and chair as a wedding gift. OCTOBER 1-The board and faculty followed our illustrious example and gave a party for Doctor and Mrs. Wezeman. 2-Sorores followed their now annual custom of having a roller skating party tonight for the school. 5-An election was held in chapel for the officers of the Athletic Association. When the ballots were all counted, Henry Stob was elected president. 8AThe sophomore girls partyed and initiated the freshies. 9-The seniors presented us with their first MIRROR. It was a spectacular masterpiece and contained exactly ten pages. We're real competitors with the big papers now-even have got ourselves a serial. -Euphemia gave her initiation party for her new members. It was just like a children's party. 10-The new Euphemies frisked about school like little kiddies. They had dolls, and balls and teddy bears and everything. 14-We all remember our Field Days, but this one shall lurk in our memories for many a day for it was sponsored by the Student Council. And oh boy, those delicious hot dogs and stuff afterwards. 20-Our intermural sports finally began. Volleyball also gets under way around here. 22-Yippee! No school, 'cause of the teacher's conference in Grand Rapids. May there be many more of these days. 27-The second MIRROR came out at last. Hercy's still prancing about the pages. 28-Today was the beginning of the Curtis Publishing Company campaign to raise money for our school activities. The Athletic Association sponsored this campaign. 30-The A Cappella Choir made its debut in chapel today for the first time. I reckon it shows some promise of being something. -MIRROR held straw vote for presidential candidate for the student body. Of course, Landon won it! NOVEMBER 3-No school! It only comes once in four years. By now I hope you've guessed the cause was the national presidential election. 6-Here ended the Curtis Publishing Company campaign to raise money for our school activities. The money was divided between the Music Department, the Library, and the Athletic Association. We got a nice crisp check for 396! -Alpacia got their new brown sweaters. They should come in h-andy for those cold days in c ape . 10-Our own MIRROR came out once more. 11-No school! This time for Armistice Day. 12-Films were given chapel of Admiral Byrd's expedition to the South Pole. 18-School Open House for the parents only. It was sponsored by the Student Council, who said that quite a good crowd of parents attended. Maybe it was just as well we didn't go anyway. 20-Sorores held a Father and Daughter Banquet for their papas. The poor dears appreciated the luscious eats they got. 24-In honor of our coming holiday, the MIRROR staff came out with a deluxe Thanksgiving issue o.f the MIRROR. 25-A pep meeting held in chapelfor our forthcoming Homecoming game. 63 Violet ond Maize NOVEMBER CContinuedJ 26-30-Thanksgiving vacation. 27-The Homecoming game. The girls won but our boys lost to the alumni. 30-The seniors, after a long and decisive parley, decided on the kind of ring they wanted. Today 2-3 they ordered them. DECEMBER -The Choir play Big Hearted Herbert was given in the Evangelical Church of Peace. A record crowd attended the performances, numbering about twelve hundred people. 9-MIRROR comes out promptly per usual with its choicy morsels of such and such. 11-The seniors conferred for their last important meeting and elected their Violet and Maize staff . The results made Virginia Dekker the editor-in-chief, and Bernard Huiner, buisness manager once more. 17!In spite of the tests which were drifting about, Acacia bravely gave her Leap Year Party. Did you count the yawns that shone thru the next day? 18-Sorores had their bow day. Some of the combinations that were purchased almost beat a rainbow. 21-Ugh! Report cards came today. I guess the teachers forgot about the Christmas spirit when they gave out the grades. -Pictures were given in chapel about China. No seventh today so we could all see them. 22-Both Euphemia and Choir went caroling during the day. We certainly hope that the poor people who heard the two groups appreciated the high class music to which they were being treated. JANUARY 1-Choir presented its Christmas Concert in Roseland. Its warblings were truly ear filling. 4-Back to the toil and grindstone of our school. How we do miss Maurie's sunny smile. Letls hope he gets better soon. 64On first glance we were quite positive that a store Cjewelryj had been robbed in the vicinity. However, we quickly learned that it was only the graduates that were sporting their new rings, which were only a day old. 84A longer chapel period today because of the death of Eleanore Reinders. 11-No seventh period today for the students to attend the funeral of Eleanor. -The juniors bunched together for the first time to elect their MIRROR staff. As a result Cornelius Vander Laan was the editor-in-chief, and George Zwaart the business manager. I2-The rest of the junior staff was selected and they held a joint meeting with the senior staff to try to Ulearn the ropes from them. Henceforth until the end of their high school lifes the senior will no longer take up their pens for the sake of the MIRROR and will rather devote all their time and efforts to our brilliant annual. l34Mr. Mouw took his physics class to the Jackson Park Museum to aid their study. Then tonight Acacia gave her first skating party of the year to a record crowd. 19-The seniors gave us their last efforts in the MIRRORQ from now on, old dears, you may lay your blame on the shoulders of those juniors. 22-Euphemia finally got her junior-senior banquet off her chest 5 a very good crowd attended the delicious Heats and side-splitting amusement that was offered. Pictures were even taken by Groot and Company. 27-Chapel was held after school as this was Miss Cooper's last day with us. She was quite quivery, but I suppose that is to be expected. She received some lovely gifts. 29fNo school for us to recuperate from the strain of the tests. 1.4 FEBRUARY First day of the new semester. Once again we were greeted by quite a crop of freshies as we entered these portals. 54Today the juniors came out with their first MIRROR, which, we admit, could have been WOFSGT. 94The poor Cicero bus was quite crowded tonight as 'twas on the night Acacia had her pro- gressive party in that little suburb. 12-Lincoln's birthday today. No school for the rest of C. C. H. S. but today the seniors had to go downtown to watch the little birdie. Some fun. 64 18 22 1937 -First all-club period. Such a sprinkling of new clubs that have sprung up for this period. -Now today was Washingtonls birthday as one glance at the date will tell you. A day of rest for the school as a whole, but the rest of the grads had to go down to do or die for the sake of their vanity fmore picturesj. 24-Pictures were Hrst taken at school of clubs and such. -MIRROR came out again. Today they inaugurated their new mimeoscope so the pictures were too good to be true. Oh well, the Jrs. are coming along all right. 25-Election was held for new Student Council members. MARCH 1-Plictures were taken again. The faculty just doesn't appreciate our little activities' being s own. 3-Today the whole annual staff said their little pieces in chapel for their masterpiece. fTwas a lovely sight to see all these Srs. on the platform for us. This day also started their two weeks subscription drive. 4-All club period again. It's all right and all that but Mother doesn't take kindly to the idea of having her little darling coming home at this late hour. 8-Beginning of Picture Week for the rest and all of the school. All these candid cameramen underfoot get under our skin. They get some of the worst poses. -Reverend Lubbin spoke and showed pictures in chapel. 9-The MIRROR'S out again, my dears, the MIRROR'S out! . 11-Report cards came out, We wonder how long the faculty is going to force us to submit to the ruling of two unexcused absences getting a F. We've never seen so many F's! 16-Tryouts for the senior play The Family Upstairs g from all we've seen and heard of it, it's going to be very good, funny etc.-in fact, all you want in a play. 19-Special chapel held in the afternoon by Doctor Wezeman because of the school explosion in Texas. 22-'Twas on this fateful day that the seniors were fitted for their robes. It was surprising how many big heads there were. You would never have guessed it. 24-This evening Acacia and Sorores united to give a splash party for their alumnae at the Rose- land Y. The night was dark and stormy, but these brave girls for the most part ventured out to splash. 25-Euphemia gave a banquet for her alumnae tonight. The decorations and program were supposed to follow the idea of a Southern spring. 26-No school today because it was Good Friday.

Say thank you. 6-Another issue of the MIRROR came out today. 14-The letters were given to the boys, and girls' basketball teams. Fifteen boys' letters were given out and eight letters to the girls. Makes a nice showing of our school colors. 15-Club period again. 16-Girl Reserves sold school penants for only a nickel. Now people really know where we come from. 19-Swets lugged the seniors downtown to the library there to start that distracting period known as the making of the term paper. 20-Once again our MIRROR came out. -Acacia gave another skating party, this time for only the school. 21-The A Capella Choir gave its concert at the Evangelical Church of Peace.
