llvmnriva The soft, sweet strains of Class Day music and the smell of spring flowers of only a few hours previous, sent chills of excitement through one weary graduate. Tomorrow I could sleep, but tonight I could only reminisce on those happy, and not too happy days, that envelope the history of the class of 1950. Freshman Day-how silly we were, and how frightened!-our proud seniors . . . the reverence with which we made our irst retreat-its lasting impression . . . 'QI-Ielen for Queenn . . . decorating the convent Christmas tree, a tradition we observed for four Decembers . . . our first school dance! Three days to turn the auditorium into a festive ballroom . . . how enthusiastically we challenged the other classes in campaigns and tournaments . . . Senior picnic, and at last-a tearful Class Day . . . Yes, our class seemed destined to be the most excitable one ever to envade C.K.S. How easily laughter, anger or tears came!-but probably this was more in evidence during our sophomore year. What a year! Our first spook house . . . the weiner sale that brought in sixty-five dollars for the window fund . . . that thrilling day we won the basketball tournament in spite of rain . . . our school hikes . . . hamsters, turtles and goldfish! . . . blue hats and the tennis championship to show for the bus trip to Macon when school spirit ranked supreme! . . . Music Appreciation . . . the swimming party at McGaughey,s . . . fun for a whole year with very little responsibility. It all came our junior year-no longer underclassmen!!! . . . Oscar . . . the beautiful swimming trophy-our first . . . long hours baby sitting with Reggie, THE KING'S PAGE . . . our enthusiasm that invariably ended in punishment . . . our first Southern teacher, consequently our first Confederate flag . . . that memorable trip to Athens- the trophy from the ten-cent store . . . Beverly's breakfast for Phyllis . . . the Cv Campaigns to better our conduct . . . Father McDonough playing Santa Claus! . . . campaigning for Babyface . . . our beautiful junior-senior luncheon-the dolls, the toasts, the song dedicated to the seniors . . . cheerleading . . . senior rings-and that long awaited year just around the corner!!! . . . We undertook so many things our junior year! Now we are seniors!! . . . sophisticated? . . . out to lunch!! . . . the SCEPTER-and of course, ads-we showed a definite lack of salesmanship . . . square dancing . . . our confusion where the future was concerned . . . spontaneous parties . . . M. B. Malcolm . . . stupid, me stupid? . . . that indefinite varsity . . . how hard it was to keep secrets! . . . concerts . . . 'fjeremyn . . . our last retreat, given by Monsignor . . . Saturday school in the form of play practice . . . that priceless volleyball game . . . the fabulous fashion show . . . the parties our underclassmen gave us . . . preparations for graduation and Class Day . . . Class Day colors and music . . . and finally that terrific moment when ruffled formals pass under flowered archways and sweet girl graduates look their loveliest. The class of ,SO, a little sad, closes its history! . MARTHA MYERS '5 0 20
