For the seniors it has passed too quickly? The last few weeks have been busy-filling out appli- cations forvcollege, trying to complete the annual, and preparing for commence- ment. W A There is so much for us to remember. There were the hectic days before the homecoming game, the crowning of the queen, and the big dance. There was the -annual Hi-Tri dance and the m-ad scramble to ask a boy. Then there was all the Work that day trying to get the gym ready. We think of all the times We -were sent to detention study hall or put on deportment, but also those times when we made the honor rolls. We recollect how we stayed up all night after the prom and could hardly keep our minds on studies the next day. Then there were the terrible things one endured for G. A. A., C club, and Masque and Gavel initiation and how the moe serious ones im- pressed us. We pleasantly recall the many friends we have made, the things we learned in our classes, and the experiences we have gained. We will always remember these experiences and our gratitude to the faculty of Clear Lake High School for preparing us for the future.

HI - LIGHTS STAFF This year for the first time in several years, Clear Lake High School had a school newspaper. Subscriptions were sold at the beginning of the year and copies could be purchased each time the paper was printed. An edition of the Hi-Lights appeared each week in the local newspaper and the students received a specially printed copy every two weeks. The newspaper 'has helped give students who are interested in news- paper writing a worthwhile experience. Mr. Howard Noble was the advisor for the first semester, and Mr. I. D. McCallum was the advisor for the second semester. 28 HONOR SOCIETY Miss Chambers, Mr. Weaver, Lester Nichols, loyce Lien, Ioan Barlow, Mary Furleigh.
