This was the year in which we took the I.Q. tests. They were hard, and now we understood why classes in previous years had struggled with them. It was a salutary experience for our egos, though. We had come back to school that September with the superiority complex that was expected of an upper classman. But the I.Q. tests took some of that out of us. We dis- covered that we were like everybody else- In December came those early morning glee ' club rehearsals for the Christmas Concert. So many of us were working after school to help with the war effort that we could no longer practice in the afternoons. We contributed in other ways to the war effort. . . Our financial support was spurred on by the Triple Threat Drive. This was a campaign to collect enough money from the sale of War Stamps and Bonds to pay for three types of jeeps-on land, in the air and on the sea. The sum was raised, and we felt glad that we had contributed our small share toward victory. Later on in the winter iiNight Must Fall,7 was staged by the dramatic department. Its spine- tingling suspense kept us on the edge of our seats throughout an almost professional perfor- mance. Some of us were understudies or helped on the stage crew to make the play a success. Many service stars, two more in gold, were sewn on the Service Flag this year. . . The war was coming very close to us now. Our own classmates were beginning to leave, steadily. We missed them, but felt proud, for we were aware of the sacrifice involved in their going. J UNIOR CLASS OFFICERS President ................................

FELICIA DOMALESKI .Sjenior C7 Adtory add Senior Cfadd Vk Before we knew it we were making appoint- ments for our senior class pictures. This meant that we would soon be spoken of in the past tense. Among us there were those who were ambitious and anxious to get out and make their way in the world and those who were equally ambitious and enthusiastic but wished to linger a while to do more for Scott. We stepped into the preceding seniors7 shoes taking over their responsibilitieseand fun. I think most of us will remember it as one of the best years of our life. Everyone looked up to us for so much that we felt unless we worked diligently every minute we would be responsible for the whole schooPs ceasing to function. Al- though the war had its sobering effect we were happy that our football team had done so well, that the bonfire was back, that our canteen, the Monkey Wrench, was organized, that the parent- teacher-student production, 66Our Town,77 was such a success and that we had a Senior Prom. But our main happiness was in having realized a goal. This last year had tied up all the loose ends and now we were ready to meet an adult world and take our place in it-wwe had matured mentally and physically. In one way we were like all other high school graduates-we mar- veled at the way the time had whizzed by. However, in other ways we were different. We were not unaffected by being the first class to have spent its entire four years in high school during a war period. We had a graver outlook, but the years behind us had prepared us to meet our responsibilities with courage. So we looked to the future, each of us confident that we had the qualifications for success in the brighter days to come, and determined to make our contribution to a better world as significant as that made by our classmates under arms.
