Colors: Green and White F lower: Ivy fljidelityl The mid-century graduating class of Corrigan High School can look back on a happy and busy year filled with varied activities. The main objective of the class was producing the l95U Blue Quill , and all members who had a part in its production Worked diligently toward this goal. The class will never forget the assistance ot all others who helped them. Although the class was busy throughout the term, their last year in high school was not all work and no play, for members enjoyed a number of interesting social activities. The class had a Christmas party in home room the day school was dis- missed for the Christmas holidays. The room was decorated with boughs of holly, and an attractive arrangement of red candles, sprays of pine and silvered cones centered the serving table. At one end of the table was a crystal punch bowl and at the other end was a large white cake, embossed with Seniors, l95U . Seniors had two parties in the band hall. Dancing and games furnished entertainment. Refreshments were cake and punch. One of the most enjoyable entertainments ever given tor local high-school seniors was the Valentine banquet given by the Baptist Women's Missionary Union. A colorful Valentine motit was accented in table appointments, and a delicious chicken dinner with all the trimmin's was served. An interest- ing program was presented and the Reverend Coy Iohn Key, guest speaker, gave an inspiring address. Highlights of good times lor the seniors in March were a Sadie Hawkins Party in the new gymnasium and the junior-senior banquet, one of the most enjoyable ever given tor local high school seniors. Three other outstanding events on the l950 seniors' social calendar were the traditional 'Kids' Day, a 'possum hunt, and a scavenger hunt. As the annual went to press, the seniors were looking forward to being guests at a Press Club Iamboree at Stephen F. Austin State College in May and, above all, to the most significant date on their 1950 calendar- May 18-and COMMENCEMENT! 21
