Fond memory brings the hgh Just Remember 0 of other days around me Seventy five years ago when Corrie Junior entered the halls of Corry High School for the first time, she was sure that she had never seen anything so magnificent. The newly built school had only re- cently opened its doors and was awaiting the inflow of students. Corrie herself was a pretty, though a rather shy girl. Her dark blue dress fitted loosely and reached almost to her ankles. fShe was not old enough to have her clothes sweep the floor as did her mother's.J Corrie wore high button shoes that had to be laboriously laced each morning, and her golden hair was combed into neat braids. She pas- sed Carrie Junior, a boy whom she knew, and nodded to him. Corrie had little time for boys, she was far too interested in her studies, and besides, she remembered the days when he had taken delight in dip- ping her braids into his inkwell. A Corrie found her assigned room and slid into a seat with a polite word to the stern, granite-eyed, tight-lipped teacher. Sometimes Corrie wondered if she had sprung right into her present position, with- out ever having attended school herself--she seemed so inhuman. Today Corrie Junior's great-granddaughter is a breezy girl who enters the school jauntly and calls out friendly greetings to her class mates, Corries and Carries alike. Corrie wears her hair in the new short feather cut and her skirt is somewhat long since she is a firm ad- vocate of the New Look . She bounces into the room and greets her teacher who is as much fun as Corrie's classmates and almost as young. Just as Corrie Junior of yesteryear and Corrie Junior of today are different, so has the school changed, also. It is no longer new and proud and elegant. It is somewhat stooped with age, its stairs creak and sag a little. On cold winter mornings its rheumatism is rather disabling, and, if Corrie Junior listens carefully, she can hear the whole building groan with pain until it is warmed by the furnace. Yes, all things change with the passage of time, and the old Corrie Junior seems to have very little in common with the 1949 edition. Clothes, actions, perhaps even manners, are different, but the two Cor- ries do have one thing in common after all-they both loved Corry Senior High.
