We certainly appreciated his efforts in co-operating with us in this respect. We ordered our announcements, name cards, caps and gowns after Christm.as vacation. With the arrival of our name cards, we all suffered from writer ' s cramp. Now, just so we all get our di¬ plomas . GICK YOUNG Band--1, 2, 3, 4 F. P. A. Basketball—3, 4 P. P. A.

To be in the Play is the secret aim of practically every member of the class; and to be the honored guests at the Junior-Senior Banquet is a bid to the biggest social event of the community. And the last two high-lights are Baccalaureate and Commencement cli¬ maxing, ' as they do, our four years of high school live. -11-
