Remember the many social functions which enlivened our curricular lives . . . the dances, parties, hayrides, and mixers in which every student partici- pated . . . the plays, operettas, concerts, athletic contests, and assemblies presented under the auspices of various special groups, and the professional en- tertainment brought in by the Activity Board? Of course, many things were altered by the chaotic world conditions. With transportation difficult, the increasing scarcity of certain materials, and a gen- eral reduction in the amount spent for selfish amusement, social events became more func- tional and excessive expendi- tures for decorations, tickets, and programs were curtailed. Benefit dances were held for service men and 'Warsages'' were in evidence at many eve- ning gatherings. The social training gained from these experiences, as well as the poise and responsibility they developed, make them a valuable part of education, and serve to supplement the purely academic side of high school life.

THE SERAP DRIVE Remember ... the hectic weeks of rationing when lost citizens strolled through the corridors and teach- ers grappled with complicated rationing problems in their service to the war effort. .(1). .our snappy! flag-swinging majorettes leading the band down the field at the half of a hard-fought football game . .(2). .and how could anyone forget the enormous1 piles of scrap on the front lawn, and the rivalry be- tween teams which resulted in a senior-sophomore victory?.. (3). Remember the Service Flag in the main lobby, which grew by leaps and bounds, here displayed by Marilyn Miller and John Houston. .(4) . .and students' first aid classes which aided na- tional defense by training many for emergency service, under the direction of Mrs. Betty Ives, school nurse. .(5). Events like these made every student realize that he was part of a new era, and stimulated the first serious thoughts concerning the war. 22
