CAM YM! We, the class of 1949 being sounder in our mind than could be expected after four strenuous years in high school, do hereby make our last will and testament. We now feel it is our privilege to bequeath our store of treasures with our innumerable duties to those individuals who merit our consideration. First to Mr. Cairns and all members of the faculty, we express our appreciation, and extend our gratitude for the aid they have given in our four years of school. We give them the right to use more strict rules on the Seniors of next year. To the Junior Class, we leave our ability to make good grades by using our common sense. Also all of our conceited ways. To the Sophomore Class, we leave our ability to obey all rules, and hereby will all our best wishes, to be as good as we were. To the Freshman Class, we will the ability to become a 'Sophisticated Senior. In case you need it, we'll also will you our sophistication. To Ernie Knigga, our custodian, we will all our ill manners, our messes, and all our old books. To Marvin Warner, Delmar Stevens wills his ability to stay home on weekends.

Cfariri M0010 ec? qconm Suddenly, clouds of blue smoke drift across the screen. After a few seconds they clear away to reveal Leland Scudder sitting ona rock in South America. Lee is a sur- veyor, working for an American Airline. Apparently he has lost one of his instruments for there are natives searching frantically all around. As the scene fades away, Lee finds the instrument in one of his pockets where it had been all the time. The streets of New York appear on the screen and with them the world's largest pet shop. It is owned by three members ofthe Senior class of '49g Shirley Cash, Leola Housemeyer, and Loretta Cutter. It seems as if all three of these girls were disappointed in love and so they turned the natural love of beautiful things from men to animals. One of the most noticeable things about their Business is the fact that they do not buy or sell male animals. New York City disappears and in its place is a native town on the coast of South Africa. Here, Dale Naegele is outfitting a party of big game hunters for a trip into the interior jungles. After learning the gunsmith trade, he worked for a large concern in New Haven for several years. When he grew tired of his job he came to Africa and started his store. Again the scene shifts, this time to Atlanta, Georgia, where in the.Open Air Taber- nacle, the Great Evangelist, Eleanor Snyder, is preaching the funeral sermon for a friend. Eleanor became an Evangelist soon after she was jilted by her childhood sweet- heart and has traveled all over the world. The funeral director is none other than Nellie Ann Davies, another of our old classmates. Nellie Ann, unable to decide her life occu- pation, finally became an undertaker. At first she thought it was a rather dead job, but she is getting used to it now. Then the screen suddenly became hazy and as a soft, droning sound filledthe room, I once again drifted off to sleep.
