it gzfvf Wife Of all the details of our senior assembly, it was the radiance of our colors, gold and white, which impressed me most. As I walked up the aisle with the other seniors, I was struck by the profusion of gold over the whol ' e room. The entire scene seemed a symbol of our class hope and ambition the fi I h'b' ' , na ex 1 ition of our motto of leadership. The body of white-clad seniors, occupying the first half of the auditorium, seemed a blanket of snow in contrast to a huge bunch of radiant chrysanthemums which held an exalted position at the center of the stage Those seated h . on t e stage wore lovely gold and white corsages, and at one side of the stage was a large harp whose golden frame blended exquisitely with the atmosphere of tranquillity and beauty.

The musical part of the program seemed to me in keeping with the rest of the as- sembly. There were Anna May Hebden's charming solos, Irish Folk Song and The Scare-crow. There was ,41's harpist, Jean Lutz, playing beautifully Fraicheur, Prelude in C Minor, and Ni hc B ' reeze. Then there was Re ina Friese's excellent rendition of g S
