SENIORS SENIOR S! Ah, yes, SENIORS! Wheat a magical term, at least to SENIORS. In the next few pages of this SENIOR BOOSTER will he found pictures of SENIORS, names of SENIORS, likes of SENIORS, dislikes of SENIORS, joys of SENIORS, ambitions of SENIORS, deeds of SENIORS. ' friends of SENIORS, hobbies of SENIORS, loves of SENIORS, and what-have-you. To say the least, it is mostly what-have-you. This year ' s grad- uating class is 254 strong, the largest class ever to graduate from Manual. And in it is anything from soup manufacturing aspirants to nuts manufacturing aspirants. Of course, just who these aspirants are won ' t be mentioned here, but it wouldn ' t surprise anyone if it turned out to be true. As Miss Knox says, After years of teaching, nothing would surprise me. So it is with this senior class. Nothing woidd surprise us, either. For this senior class, like other senior classes, has one outstand- ing fault — it is composed of nothing but seniors. Yes, seniors is a magical term, at least to seniors. For have you ever heard Miss Webster or Mr. Green trying to teach a senior how to say Senior with emphasis? No! Our two speech teachers are constantly trying to muffle the braying of seniors when they say SENIOR. But still it does mean something for a senior to say, I ' m a SEN- IOR. For who else can sit semi-recumbently with the girls in the auditorium; who else can sell elevator passes; who else can think up a thousand and one excuses; who else can sprawl so comfortably in his seat; who else can cut as easily; who else can get so many part times; who else can promenade so fashionably through the halls; who else can go to the Ivy Day Dance; who else can be so unconcerned about everything and anything; who else can forge report cards; who else can lunch with the boys in the lunchroom ; who else can drive the ole man ' s car to school; who else can be so cocky; who else can attend the Class Day Dance; who else can get all the gals; who else can swing so arrogantly down the hall; who else can swing that gold- plated shovel; and who else has more brass than our band??? Yes, you guessed it, SENIORS! And so we say to you underclassmen, you too will be seniors someday. And when you reach the age of having twenty-four cred- its to your credit, and it has been an age to some of our seniors, you too can say, as we have said, Now, I am a SENIOR! Oh! We almost forgot the most important thing that makes a senior ' s life just what it is, and that is, Now, I am a SENIOR at EMMERICH MANUAL TRAINING HIGH SCHOOL! —MEREDITH 7!! 98K « 3f
