w e ' ve all heard that old saying, Little drops of water, little grains of sand, make a mighty ocean and a pleasant land. During our last year we have recorded lots of little drops and grains of things that make pleasant memories of our alma mater. We shall recall eating at the lunchroom senior row of tables, passing the time of day with the gang before school in 217, breaking a test tube in chemistry, listening to records in music appreciation class or hunting for that book in the card catalog in the library. For the last time as students at Manual we shall have seen the sunshine scattering in geometrical bars on the floor as it gleams through the stair railings, the old clock down by the office, the rifle range, the Picture of the Month display. These high school memories are as jumbled as tho?e meaningless patterns and countless hues on the glass panel bottoms of our juke boxes, but added together, they make the modernistic design of our last year at Manual. We are remembering that in countries like Belgium, Holland, Norway and Poland kids like us don ' t even go to school anymore. Deep in our hearts should be the thought, thanks for America and Manual— Thanks for the Memories. Standing out clearly in our memories are those special occasions which made this last year different. Our first get-acquainted party was held just before first-3emester officer elections. Our senior roll room teachers led the grand march. We had a conga chain, too — a mixture of the old and new in dances! The really special occasion for that semester was Ivy Day, and we seniors contributed toys for the Day Nursery. We ' re old enough to do without our teddy bear and toy automobile anyhow. The big doin ' s this semester were on May 17 — Class Day. But June 12 is the night we ' re all waiting for, the night when we march down the aisle and up on the platform at Cadle Tabernacle to sing Tis June, the month of roses — and to receive our diplomas. Then we ' ll be full-fledged Manual alumni. 24
