Little did we real- ize then, that those three years would become so quickly but pages in a scrapbook. No doubt that all of you will remember some little event that spiced your stay at Fairfax, but lim sure we will never forget the excitement of our final term in the halls of our alma mater. It was on October 23 that the name of the mighty Olympian class was roared through the auditorium during the Senior Presentation Day skit, ad- mitted by all to be the best ever. In fact the vibrations were so gigantic that it blew out the picture machine that was showing C'Cyrano de Bergerac , our gift to the inhabitants of Colonialville. The next occasion for our class to congregate as a group was at the Senior breakfast, While here, we devoured food and entertainment, both well filled our appetite. The Senior A, Senior B Field Day displayed the real athletic powers of the mighty Olympian class as it smashed the lonely B's, 7 to O before the onlook- ing student body. January 16 marked the day the class stepped from the ordinary into the beautiful Evening in Paris . The Senior Prom, with music by Irv Goodman, proved to be a huge success. The Senior A luncheon was enjoyed by everyone. The highlights of the day were the motion picture of the class, the Will and Testament and the spar- kling entertainment. Then before we could realize it our high school life was over, and we were walking down the aisle headed for a new chapter in our life. I sincerely hope that yours is filled with all the luck, success and happiness the world has to offer. It has been an honor and privilege to serve the Olympian class. Sincerely. jrec! .jslagaerin Prlgf Tit f Hti-mfr

Mimi Winston was President of the Girls' League, Vice President of Girls' League, also Historian, member of Alphas and Tri-S, member of Big Sister, and also was one of the few honored to be chosen for Ephebians. Sheldon Richman was editor of our school newspaper, President of Bee Letterman club, one year varsity letterman, Knight for three semesters, a Prometheans for six semesters. He was also chosen for Ephebians. SHELDON RICHMAN MIMI WINSTON By the above standards you can understand why these two people were chosen for the honor of American Legion Awards. gpkedian Sociefg GOLDIE AJALAT STUART FABER SHELDON RICHMAN MYRNA VICKMAN MIMI WINSTON In ancient Athens, the Ephebians constituted a distinct official order, recognized and honored by the State and regarded by the people as the hope and pride of Athens. This translation of their oath is taken by each member upon initiation into our modern counterpart organization, The Ephebian Society: 4'We will never bring disgrace to this our city by any act of dishonesty or cowardice, nor ever desert our suffering comrades in the ranks, we will iight for the ideals and sacred things of the city here both alone and with many, we will revere and obey the cityas law and do our best to incite a like respect in those above us who are prone to annul or set them at nought, we will strive unceasingly to quicken the public sense of civic duty, thus in all these ways, we will transmit this City not only not less, but far greater and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.
