Picture oy Following the trend from years past, the Seniors of 1951, decided to have their graduation pictures taken at the Troy-Mack Studios in Eldora. The studio also made arrangements and paid expenses for entertainment throughout the day. On the morning of November 1, we started out in Forbes' station wagon, and Dick Smith's car for the first stop of our picture day trip- Eldora. Mrs. Forbes was our chaperon. Upon arriving we had no trouble locating the studio. The girls gathered first in the studio waiting room to make their orders and then to face th-e camera. Wei also completed plans for the rest of the day. Later the boys appeared' and likewise they had their pictures taken. We spent approximately two hours in the studio and at 11:40 a. m., we located a sandwich shop where we got our lunch. At 12:30 p. ln., we journeyed on to Waterloo. Arriving there at 1:30 we proceeded to take a trip through the Rath Packing Plant. This was very interesting and something quite different for the people who had not gone through the plant before. The clock was approaching three o'cloek when we arrived at the KXEL Radio Station. After visiting the news room, where we read off the teletype of the attempted assassina- tion of President Truman, we visited the music shop. The girls bought sheet music, while some of the boys bought harmonicas and .lohnny bought a ukulele. After shopping for an hour in the various stores, it was time for our evening meal at the Mandarin, an American-Chinese restaurant. Following a delicious meal, we went to a movie called, Mis- ter 8-SO. The time had come to .make our way toward home. As we approached V Eldora, everyone was hungry one-e more, so we stopped there for a little snack, after which we c-ompleted the rest of our journey to our homes. We were tired and worn by a busy day. but everyone enjoyed the trip and we had had a great amount of fun. 21 193' Q

J I CICISS Cornelia Otis Skinner's Family Circle was presented very ably by the senior class on May 2 to a full house in the high school auditorium. The play was an account of the final high school year of Miss Skinner, in which her greatest interest and ambition. was the stage. After many setbacks Miss Skinner's cast finally staged a serious theatrical perform- ance for her father and friends, only to have it end in failure, and farce. Her father, whom she hoped' to impress, walked out on the performance. However, the play ended happily when Cornelia's father obtained a job for her in summer stock after she had promised to attend college in the fall. CAST Cornelia Otis Skinner ........
