And, speaking of annuals, here is a scene that has become so familiar, that we cannot let this book go to press without a picture of Wayland taking pictures. You’ve done a good job, Wayland; many thanks to you. Another phase of our school life is physi- cal education. This scene is typical of the last period of our school day. All of us realize that our bodies need to be developed physically a c well as mentally. Here you have a scene which is typical at lunch time. How we all like to gather in groups and just enjoy ourselves in idle talk and gossip. At the end of this period, we can just about tell you what everyone in school did last night and what he is going to do tonight. Pull that rope, boys. There are no chimes which sound sweeter to our ears than the clang of this old bell which marks the end of our school day. Goodbye, everybody, will see you tomorrow.” And so, there’s the end of another school day except for . . . Poor ol’ Willie.” For him, this is a never ending day — at night he even dreams of sweep- ing floors. And on these pages you have it, our school — our work, our play, our troubles, our fun, but most of us will admit, to us there is no dearer place. 4 14 1 -

Little recess has finally come and everyone is in a mad rush to get to the canteen, the one source of food and the meeting place for friends where idle gossip is carried on. Here are a few lucky ones who happened to get there first for those crisp potato chips, milk, peanuts, nabs, and ice cream. Remember the Christmas program just before holidays? Assemblies are part of the life at Franklin High School, and one of the outstanding programs is the Christmas pro- gram pan tom ming the Christmas story — and well do we remember Santa Claus (Jimmy Briggs) and Ma (Anna May Gardner) and Pa (Jean Bunn) in The Night Before Christ mas. Here we see a scene from the Christmas panto- mime. Also at the Christmas program William Rhodes, co-captain of the football team, re- ceives his well-earned letter from Coach Purnell. So this is the source of that incessant drum- ming and banging that issues from the music room. Please, Miss Kate, take pity on those poor students across the hall. We know, though, that music is essential to a fuller, well- rounded life, so we don’t mind. Another phase of our school life is to be found in our publications, and here you see the annual staff busy at work . . and what puzzles we had. What has become of that picture? Why don’t these figures rally? Have you typed that last page I gave you? Have you written the copy for this page? But it’s fun. j i3 y
