Slraff of The Senior Echoes J anua fy 1941 FOREWORD Once again graduaTion has come: once more Franklin K. Lane has waTched her Seniors pass Through her porTals inTo The world. We, The GraduaTion Class oT January I94I, pass inTo a chaoTic world, a world oT inTernaTional anarchism, virulence. and avaricious ToTaliTarian sTaTes. We pass inTo a world ThaT is endeavoring To eTFace Trom The surface oT The earTh The democraTic way of liTe. We musT bear many responsibiliTies Tor ourselves, our counTry, and The world. We musT TighT our way To success, guide our naTion, and bring peace To The world. The TuTure of The world, noT only oT America, depends on us. Our paThs now will separaTeg some will secure iobs, oThers will go on and enhance Their learning. Regardless of The choice, long hours oT hard work awaiT us. ln any evenT Thrills oT independence and ambiTion surge Through us. We see our paTh obscure and dim before us. We musT make iT clear wiTh The lighT oT knowledge and a spiriT oT confidence and assiduiTy. IT is a prodigious, arduous baTTle ThaT awaiTs us. We are inspired by The challenge, and wiTh The ideals OT Tolerance and democracy ever before us, may we aTTack This Task wiTh The TaiTh, courage, and zeal ThaT Lane has insTilled wiThin us. These will be our weapons wiTh which we shall Torge ahead and desTroy our barriers. Lane has exerTed a Tremendous inTluence on our lives. She has moulded our characTers and given us a mode of ThoughT. She shall always be parT of us, and we shall remember her. We shall always remember The dances, clubs, our close Triend- ships, and The encouragemenT and inspiraTion gained Trom our TavoriTe Teachers. When you reminisce wiTh proud swelling hearTs oT The Tun you had in Lane, open This book. IT is The enTrance To The dreams oT your Alma MaTer days. And if iT helps regain many oT The ioyous ThoughTs of The Time you spenT in Lane, we shall Teel well repaid Tor our eTforTs. SalvaTore Ambrosino 7 4, JUST AWAY I cannoT say, And I will noT say ThaT she is dead. She's iusT away! WiTh a cheery smile And a wave oT The hand She has wandered inTo an unknown land And IeTT us dreaming how very Tair IT needs musT be, since she lingers There, And you-oh you, who The wiIdes+ yearn For The old-Time sTep and The glad reTurn, Think of her Taring on, as dear In The love of There, as The love of Here. Think oT her s+iIl The same, I say: She is noT dead-She is iusT away. James WhiTcomb Riley A A A MEMORIAM IT can'T be True! Yes, someone has died buT ThaT can'T be Jo. Jo is Too Tull of life, she's Too lovely To die. No-see-There she is-in The oTHce, siTTing aT The Type- wriTer. She's doing copy Tor The nexT issue. See how she looks up and smiles as you enTer The room. And now she's on The Train, siTTing opposiTe The door as I come in. We're riding home TogeTher. I-Iere's our sTaTion,-and when we reached The corner sTiII Talking, I say-so long Jo and she says--good-bye Claire .... ThaT happened only a Tew weeks ago. IT wasn'T good-bye, Torever, I shall never see you again- iusT good-bye .... Remember how she looked ThaT day. She was sTanding on The porch ready To go down and she looked as if she had iusT sTepped ouT of a book. Her lovely black hair bordered her perTecTIy TeaTured Tace and The whole picTure was Tramed in a big yellow haT To maTch The yellow gown. She was laughing when I passed-she waved To me-and she looked so happy one would have ThoughT she was The bride .... l'Iow can iT be possible ThaT on This happy occasion she should conTracT This horrible Thing ThaT Took her beauTy, Took her ioy,-Took her life .... No-Jo isn'T dead. There is someone lying There in The long whiTe gown and veil, buf iT's someone else,-someone I don'T know. No-The picTure in my mind will always be of The dark, beauTiTuIly formed girl in yellow-ThaT is-and always will be-Jo.

Marilyn Feldman A A A Tl-IE Pl-IILOSOPI-IIC SENIOR To mosf of us, doors are merely fhe means by which we enfer and leave a building or room: buf fhe Seniors, so close fo closing one door and opening anofher fhemselves, look af doors in a differenf and novel lighf. OPEN DOORS OF YOUTH ln fhis modern day and age many doors are consfanfly being opened fo youfh. Young men and women nowadays have an advanfage over fhe people of olden days. Formerly if was considered a greaf honor fo affend high school, buf foday if is faken for granfed. The older people of foday affended only grammar school, buf fhe fufure generafions will 'rake even college for granfed. Nof only is fhe field of educafion being opened and widened for youfh, buf fhe fields of science and indusfry are also expanding. IO Jobs in facfories wifh long hours and low wages have been replaced by beffer working condifions, higher wages, shorfer hours, and an increase in employmenf caused by mass producfion. Doors of opporfunify are sfeadily and rapidly being opened fo youfh. Our faflrrers and grandfafhers considered a few dollars a week high wages, while our children and grandchildren will nof even fhink of working for less 'rhan fiffeen dollars a week. Bigger and beffer indusfries are being infroduced fo us. For example, many of us have heard adverfisemenfs abouf air-condifioning, fhe new and growing indusfry, and felevision, an almosf complefed developmenf of fhe radio. Speaking of fhe radio, fhis invenfion alorig wifh fhe porfable radio, elecfric vicfrola, moving picfures, and ofhers, has broadened fhe field of enferfainmenf for +he youfh of our counfry. Doors of hope and beginning may sfill be opened fo arf, music, and liferafure, as fhey never die. Youfh foday has many roads fo furn on, and fhe fufure may perhaps hold beffer fhings in sfore. The doors of social life seem fo be open more fo youfh 'roday fhan in yesferyear. Nof only socially, buf polifically, youfh seems fo be inferesfed in governmenf affairs. Doors are everywhere! Alfhough fhey may vary and be difficulf fo find, 'rhe doors when opened begin a new life of happiness, hope, and mysfery. Youfh can find doors fo science, educafion, indusfry, enferfainmenf, arf, liferafure, music, and social and polifical affairs if fhey only will furn fhe door-knob and go in. Evelyn Wemssen A CN REVOLVING DOORS l guess we have all heard fhe sfory of fhe man who came fo New York Cify from a very small fown, and wenf fo see all fhe large deparfmenf sfores. Do you remember whaf happened fo him? No. Well, fhen l shall fell you. He came 'lo fhe firsf large sfore and commenced fo walk in, buf he mef wifh difficulfy. Here was a new kind of door. Whaf did you do fo if in order fo enfer fhe sfore? He walked over fo if, and wenf info one of fhe liffle spaces. Then 'l'he frouble sfarfed. He began fo go 'round and 'round and 'round, He didn'f know how fo sfop if. Finally affer he had gone around for abouf fwenfy-five minufes, a sfranger who saw his frouble helped him ouf. This wasn'+ humorous fo our small fown dweller af all: he fhoughf fhaf revolving doors were ferrible and resolved never fo lef anybody have fhem insfalled in his fown. Now fhaf we have heard abouf revolving doors on fhe humorous side, sfop and fhink abouf fhe serious side. l fhink fhey somewhaf resemble a person's life. The doors go 'round and 'round only sfopping when fhe sfore closes. Well a person's life goes 'round and 'round, only if doesn'f ever sfop, nof even when one is sleeping. Life goes 'round in fhe respecf fhaf you are wealfhy: fhen poor, sick: fhen healfhy, and so on. Life never sfands sfill. lf is always doing somefhing new. Of course fhis is nof fhe case of every single individual, buf for fhe maiorify l fhink if is. Revolving doors differ from a person's life in only one ofher respecf, and fhaf is fhe following. Mosf doors of fhis kind are made ouf of glass so fhaf you can see info whaf or where you are going, buf nof so wifh life. No one has fhe charm fo fell herself or anofher whaf is going fo happen. Life is a mysfery. Life is like a closed door fhaf hides everyfhing. My goodness, when you come fo fhink of if, life resembles lofs of fhings, doesn'f if? Now fhaf we have discussed revolving doors on fhe humorous and serious side, l fhink if is fime enough fo cafch hold of our doors, fhaf are never sfill buf always in acfion, and fell you fhaf you have reached fhe end. Our doors are af lasf quief. Lucille Gusfow I A NEW DOOR OPENING One nighf in January a new door will open for mosf of fhe presenf eighfh fermers. Affer graduafion fhis door will lead some fo college, ofhers fo iobs. For, some if will bring happiness and success, fo ofhers grief and failure. , While fhis new door opens fo fhe fufure and brings fhe responsibilifies of man and womanhood, fhere is also one closing. The door fhaf closes will mean fhe end of our high school career. Never again will we sif in fhe classrooms, fool in fhe halls, and cheer af fhe baskefball games as sfudenfs of Lane. We will probably remember fhese four years as long as we live, and now fhey are finished. For a few fhey were easy, enioyable years, while ofhers found fhem difficulf and filled wifh hard work. Buf, now we are receiving our diplomas, we have succeeded fhis far, and fhaf door fo fhe fufure is opening. This opening and closing of doors will remain wifh us unfil deafh closes fhe final one. Each new job or advancemenf, fo some each new degree, will be fhe key opening fhe nexf door fo somefhing higher and beffer, Affer each misfake, we can close fhe door fo fhaf episode and sfarf over. ' l-lerberf Brusf A DOORS OPEN TO YOUTH To fhe average high school Senior doors have a parficular meaning. The problem confronfing us is which door leads by fhe shorfesf roufe fo fhe greaf door of success. However, if isn'f all as simple as if may sound, for fhere are so very many doors fo choose from. Nafurally many of us reach our desfinafions, and yef many more are leff frapped in fhe anferoom. The word frapped is perhaps a liffle foo sfrong for fhere is a mysfery involved which musf be solved. Nof whaf lies on fhe ofher side of fhis porfal, buf rafher how fo open fhis door is our problem. As we leave high school on fhe nighf of Commencemenf, liffle do we realize fhaf never again are we fo pass fhrough fhese doors which we have been enfering and leaving fhe pasf four years. There is no key on earfh fhaf can open fhese doors for us again. Whaf lies inside is fo us a parf of The pasf, and as we leave fhe building, we feel fhaf we are sfepping info a new world. Perhaps we may refurn and wish fhaf I2 we could be The happy-go-lucky sTudenTs we once were, buT we soon Tind ouT ThaT These doors are Tirmly shuT To us. H There are many doors Tor us To enTer now. The doors oT The colleges and uni- versiTies. The doors oT business, The doors oT indusTry are buT a Tew oT Those which hold a TuTure Tor us. Which door To choose? Which has The leasT hard knocks? These quesTions keep Tlashing across our brains and yeT The only way To Tind ouT is by Trying Them. We all have a key, our abiliTy, and The iolo is To Tind ouT which door The key TiTs. Once we have Tound The door of our dreams we musT lock iT To prevenT ourselves Trom Turning back. We musT go Torward unTil we reach our goal-The door oT success. ' . Irene Galowin L L A A PRAYER Oh my God, Make us brave, LeT us hear wiTh a smile All ThaT comes. Make us sTrong For The Time may be long, Oh my God. LeT us be Like nymph oT delighT, BliThe and Tree. LeT us be Like spriTes seeking Tun and Like a deer Tleeing horrors To escape Trom our sorrows. Oh my God, LeT The sun be shining Like a vasT yellow ball, And leT The cloud's silver lining Turn To us all. LeT iT noT be in vain ThaT I pray Oh my God. Bebe Ginness L L A I3 .LH The Prom WhaT one Thing occupies The mind oT The Senior more Than any oTher, wiTh The pos- sible excepTion oT holidays? ls iT RegenTs, The Tinal sTruggle To graduaTe, or whaT he will do upon leaving high school? No, iT is noT any oT These, buT a much more im- porTanT problem ThaT holds him. Upon enTering The eighTh Term, The sTudenT is obsessed by The idea of The Prom . Now some oT you may ask, WhaT is The Prom? , buT To mosT, There is no need oT explanaTion Tor They know ThaT iT is The social highlighT oT graduaTion, The Senior Dance. From The momenT The Prom is menTioned, The normal sTudenT becomes pensive and develops a scruTinizing naTure. Perhaps The mosT suiTable way in which To il- lusTraTe This reacTion is To convey The idea by means oT a play lalThough a play in diTTerenT Torm, in which no characTer speaksl. The scene opens wiTh Bill, our hero, planning The Type oT girl he would be proud To Take To The Prom, making sure oT all qualiTies she musT possess To measure up To his expecTaTions. The Prom is The iniTial incidenT in our play: The anTecedenT acTion is in The dim, dark pasT beTore BiII's enlighTenmenT. ATTer his model is compleTed, a Trial period OT abouT six monThs musT be lived Through, during which Bill is searching, waTching, waiTing, ever TesTing The gualiTies oT This or ThaT girl To Tind The acme oT perTecTion. All This is The rising acTion or involuTion in our play. The Torces ThaT are pulling againsT one anoTher are The Torces oT naTure, which declare Bill will eiTher go To The Prom wiTh The model girl , or sTay aT home. Time passes, disappoinTmenTs come and go, and Tinally The seemingly righT girl appears on The scene, in The person oT Mary. BuT alack and alas, she isn'T perTecT aTTer all, Tor iT doesn'T Take Bill long To discover ThaT she cannoT Lindy . This a hearTbreaking discovery, and liTe is cerTainly noT whaT iT should be, nor is anyone perTecT . The nexT Thoughr oT sagacious Bill is ThaT he should be a liTTle less par- Ticular and Try To Teach Mary To Lindy in Time Tor The big evenT. So back he goes, buT all Too laTe, Tor Mary has promised To aTTend The big evenT wiTh some oTher boyf, and Bill is The unTorTunaTe one. This brings us To The climax OT our play, and we Tincl Bill very, very downhearTed and discouraged. BuT suddenly, he remembers The girl who siTs nexT To him in hisTory class: she was raTher nice, come To Think oT iT. He had never parTicularly noTiced her beToreq buT since he has been so busy, how could he? Now, abouT The girl: She mighT be classiTied as The esTheTic Type, and while noT beauTiTul, cerTainly, very charm- ing. She is noT exacTly Bill's ideal girl : buT well, The Prom is drawing near, and one cannoT conTinue The search Tor The perTecT liT There is The perTecT T. Bill goes home exciTedp prepares TirsT This speech and Then ThaT, Trying all The Time noT To be or seem presumpTuous. The wrong speech mighT be TaTal To The desired resulTs, and ThaT would be Terrible. Finally his speech being leTTer 'perTecT, he approaches The girl aT The proper momenT, only To Tind he has TorgoTTen all The planned phrases and is speaking exTemporaneouslyl IT is here ThaT we have our Talling acTion or evoluTion, Tor The girl is very sweeT and gracious, making cerTain ThaT she is sympaTheTic, buT neverTheless, iT is a reTusal. Our hero, compleTely deiecTed, decides ThaT he doesn'T wanT To go aTTer all: ThaT he will sTay aT home and read a good book The nighT oT The Prom . This is our de- nouemenT or end. Bill resembles a greaT many sTudenTs, perhaps even ourselves, and so l mighT appropriaTely end wiTh The saying WhaT Price Prom? . Frances Georgens , A .A A I4 . Y R of . mf MONTHLY DIARY OE MY SENIOR TERM IEV5 -s .IU F' SEPTEMBER:- AII summer long I've looked Torward To being a Senior, and now I'm iT , OuT- wardly noThing has happened buT inside I Teel like shouTing, I'm a Senior , all oT The Time. The Senior buTTons, on whose size we voTed, are The larger oT The Two sizes we had To choose Trom and are very ouTsTanding. We had our picTures Taken, and are now waiTing Tor The prooTs To know The worsT. AT our Senior meeTing, we eIecTed class oTTicers, and voTed on measures such as The wearing oT gowns Tor graduaTion and The amounT oT dues we were To pay. VoIunTeers Tor The Dues, Class NighT, and Prom CommiTTees were called Tor and This broughT home To me The TacT ThaT I've no one in mind To Take To The Prom. SomeThing had beTTer happen in connecTion wiTh This problem soon. OCTOBER:- The prooTs came back and mine are aTrocious. I iusT won'T believe ThaT I look ThaT way. Everyone eIse's looks decenT excepT mine. MoTher says ThaT I have To order some. Oh well! I've sTarTed To pay Tor my iewelry. We've had some com- miTTee and sTaTT meeTings and everyThing seems To be running smooThIy. We received our reporT cards and Trom all indicaTions I'II graduaTe. IAS Though I didn'T know ThaT.l Diary, I sTiII haven'T decided which man To Take To The Prom. I don'T know whaT To do. I iusT can'T decide, and don'T really wanT To Take any one whom I know righT now. I wish I could meeT someone new To ask. Well, some people say ThaT wishTul Thinking someTimes brings resulTs, and I sure am Thinking. NOVEMBER:- Our picTures came back, and They're worse Than The prooTs. Oh why, oh why, did I Ie+ moTher persuade me To geT Them? Class Day has come and gone. IT was all righT, buT noT as much Tun as iT used To be, Tor we couIdn'T wear cosTumes and suck Iollipops, buT had To behave. Class NighT is nexT monTh and I Think ThaT I've Tound someone To Take To Class NighT and To The Prom. His name is Ted. l Ie's Tall lsix TeeTl, dark and nice looking, noT handsome buT nice looking. I'Ie's a Junior aT ST. John's UniversiTy, and I'm going To ask him The nighT he comes To Lane To see Three Cornered Moon. DECEMBER:- Class NighT was swell, and Ted liked iT an awTuI IoT. I was glad ThaT I had asked him. He looked so nice, and I was so proud of him. We didn'T go ouT very oTTen during ChrisTmas vacaTion as Ted's saving Tor The Prom. MoTher has boughT me a cloudlike blue neT dress. IT's lovely. Ted's going To wear a Tux, and his TaTher is IeTTing him have The car Tor ThaT nighT. The way we're planning iT, we should have a perTecTIy marvelous Time. The Prom is aImosT here, and aTTer ThaT comes RegenTs week, and Then, why Then, There's GraduaTion, and I won'T be going To Lane anymore. Gee, I'II miss iT, and everyThing ThaT goes wiTh iT. JANUARY:- The Prom was marvelous. My gown TiTTed beauTiTuIIy, and AunT Fran lenT me her new Tur iackeT. Ted looked posiTiveIy like a Greek God, and MoTher said ThaT we looked simply eleganT TogeTher. When we sTepped inTo The gym, I couIdn'T quiTe recognize iT as The place where we so duTiTuIIy and uninspiringly had done our seTTing I6 up exercises each day Tor Tour whole years. There were muTed muITi-colored lighTs, and The band sounded swell. We didn'T sTay aT The school long, buT wenT To Green- wich Village. IT was wonderful. The minuTe Prom exciTemenT died down, we all sTarTed To sTudy diIigenTly Tor The RegenTs. Those oT us who passed had a solemnly impressive and slighTIy pompous GraduaTion. As my diploma was handed To-me, I realized ThaT wiTh This cerTiTicaTe my lasT oTTiciaI Ties wiTh Lane were cuT oTT. So help me, There was a lump in my ThroaT as I vowed To come back To see Lane as oTTen as possible. Miriam Gordon A A A Are you ready yeT, Joan? Sure I am, lv1oTher. I'II be ouT in a couple oT minuTes. AbouT halT an hour IaTer, a young girl in an evening gown walked inTo The room. She was a cuTe Thing, wiTh her hair plied high on her head. She had a beauTiTul com- plexion and wore a very ioyTul air oT expecTancy. Her moTher gazed aT her wiTh approval. ThaT dress TiTs you like a glove, ancl she wenT on wiTh her kniTTing. ATTer a considerable pause Joan asked, WhaT Time is iT, Mom? No,- noT so IaTe already! Why I'll never geT To The dance. She 'began pacing The Tloor. The door creaked--she paused- Oh, iT's only you, Dad. I ThoughT ThaT maybe- Jack noT here yeT? asked her TaTher in a surprised Tone oT voice. Joan Turned To look aT him. I-le was a man in his early TorTies, s+iII as handsome as ever. Gosh, he was good To her. Always did whaT she wanTed him To do. BuT she couldn'T Think abouT ThaT now. She was becoming worried, Tor iT was growing IaTe. Dear, please siT down. You'lI be Tired beTore you geT There. Joan conTinued To pace The Tloor nervously. lk :Il if fi' il! Time crepT slowly on. Carelessly, she ran her Tingers Through her hair in ThaT old nervous gesTure which was so habiTual. The new hair-do became messy, buT Joan didn'T care. NoThing maTTered any more. I-Ier TeeT began To hurT. Peevishly she kicked oTT her new shoes and sank inTo The reading chair. Why, oh why doesn'T he come? she repeaTed again and again. For Three weeks she'd been eagerly anTici- paTing This momenT, buT now . . . She'd been so happy, so carefree-everyone won- dered whaT had happened-why she so oTTen smiled when There was really no reason To do so-why she answered each quesTion wiTh a blank look-why she shopped al- mosT every weekend. They didn'T know ThaT Jack had asked her To his Prom. They didn'T know she had goTTen a gown especially Tor The occasion. They didn'T know The happy buT anxious ThoughTs ThaT kepT running Through her mind. Now SaTurday nighT had come, and she was all dressed and waiTing-waiTing To be Taken To The big aTFair. BuT where was Jack? lk ik ik FF lk IT was Two o'clock. Joan lay on her bed. her eyes red and swollen Trom crying. The new evening gown was crumpled in a heap on The chair. I-ler hair was all mussed up. I-ler high heeled shoes had been Thrown on The Tloor. And Joan was sTiII crying. In her imaginaTion, she heard The happy voices oT couples coming home Trom The dance. She would have been among Them, buT-Jack had noT comel Joan conTinued crying. RuTh Lucille Lebowsky A A L I7 ANXIETY .'

Lucille Berman A A A MY CONOUEROR A y'3H 'WFx f TI-IE ROMANTIC SENIOR As The Time for The Senior Prom approached, The Seniors ran Through Their daTe books wiTh an eye To romance, To memories of gay parfies, To find The perfecf escorT or escorfed for The Prom, or iusf To find an escorf or escorfed. Here are some of The resuITs of Their romanfic musings. Edifor ' MY FIRST ROMANCE 'Twas Spring again and There I was, siTTing on The grass, carefully opening up polly noses To clip on my nose. In my lap and all around me There were plenfy of Them. Somehow They wouldn'T sfay dn my nose. They lcepT slipping off. I didn'T parficularly care because I had iusf Turned Twelve, and noT a cloud could dim The rosy haze ThaT had been creafed from This occasion. I iusf saT and pulled polly noses. My eyes wandered To a group of boys abouT Twelve or Thirfeen years of age and Then Turned away haughfily. I was Twelve, and hadn'T my sisTer said ThaT a' girl is always older Than a boy even Though They are The same age? I Iiffed a hand To adiusf The ribbon in my hair and made a menfal noTe To Talk To mofher abouf ribbons. In doing so, my IifTed eyes meT Those of one of The boys, The red-headed one. As- suming indifference, I looked away. He sTrolled over. WhaTcha doing? I didn'T answer: iusT looked up aT him and I was sfarfled because his hair had suddenly been caughT in a gleam of sunshine, and his eyes were The bluesf blue. and his TeeTh, as he smiled, looked ever so whife. I wondered whaT kind of TooTh powder he used. He saT down beside me and sTarTed To peel some of my polly noses. As children are apT To do, we driffed inTo seemingly grown-up conversafion abouf This and ThaT. Suddenly, he puT Two dirTy fingers in his mouTh and emiTTed The mosf beaufiful, shrilIesT whisTIe I had ever heard. The resT of The boys from The bench joined us, and while I looked on, were soon engaged in The rough and Tumble acT. I 2I f decided iT was Time Tor me To go home. As I sTarTed up The pollies Tell, buT MaTTy lThaT was his namel scooped up a handTul and gave Them To me. I TelT proud. He walked wiTh and sIighTly behind me, and To This day I regreT living so near, iusT across The way. We saT on my doorsTep unTiI moTher's Tamiliar Tone TIoaTed down To me. MaTTy held on To my arm Tor a minuTe, reached inTo his pockeT, and opened up a polly. Very careTully he weT iT wiTh The Tip oT his Tongue, and Then ever so Iigh+ly placed iT on my nose. My head! IT sTayed on. An ne BiTTenson A MY FIRST DATE EighT o'clock, and sTill no daTe! Gee, my TirsT daTe and he was IaTe! I had been ready since seven o'cIock. Who said ThaT a woman is never ready on Time? Probably some moron. ATTer waiTing Tor whaT seemed an eTerniTy, iT arrived. I call him iT because iT was hard To Tell whaT had arrived, a male specimen or a rainbow. I had heard oT sharpies, buT aTTer all There was a limiT. He was a perTecT example oT whaT The well dressed man shouldn'T wear. IT Took me quiTe a while To geT over my TirsT disillusion, buT To Top iT all, we saT and Talked all nighT. By The Time The nighT was over, I was ready To chew nails. I vowed myself oTT man Tor life. Everyone knows ThaT iT's a woman's privilege To change her mind. Eileen Engel A FIRST DATE MoTher! MoTher!!' I screamed aT The Top oT my lungs when The TirsT call loroughT no answer. MoTher came running up The sTairs, wondering whaT had hap- pened To her darling. Oh, moTher, I cried, Look aT The Time. IT's Tive minuTes To eighT, and Tommy will be here aT eighT. Why ThaT's all righT darling: you're pracTically all dressed. BuT moTher, I can'T Tind my shoes. They're righT downsTairs where you leTT Them. Oh whaT a relief ThaT was. For Tive weeks I had been hoping +ha+ Tom would Take me ouT. He was a new boy in Town, and all The girls had a crush on him. NoThing could go wrong TonighT and ruin This TirsT daTe . He came aT eighT, and we drove To The neighborhood TheaTer. Gosh, buT he was grand. SorT-of The sTrong-silenT Type! He was very poIiTe. I guess he knew every rule in The book. We meT Mabel. She cerTainly looked envious. We saT in our seaTs and began To enioy The picTure. ThaT is, I enioyed iT Tor awhile. BuT Then my TeeT began To hurT. I shouldn'T have worn Those new shoes. Well, I ThoughT, I'II iusT slip Them oTT awhile. No one will see Them in The dark.'f The picTure was a very exciTing one and I TorgoT my shoes. Several people passed in and ouT. Suddenly someone began To laugh aT The end oT The isle. People Turned around. A woman held up a shoe. My shoe! Tom said in a low voice, Can you imagine anyone being so sTupid? Losing ,her 22 shoes in The movies! I nearly fainTed Then and There. NoT even glancing aT Tom, I slid ouT To The aisle, grabbed my shoes from The lady amid The laughTer of Those around her, and ran from The movie-house. I never wanfed To see Tom again, buT The nexT nighT he came over. I ThoughT sure he would menTion iT, buT he didn'T. He sfill comes To see me, buT he never Takes me To The movies. I Jean EngsTrom A MY FIRST DATE LeT me see-when was my firsT dafe? IT was a long Time ago. Oh yesl I remember now. I had gone To a dance and had meT a very preTTy girl. Her name was Gloria. I had walked home wiTh her. I was in a daze all The while I was walking wiTh her. This was The firsT Time I had ever walked a girl home alone. I shook hands wiTh her ll didn'T know any beTTerl and said goodnighT. I cheerfully sTarTed To walk home. All oT sudden I sfopped dead in my Tracks. I suddenly realized someThing. Somehow, I had asked Gloria for a dafe and she had accepTed. WhaT was I To do? I had never Taken a girl ouT before. WhaT should I say? How should I acT? I was as frighfened Then, as I would ever be. As I walked home, my feelings were undescribable. Sleep was impossible ThaT nighT. In The morning, I had definiTeIy decided ThaT wild horses could noT Take me To The daTe. However, Fafe Took a hand. My friends learned of The daTe and fixed iT so ThaT I had To go. My honor was aT sTake. During The resT-of The week, I wenT around asking how To acT wiTh a girl. On The appoinTed nighT, I called for Gloria. As I knocked aT her door, I had a desire To run away. However, iT was Too laTe. I had already knocked. Gloria came To The door and IeT me in. She infroduced me To her moTher, fafher, and sisfers. ATTer They had looked me over, we lefT The house. I Took her To a movie. This was The place where you do The IeasT Talking. Gloria and I held hands. I was so Thrilled. AfTer The movie, I Took her for a walk in The park. We saT down on a bench and Talked and Talked... Gloria seemed To know how To carry on a conversaTion. Before I knew iT, I had Told her everyThing I knew abouT myself. We Tinally goT up and wenT To a drug sTore. We had ice cream sodas. I looked aT The Time and found iT was IaTe. Therefore, I Took her home. I summoned up enough nerve To ask her for a good nighT kiss. Nobody can say I wasn'T learning. I had spenT Two weeks' allowance ThaT nighT. However, I feIT iT was well spenT. ThaT was The nighT I TirsT considered myself a man. Philip Goz A MY FIRST ROMANCE I don'T know how many crushes I had in eIemenTary school, buT I do remember my TirsT one. I had plenTy of compeTiTion. He was six and a half monThs older Than I was. He had blond hair ThaT never sTayed in place, and innocenf-looking blue eyes. Those eyes goT mel I'I,I never forgeT The panTs he wore five days a week. They were shorT. The facT is They were so shorT ThaT someTimes his underwear would sTick ouT. They were supposed To be navy-blue, buT To Top iT all, he had a paTch in The back, which he goT because he slid To Home on The wrong end. One morning, our Teacher asked us whaT our fuTure ambiTion was. She called on him before me. He said he was going To be an aviafor. Before he had said This, I was going To be a newspaper correspondenf, buT I guess a woman has a righT 23 Q-'I MIL- . ,ffs 41 f A To change her mind. I was going To be a nurse! Why! Suppose he goT hurT. WhaT would he do wiThouT me. WaiT! Perhaps an air hosTess would be beTTer. AT IeasT I'd see him every day. I can'T sTand The sighf oT blood, anyway. ATTer This Tinal decision, my Teacher asked me abouT my ambiTion. I Told her I wanTed To be an air hosTess. She asked me why. BeTore I could answer, one oT my rivals said ThaT I wanTed To be an air hosTess, because he was going To be a piIoT. OT course, The Teacher laughed. and so did The whole class, including him , buT my Tace was so red wiTh embarrassmenT ThaT I kepT my mouTh shuT unTiI noon ThaT day. When I goT back before one o'cIock, I had TorgoTTen The whole incidenT, and was all smiles Tor him . I had a jelly bar, and gave haIT To him , when The Teacher wasn'T looking. WhaT a specimen he remained in my mind, unTiI I saw him Three weeks ago. He is now sevenTeen, buT looks TiTTeen. Could ThaT be The boy I liked so much in elemen- Tary school? I'-Ie is so shorT, and he has a German haircuT. His eyes are no longer innocenT-looking. They give all The girls The eye , OT course, I didn'T gxpecT To see him again. Now, I'm sorry I did, because I haven'T one, single, IiTTIe memory oT The Ii++Ie boy I liked so much in elemenTary school. Norma Berman A MY FIRST DATE I was TourTeen aT The Time and he was a lad oT sixTeen. Oh iT was so exciTingI How- ever, I've never TorgoTTen one deTail. Guess I'lI always remember my TirsT daTe. We were boTh in The same English class. I musT admiT ThaT The major parT oT my lessons was spenT in admiring his beauTiTuI blond hair. I-Ie seemed so unconcerned and always so engrossed in his English. No maTTer how hard I Tried To gain his aTTen- Tion, I always Tailed. Why I remember The Time ThaT I accidenTalIy dropped my books near his desk. BuT iT wasn'T he who helped me pick Them up. Oh, no, iT had To be The girl who saT behind him! Because he was so aloof and indiTTerenT I never expecTed him so much as To speak To me: much less ask me ouT. BuT iT happened. I Ie came over To me and blushing shyly, sTuTTered ouT his inviTaTion. Well, I was so dumbfounded ThaT The besT I could do was sTuTTer back my reply-yes. And Then The big day came. OT course The occasion was imporTanT enough To warranT a new dress and so I had a new dress. IT was green and The salesgirl said iT did show up The green oT my eyes. I was so nervous and iiTTery ThaT my moTher had To assisT me in my dressing. ATTer Tussing wiTh my hair, combing iT TirsT This way and Then ThaT way, I Tinally was saTisTied. IT was a quarTer To eighT, and he had said he would come aT eighT, Those TiTTeen minuTes were The worsT I have ever lived Through. ThoughTs kepT racing Through my mind. WhaT if he geTs IosT: or worse sTill whaT iT he gives me a sTandup ! Oh, how awful iT would be, a sTandup on my TirsT daTe! Why he couIdn'T: no, he couIdn'+ do a Thing like ThaT To me. BuT he could and maybe he would. Oh, if he dared, why, why I'd never speak To him again. And Tear kepT raising sTeadiIy in my hearT. BuT Then The bell rang, and all The Tear vanished. IT was he aT IasT. Oh, he looked so nice. A new blue suiT replaced The dirTy sweaTer and slacks I was so used To seeing him in. And Then he said, Shall we be going? And my hearT beaT ouT loudly, my TirsT daTe, my TirsT daTe. JeaneTTe Leshinsky L A L 24 M, F 5 4' , , ,L Q. f-4 1 5 ,, . .x I gy 'K 1 L bv. 1 ,R r Y.

'!'lu2 MR BATT'S TRIP TO Tl-IE MOVIES Mr. BaTT is sTilI complaining abouT The number oT sTudenTs who play hookey To go To The ParamounT and ThereTore decides To invesTigaTe. As he rounds The corner, he discovers a crowd around The sTage door. Among Them are William and Harold Guyon Trying To geT picTures of Bob BarneTT's orchesTra, which includes Bob SbrigaTa, Tamous Tor his arrangemenT of Two TurTledoves on The TrumpeT , and MilTon Shapiro wiTh his Swing on The Sax . When Mr. BaTT sees ThaT The TeaTure picTure, The Cannibals , was wriTTen by ThaT mosT unique oT auThors, James Sullivan, he decides To sTay. Jeanne Kofier, acTing as cashier, Takes Mr. BaTT's money Tor Two seaTs, and Then he is shown To his seaTs by The ever courTeous usher, AnThony Venezia. Looking over The crowd, waiTing Tor The enTerTainmenT To begin, he discovers such celebriTies as Lorraine RichTer and RuTh Bolbach, escorTed by l-lerberT BrusT and MaTThew Anderson. Mr. BaTT seTTles comTorTably back in his seaT and Turns his aTTenTion To The screen, buT his view is obsTrucTed by The couple in TronT. Upon TurTher invesTigaTion, he Tinds They are Elsie Lashow and MarTin Cohen. The Tormer's hair seems To be sTanding on end, buT aTTer careTul observaTion one sees ThaT iT is merely her haT, which resembles a porcupine, ThaT gives This impression. Loud applause Tells Mr. BaTT ThaT he has missed parT oT The newsreel, and when he can see once more, alThough he never did find ouT who The winner was, he gaThered ThaT Elaine PeTers was compeTing againsT Claire Gropper in The Cross CounTry Race Tor AmaTeurs-Women Only . The winner received a craTe oT Burns' TooT soap. He dozes oTl7 only To be awakened when The newsreel porTrays Lucille Berman being presenTed wiTh The Nobel Prize Tor her play, Animal Crackers and Why? . She is given The prize by our Tamous poliTical Tigure, Shirley Cohen. The TeaTure picTure opens in The African jungle where Peggy Jaquiss is aTTempT- ing To converT The cannibals, Beansy Campbell and Bill Meyer, or vice versa. Peggy is on The poinT of being boiled in an immense poT oT bubbling waTer To The accompanimenT of a furious TaTToo being beaTen on a peculiar, sTringed insTru- menT by no less Than MilTon Fink. The cannibals are dancing wildly around The Tire led by The Tamous cannibalisTic iiTTerbug, DoTTy l-lyams. Peggy is led To The Tire, buT aT This crucial momenT, a whiTe cloud envelopes her and she is whisked away by an unseen Torce which proves To be noT Superman buT Sal Ambrosino. Sal has been experimenTing again wiTh a sTrange iungle disease and using as his vicTim Claire Gallin whom he hopes evenTually To cure. However, Peggy is rescued, leaves Tor her home on The TirsT boaT, marries The college aThleTe, John Sandman, and lives happily ever aTTer. Mr. BaTT leaves The ParamounT, eaTs a hearTy meal, and goes home. Now he knows why LaneiTes of I95I play hookey. Doris Marcellus BeTTy Jean PoTTs A A A 26 TI-IE JOLLY LETTERS I INTEND TO WRITE During The pasT few years in English classes, I have wriTTen various Types of IeTTers. AIThough To friends and reIaTives I wroTe deIighTfuI and amusing IeTTers, in business IeTTers I used The required formal sTyIe. In The fuTure, I hope To change my sTyIe of wriTing, and I am going To wriTe To new and differenf people. NOT only will I wriTe To Tell The Mayor of my criTicism and saTisfacTion as To ciTy affairs, buf I will wriTe To Tell The Governor of sTaTe affairs and The PresidenT of naTionaI maTTers. AfTer I have wriTTen To Tyrone Power, The young, dark, handsome acTor, To inform him of my admiraTion for him, I shall Then com- municaTe wiTh Errol Flynn To Tell him how very much impressed I am wiTh his good looks and charming manner. When Those IeTTers are signed, sealed and delivered, I shall be conTenTed and will anTicipaTe answers To Them. Unquesfionably, I shall wriTe To ask Eleanor Holm if she can give me a few poinTers on swimming. NOT only am I fascinafed and inTrigued by her diving and swimming, buT also by her form, grace, and beauTy. I can easily say ThaT I am going To wriTe To I-Iarold Gray and Tell him how he could accommodaTe his readers beTTer by having LiTTIe Orphan Annie grow up and maTure. Since Skeezix of The Gasoline Alley Comic seems To be geTTing older and more inTeresTing, I am cerTain ThaT LiTTIe Orphan Annie would also be of more inTeresT and enioymenf To her readers. On The oTher hand, I will IeT Jerry Siegel and Joe ShusTer know how much pleasure and conTenTmenT I geT from reading Superman . For a long Time now I have been having an inward debafe wiTh myself as To wheTher or noT I should wriTe To Doris Blake. Since she is capable of giving advice, I am cerfain I shall correspond wiTh her soon. AfTer reading Ellery Oueen's mysTery sfories. I am sure ThaT he musT receive a greaT deal of fan mail. Some day in The Tufure my IeTTer will be among The many oThers. MosT girls are inTeresTed in cIoThesg Therefore, I imagine I would enioy wriTing To Adrian, The famous Hollywood dress designer. Crifically, I will inform MarTin Block of The Make Believe Ballroom on The radio ThaT he spends Too much Time acIverTising and noT suTTicienT Time playing music. Scarcely a person wiTh whom I am acquainTed has never heard Bob I-Iope's program. Because of iTs comedy, humor, and casT, This program becomes a musT on our radio IisT. The Iiveliness and wiT of Bob I-Iope and his casT should be exfended To some of The dry and slow moving programs now on The air. When Brenda and Cobina are noT on, I, like numerous oTher people, will wriTe To Tell of my disapproval and disap- poinTmenT. I-Iave you ever heard Ezra STone as I-Ienry Aldrich? This program is heard by high school boys and girls because of iTs chief adoIescenT characfer, who is mischievous, humorous, and admirable. I would sincerely enioy wriTing a compli- menTary IeTTer To Ezra STone. WiTh warm esTeem and wiTh a friendly and confidenf aTTiTude, I shall correspond wiTh my former school Teachers To break The news To Them of my success or failure in The business world. Perhaps I mighT even wriTe To The Board of EducaTion To ask Them if somefhing cannoT be done abouT' The presenT sysfem, since many sTudenTs are bored of educaTion and Tail To aTTend school, be They inTeIIigenT and wise or sTupid and dumb. IT is a misfake for one To imagine ThaT The amiable, loyal, and quieT pupils do noT someTimes Tire of Their Alma Mafer. I am puzzled as To wheTher I will have enough nerve and courage To send These 27 IeTTers, or wheTher I will conTinue To procrasTinaTe wriTing Them as I have done in The pasT. Will I shrink Trom my own individual duTy, or will I bravely deposiT The IeTTers in The mail box? Since I owe iT To myseIT To correspond wiTh my TavoriTe ceIebriTies and also To Those who are umcavorable in my eyes, I musT Take The responsibiIiTy and noT waiT Tor This Task To be shiTTed To someone else. This is a Tree counTry where democracy exisTs. ImprisonmenT does noT resuIT Trom seriously wriTing To our mayor or congressman in order To express our opinion, as now happens abroad. In Toreign counTries The inhabiTanTs are noT Tree To wriTe Their views and beIieTs To Their oTTiciaIs. Our righTs and liberTies should be appreciaTed and noT Taken Tor granTed and shunned. ATTer Thinking iT over and Taking everyThing inTo consideraTion, I am posiTive ThaT I musT abandon my weak aTTiTude and adopT a policy oT leadership and iniTiaTive. Evelyn Wemssen L L L 7 CDR EEEK!

I-Ie iusT walked up To The desk, asked abouT a book, and as The librarian was abouT To hand iT To him, he Tell To The Tloor, dead! No marks, noThing! They're compIeTeIy baTFIed. WeII, Quickie, whaT are we waiTing Tor? GeT your haTI! We're oTI:. The Two jumped inTo a cab and in a Tew minuTes They arrived aT Their desTina- Tion. They wenT sTraighT To The library. Quickie Took down noTes and Yellery iusT saT and observed. Suddenly he jumped up. I've goT iT, he cried, whaT a Tool I've been! Before Yellery gives you The soIuTion, we will give our rocking-chair deTecTive, Mrs. KniTone PerIeTwo, a chance To give you her idea oT The soIuTion. Mrs. PerIeTwo, give! I Well, I don'T know: buT I guess I'd say iT was-The buTIer. Thank you very much. We're noT going To Tell you if ThaT's righT1 buT we'II beT you Tind ouT Tor yourself. FF wk FY FK ik IT's all very simpIe, Yellery was saying, iusT observe The oTher sTudenTs and Then Think back. WhaT happened? Spankie walked up To The desk, asked abouT a book. Then whaT? Did he Turn and walk away as Those oThers are doing? No! Think! The librarian was going To give him The book he asked Tor because, Tor The TirsT Time in his IiTe, The book was in. ThaT leaves buT one answer. My friends, Spankie Pane died oT shock!

Claire Mae Gallin I 1 L WI-IAT A NAME IS IN OR ARE MEN SMARTER TI-IAN WOMEN I don'T Think of my name in Terms of WhaT's in a Name? . My name is The subiecf of so many puns, ThaT I can Thirik of iT only in Terms of WhaT a Name Is In . Once a week during my odd numbered Terms I'd be greefed wiTh I-Iyieanne . In Biology I'm imporTanT as a characfer deferminer of all offspring from The Amoeba up. Somefimes in This connecfion, I'm a recessive Jeanne, and someTimes I'm a dom- inanT Jeanne. AnoTher honor of mine in Biology, as a Jeanneus. is being a classifying group of animals embracing one or more species. I could rave on and on wiTh These puns abouT my name, buT I Think I'II sTop wiTh Jeanneus. Ah! Jeanneusl ThaT's The name I Iike. IT sounds so inTeIIecTuaI. I Think I'II become a LaTin and call myself Jeanneus from now on. Oh shucksl my knowledge of LaTin iusf reminded me ThaT feminine LaTin names end in a . I can'T be a Jean- neusl IT's a man's world affer aII! Only a man can be a Jeanneus. Jeanne Sprifer A A A 30 x .,N1Q,' A ,Ng a Assy ..

Alabama College 4 JANUARY I94I FOUR YEARS IN LANE Our Senior Term has come and gone, and Tor us who are graduaTing iT means The end oT a happy associaTion wiTh Lane and iTs Teachers. BuT Though we are leaving, we keep wiTh us a Iimi+Iess sTore oT memories oT evenTs and people connecTed wiTh our Terms in Lane. I remember walking inTo The boy's locker room, luckily unoccupied aT The Time, on my very TirsT day in Lane. Things ThaT TirsT Term were a IiTTIe sTrange, new Teachers, new Triends, geomeTry wiTh Mr. Iv1cDonneII. Many oT us ThaT Term were preTTy much The IiT+Ie souls who weren'T There. Simulfaneously wiTh The Three o'clock bell we sTreaked home. Oh! buT The nexT Term, condiTioned Tinally To The whys and where- Tores oT The school schedule, we sTarTed our rush To clubs. Yours Truly was duly insTaIIed as vice-presidenT oT The MaThemaTics Club aT The TirsT meeTing I ever aTTended oT ThaT club. I guess They ThoughT ThaT was one way To insure membership, give every- body a responsibilify or an oTTice, and There was a Tairly even chance oT Their showing up again. We had To Take RegenTs Tor The TirsT Time ThaT Term. IT was Then ThaT I became acquainTed wiTh ThaT IoaThesome biT oT humaniTy who comes To a RegenTs exam main- Taining compIeTe ignorance oT everyThing and Then commences To discuss The obscuresT poinTs in The enTire TexT book, Throwing everybody, including yourseIT inTo a panic. ThaT reminds me oT anoTher kind oT panic, ThaT oT The Freshman who has IosT anyThing connecTed wiTh school. IT's inTeresTing To noTe The evoluTion oT a sTudenT Trom The madly rushing, biTTerIy weeping, Freshman searcher To The nonchaIanT, I'II-go-down-To- The-LosT-and-Found-someday-soon Senior. . The value oT The rush To The caTeTeria each day was greaTIy underraTed by mosT OT us. EirsT oT all The exercise involved in geTTing down early enough To geT Tood and a seaT is conducive To physical well-being. Secondly, The resTrainT used in reTraining 'From Tackling The pushers and The grabbers helps To develop an indomiTabIe will power. Speeches in English were The Terror oT our lives. For periods we walked around muTTering speeches To ourselves unTiI our English period arrived. Then suddenly we were seized wiTh a TiT oT palsy. Well we Tinally raTTIed oTT our speech, ending wiTh an appealing, I guess ThaT's all, To our Teacher. One oT The biTTeresT disappoinTmenTs many oT us experienced was being called Freshie aT The beginning oT our Senior Term. Here we had been Thinking ThaT Senior was iusT wriTTen all over us: well, iT was The day we goT our Senior buTTons. Then came The Taking oT our picTures and Tinally The day we goT ur prooTs back. Curious how lessons ThaT day were inTermingled wiTh ThoughTs oT frsenic, gas, and various IeThal insTrumenTs. Talking oT murder and suicide, remember our TirsT singing rehearsal and The Terrible beaTing Those songs goT? Then Tollowed weeks oT chaos in which Tour meeTings conTIicTed on one aTTernoon and several Teachers also requesTed our presence on The same aTTernoon. Seniors on The whole are a poor, miserable, inhibiTed, persecuTed Io+. IT's no wonder we develop complexes and Things. The VarsiTy Show, assembly programs, issues oT The ReporTer, Mr. Peshkin's voice coming Through The public address sysTem, The rush To geT To classes beTore The IaTe bell rang, The smell oT I-IQS which clings around The ChemisTry Lab., all These became parT oT The makeup oT our IiTe in Lane. And so Though These Things play no acTive parT in our TuTure IiTe, The memory OT Them may aTTord us many a happy momenT. Shirley Cohen A L L 7I 0 10 Q J Lh SENIOR DAY Senior dayl A day in which The candidaTes Tor graduaTion show iusT why They meriT The honor oT wearing The small inconspicuous, and conservaTive Senior BuTTons ThaT The Lane Seniors wear! Teachers show Their pride in Lane's oTTspring who seT such a good example To The under-classmen by Their digniTied manner, Their quieTness, and Their cooperaTion wiTh The Teachers. The lower-classmen gaze wiTh awe and respecT as These sTaTely, solemn Tigures sTroll by. IT This were only True, sigh our learned EacuITy. Amen, sigh our Deans oT boys and girls, Tor Senior day in Lane presenTs an enTirely diTTerenT picTure. When school opens a proTusion oT large blue and gray bows announces The arrival oT The Senior Class. I-Iowever, some original Seniors are noT conTenT To look like The resT. They do noT wanT Their individual personaliTies To be smoThered under such commonplace Things as bows. One boy, evidenTly dissaTisTied wiTh naTure's crowning gIory , has donned a red wig which goes admirably wiTh his red, apple-like Tace and rosy bIoT OT a nose. Some Seniors, To make The world aT large realize ThaT iusT because They have Tinally reached The eighTh Term They are noT yeT ready To collecT old-age pensions, have gone back To baby days. Here comes a crowd oT girls wiTh dresses above Their knees, adding To Their aTTracTiveness, wiTh all day suckers bulging ouT oT Their mouThs and large mamma dolls in Their arms. They are inTelligenTly discussing The evenTs oT The Economics class, during which a girl saT on her doll when The Teacher asked her a quesTion To which she did noT know The answer. Very ThoughTTuIIy, The doll had responded, Mamma , On Senior Day Lane democraTically represenTs all classes oT American liTe. ThaT iT conTains many agricuITuraIly-minded Seniors who inTend To increase The ranks oT The Tarming class can be seen Trom The abundance oT rusTics in Tarm cloThing. The sTruggle beTween CapiTaI and Labor also exisTs. There goes a rich capiTalisT, looking posiTively sTunning in an original baby bonneT probably designed by Schiaparelli, being pushed in a baby carT by an uncomplaining member oT The working class. OTher Seniors, more TarsighTed Than Their careless broThers, have made provision Tor The TuTure. They sTroll nonchaIanTly Through The halls wiTh large signs which read, W.P.A., here we come . These and oTher examples oT The ingenuiTy oT The TuTure graduaTes, as can be imagined, asTound and make The under-classrnen laugh. To keep order in school is almosT impossible, Tor how can a Teacher keep his class' mind on The cause oT The American RevoIuTion when appariTions like These sTroll inTo class. These people are The reason why we have a diTTerenT kind oTf Senior Day This Term. Marjorie Salgado L A A TI-IOUOI-ITS OE A SENIOR People are always sTopping To ask me, I-low does iT Teel To be a Senior? I look aT Them and say, l don'T know: I haven'T had Time To Tind ouT . And Then Tor myseIT I wonder abouT a IoT oT Things. I always wondered how iT was To be a Senior and now ThaT I am one, I don'T Teel any diTTerenT: in TacT I Teel very peculiar. Sounds crazy-doesn'T iT? BuT iT's True. Ever since I can remember, I've had The Teeling ThaT iT wasn'T I who walked in The halls oT Lane or who Talked To The various 72 sTudenTs. I've had The sensaTion ThaT I was a specTaTor looking aT The IiTe oT one, Alexandra I-Iomza, and oTTen when I was noT looking careTully enough, she would geT inTo some mischieT. Then Time passed so quickly: where iT wenT To, I didn'T know. I had Turned away Trom waTching To aTTend To someThing eIse,-and in ThaT momenT Time had gone. I was a Junior. I held my head a Ii+TIe higher. I was no longer one oT The Timid Sophomores. I was one oT Those know iT alIs , and yeT I was scared-scared To Think oT The TuTure. IT lay before me, a dark chasm ThaT held all oT The desTinies oT man and mine was among Them. I had no ambiTions: I jusT wanTed To be a success, ThaT's all. Then Time no longer lingered: insTead, seeing ThaT I was having such a nice Time in school, he scurried on and IeTT me Senior-To-be-GraduaTed-in-January. Where had I been all This Time and whaT had I been doing? The necessiTy Tor doing Those Things which I deemed unnecessary now came To me in a Tlash. Now They call me Senior, and I smile and acknowledge The greeTing. The cold realizaTion dawns upon me. Soon I will have To Tace The world and show The knowledge I have garnered in High School. I am unprepared because I was a specTaTor oT my own IiTe insTead oT being The acTor oT my own IiTe. The Teeling oT mighT and supremacy when a Treshman calls me a Senior is so exciTing, buT as To ThaT quesTion, I-low does iT Teel To be a Senior? , I don'T know The answer. I've had so IiT+Ie Time To Tind ouT. Alexandra Homza ' ' ' EvERYTHlNe BUT IT's so lovely here TonighT. The Gym looks beauTiTuI, and The music is soTT and smooTh. Everyone looks so diTferenT, noT aT all like The people you know in class. Yes, The Prom cerTainly is a success. And look who is coming in! IT's Mary. Funny ThaT she should be The one To come TonighT and noT her sisTer. Now don'T geT me wrong. There's noThing The maTTer wiTh Mary: iT's iusT ThaT Linlee is so ouTsTanding. You'd never guess ThaT They were sisTers. Mary is nice, as girls go: you know The Type, cuTe, dimpled, a biT on The chubby side, wiTh a big smile Tor everyone. BuT Linlee, m-m-m There's a girl Tor you! PerTecT dream Type--Tall, slim, gorgeous blond hair, and a warm inviTing charm all her own. Yes sir, she has iusT abouT everyThing: ThaT is every- Thing buT luck. ThaT's where Mary comes in. IT all happened a Tew monThs ago when The girls were in The counTry visiTing Their AunT. They were ouT walking along The road, when suddenly, Mary wenT down. She had sTumbled over a rock and hurT her ankle quiTe badly. She couldn'T walk: so Lin propped her up by The side oT The road and seT oTT Tor The nearesT Tarm. Now, you'd say off hand ThaT This was a biT of misTorTune Tor Mary, buT you'd be wrong. As she saT There moaning, a long, cream-colored roadsTer slid up along side oT her. Six TeeT Three inches oT solid rnan behind a beauTiTul smile sTepped ouT oT The car and oTTered help. Her ankle was iusT abouT killing her by Then: so Mary accepTed. ThaT's how iT sTarTed. And here's The Tinish. The man behind The smile Turned ouT To be quiTe a nice chap named Dick, who also happened To Take a special liking To Mary. lThaT's The Thing ThaT has us all guessing.l Try as she mighT, Linlee couIdn'T change his mind and diverT his aTTenTion To her beauTy. And believe me, she Triedl As a maTTer of TacT, she was so sure ThaT she would evenTually win ThaT she Turned down all oTher bids To The Prom. IT's Too bad, she'd be an inspiraTion in an evening gown: and besides, iT's such a grand alifair. IT's so lovely here TonighT. Marilyn Feldman A A A 73 Q 2:2 IP Bank, Mimaograplfm, and Deans' Squads Library Squad Band and Orchesfra A LETTER TO TI-IE PROM ESCORTH This Time I'm really going To wriTe ThaT leTTer. LeT's see: how shall I begin? Perhaps he would like To hear abouT my school liTe. I could wriTe so much abouT This Topic. ATTer all, now ThaT I'm a Senior, school should be a greaT source oT con- versaTionaI maTeriaI. Guess l'll IeT him know abouT our class venTure. I Think he would like To hear abouT The Wishing Well oT 226 . IT isn'T every day ThaT a Senior Class produces a real wishing well wiTh a buckeT and all. Oh no, iT isn'T every Term ThaT The Senior Class leaves a remembrance as swell as our wishing well. And whaT's more, everyone in school likes our liT+le brainchild . Why every Time I go To The well To make a wish, I encounTer a girl dropping in her coins and hoping Tor ThaT blond six TooTer: or a Tellow crossing his Tingers and praying TervenTly To make iT This Time: To Tinally graduaTe. BuT I needn'T menTion my sTandard wish. Oh, no, I don'T have To IeT him know ThaT each and every Time I drop my penny in, I hope ThaT he will ask me To The Prom. By The way, guess l'll menTion The Prom in my leTTer. lvlusT IeT him know ThaT The Time is drawing near when all nice Tellows come To The aid oT Their Tair girl- Triends. Yes, Prom Time is The Time ThaT all young ladies wake up and go on The look-ouT Tor Prom baiT. Gee, I wonder if he'lI look nice in a Tux? I can iusT imagine his six TooT oT manhood draped in a Tull dress suiT and me in my gown, sailing around The dance Tloor To The sooThing sTrains oT a silly love song played by The Lane Swing CaTs. BuT TirsT oT all, l'll inviTe him To Class NighT. BeT he'lI like ThaT. I'm sure iT's going To be one oT The swellesT Class NighTs Lane has ever had. IT had beTTer be. IT good hard work counTs, ThaT nighT can'T help buT be a success. Yes, I'm a Senior and iT sure is IoTs oT Tun. Why, wiTh a maximum oT social acTiviTies and a minimum oT classroom acTiviTies, being Seniors is all iT's cracked up To be . BUT now I'm really going To buckle down To work. I'm going To wriTe This IeTTer righT now. LeT's see: how shall I begin? JeaneTTe Leshinsky A A A UNPREPARING LESSONS I am going To discuss a quesTion which is oT greaTesT inTeresT To each and every sTudenT oT Lane. The quesTion is, How To unprepare lessons? AlThough I am noT an auThor- iTy on This subiecT, I do have enough experience To be able To speak inTelligenTIy and sanely abouT iT. The easiesT way To unprepare your lessons would be To lose The copy book in which you have copied The assignmenT. You mighT even IeT iT accidenTalIy Tall inTo your Turnace, or a reasonable Tacsimile. However, I Think These meThods are Too simple Tor LaneiTes. I Think The more complicaTed meThods. oT which There are a greaT many, will appeal more To Them. Besides being complicaTed, some are very pleasanT. For insTance, Take The Boy- Takes-Girl-OuT MeThod. All you have To do is To Take ouT your girl, as The name implies. IT I am any iudge oT young love ll was young oncel, I Think you will soon TorgeT abouT your homework. When you geT home, you will Tind ThaT iT is so IaTe ThaT you can'T do The homework even if you wanT To. 76 There is anoTher meThod called The I'lI-Do-IT-I.aTer lvIeThod. The besT sTudenTs use This meThod nowadays. In order To execufe This meThod, you have To plan your homework in The evening. When your friends call for you in The evening, go ouT wiTh Them. Don'T be a killioy. Enioy life while you are young. You can always do The homework in The morning. If you geT up IaTe, don'T give your homework anoTher ThoughT. You can always do iT in one of your sTudy periods. When you find yourself in your class wiThouT your homework, you will have The saTisfacTion of knowing ThaT you have unprepared your lesson well. I-Iowever, you will find yourself in an awkward siTuaTion when The Teacher asks you Tor The homework. Therefore, iT is necessary To have a few good excuses in order To be successful in unpreparing lessons. The younger The Teacher is The beTTer The excuse will work. Here is a reliable excuse. You Tell The Teacher in a sofT and choppy voice ThaT There was a deaTh in your home lsobl. OT course, you do noT Tell her ThaT iT was your peT mouse ThaT died. Or someTimes iT pays To Tell The TruTh. Tell The Teacher ThaT The girl from whom you usually copy your homework is absenT. She mighT be IenienT Towards you because you had inTenTions of doing iT. IT any of my suggesTions have helped you successfully To unprepare your lessons, please do me a favor and do noT reveal where you goT your suggesTions from. Philip Goz L A A 6 A TRIBUTE IT is wiTh greaT eagerness ThaT we look forward To The day of graduaTion, for we realize ThaT on ThaT day we shall be rewarded Tor successful learning. GraduaTion day marks The end of a long school career. As we walk down The aisle for The diplomas, we're conscious oT The glances of admiraTion and approval which are casT in our direcTion. Everyone is proud oT us. Mere words cannoT sufficienTIy describe our feelings. Even as we walk down The aisle we are Thinking of The handshakes and congraTuIaTions ThaT will be heaped upon us. Some congraTuIaTions leave our hands and backs aching, buT in spiTe of all This, 'Tis a gala occasion, one Tha+ will long be remembered. During The exciTemenT of graduaTion we should Turn our aTTenTion To The Teachers. IT is To Them ThaT The honors are due. Were iT noT Tor Them we'd noT know or experi- ence The Thrill of graduaTion. They worked unceasingly endeavoring To insfill viTaI knowledge wiThin us, and whaT's more, They refused To give The Toil up as Tu+iIe. They made us wanT To learn, and saw To iT ThaT our Time was noT wasTed. All These years They've devoTed Their Time To us, in an eTforT To make us fiT and desirable members of socieTy. Mainly Through Their guidance in The pasT we shall have no fear when we enTer The world, alone upon graduaTing. We know ThaT our Teachers have given us The means and encouragemenT To make our fuTure lives successful. We need only exercise Their prudenT Teachings. When our voices are raised in a chorus of cheers and TeIiciTaTions, IeT's noT forgeT Them, our Teachers, who have made possible our happiness. LeT's pay hearTTeIT TribuTe To Them. LeT's show Them ThaT we appreciaTe Their splendid eTforTs. We'II make oThers so proud of our Teachers' achievemenTs ThaT They will willingly .ioin in our songs of praise.

ForTunaTeIy or unTorTunaTeIy, one biT of ToresighT has been exercised The previous Term, Tor when Tilling ouT The TenTaTive programs, excepT Tor The assiduous, all have requesTed only Three majors, wiTh a Tew possible excepTions. IGee, if I hadn'T Tailed English 5, I'd have only Three rnaiorsll There is only one expIanaTion Tor The Seniors' presence in school during The oTher periods-someone musT annoy The Teachers, and who else can accomplish This TeaT as skillfully as do The Seniors? Somehow or oTher, They are always doing The wrong Thing aT The wrong Time, and, when expIanaTions Tor Their behavior are demanded, mosT exasperaTing and ridiculous excuses are oT- Tered. Their knack Tor becoming involved is uncanny. Every lunch period oTher Than The one designaTed seems TempTingg every conceivable Task excepT The homework assigned warranTs aTTenTion: everyone and anyone eIse's book reporT seems To be iusT The one To hand in, especially since you haven'T wriTTen one yourseIT. WhaT is iT ThaT causes This behavior? Term in, Term ouT, Those who hope They are inhabiTing The school Tor The lasT Time undergo These changes. In appearance, excepT Tor Their armor. They resemble The average sTudenT. BUT Then, on one day Their appearance Too is ouTsTanding, Tor on Senior Day, The mosT inTanTiIe aTTire and behavior are assumed. All inhibiTions are disregarded.

MargareT FIeTcher A A A PracTicabiliTy oT Physics IT we use a IiT+Ie imaginaTion, we can see many pracTicaI uses oT many Things we have learned. For insTance, leT us see iT we can see any pracTical illusTraTion oT The Law oT MagneTism, which is one oT The Iaws sTudied in Physics. The Iaw sTaTes ThaT There is a Tield oT Torce around cerTain obiecTs. This Torce eiTher aTTracTs or repels. There are many examples where The magneTism is an aTTracTing Torce. For ex- ample, a girl musT have a Torce oT aTTracTion. She has such an aTTracTion Tor The opposiTe sex. There musT also be a Tield oT aTTracTion around a pen. I-low else can you explain The reason Tor The number oT hands iT aTTracTs. The Held oT aTTracTion around an auTomobiIe musT be increasing. IT you don'T believe me, look up The acci- denT raTe. A Teacher once Told me oT a very remarkable moTh. IT will Tly Thousands oT miles in order To Tind iTs maTe. This is noT very remarkable when you Think oT iT as having a Tield oT aTTracTion. IT we wanT some more examples oT Tields oT aTTracTion, we don'T have To look very Tar. There are many examples oT iT here in Lane. An inTeIIigen+ sTudenT's paper has a sTrong field OT aTTracTion Tor The oTher sTudenTs' eyes. lAs I am one oT Those inTelIi- genT sTudenTs l??l I have noTiced This many Times.l Eyes seem To have an aTTracTion Tor many Things. They aTTracT aTTenTions, splinTers, and hard obiecTs such as TisTs ldoorsl. There are iusT as many examples oT Tields ThaT repel as There are oT Tields ThaT aTTracT. These Tields usually Tollow a Tield oT aTTracTion. When a boy is aTTracTed Too much To a girl, he is repelled lsmackl. ATTer Two cars are aTTracTed, There is a violenT repelling Torce. There is also a repelling Torce beTween a pen and a hand when The owner oT The pen unexpecTedIy comes wiThin sighT. SomeTimes There is an ouTside Torce which breaks up The Tield oT aTTracTion and causes a repelling Tield insTead. A Teacher looking aT a sTudenT who is copying is an example oT such an ouTside Torce. I Think I have given enough examples To show ThaT school subiecTs are very pracTicaI. They help explain many common Things. The only Trouble is ThaT Teachers don'T appreciaTe some oT These pracTical ilIusTraTions.

WhaT a liTe iT would be if we could spend our Time loaTing. I've been Thinking abouT how Terrible iT is To geT up early every morning To go To school or work, and how wonderful iT would be To sTay in bed or siT under a Tree and IoaT. Oh! WhaT pleasures There are To a nice soTT, warm bed where all There is To do is sleep and IoaT or IoaT and sleep lTo Think oT iT makes me yawn wiTh pleasurel. For anoTher ideal place To loaT, how abouT a shady spoT on a hoT summer's day wiTh a sTream rolling pasT! and your Tishing line noT even baiTed Tor Tear oT having To pull in a Tish iusT TIoaTing pasT? To me ThaT's The IiTe, and I can'T Think oT anyThing nicer. i MosT people believe ThaT you musT always be working, or on The go, wiThouT Taking any Time ouT To IoaT. My ideas are diTTerenT: I believe ThaT people musT work buT They should noT make iT lasT and lasT and lasT. These people should Take Time ouT Tor IoaTing in order To geT some ioy ouT of liTe. People who work all The Time never have Time To Think of anyThing buT Their iobs and can'T really enioy IiTe. This should all be changed wiTh my Theory oT loafing. People should allow Themselves To receive all The pleasures ThaT IoaTing can bring. While loaTing, people have Time Tor ThoughTs-ThoughTs on all sorTs oT subiecTs. LoaTing always makes people in some way curious oT Things around Them. When .one is lying on a soTT grassy spoT looking up aT The clouds TIoaTing by, he geTs curious and Tries To Think oT The I'Iow, Where, and Why, oT These beauTiTuI Things ThaT people geT so much pleasure ouT oT. yeT know so Ii++Ie abouT. When one is iusT IoaTing around The house, ways ThaT Things can be Tixed come To mind loT course one who is IoaTing doesn'T do any such Tixingl. For a happier and more ThoughTTuI IiTe I hereby declare, up wiTh IoaTing and down wiTh Too much work . 5 A 5 RoberT BarneTT 82 1 ,,,.n.4 .R . X is W 5 Q Q. 'C 2 2 ' 5 .

This change is Tor The beTTer, as our naTural compeTiTion, since The school moved, is wiTh The Queens Teams. Midway in QcTober, The VarsiTy was picked and pracTice was sTarTed in earnesT. When Time Tor The opening game rolled around, The shooTing and passing were more accuraTe, The rough spoTs had been ironed ouT, and The Team work was good. WalTer Budko, Johnny Sandman, George McQueen, Willie ConTi, Lou BrownTeld, and a new- comer, Tony Eranzo had been picked To shoulder mosT oT The responsibiliTy Tor The coming year. Hope Tor a championship Team ran high. In The opener wiTh EasTern DisTricT, Lane wenT down 2l-I9. We goT oTT To a good sTarT scoring 9 poinTs beTore DisTricT knew whaT had happened. Lane had been drilled according To zone deTense and when iT came To man To man play They were losT. WalTer Budko was high scorer wiTh 9 poinTs. Going in as The under dog, Lane losT Their second noneleague game To a powerTul JeTTerson High Team by a score oT 50-4l. Lane was leading aT The halT, buT blew iT because oT bad breaks. George McQueen scored 25 poinTs, which is someThing oT a record in iTselT. Johnny Sandman played a good backboard game, buT his shooTing was oTT. BeaTing Brooklyn Tech 25-2l on November 29, Lane was able To lay claim To iTs TirsT vicTory oT The season. The game was comparaTively slow, wiTh The Toul shooTing oT boTh Teams being Terrible. Tech's Paul Yesawich was The high scorer wiTh IO poinTs and easily The ouTsTanding player oT The game. Qur Willie ConTi was nexT, scoring 8 poinTs. Lane led aT The end oT every guarTer. BASEBALL LasT year The Blue Sox won 2, losT I2, Tied I and wound up in lasT place in The Queens League. AlThough The resulT looked preTTy bad, many oT The losses were hearT- breakers Tor Coach Berman's boys: such as The day Tom Ranieri allowed Jackson only Three hiTs and Then wenT down 3-Ig when EriTz Von Essen, aTTer piTching a swell game againsT John Adams, losT 7-2, because oT errors: when I-luTch Morison Took 85 F IXBD The box in The TourTh, aTTer Flushing l-ligh had collecTed 6 in The second, 2 in The Third and didn'T give a hiT, buT Lane Tell 8-2. Four oT The games were Ios+ by one poinT and Two oThers because oT 2 poinTs. No maTTer wheTher They were winning or losing, every man played as hard and as well as he could. Individually The players were good and would have been an asseT To any Team, buT as a whole They lacked ThaT someThing ThaT makes winning clubs. Ranieri and Von Essen piTched Their hearTs ouT: Red Townes sweaTed behind The plaTe and Johnny Sandman baTTed .263 and raced all over The ouTTield buT luck iusT wasn'T wiTh Them. Eleven maiors and seven minors were given To The Team members. During The warm days oT SepTember, Mr. Berman had The boys ouT baTTing The ball around To geT an idea oT whaT The '4I ediTion would be like: Two hundred boys Tried ouT and abouT ThirTy were kepT. OuTside oT ThaT, all we can do is waiT Tor nexT Spring To roll around. SWIMMING AT This wriTing The Mermen appear To be heading Tor a beTTer season Than They have ever had. ln The opening meeT, They beaT Manual Training 30-28. The Tollowing week, They bowed 36-3l in Tavor oT Madison. They Then hiT Their sTride To Take Brooklyn Tech 38-30 and New UTrechT 50-l7, and again bowed To Lincoln 36-31. A greaT deal oT crediT Tor These vicTories should go To Teddy Volosevich, who Took Three TirsTs in as many Tries. Paul Dupovick was elecTed To capTain This year's Team. LiTTle Charlie WalTers, Bob MelenThin, D. Galland, KosTica, William Sullivan and The TaiThTul veTeran oT The 220, FriTz STedman were picked To be in There TighTing when needed. Missing Trom This year's line up is Paul lllg. In represenTing us in diving Tor nearly Two years, he held an almosT perTecT record and his loss will be regreTTed. Lane's second league swimming loss occurred aTTer They were downed 36-3I by Lincoln. Lane Took TirsT in The 50 yd. Tree sTyle, 50 yd. backsTroke, and The 220 Tree- sTyle, which was Taken by FriTz STedman in 2:5I. This was The TirsT Time Lane was beaTen in The new medley relay or in The diving. HANDBALL Coach Login's charges, The wall breakers, had anoTher good season winding up in second place in The league sTanding. They were well on The way To games from Bayside, Richmond Hill, Jackson, and Jamaica. The game ThaT decided The cham- pionship we losT 4-l To NewTown. Lou Pasquierillo was The only man To win a maTch. As The Team will remain pracTically The same and The boys will do a liTTle pracTicing in The small gym, Their chances look preTTy good Tor nexT year. Seven maiors and Three minors were awarded To The Top ranking players. INTRAMURALS Moving ahead wiTh renewed vigor, The lnTramurals Programs boasTed an excep- Tionally large TurnouT This year. As This is The Fall Session, The principal acTiviTy is The inTer-class baskeTball conTesT. Gold medals will be given To The winners. Mr. Weiss, who is in charge of The swimming division, inTormed us ThaT he would like To organize grade Teams and have races laTer on. How This works ouT will depend on The response he geTs. The regular aTTernoon swimming sessions are gaining in popu- lariTy every Term. 86 LEADERS CORPS On December l3fh fhe Corps puf on ifs annual show, which was as usual, a greaf success. The show was builf around fhe apparafus Tricks, wifh fhe boys doing some sfunfs, covered wifh gilded painfs. Dancing fook place as usual affer fhe show. Af fhe beginning of fhe ferm 23 boys were added, which broughf fhe Corps sfrengfh fo 40. All members are now equipped wifh uniforms and pins. The show money will be used fo buy addifional equipmenf. Wifh fhis graduafion, we bid adieu 'ro JOHNNY SANDMAN, who made good on fhe baskefball courf, as well as fhe diamond: fo TOM RANIERI, who did his share of mound work, fo BOB MADMANN and fo ERITZ STEDMAN and fo GALLAND for fheir aquafic accomplishmenfs. Also a word of fhanks should go fo JERRY REAGAN for managing lasf year's hoopsfers and fo JERRY OHLERT for helping wifh fhis year's edifion, and fo NORMAN SCHNEIDER for giving fhe swimmers a hand, fo VICTOR RUVULO and fhe GUYON TWINS for adding color fo fhe Cheering Squad. And before we close, we would like 'ro remind you 'ro give fhe papers a glance, and see how fhe old Blue and Grey is making ouf in years fo come. Herberf Brusl' A GIRLS' SPORTS Oh, look! Here comes fhe parade. l+'s a Sporls Parade-a pageanf of Seniors oufsfanding in 'rhe field of afhlefics. Leading fhe froupe is PAULINE SCHMIDT, professional soffball player, sfar baskefballer, and all-around champion af any sporf she goes ouf for. Pauline, who is a member of fhe Afhlefic Council, was recenfly awarded a soffball sfafueffe and medal for her achievemenfs in fhaf field oufside of school. Nexf in line we have ELAINE PETERS and NORMA DEAR, presidenf and vice-presidenf of fhe Afhlefic Council, Lane's Arisfa of sporfs. Elaine, when nof busy wifh her many ofher school acfivifies, may be seen assisfing Mrs. Reid af fhe Leaders' Club or refereeing a baskefball or volleyball game. She also shines, as does Norma, on fhe baskefball courf. Norma has been occupying her affernoons wifh fhe Hockey, Volleyball, Leaders', and Baskefball Clubs, in which she plays, coaches, and generally makes herself useful. Following fhem in fhe pageanf are JUNE HAHN, WANDA CARINI, and YOURS TRULY. We fhree are nof alone in our choice of clubs, for baskefball is again fhe favorife, wifh Hockey, Tennis, Volleyball and Leaders' following. June, fhe arfisf- afhlefe, is responsible for a greaf many of fhose affracfive posfers which adorn fhe deparfmenf's showcases and bullefin boards. She is also fhe absenf-minded secrefary af Council meefings. To complefe fhe lisf of graduafing Council members we give you MIRIAM GORDON and HANNAH GOLDBERG. Hannah has unforfunafely been unable fo affend clubs fhis ferm, buf formerly, volleyball gof mosf of her affenfion. Alfhough Miriam spends mosf of her spare fime affending fo records so 'rhaf you ersfwhile afhlefes may gef your club credif, she has been seen af fhe Hockey and Volley- ball Clubs. I The main group of fhe parade has passed, as fhe Afhlefic Council medallion fades info 'rhe fufure. This body has been fhe guiding sfar of all exfra-curricular sporfs acfivifies of fhe Blue and Grey for many years now, buf fhis ferm if has really come Q7 inTo iTs own. Thanks To The indusTry and enThusiasm of The CounciI's facuITy adviser, Mrs. Reid, Lane's aThleTic lassies have again been able To aTTend Their favoriTe clubs. While on The subiecf, we musT of course give Thanks also To Miss Fusco for her able supervision of hockey and To Mrs. Dixon Tor her diligence in Teaching Freshmen The rudimenfs of social dancing. Marching along under The nexT large banner are four famous baskefball forwards, namely VIRGINIA HOEPPNER, MYRTLE BLIND, IRENE SPILLANE and DOROTHY FOX. Virginia is known hereaboufs for her long shoTs which seldom miss. Nina, of The same family, now a sevenTh Termer, is following very closely in The TooTsTeps of her big sisTer. ThaT red-head you may have seen knocking over backboards in The gym during The eighTh period is our own IiTTIe MyrTle, anoTher professional sofTbalI player. DoroThy, noT Iimifing herself To one club, has gone ouT Tor hockey and volleyball also, while Irene is a member of The advanced swimming club. We come now To The Iasf, and one of The mosT publicized groups in The pageanT. The Ospreys, made up of many marvelous mermaids, are abouT To lose Twelve oT Their TuTure Olympic sTars. Among The mosT iIIusTrious oT These are BETTY JEAN POTTS, ALEXANDRA HOMZA, and JEANETTE WEIS, all-around swimmers and divers, and ANNA LEVY and FLORENCE MUNDHENK, good disTance swimmers. Mrs. Bauer would never Torgive me, I'm sure, if I neglecfed To menTion FLORENCE BARON, swimmer and dancer in our pool pageanfs, CATHERINE CARONNA, ROSALIND ZWICKER, MILDRED HEMME, MARGARET WEIS, ALICE BRUGGEMAN and MAR- GARET FLETCHER, who have all done Their parf in making The Ospreys as famous as They are Today. The parade is over and The fanfare has died away in The disTance: buT Those who have gone To make up The big show will remain wiTh us in memory as The ouTsTanding aThIeTes of our Senior Class.

We have compleled four years lor morel of high school sfudy and work. Everyone says, Thank goodness l'm geffing ouf , buf yel' everyone does feel sorry lhaf he is going fo leave. We fhoughf lin lower gradesl fhaf graduafes were imporfanl' people: buf now fhal' we are approaching fhaf long awaifed day we find we're nof so imporfanl' affer all. ln facf, we feel so small, fhaf no words can describe our feeling. Affer coming fo a place confinually for four years il becomes home fo us. Because we afe here and slepl' here lin sfudy hall or classesl, if has become our second home. There will be lumps in our fhroafs as we ask each ofher lo sign fhe Senior Echoes. We regref leaving fhe feachers, even fhough some of fhem failed us. As much as we disliked l-leallh Educalion we feel ralher remorseful af leaving our lockers empfy of our suifs and sneakers, To know fhal' fhaf parficular locker shared your ioys and sorrows, one feels sorf of regrefful af leaving if for someone else fo use. We find lhaf leaving all fhose fhings fhaf once gave us pain, leaves us more painful . We have goflen 'lo know fhe feachers and sfudenfs so well fhaf leaving fhem will leave a big gap in our everyday affairs. Wherever we go, whalever new faces we see in olher schools or places of business, we will never forgef our old ones. High School plays such an imporfanl parl' in our lives in lraining us for olher schools or business fhaf we're going fo miss if. We'll go fo new places, see new faces, make new friends: nofhing will be familiar fo us. Buf reflecling, we will have fond memories of our Alma Mafer, Franklin K. Lane. Jusfine A.
