Edna Hilliard Foreign languages is the subject to which Mrs. Hilliard does not object. But knitting to her is a great delight; she likes to prac¬ tice it morning and night. Charles Ross Mr. Ross is our coach; to call him ‘ ' Punchy brings reproach. He says that, to him, boxing is fun and he ' s never been down to the count of one. Doris Reynolds Miss Reynolds got her degree, sold her dog kennels, and thought she was free. Now she teaches English at Galesburg High, and my! how she is spry! John Smith Mr. Smith is the farmer of the crowd and of his chickens he ' s very proud. Since his classes consist mostly of boys, the pres¬ ence of girls he seldom enjoys. Rudolph Swanson Mr. Swanson teaches shop. At times his job he ' d like to swap. His favorite pas¬ time is fishing but till school ' s out he just sits wishing. John Wagar Hunting and fishing are sports, you see, and with Mr. Wagar both agree. Lab ex¬ periments we all enjoy but our Chemistry teacher we do annoy.

On May 29th the Seniors bade farewell to “4 years of work mixed with fun. ....As Freshmen we passed through the usual stages of bubble-gum, squirt guns, and paper wads. ....As Sophomores we confined ourselves to just plai n gum. We had dances, con¬ cessions at games, parties, hayrides. We made money and we lost money. ....As Juniors we grew up still more. We had more dances, more parties and we were earning more money......until the Junior-Senior Prom. We worked and worked for this, cut classes, bought formats, ordered flowers, and then finally the big night. We had our banquet at Schensul ' s with Dean Pellett of W.M.C. our guest speaker. Then at 9:00 we went to the Harris Hotel, where we joined Richland in the ballroom and danced until midnight. After the dance we had breakfast parties at various homes .and oh yes, the Junior Play. We spent every night for six weeks rehearsing and rehearsing, and up until it was over we were positive it would fiop, but Mr. Hahnen- berg did wonders for us ....As Seniors, we felt we’d finally made it. We ' ll never forget the work we put on the Annual and the school paper....the clubs....the football and basketbal I games ....and again the Junior-Senior Prom with all its excitement. This year we had both dinner and Prom at the Harris Hotel and it was wonderful !...the Senior Trip....a boat cruise to Mackinac Island. Oh!! What fun we had!!....and then final s....but most im¬ portant of all COMMENCEMENT, May 29th. We ' ll never forget the close of “4 unforgettable years. We realize that we are going out into a difficult and disturbing world, but we are willing to meet the chal lenge. Uu Seniots
