The returning mob is gleefully followed by the canine population of the town. Coulter's little black cocker sneaks into the north door. Farina's crafty Caesar has been a visitor in every class. Big dogs, little dogs-they stalk the halls and romp the campus. Here Lucius has been as- signed the task of bouncer. The culprit of course will be admitted by the next sophomore up the path. Teachers resent the competition of workmen outside the building. Mr. Pick- ering, how can you expect me to have class with that noise outside my room. My nerves won't stand it and I simply can't make myself heard. Anyway, the building got all dressed up. Afternoon schedule. Activity period- club meetings, committee meetings, re- hearsals, except of course on Holy Mon- day when not a soul stirs from his home room. Line forms to the right. Classes. Speech-the awful noises are explained as voice cultivation. Here they train for posture perfection. Easy there, Muth. Salesmanship schemes. A drink of cider with every Spy sold and a look at the only red bat in captivity. Super strate- gists are Baer and Monroe. Chest testing day. Right this way for an X-Ray. Galion high cooperates in the national drive against tuberculosis. All these manly torsos and nary a T. B. germ. Bulletin boards afford pleasure and give information about a busy school. Here students are admiring the clever basketball board complete with pictures of the team and coaches, game statistics and newspaper clippings. A hand points to a sign. The sign warns Pugh and Phipps that parking will no longer be tolerated. Didn't work. Afternoon assemblies. Some are stu- dent presentations, some are presented by guest artists, some are rallies for ap- proaching games. One of the most im- pressive we have attended was the Hi-Y service honoring the Galion high school alumni members and ex-students who gave their lives in the World War II. An honor plaque with the names of our valiant dead inscribed was presented to the school and now hangs in the main corridor. Dickhart, Vossers, ancl Hublcy took part in the solemn dedicatory ex- ercises. During fifth period the Spy grows to maturity in room 306. A typewriter clicks. Pencils scratch over paper. The dummy grows in size. Veda Dysinger, after one lesson in photography, takes a shot of the editor and the photographer. See Spy page for proof of results. f The future Van Goghs of the advanced art class get down to some serious work. This class has some very talented artists -Evans, Bristow, Taylor, Beegle, Pugh and Myers to name only a few. Art stu- dents and Mrs. Liddell are always ready to contribute their time and efforts to the making of posters, the designing of pro- gram covers, or what other art work do you want done?

AFTER .S'CfIO0I ACTIVITIES' Four o,clock and the day is over. What's that? Over-for how many? An- other day begins at four. Many students scurry to jobs,in factories and stores. Beecher stirs a concoction for Jim Chinni fhe of the pork pie hat, while smiling Barbara Poland and Bea Shockley look on. Tickets for the game will be sold at the box office at four o'clock.,' That announcement is good for a jammed cor- ridor any day. That basketball team certainly furnished us with thrills. Here the crowd waits to buy tickets to the Norwalk game. In a babble of conversation over events of the day, many co-eds saunter down- town for a coke. They chat to the accom- paniment of juke box music and plan what they will do tonight. Adair, Barbara, Janet, Maxine and Carol recuperate after a hard day. The schoolls brawny men of the grid- iron ancl the court have their late after- noon hours all planned in advance. It's real work, but it,s fun. What do Treisch, Vossers and Neff talk about as they dress for basketball practice? Later after a hard workout, Ramsey, Baer and Vossers sing under the showers as splashing water relaxes tired muscles. When a play is on the boards, four olclock means rehearsal. Not only does the cast work faithfully but stage crews must plan their effects. Here the sound experts, Ness, Wolf, Carleton and Seeds, experiment. Their object is to produce the sound of an old jaloppy starting. Result-perfect and decidedly realistic. That Feidner boy wields a mean cleav- er as he dissects a chicken. He's practical- ly inclispensible to Mr. Kroger. Some students like to walk and com- mune with nature. Tuscan just can't wait for spring, because spring means baseball and that's what Tuscan thinks of when he thinks of spring--mostly. Here he inspects the torn and bleeding bases and wonders if new equipment will be forth- coming before the local nine starts that tough schedule of games. Sophomore girls are usually in an in- decisive state. What'll we do? Have a coke? Go to the library? Go home? Don't be idiotic. Stand around a bit in the spring sunshine and make up your minds. Lil Georgie Triesch makes a phone call and gosh it must be good news! - In room 211 the captives sit. McManes and other late comers are there. Also a few who forgot to come at all. Also those cases of Talking after the quiet bell. - Wasting time in study hall. - Disturb- ance in classf'- Leaving building with- out permission. - Making noise like a sheep. Was that somebody you? Their day lasts until four-thirty and we hadn't the heart to photograph their misery. So, what do we do after school? We plan for the night that's coming.
