arking on the Journey Wow, Sally, ya kni) v what seems characteristic of the freshmen this year? Class Spirit! They ' re really ' on the beam ' . Reminds me of the good ole days, when we were freshmen ourselves. Oh, yes, Sue, remember the first day we came to Girls High? All summer we had been so sophisticated about entering senior high; we really thought we were super. Then on that fateful morning in Septem- ber we approached the enormous structure at the top of the hill. My heart suddenly went down, down, into the depths. I wanted to turn around and run. But everyone was so friendly when we got ' inside ' . Remember our senior sisters, Janice and Josie? We really would have been lost without them. I hope every senior is as much help to her freshman sister as they were to us. One of the things that keep Girls High standards so high is that each class tries to live up to those that have gone before, and even to do better than they. , ; Speaking of frcshrnan sisters, I was never so proud in my life as when mine was elected cutest from her home room. Oh, wasn ' t Freshman Day fun! Balloons, dolls, candy, excitement — but definitely excitement! Everyone was simply bubbling over with laughter and gaiety. Although the freshmen were a little dismayed at the stacks of books and promises of long themes, they soon picked themselves up off the floor and turned their enthusiasm towards becoming good students. Have you ever no- ticed the difference between a freshman just entering and one who will soon become a proud ' B ' ? A year at Girls High starts a girl on the road of her ' tomorrows ' , and it gives her the tools of self-reliance, ability, industry, and ccxjpcration, with which she will carve out a place for her- self in the new world of helicopters and television. A freshman at Girls High has the chance to prepare for a future that holds much promise and hope. They haven ' t been doing so. badly here at Girls High. Can you im- agine — for the first time— the freshmen won the Crow Contest! It was a surprise to me, but all 1 say is, if they can do it — more power to them. They really held up their end of the volleyball tournament, too. They had me scared for a while there. Ya know. Sue, I like that fresh- man class. There ' s s :)mething so fresh and earnest and cooperative about them. Although they ' re not cockey and self-centered, they ' re still not timid and bashful. They give you the feeling that they ' re out for big things, and they give you a sneaking suspicion that they ' re going to get big things. The world they ' re going to inherit may not be rosy-hued, but it ' s all they ' ll have, and I ' ve an idea that their ambition and hard work will mold it into a land of sunshine and promise — a land of oppor- tunity. Now, Sally, don ' t go getting philosophical. After all, we ' re seniors, and you know senifjrs don ' t have a care in the world. Although I really hate to leave Girls High and venture into the unknown, I know that this freshman class will help Girls High to grow and expand and im- prove. Say, it ' s time for basketball practice. If we don ' t get out there, those fre.shmcn will heat us to a pulp. t ' ' 26
