WE SEE OURSELVES As Seniors, perhaps, we reached the high point of our journey. With classes and examinations acting as signposts and always pointing the way toward our ultimate goal, came the events which we truly could call our own. As we look through the looking-glass, we see these events - the Junior Prom, the Senior Ball, the Senior Play, the Senior Expres- sion Recital, Patrons' Evening, our own firsts, and Senior Day elections, adding to our joy and serving as a reminder that our journey is soon to close.

' EXTERIOR OF THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL ' Architect: Office of Marcus T. Reynolds, Ralph H. Parks, Associate. THE NEW HIGH SCHOOL The architect's drawing of the new high school, on which work has already been started, is a front view showing the main entrance facing on Quade Street near the corner of Sherman Avenue. The wing to the right houses a community auditorium of 1500 seats with a one-story section housing dramatics and speech class rooms and dressing rooms. The auditorium is 84 X 100 feet with a 32 X 42 foot stage. Comfortable, fixed, theatre-type seats are on a slanting floor to guarantee good visability. Not visible in the picture and directly behind the auditorium is the gymnasium capable of seating 2000 sports fans. The gymnasium is 90 X 90 feet. The bleachers slide out from the walls and there is a balcony. The locker rooms, showers, and drying rooms are conveniently located to serve both indoor and outdoor athletics. A large cafeteria seating 200 can easily be converted for use in the audio-visual education or for meetings of small community groups. Also included on the first floor are the shop wing and music rehearsal and storage rooms to the right of the auditorium and gymnasium. To the left are the administrative oflices, home economics and commercial departments, and the medical unit. The second floor contains the gymnasium and auditorium balconies, two study halls, the library and seminar room, and the English and social studies class rooms. On the third floor are the biology, chemistry, and physics laboratories, language and mathematics class rooms, and the art room. All rooms throughout the building are to be individually ventilated. The building is being constructed of white earth blendv brick with limestone trim, and Class AU fire resistant materials. It is hoped that the Class of 1952 will have the privilege of being graduated from the new high school. Page Tbfrfcen
