Uibe iluninr from At first you said, Oh, heck. It will be just like any other dance. Later you said, It doesn't matter to me whether or not I go? But you did go, and when nine o'clock on Friday, April the 30th rolled around you got that awful sinking feeling ---- this was your last Pram, the last time you would be all together as a class ---- you realize how much you are going to miss it all, so you'll always remember this night - your last Junior Prom. Then at last, you arrived. Everything portrayed excitement:- frilly skirts, sweet music, and Oh! yes - tuxedos. Maybe this was your last Program Dance, and you found it nice to be dancing with all your different classmates. The thme just seemed to fly ..... first dance .... . second dance ..... third, fourth, fifth, and then intenmission. The food looked so good, but you wanted to be dignified and not eat too much -- just enough. Back dancing --- you find yourself smiling and saying 'hello' to this one and that one, but never really noticing anything much ex- cept that nYou'd Be So Nice To Come Home Ton never sounded quite so lovely before. Then came the realization that it was over, all all over - already Hume in bed you rememberedg you'll always remember --- searching for the balloon with your name on itg surprise program partners, Joe's leading the Grand Marchg the chummy atmosphereg grape punch and cookiesg orchestra dedicationsg and the JUNIORS -- for giving us the best Pram in the World. We'll always remember. JCKZKQ ps f 5 -' 45 H 4b an - 1. ,liifl ' M IL U -Fat 1 N L M I -N 'Nr K i rg .. .Lf 'gl i ' f ,t J ' I t 1 A 1, X gn.j? a , N! gl Abil E ' Y Rfanl, ,X

lv 4' s I The pupils of Greenbelt High School, by selling war bonds and stamps, bought two jeeps. The elementary School pupils bought four jeeps and a motorcycle. We presented our jeeps on May 18, 1945 to the 76th Inf. S i r Class Joe of Fort Meade. The president of the en o , Cashman, spoke o the behalf of the high school students. Captain Lewis Marcy expressed the appreciation of the Army for the cooperation of the pupils that had been given in the selling of war bonds and stamps. Staff Sergeant Earl Burson, U. S. Army, who had been in the commando raid on Dieppe, spoke briefly concerning the morale and fortitude of French, English, and American soldiers. We, the pupils, bought jeeps for the Army. When we ive jeeps it builds up tha morale of the boys on the land, 5 on the sea, and in the air. we should keep trying to sell d the service stamps and bonds because our future depen s upon men. By buying the bonds we show that we are proud to be Americans-we're glad to be able to support those who fight while we study. V Ri ha d s ernon c r s
