It has been the custom of the Reader's Digest magazine for a number of years to present a year's free subscription of the magazine to the vale- dictorian of the graduating class of each high school in the United States. This award was presented by Sup-t. Spenner to Miss Helen Jo Glatthaar, the valedictorian of this year. The group singing of America was led by the high school music di- rector, Mrs. Elaine Camp. The program closed with the class song: ...v.- SENIOR CLASS SONG Parents and friends, we're glad, That you are here: Glad that you all may know, Weive passed our Senior year with cheer. And now as we set our sails, Our goals are high, Impossible is un-American, So let us do or die. Gladly we shout your praise Oh, Guymon High Sad we shall be in leaving, All our friends we'll not deny, Then let us give a cheer, As on we pass, We are a loyal band, to, Hip Hurray, Hurray for this our class. --'Page 'l'wenty-seven-

Qlau fbaff The senior class of '45 and their sponsor, Mrs. R. J. Herbel, presented their class day program during the chapel hour, Friday morning, May llth at the Guymon High School Auditorium. Bobby Joe Hays, master off ceremonies, led the flag salute. The class history, will and prophecy were delivered in the form of clever playlets, combined with pantomine, which was a pleasant departure from the usual method of presentation. It was noticed especially, that this class succeeded in including plenty of wit in their program, without the barbs which some- times mar an otherwise pleasant occasion. The class history was presented by Neeta Dale, assisted by Bob Reeder, Betty Jeanne Pauley, Mildred Johnson, Sam Craig, R. M. Moore, Eloise Timmons, Merril Dryden, Pete Bateman, Dwain Thrall and Joanna Durst. The class will was given by Louise Imler assisted by Lyla Delano, Lura Jean Calhoon and Dwight Davis. Miss Belva Jean Lightner disclosed the class prophecy to the anxiously waiting group. The class poem by Dwight Davis displayed originality and was well delivered. A vocal solo by Miss Joanna Durst and a piano solo by Belva Jean Lightner were pleasant interludes. - Miss Helen Jo Glatthaar and Miss Anne Booker had the honor of de- livering the valedictory and salutatory addresses, respectively, which were charmingly given. In both, a note of apppreciation to teachers, parents, school board and friends was expressed. The high school honor society awards, junior high and high school attendance awards and the junior high scholarship awards were presented by Supt. George W. Spenner. In recognition of an organization which is providing the right sort of entertainment for the youth of Guymon and the surrounding community, in behalf of the WCTU of Hitchland, Mrs..

E DAYS OF GRACIEU Three Days of Gracien, a delightful three-act comedy, was presented by the Guymon Seniors on Friday night, April 27th. The plot dealt with a situation such as this: Miss Kate Waring, a stern old maid of forty, is the type that wears a hat that is ten years old, and dresses of the same vintage.
