ln the midst of all this work was the steady- undertow of questioning. When are we going to move? This became more and more a question of in- terest and it soon became apparent that actions would settle that question. On ilarch 29, most everyone was surprised for upon arrival at School in the morning there could be seen a steady stream of pupils each carrying, what seemed to him, his share. It all took place so suddenly that questions were almost forgotten. ln several hours the deed was accompli shed, the deed that had been anticipated for a year. all were soon settled and real, live school work was begun. Gym was seldom with an occupan t. . The ball team now started real work and began filling their schedule with different games. They were encouraged by the efforts made by the Eep Committee and the entire school in trying to cheer them. Let us hope that before the season closes they wi ll be able to prove that this team is better than any Hancock team before them. 'his year the High School groups presented a very colorful number at the school's annual en ter- tainmen t, Masque and Bagean t. All anxi ously worked and after much costuming and planning the hi gh school students turned into historical characters who approached the present at the call of the Book mark, through a large history book. From the time of King 'Put to the styles of 1954 hi story was portrayed in living forms. To the Seniors, who knew i t was their last one, the work was very interesting and enjoyable especially the two weeks spent in preparation. After this the Seniors started to plan their play. Dear You is the selected play and after the parts had been arranged, real work began upon it in hope that it would be a success. The whole class was in the cast. Events are coming more rapidly and among them graduati on. The graduation of thirteen Seniors will end this eventful year perfectly for them and the rest of the high school. This year ends the seventh year in the' history of the high school and if results come as well as they have for the next seven years, our students will have just reason for price. Isn't it great to look f01'W91'd to B 151356 graduating class from our own large high school.
