THE PANTHER T951 WILL The time has now come for the senior class of nineteen hundred and fifty- one to bequeath their prosperity and behavior to the students and faculty of Harrington High School. Myrna Covert wills her place as president of the senior class to some lucky lor maybe unluckyl person in the class of 52 . As editor of the annual she wills this place of honor to Darlene Miller in hopes that she will have as much fun being editor as Myrna did. Myrnie wills her ability to get along with all the teachers and still have lots of fun doing it to Gloria, have fun kid! To the rest of the students of H. H. S. she leaves her mischievious spirit in hopes that it will help keep things lively when she's not around, but we fear this is one thing that Myrnie will have a hard time giving away. Glen Morrison wills to Jim Larsh, his ability to stay out of trouble, take it easy Jim! To Bengie, Glenn's ability to take seven subjects. To Darlene and Gregory his forsight and perserverence in bookkeeping, and to Mr. Pommer, Glenn's fond memories of Physics Class. Also to Tommy Talkington absolutely nothing, he iust wanted to give him some publicity. Shirley Gray leaves her place in the office first period to anyone who gets it, in hopes that they get their office work satisfactorily done. She bequeaths her un-naturally curly hair to Elois H. To Peggy C, her seat in the Senior row, so Peggy won't have to walk clear across the room to stand by the radiator. Oh, yes, Shirley wishes to leave her feed bag size purse, a sure sign of a senior girl, to Gloria Werner. Wade Vick wills his curly hair to Norman Severson, so Norman will be able to play football and his ability to get the car to Bobbie Birge, so Bobbie will have more dates with Kay. Wade wishes to give his ability to get to school on time to Tom. Don't get excited Tom! Karlene Knapp wishes to leave her ability to get along with Mr. Pommer to Joyce Kindred. Why Joyce? Karlene wills to Gloria, whom she thinks is capable, her student body social chairman office and her tennis position to Harriet Covert. Her trombone to anyone that wants to take band. And to Patty Kerr, Karlene's good studying habits. Carroll McCormick said that he didn't have much to will but he would like to give Bob Jannot his long tresses. And his hairless chin he wishes to leave with Nils. Don't you believe it Nils. Carroll's last but not least ability, he wishes to leave to Janet An MacDonald and that is his beautiful baritone voice. Take good care of it, Janet An. Frances Zundel wills her alto horn to the next alto player, she hopes that he will know how to play on the after beats. Frances's giggles go to Janet McCormick. Do you think she's capable to hold on to them? To Janet MacDon- ald her spot on the tennis squad and to Darlene Miller, Frances bequeaths her typing grades. She leaves her ability to get into arguments and quarrels to Joy Wilson. Please don't make use of it. Last, but by no means least she wills her baton and whistle to the next H. H. S. maiorette. May she enjoy it as much as Frances did.
