Th MICROPHONE 31 Personals H. H. S s Ten Commandments I. Thou shalt not whisper—talk loud enough for the rest of us to hear as it might be interesting. II. Thou shalt not deface thy books or other school property as it will costeth you money. III. Thou shalt treat thy teachers with re- spect for they art thy elders, if thou doth not abide here too long. IV. Thou shalt not copy thy neighbor’s work for it might be wrong. V. Thou shalt not launch any flying mis- sile such as paper wads or airplanes as you might get caught. VI. Thou shalt not attempt to date your best friend’s steady as she might ac- cept and place you in jeopardy. VII. Thou shalt not try to get a two weeks’ vacation as teachers can sense these attempts and only give you more work. VIII. Thou shalt not persuade thy parents to do try work as their methods are easily recognized by teachers. IX. Thou shalt not run up and down stairs as thou would become so exhausted that thou would be unable to do thy school work, and that would be tragic. X. Thou shalt not write notes as thou might be embarrassed if they should be intercepted.

What seems to be the main attraction in Levant for two 8th Gr. girls? It couldn’t be a certain Bemis family, could it? . . . What happened to Dave K.’s mouse-tache? She must have the upper hand in this set . . . Which popular Sr. gal listens to the “Lone Ranger”? Could it be she has an interest in Texas? . . .

30 The MICROPHONE CHEERLEADERS N. Phillips, M. Doughty, J. Wentworth, D. Dean, M. Johnson. Cheerleading Due to the elimination of the girls’ bas- ketball team this year there was a large number of girls trying out for cheer- leading. The judges were members of the faculty and those chosen were: Muriel John- son, Captain, Natalie Phillips, June Went- worth, Marlene Doughty, and Deanna Dean. Our substitute was Mildred Duplisea. As there were only five cheerleaders in- stead of the usual six, we had to work out new cheers, many of which were successful. Our uniforms consisted of yellow blouses, bine skirts, and blue and gold sweaters. Blue and gold megaphones were also pur- chased. We would like to take this oppor- tunity to thank Mrs. Bemiss for making our skirts. We feel that we had a successful season in spite of our teams many losses because of the spirit and enthusiasm of both the team and the cheerleaders. Spring Athletics At this printing it is not certain that the athletic field will be completed in time to meet the baseball and softball schedules, as the new high school was built on the pre- vious ball field. The games will be played, howrever, if the field is ready for practice as we hope. The schedules are as follows: Baseball Fri. Apr. 24 Newport Tues. Apr. 26 at Hartland Fri. May 1 East Corinth Tues. May 5 at Carmel Fri. May 8 Corinna Tues. May 12 at Newport Fri. May 15 Hartland Tues. May 19 at East Corinth Fri. May 22 Carmel Tues. May 26 at Corinna Softball Wed. Apr. 22 Corinna Wed. Apr. 29 at Hartland Wed. May 6 at Carmel Wed. May 13 at Newport Wed. May 20 East Corinth

 The MICROPHONE No hints here . . . We wonder who L. B. will be thrilling with her escapades after June? . . . From where I sit a certain Frosh girl (P. B.) has tried hard but not landed yet . . . The “crew-cut” fever has been spreading rapidly as of late but those with the curliest hair seem to have been stricken first . . . Will the two Sr. sisters make it a “double” after graduation or will it just be an Anchors Aweigh” solo? . . . We wonder if it will come to blows between two popular boys, one a Jr. and the other a Soph. It’s hard to tell who’s ahead, and “she’ll never tell.” . . . Who has R. H. got her eye on now? Something must be ready to come to a boil, the calm before the storm ... It seems that almost everyone came down with mumps during a recent epidemic. Too bad, Mr. McLaughlin, we know you wanted a vacation! . . . Which dark-haired lass’ theme song is “Bonda, Bonda, Bonda?” Hint—he also has a lease on the Soph, room . . . The Frosh girls really have us guessing. Not so for their popular president and a certain “Sr.” boy, though . . . Who is Dot P.’s secret heart throb—we can’t seem to find out. She keeps it pretty well hidden, but yours truly wonders if those downtown trips every night have any- thing to do with it? . . . Which blonde Jr. girl is very interested in the Coast Guards? Wouldn’t we like to have a peek into her diary’!! . . . What seems to be the great in- terest at Bangor High for a certain Soph, girl? Need a hint? He used to go to Hermon High . . . We hear that a certain Sr. boy is a pretty fair baker. If he would learn to sew, he’d make a pretty good wife for Boudreau (rhyme son) . . . There’s a certain Soph, set who never stays apart for long. Their fights are only excuses! . . . How come no one of the fair sex has latched on to a certain curly-headed Frosh devil—but we understand the light will daw’n soon ... It seems a certain Jr. pair spend a great amount of time watching TV. Hint—he has a Plymouth . . . Which Jr. girl keeps Bates- ing the hook in hopes to catch a successful Levant dairyman? ... It is rumored that detention will be re-established w’hen we move into the new high school. Will it turn out to be an extra study period for every- one, or can we accustom ourselves to the new threat? .. . Which Sr. redhead seems to pre- fer red bicycles and light green Pontiacs? We wonder, hm-m-m? All good things Must come to an end, So good-by for now— Your nosy friend, “Key Hole Spy” H. H. S. Celebrities Jerry Lewis Richard Muhen Mr. Tap Toe ..........
