Just a few faithful flatfoots trying to maintain order in a public building, but theirs is a most essential duty. Though the squad is much smaller than it used to be, it is still force- ful. The rules have not been seriously changed since the patrol's origin. lt is the same procedure every year. The inexperienced Freshmen start up the wrong stairs until they become acquainted with the rules, and the worldly seniors come down the wrong stairs, feeling that they have earned the privilege. Thus, this job is constant and never monotonous. Under the leadership of Mr. Herney, the Trafhc Patrol will continue to carry on their duties, for this is one of the most active clubs of the school.

i re f?.F ?521r tands for Record Since we have always been a studious group, we find it not too unpleasant a task on this, our final night to open history books to look over a list of our memories. ANCIENT HISTORY Only ten of the graduating class found it necessary to get a head start on their education. Wild Bill Carlson and Rodney Sellen were devotedly playing house with their classmates, Joan Beaudry, Annabelle Reed and Marie Slade. Garth Andrews, Charlie Schenck and Roger Harris were doing their homework-improving their coloring and drawing lessons. Meanwhile Ken Cox and Ruth Foster were diligently building an ideal town in the sandbox. In retrospect of our childish endeav- ors, it seems that we became most proficient in the difficult art of puffing up one,s cheeks and poking the air out of them. In the first grade we were joined by Thomas Dannan, who was a bad actor even then. and the mischievous Thomas Twentyman. From James Street came Robert Ellsworth and Helen Lawrence. We were also favored by the arrival of handy-man, Donald Clark, Orrin Gallup and Ruth Miller. During our second year we welcomed to our growing ranks Virginia Springer, the singer and pianist. Fourth grade found two little cherubs, Paul Whiteman and Marguerite Gower, winging their wav into our midst. Nothing more eventful happened until our seventh year when Barbara Stoker, Ellen Forbes and Emmett Gillette decided to come in and see what city life was like. Then, in the eighth grade Martha Hoy, Frank Blanden and Richard Langdon entered our fold with Miss Fuller as our Good Shepherd. Apparently these first 8 years were not unusual, but were punctuated by the accepted quota of broken bones and black eyes. MEDIEVAL HISTORY In our Freshman year McLean spared us John Hilsinger while West Homer gave Margaret Caughey, and Cold Brook gave us mathematical genius, Thomas Bean. Wle were also joined in the first step of our four year struggle by Alberta Marvin and Hazel Fisk. We felt ourselves quite capable, so with Mr. Price's help, we not only put on a successful dance entitled the fluke Box but also set a precedent by being the first Freshman class to win the Assembly Award with our version of a jury trial. In the dawn of our Sophomore year Virgil donated Lois and VVillis Newman. We struggled through half of the year, but were rejuvenated by the entrance of that dynamic Character Arthur fWho, me?J MacNeill. During this momentous year we aroused the ill feeling of our school mates by again copping the Assembly Award with our Fashion Show and the Burglar. In our Junior year William fTonyJ Mott wandered into our class. This was the only eventful happening of the year outside of our financial and social success, the Junior Prom. Barbara Stoker as Chairman with Helen Lawrence as her Assistant, did a swell job of decorating. The decorations were to represent a dream garden effect. MODERN HISTORY Eleanor Button and Jean Marble wangled their way into our Inner Sanctum. Richer in experi- ence and supposedly fuller of knowledge, we launched on our last year of endeavor. The Crystal Ball triumphed by financial engineering with Lois Newman as Chairman. The auditorium was decorated in a festive manner and under the balcony was located our version of an ideal home at Christmas, complete with easy chairs, fire place, stockings and a Santa Claus fRuth Fosterj. Again to our worthy senior class the kindly faculty gave the Assembly Award for our version of a graduation. We modestly mention the fact that it was a good program. The Town witnessed our fling at the fine art of acting in volume and with appreciation in uYou Can't Take It With You. Wle now extend our appreciation to the Senior Mothers for their work in planning the Senior Banquet and for providing us a fine evening of entertainment. Mr. Wlolner also both surprised and pleased us by granting us a whole day's vacation for the Senior Day Celebration. In passing we wish to express our regret that those who have gone to the service: Frank Blan- den, Herbert Huntley, Arthur Monty, Robert Porter, Morris Redfield, John Simmons, Stanton Wixson could not share these good times with us. Our school days have kept us busy building friendships and storing memories that we will not soon forget. RUTH FOSTER THOMAS DANNAN 30
