THE NEW BUILDING Taken during the midst of construction, these pictures may give those who saw only the finished product an idea of a building-in-the-making. The scaffolding and elevator hoist were an integral part of the work all year. Operation on the building was begun in the Spring of 1936 and finished during this last April. The new audi- torium has for its foundation the old gymnasium which once housed league haskethall. wrestling and ping pong. V inns' 92

?Z4' 'WWW NNVWS . 's N Z 4 X I Y 1 fl - L5 ' R time of their lives preparing for that pageant down at the Cirl's School. Have you noticed the dazed looks in the eyes of Hurd, Conrad, Rimbault, and Weber of late? The love bug will bite them if they don't watch out. Have you ever played under the sheet? Skip it anyhow. Cratz and Ziggy have gone on a sit down in History Class. They won't bring candy. Hollis and Mook have been winning some intelligent tests of late. Well, looks are de- ceiving. As soon as dinner is over, l'll be back in a flash with a fiash. Itis a good thing we have a Tennis Team this year. or I don't know where our athletic reputation would be. Of course they lost to Columbia Frosh, but what the devil. It rained the day of the Scars- dale match, and was Kubie disappointed. Can you guess why? What form. what grace,-fcut it out, pleasell. Baumann, Mook, Schwartz, and Bailey are the other mainstays. Who invented College Boards? I almost forgot to tell you about the pageant. I was an usher Thursday and Friday night. Was it hot! It was more fun helping ladies up those rickety bleacher seats. The whole thing was pretty darn good, especially that modern dancing by the girls. What lovely costumes, what grace. what form! llim not kidding this time.J Weber. Gold- smith, and Rimbault were good in the Horace Mann skit. Mullins, head usher, Osenkop, and some of the rest did not see the pageant. Duty called them back stageg I wonder why? l'm just beginning to believe itis a good thing we don't have co-education. Well. so long, dear Diary, until I pass my finals and College Board Examina- tions. SENIOR OPINIONS Favorite college ...................,......................,.....,..,...........
