1 DAYTON BOUND As the early sun slowly showed face over a new day of September 28, 1947, we can visualize each Senior regretfully climbing from his nest of warmth. And to face what??? Ahhh, Yes!!! The day has come. As we so sorrowfully stand before the mirror and scrub and comb, we think of our good old days we spent with jefferson--with that precious thought in mind we make our way into New Paris to meet the other unfortunate Senior victims who upon this day are being shot . Have we forgone all these twelve years learning our Hreadinf, ritin' and rithmetic and to become Mamma's big boys and girls now to parade fearfully into our house of exe- cution? Certainly not!! We will take it as it comes. That is the exact prologue to the story of the Senior Class as they left that early September morning to have their pictures shot by Howard Knoll. The boys, being johnny-jump-Ups , were as feathered birds and practically flew, while the girls were more reluctant to have prirnping time and were caught off bound by a little road-side inn called the Flamingo , here they swapped tales over steaming drinks. By the time the girls arrived the boys had been shot , and after the girls went be- hind the firing lines they were ready to scour Dayton, the boys going one way, the girls another. Of course rurnors go, the boys hit the Mayfair. QBut don't you believe itj. Noon found both boys and girls among the pastures of the Purple Cow , there's where we really showed them what fingers were frw- lhm-.'t believe that either---we used our forks., Again we branched through Dayton. The girls and Miss Kemp went shopping while some of the boys were fascinated by the esculators. After shopping, the girls drifted into W.I.N.G. Dayton Broadcasting Station. We were led into the office and introduced and then taken to the station where many ladies, few gentlemen were on the Sunny-Side-Up pro- gram. Lo and behold!! we were made guests and Miss Kemp spoke and announced who we were. After giving a short exhibition of our singing over the air, Miss Kemp surprised us all by telling that Donna, Edith, and Betty could sing in a trio. Three knee-knocking girls gave a version of Sentimental Reasons . Then the thing that made all Jefferson---espec- ially Miss Kemp, blush, and the thing that the Seniors could probably bribe her for is now being printed for all to see. Nothing to be ashamed of, but something to sure get teased about, as she already has been, MISS KEMP GOT KlSSED?!! QOn a radio program, in pub- lic, with everyone watching--isn't that scanda1ous?f With a heart breaking melody, jack Wyman sweetly serenaded her with How Many Tin1es , first from bended knees, then with her on his lap, next with him on hers. Quote Jack Wyinan, I always wanted to kiss a teacher , quote Miss Kemp, from clenched teeth, Will my students love this!! Unquote. Feeling rather baloon-headed from our experience over the air, we made our way to Keith's Theater to see Bing Crosby starring in Welcome Stranger, The boys having drifted into groups, wandered around Dayton, some shopping for re- cords and other articles, some to a movie, and others just loafing. Most of them were home before the girls, something very irregular. 1 The girls after a delightful supper at Maude Miller's pointed lights toward home base thus ending a very pleasant day. Probably the nicest execution we will ever face! Note: We were very satisfied with the results of the pictures and hope the Seniorsof -49' will have the swell time we had. Senior Class of 4481 Z3
