14 Elfiofn - 'iilllnfn Oh, those happy days as freshmen! Oh, those happy, childhood days wh-:n we were freshmen. Here they are. folks. the departing seniors, who at the time these pic- tures were taken, were just embark- ing in all their ignorance and bliss upon the turbulent sea of high school days. Do you recognize any of them? There are quite a few whose coun- tenances justify recognition or un- controllable laughter. However, we won't discriminate betw-een the two sentiments which their blooming young' faces arouse. In the top picture there is Don Shane and Artie O'Donnell, stand- ing next to Josephine Peterson in the front row. Oh, to be a child once more. See Betty Wilson grinning coquett- tishly around the side of Don Shane's right ear? Notice the wind-blown bob and compare it with Betty's present tresses. Then take a squint at Shorty lX'!'cKellar and Red Riley of future bfsketball and gridiron fame. Aren't they sweet? And now to take a look at the lower picture. That little tow-headed fellow in knickers and a polo shirt is none other than Burton Andrus. Time changeth all! There's Johnnie Grentner, Bob- bie Freeman, and Henry Barker in the middle of the front row. Little did they realize when this picture was being' tak-en that they would be competing for a Summerfield scholaii-1 ship within the next four years. Five rows back on the left end of the row is a demure maid with hofn- rimmed glasses. Cute, isn't she? She answered even then to the name of Margaret Collins. Oh! There's Barbara Humphrey second from the right end in the fifth row. Don't try to control your- self. You won't be able to. t Embarking in ignorance and bliss --

ri eil twiki... 13 1 1 gf.. P Barbour Browne Hamilton Nearguard Oliver in this bird's-eye view, at least. There should be a sign, Don't tease the animals hung on him. He's harmless enough when he's in a good humor, but the management is not responsible to patrons, so don't stir him up. Look, out Don, the goblins'll get you. ROBERT SHOFFNER was the northeast by th-e southwest corner in another version of the age-old tri- angle. He got to town. though, in spite of muddy roads. Give the little b-fy a gr-eat big hand, folks. Come on. Bob, tak your bow. CARL SMYTHE-or Smith. as he sometimes writes when in al forgetful mood--threw his hip out of joint fwatch out th-erei cheerleading. was well cast when plaecd in the role of Chester, the pest , in the senior play. EDNA JANE SMITH has 'fed hair. iWith a name like Smith you ne-ed some distinctionj She's not a pigskin kicker, however. Jane says in the first place and more or less often- er than anyone else in the American history class. GLAUYS SMITH has a cute smile. Wonder if she and all the other Smiths in the world are any relation. You wonder awhile. I'm tired. GECNEVIEVE SMITH-another one -was a whiz on the basketball court until she moved away. Kinda' left the Lillies in a hole. RICHARD SNYDER is the beautv of the senior class. Richard played football and swiped ice-cream as extra-curricular activities. Several people would like to catch him at the latter sport some time. BEVERLY STEADIVDALN must have joined the Book-of-the-Month club. Or rather, the girl of the month association. He falls in love with a different person each month. Stand in line, girls, and don't push. Oh, thete fickle men! LEE STEVENS looks as if he had lost his last friend. Did your dog run away? Or maybe the cat ate your canary. Cheer up, Lee, some of us still love you. EVELYN STIERS is not-ed for her long wind-ed. American history floor talks. She used to talk far, far into the night-without saying a whole lot, either She wears oangs, too. whenever she has time to curl them. MARY SULLIVAN is a whiz on the basketball court-when she isn't too weak from laughing to stand up. Mary is one of the best-natured girls in school. She can sing, too. RICHARD SWENSSON'S one am- bition ls to be an Admiral in the United States Navy. Aye, aye, sir. His floor talks in American history are also noteworthy. He once said. The man traded a gold mine for a bottle of whisky that killed nine men in three hours and disabled another who smelled the cork. JAMES TAYLOR looks very effem- inat-e in this picture. He really isn't so bad. however. James seems fated to have been a big noise. He was a cheerleader during the athletic season and a toastmaster in the senior play. FLOYD WILEY is a tough guy. Yea Bo! He played the part of a truckman in the aforementioned senior production. He uraws plenty good pictures, too. BETTY WILSON says, How'm I doin'? Not bad, Betty. She can braid her hair around her head now. have you noticed? So long, Betty, see you at FYower's. MARGARET YORK never says much about herself, but she probably manages to get along without any help. Doesn't she have exotic eye- brows? Look at that arch! LILLIE' ZIEGLER used to worry for fear people would think she was related to Edward Ziegler, '33. She was the manicurst in the senior play. CLYDE BARBOUR. ls quite a man about town. He's never seen without at least one girl tearing along after him. MIIDRED BROWNE has some snazzy curls, hasn't she? Mildred is a mighty nice person, having a verv charming personality. IIZZTE BELLE NEARGUARD toes in for basketball in a big way. Some- times she could fairly put them in. JUANITA OLIVER has an awfully infectious smile. Hope she doesn't in- fect peop'e with the measles or anv- thinfz. Please don't hit me. Juanita. I'm not responsible.

Haute - mum 15 UNDERCL SS Classes! Classes! Day In and Day Out. But at Times They Aren't as Bad as They Might Be. Gaze upon this representative 'D p of the scholars C?l going to the un - tion City Junior-Senior High School. In practically every ,roo of he building are other groups i ' r to this one.

A certain m 'er f the senior class with an e ee lngly dry sense of humor an- s ered, Moving There's nothing like coincidences! Th fth hour dramatics class was reading a pIa.y, Gettysburg, and was becoming quite enthralled with the booming cannons and the stirr- ing account of the Civil War' days, when there came to interrupt their thoughts a loud blast which might ave done credit to the battle of Gettysburg. But alas, 'twas only C. W. A. workers blasting the north wall of the gym. Mr. Edmond Dailey gave tests now and then. There was no special rea- son for them. except. perhaps, to prevent his young history students from dying from boredom. He learn- ed a. lot of things he hadn't been told by his college professors. Such as-a serf is water near the shore: a siege is a narrow body of land or waterg the ruler of the English Com- monwealth was Hitler. and the leader of the Protestant Revolt was Pope. The Easter style rules-oh, no! The journalism style rules were the bane of many a cub reporters existence. Do you use a comma be- foer the and in a series? Is senior capitalized? fEdltor's Note: Senior should be capitalized and the other classes left out altogether! Many a budding journalist pondered over the correct Iix Representative group of scholars? -- way to write a 6-pound fish and the proper punctuation of quotations cauted a superfluous growth of grey- hair on the head of harrassed edi- tors. Professor H. R. Callahan may not have been very original when he said. I'll now illustrate what I have in mind. as he erased the black- board. According to reports and cer- tain evidence displayed, the implied state of mind was sad, but true. However, I-I. R. was run a close second by some of the young scient- ists in his care. For instance, one immature intellectual inferred that people having eyes capable of seeing infra-red rays had had a little too much to drink first. Another master mind answered, 'nYes, when the ice melted, in answer to the query whether it were possible to get off a prrfectly frictionless pond of ice. Through approximate computation, Mr. Carrol Ward may have had the strongest and funniest answers given to his queries. He was probably quoted in the chatter column of the Blue Jay the most times. This genial maestro nearly threatened to use force when explaining some phrase of bookkeeping to an earnest listener. 'Tm afraid we're going to have to blast to get it through, he wearily declared. 'Tm 'getting tired of being the goat all of the time. Miss Ethel Hinds complained after she had broken into print via the chatter ceulmn five times in one issue of the Blue Jay. Be that as it may, she did accuse a masculine member of the second hour dramatics class of preferring his lipstick second hand. In addition, when asked if hell were capitalized. sh-e answered ve- hemently, I-Iell? No! Between laughs, more or less- probably l-ess-studying was done and a. few things learned. It's a great life if you don't weaken. -T-T-If FT-T-T-T--TT-T17-T-T?-T '-T-T-Tire?-'T-TFT JUNIORS , i.
