B LLETI It is with sad hearts that the roustabouts fold up the last remnants of the circus tents. As the wagons move slowly away, the star performers look back sadly at the site which represents three of the best years of their lives. However, the troupers discovered several precious items which they were unable to take except in memory, and these they leave to the performances of '52 and '58. WE LEAVE . . . The counsel and advice of the manager, Mr. Stark, which might prove helpful to the manager of 1952. Since the barn is not available to the forthcom- ing seasons because of its recent removal, we would like to leave a last word of reverence . . . Holy Smoke! The driver training car with its warn clutch and stripped gears to the future hot rod fans of Kenmore. A contract for Johnson and Johnson, the well known medical supply corporation, for the next football season. A year,s supply of Kleenex tissues and Ponds Lips Cwhich stay on and on and onl for the cor- ridor casanovas! Those delightful CPD odors which have served as an appetizer to the delicious home-cooked meals of Kenmore High School. Last, but certainly not least, and with regret, our teachers who have capably guided us. S K A M P 21 D 5 'Q 1 3? 1 'RN fgfgf-??f'I'Ii'I- ' - .-,-.-.' I .....4.A . fl AA' Oo gl ': F . uv QB, Oo

PAT Once we were the untouchables-the low caste south-morons, lowest of creatures as viewed by the select upperclassmen. Gone was our sacred position of yesteryear. Our new lot in the Senior High School was comparable to the rank of protozoan in the animal kingdom. Characteristic of sophomores, we displayed the usual abominable traits such as dumbness, ignorance, and general obnoxiousness. Our lingo was even obsolete, for we were still associated with child- ish expressions such as freeze,' when there were priceless gems in circulation such as Kilroy was here and Drop dead. But somehow we survived . . . WVe managed to put on a Sophomore Show, which feat had not been attempted previously for quite a number of years. VVe also chose leaders to further our grievances in the Student Council. Our ringleaders were Allison Matthews, Joan Schroeder, Ron Tracey, and Chuck Mackett. We also chose a ringmaster-Mike, the Major , Stark. Some of us went out for sports, many others became interested in extra-curr . . ., well, outside-of-school activi- ties. We attended the football games and got a big kick out of new and diH'erent school affairs. Our prestige somewhat wavered after bucking the January exams. We settled down to work, passed, and looked enthusiastically forward to elevation in all respects of school life. We are the Juniors, or spokes No longer are we detestable children, but adults. Yes, even connoisseurs Cof studyhall diction- aries and cafeteria spoonsj. We began to vary our activities and, soon we had infiltrated all walks of school life. Ringleaders for this year were again Allison Matthews, Joan Schroeder, Ron Tracey, and a newcomer, Bob Martindale. We managed to summon a wealth of talent together as we put on the Junior Show-and it went over big Canyway it was a long show.J We collaborated with the sophomores to produce a semi-formal dance which was actually a combination of the Junior Prom and Sophomore Hop. Many of us participated in athletics with some making varsity squads. We accepted our social position with dignity and at the termination of the junior year looked ahead with enthusiasm to September, 1950. 22
