ACTIVITIES Banquet The Past Noble Grands invited the basketball teams, cheer leaders, managers, and coaches to a banquet. They furnished us with a tasty ,meal which consisted of chicken pie, mashed potato, with all the trimmings, and frosted sugar cake for dessert. The four tables were well decorated. Each was covered with a white table cloth, and had a candle in the center with small flags at each side of the candle. I believe Girls' Chorus Through the direction and everlasting patience of Mrs. Ruth Wing, the Girls, Chorus has made a hit for the year 1952-53. They have taken part in several school aHairs, one of which was the Variety Show. They sang in the Baptist Church twice, once at Christmas and once at Easter. The girls looked very good in their new Easter Carnival The long planned for and exciting day of the Carnival finally came. All morning at school everyone was very busy, most of us attending classes and studing as usu- al. But a few must finish the booths and collect the food that wasn't to be ready until that forenoon. After noon, each committee chairman was given change and prizes to open his booth, and the fun began. Many of us patronized the food booth where fudge, ice cream, hot dogs and drinks were on sale, as well as cakes and pies. One of the most popular spots was the fish pond where many of the younger children spent most of their time. If we were too old to fish, we could have our fortune told, throw 26 special mention should be of the place favors. They represented a basketball poised for a perfect shot over the basket with its crocheted net. The rim of the bas- ket was fine wire and the ball itself was made of wood, which had been stained brown. Very impressive indeed! All of us who attended the banquet wish to thank each and every Past Noble Grand who made this banquet a success for us. Robert Taylor '53 outfits. Too, Mrs. Wing presented each girl with a corsage of yellow daffodils. The Chorus will take part in the annual Spring Festival, which the entire school presents. They have, also, been requested to sing two selections at the County Teachers, Convention in Wilton. baseballs, or toss rings. For a dime we could see movies over in the school house. Later in the afternoon there was great demand for people to clean up the hall and to set up the chairs for the play to be pre- sented in the evening. Although Carnival continues through the evening, the most of the noise and ex- citement is over when the school children leave at bus time in the afternoon. Proceeds go to the Student Council fund to help meet expenses of our school during the year. We always hope for large profits, because that means we can continue with our schedule for another year. Our activi- ties wonit have to be stopped because of lack of funds.

On March 17, the High School put on a Variety Show under the supervision of Mrs. Wing, with the following students taking part. jean Pushard and Louise Phil- brick did a tap dance. Jean Morrison gave a humorous reading. Doris Meldrum sang Another venture We all take part in is the booth at Fair. The Whole school works to help make it a success, although it is the Seniors' responsibility to see that commit- tees are drawn up and that things are done. Seniors are the ones who stay overnight on the fairgrounds to be sure everything is all right, and to get an early start the next morning. And what is very important to every Senior is that the profit made from ACTIVITIES Variety Show It Is No Secretf' Gil Thompson played two piano solos. The Chorus sang selec- tions at the beginning and again at the end. Announcer for the program was Rudol- ph Dyer, Jr. Proceeds were donated to the Heart Fund of America. Booth At Fair the booth goes to help pay for his Wash- ington trip. Each individual, then, as he works up through the classes helps the current seniors, but he, in turn, will be- nefit from the efforts of others when he reaches his last year. This serves two purposes: It spreads the work over a larger number of people, but most of all, it unites us into one working unit right at the start of a new school year. 27
