We pitched in full force. And began learning the work Of our newspaper course. We were led by K. Trautewig, Not the regular teacher. But together with her We learned each flash and feature. We read in our text books. Then we had to go In learning to write For this newspaper show. We wrote and we rewrote. And with scissors and glue. We finally produced The first “Herald” for you. With our number so small We all worked like mad. To give to the school The six issues we had. We sponsored a contest; Had a lost and found” sale. And with thirty-two schools We exchanged papers by mail. Along about March, With our last big rendition. We started to work On our Senior Edition. We sold our subscriptions On two lighting teams. With the P-thirty-cights And the bomber ninctccns. We had pictures taken Of each club and class. And on our edition We worked hard and fast. And now that we've finished. We’re proud of the look. Of this unique and unusual And different yearbook. Climaxing the year. Four girls from our roll Were elected as members Of famed Quill and Scroll. So we’re proud of our record.

3n Jfflemortam C(l)N A MIDDICK came to teach in I,arainic High School in 1910. Since then Miss Middick has been typically representative of I-aramic High. She was senior advisor in 1936, 1938, 1940. 1941, and in 1942. Each year was a record of her success and of the admiration of the thousands who have l asscd through the school’s portals. Miss Biddick was especially adored by students in her class room. Her manner was personal, quiet, and unassuming. A definite impartialism. and a greeting smile prevailed unfailing in the atmosphere of her serviceful life. From her room on third lloor, many bits of her wisdom and personality formed fixed jxarts in the minds of her students. Her | assing was synonymous to her everyday life. Miss Middick left us quietly in her regular, peaceful manner. Her absence has been keenly felt. In the rest of our lives, her principles and ideals should l)e an example for higher living, broader minds, and pleasing personalities. kdxa mnnit'K UNIVERSITY or WYOMING. H.A.

Although Chuck was able to begin the year with his classmates, illness caused him to drop school early in Octolicr. Not only was he active in school affairs, repre- senting his class on the student council from the time he entered the seventh grade, and maintaining a high scholastic record: but he was outstanding in sports, lettering in footl all. basketball, and track. To all who knew Chuck, his jtersonality emliodied a rare combination of cajxibility, quietness, and friendliness. He was the boy with the winning smile, the pleasing jiersonality, one who always had time to stop and say Hello.” He was respected and revered by teachers and students alike, and was a fine inspiration for all who knew him. The entire school will long rememlier the pleasure of Chuck's presence and miss him. 3
