games rather than lose them all. We were convinced that the intra- mural cup was not in Our linen. Of course we weren't worrying about such a small loss in glory, because Don Lawyer had figured out all sorts of schemes for ridding the world of Hitler. We were bound to become famous through him. Then, too, hedn't the Assembly Award come to us the second semester? We had wrested that from the conspiring and aspiring Juniors and Seniors. ,With all of our success this year misfortune too crept in. Hazel Hsun had to give up her appendix: Helen Reeder spent some time in the hospital under observation: and Ethel Houpt vanished into thin air for several months. Two ,other members left us for good. Blanche Sollenberger moved to Washington Township: Warren Divelbiss found too much spring work on the farm to continue his schooling. Jack Malone rejoined us in the spring--for baseball, but just sitting' in classes gave more pain than the baseball joy and he did. not last long. And so another commencement dawned, bringing us one year closer our goal. We went off to our summer vacations determined to make the third lap of our school careers more valuable to us than even the first two had been.

Hazel and Edna had become Mrs. . On September 9 we held our first class meetinrq, when we reelocted Junior Mackey to the class presidency. To help him we put in Bernard McLucas, as vice president, Mary Jarrett, secretary, Phyllis Rosenberry, as treasurer. and Genifrede Smith and Robert Anderson. athletic managers. To supervise the planning and practicing of the four assembly programs scheduled for us during the year, President Mackey appointed a Home Room Program Committee composed of Susan Rockwell, chairman, Harold Hawbaker, Junior Mackey, Billy Feilor, and Mary Jarrett. Nezr the middle of September our membership was increased from thirty-seven to thirty-eight, when Grace Oakman, formerly of Fannetts burg High School, ,joined us. The boys, for some reason, began to find it hard to keep their minds on their books. Put, just as we Began to get really worried Dolly pulled out for Florida and the toys got to work. By the end of September we had settled down to the regular routine of school life. Our desires were again being voiced in the School Council by Junior Mackey. Goldie Sires, and Ethel Houpt-
