X eiAure Jdourd f i t omeu or L ddide a A tk Friday is the magical day to which we look for¬ ward because it signifies the end of a week of hard work and the beginning of week-end activities. After supporting our team at a game, we dash to a stag dance at school or the Flaming Dog to get a booth. There we discuss the week ' s events, the game, or get a bite to eat. Saturday finds many ambitious students working at part time jobs, while others spend time shopping for the latest fads. For some, Saturday night is the night that is spent with a favorite beau. Others curl up with a good book, listen to records, or watch a late Saturday night movie on T.V. Parties offer relaxation and fun as we celebrate a friend ' s birthday or a coming holiday over the week-end. Too soon Monday arrives, and we conscien¬ tiously count the minutes until the next week-end. Reliving —pre-school days are 10 contestants, cycling for the Little 500“ crown in the girls ' tricycle division. Waiting anxious¬ ly for the starting signal are Judi Jelusich, Karen Philipps, Eileen Reinke, Diane Novosel, Mary Ballarino, Judy Chelle, Caryl Sofiak, Barbara Vorkapich, Pat Apolzan and Carol Mattingly. -S- v%, The excitement and heartbreak of a game are portrayed in the faces of Barbara Kurowski and Caryl Sofiak at the high points of the Lew Wallace vs. Hobart basketball game. 10

Big and little sisters kicked off their shoes and joined the fun at the Sock Hop during Freshman Week. Wallace students who participate in extra-curricular activities realize the importance of maintaining good grades. Sitting on the stairs in front of school, sophomore Don Sys thoughtfully examines his report card. Our red letter days are memories which we cherish and mount one by one in our memory album until it is filled with a record of our special events. Certain to be pictured are the busy activities of Home¬ coming Week, the election of class officers, freshman girls searching eagerly for their big sisters , and the fashion- plate look of the student body on Picture Day. The solemn dignity of the Student Council Inaugura¬ tion, the beauty and inspiration of the Vesper service, and the merry atmosphere of the Girls ' Club Birthday Potluck add to the memories we treasure. The tense excitement of the sectionals, the pleading cries of the students during the Polio Drive, and the dis¬ tribution of the Quill and Blade are memories which have an important place in our lives, but a special corner is reserved for the most shining of hours, the Junior-Senior Prom, and the most outstanding red letter day, Graduation Day. An astonished queen and an overjoyed court display various emotions as Cecilia Arras is crowned our 1958 Homecoming Queen.
