WHO? On whom can all the teachers for attendance rely? And who always have their lessons because they study and try? Who know the Constitution from beginning to the end? How the laws are enacted, and what it means to amend? Who have read almost all of Romeo and Iuliet, For what e'er they study in English, they never forget. And as for Conservation, they know that from A to Z. All the animals and minerals on the land and in the sea. Who are perfect, too, in typing-Always get to class on time: Sure everyone must know them, They're the Class of '49, Laurel Draves -'El Page Twenty-three 13+

Shall We Ever Forget ??? September: Seniors at last. Oh, are WE going to make this a year to remem- ber! Class officers and sponsors were elected, Oracle sales were begun, graduation announcements and personal name cards were ordered. October: Seniors' pictures taken. How much patience Mr. Gatschene has! Two of our own, Delores Hossman and Iane Berlin, were considered most photogenic! We chartered a bus for Cleveland to see the Cleveland Browns defeat the N. Y. Yankees. Such clever majorettes-What a wonderful day- wonderful meal-and Oh! What a trip home! November: Election day. The bond issue for the new school passed 4 to l! I That's real co-operation, isn't it? Sewing circles are fun, aren't they? We began making sewing kits for our senior mother's Christmas presents at Ianice's home. Those cookies that Janice baked were not only good, but quite novel. Our sewing was continued at Iane's home a few evenings later. This, too, was a mem- orable evening. December: Our new score board arrived. We have waited a long time, but it was worth it. We had a Christmas party for our parents. Each one of us was most proud to say, This is my mom: here is my dad! January: Time is pushing us. We were measured for our graduation caps and gowns. They will be pretty: maroon for the boys, white for the girls, and a gold tassel for each. February: Mrs. Sebastian held a party for us at her home. Say, she's not only a career gal: she can also cook. March: Class basketball games were held in the gym at noon. The senior girls bowed to the juniors, but the senior boys won their game in a tight match. That was an interesting assembly on ceramics-Polomene Potters. We should have more of that kind. April: Two things popped up on the ninth of the month. The Glee Club and the band went to Kent for a rating. The seniors had tickets for the opera Othello in Cleveland that night. What a busy and exciting day! May: Our senior play- Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. How well we remember the practices and getting into our director's hair by ad- libbing. What a time we had! And prom. Probably this is the last get together for all of us. It surely gives one kind of nostalgic feeling. Baccalaureate on the last Sunday night of our high school life! Are those butterflies caused by nervousness or excitement? With the Glee Club we sang our favorite songs The Holy City and Bless This House. Shall we ever hear those melodies again without thinking of this occasion? Iune: This is IT! Graduation. A big day for all of us. And the teachers too! Diplomas, here we come!! +R!
