Form IV H ERE I sit, collecting my superannuation and recollecting many pleasant memories as I browse through the Spectrum. Ah, yes, those Fabulous Fours! How well I remember: Betty ' s saying Eve changed my name! Anne ' s indignant The name is Wer-bo-we-ski! Carol Lee ' s portrayal of a coloured mammy; Marion J. as her mistress; Don as Francis L. Lee; Lou, his insolent daughter; Pauline ' s excellent reproduction of Abraham Lincoln; Lady Macbeth, as Joanne presented her; Mary as her protective nurse; Sister Eileen Marie ' s and Sister Leonita ' s helping hands at script-writing; Diane ' s, Marion T ' s and Isabelle ' s dainty minuet; Shirley M. as our winsome Juliet; Phil, our class Rep. attempting to ban that extra dollar for a Year Book; Donna ' s appeal, Will you play basketball at noon? ; Lorraine ' s lament Can ' t study with all those kids around; Gil ' s plea Come to your drunken daddy; Cathy, our beauty queen; Isabelle C, our wrestling fan; Evelyn ' s hasty exit at four o ' clock to catch that bus; Shirley with those attendance slips; the Christmas Party at Mrs. Johnston ' s home, where Pearl danced a jig; Marge ' s and Marion M ' s piano selections; Ed ' s amorous gestures toward Jo, while playing How Green You Are; Joan ' s arrival in her ' 37; the sincerity with which we sang For She ' s a Jolly Good Fellow to our gracious hostess Mrs. L. Johnston; our party on Oct. 21st; Carol ' s and Ross ' s singing debut; Ernie ' s Charleston; Marjorie, our daffy dunce; Theresa, Jackie, Helga and Dorothy as the classroom comics; our celebration of Joe ' s and Marion ' s anniversary; the presentation of the wedding gift to Marion N.; Kathy, who always supplied the background music; and Helen ' s philosophic view of life. Unobserved, the Spectrum slides from my lap to the floor. For the time being, at least, I am not an elderly, grey-haired lady, but just Laura, who in 1955 was one of those Fabulous Fours.
