I Spring Brings Prom and Commencement as School Year Ends nets till the Ideal Lady Tea, when the Sunshine girls revealed themselves to the ladies who have been receiving anonymous gifts from them all year. Spring was here at last, bringing Prom-time. The juniors worked long and hard to choose just the right decorations, music, refreshments, and mood. They succeeded in high style, and the Prom was added to the list of things to remem¬ ber in 1952. The musical strains from the May Festival soon replaced the Prom tunes on everyone’s lips, and then it was time for the seniors to don their traditional gray robes, and they dis¬ appeared from the MHS halls to the strains of “Auf Wieder- sehen.” Then it was time for semester exams, Baccalaureate and, finally, Commencement. The last judgment day came immediately, and report cards — and then at last! Vacation’s here again! Goodbye, all. See you next fall!

Wayne Abbott, as junior class president last spring, did the honors as emcee on Underclass Honor Day. Here he presents Mr. Kurtz, who will announce an award. Page Nineteen BOTTOM: Oh, the prom! The social event of the year, and the first of a joyous series of senior activi¬ ties. Prom Queen Carolyn Godsey and her court made a beautiful memory for everyone. You’d think Louise Schnaiter and Bill Vanda- grifft had just received their diplomas, but it was really a musical “M” awarded at the Honor Day exercises last spring.

Full Schedule of Events Brightens Winter Routine Back from vacation, students put on their study caps and began to fret about semester exams. With the new semester under way, the biology classes showed off their first semes¬ ter’s labors in a night showing for the public. The freshmen celebrated the new semester with a mixer for the entire class. The month of February is always dreary, but Valentine’s Day came to bring hearts and flowers to the girls. Sectional time inevitably rolls around, and we journeyed to Blooming¬ ton, only to lose to Ellettsville in the finale. March brought College Day and representatives to give guidance to prospective college students. As the month pro¬ gressed so did several basketball teams, too, right up to the exciting finish. March saw both the Future Farmers and the Hi-Y making whoopee. The seniors were, too, at class play rehearsals, as they trudged on to solve the mysteries of “Drums of Death.” Easter vacation came and went in all too great a hurry, and the girls hardly got a chance to show off their new bon- LEFT: The biology open house turned out to be a huge success, and parents discovered that their children were learning things that they had never heard of. TOP: Crack reporter, Don Whaley, yells the lat¬ est news hot off the tape as his assistant, sizzling Maurine Sweet, takes tips on the phone at the speech class convocation. BOTTOM: “Do-si-do” and “’round we go”— following the biology open house the freshmen had a mixer in the girls’ gym with an all-freshmen string band beating out the rhythm for the Virginia Reel.
