3 Sridratinn Seniors — we who, on the eve of Commencement, are about to leave the portals of this school, in all prob- ability never to return, and to travel our respective ways in life, appreciate the pleasant associations of which this Senior magazine is a symbol. Our paths will be many and varied, yet, no matter where they lead us, the train- ing we have received in these past four years will ever be an able guide to us, and will remain the solid foun- dation upon which our entire future lives may well be built. In high school we have worked and played together, and have formed friendships that will last forever ; dur- ing one of the finest and most import- ant periods of our lives we have spent much of our time working in and for the school. It is only fitting that we have some tangible remembrance of our happy days here, one that will serve as an ever-present reminder of the many hours passed in pleas- ant labor with friends and teachers. The Screech Owl Year Book is the perfect medium for this, so to you, classmates, we dedicate this Senior Number of the Screech Owl. May it serve its purpose well! P. Pv. W. 2

ACTIVITIES JUNIOR PROM The Junior Prom is one of the school activities to which everyone looks forward. As usual they were not disappointed in the outcome of the one held June 2, 1933, in the audi- torium. The hall was decorated most attractively in rainbow shades of paper and gold stars. At the windows hung dainty colored curtains; on the window-sills sat jars of paper sweet peas. The girls looked charming in their dainty organdy frocks. The boys were most gallant with their bouton- niers of sweet peas ; and Miss Cassone, the class advisor, appeared very stun- ning in a rust colored dress. The ma- trons were Mrs. James King, Miss Ethel Butterworth, Miss Anne Pasa- karnis, Mrs. James Malcolm, and Mrs. Edward McPherson. Music was fur- nished by Sheridan’s orchestra. In the grand march favors of telephone and address books were given to the guests. Punch and cookies were served in the gymnasium. Congratulations to Miss Cassone and the Junior Class!
