Atomic Assembly Rumors are flying that we are living in the Atomic Age. So, was it not fitting that we begin our school year with an assembly related to atoms and atom bombs We thought so, and did. The program, based on John Hersey’s accounts of the elTects of the atom bomb on Hiroshima as described in an August edition of the New Yorker, was directed by Miss Wilson. The program follows: Introduction Anne Marie Morton Reverend Tanimoto Albert Goodrich Mrs. Nakamura Constance Whitney Song — He ' s Going to Marry Yum Yum” From The Mikado Julia D’Amico, Vivian Helander, Frances D’Amico Dr. Fujii Doris Dionne November Assembly Our Armi.stice Day Assembly, under the direction of Miss Tierney, was held on Friday, November S. Although it was a short program, it was an interesting and inspiring one. The program, with Robert Priest as Master of Ceremonies, opened with the salute to the flag by the Sophomore class president, Robert Ojalehto. This was followed by a chorus of America the Beautiful” by the student body. Armistice,” the opening poem of the program, was recited by Nancy Stalker and this was followed by a beautiful vocal solo, There’s A Long, Long, Trail” by Joan Bumpus. The singers were accom- panied on the piano by Jean Stein. A poem Christ of the Andes,” recited by Norma O’Neil preceded the National Anthem, which was sung at the close of the program by the entire group In a short speech at the end of the program, Mr. White informed us that the assembly had been pre- pared on very short notice. Our compliments to tho.se who prepared it and to those who took part, Senior Social Father Kleinsurge Alfons Krysieniel Song — Mr. Chic-o-ric-oran” — By the Kyoski Sisters Kepi and Keli, the belles of Tokyo.

On Friday, September 20, the seniors held the first social of the year. As a precaution against fire, the decorations were limited to covers for the lights. These, in a soft shade of green with white, added a festive touch to the hall. Music was furnished by Salamone’s Orchestra, and during intermission refreshments were served in the Gymnasium. The dance committee under the supervision of Miss Wilson included George Luker, William Bain, Fred Wasiluk, Albert Goodrich, William Gruber, Vincent Russo, Ardelle Kane, Charlotte Lehto, Bar- bara Grigas, Doris Dionne, and Helen Arcisz.
