M. H. S. GEM Wal! WE, the Senior Class of 1942 of McComb know that our High School days are almost ended. Before we depart, we wish to make this our last will and testa- ment. We leave to our successors these qualities and quantities which they now need worse than we do. To the entire school we leave the use of the new electric score-board for which we so generously donated, constructed by the ingenuity of Mr. McVey. To the Juniors, we leave our most perfect manners, brilliant thoughts, and orderly fashion so they too can have a dignified rank. To the Sophomores, we will our good discipline so they can behave and stay out of trouble as we have. To the Freshmen, we bequeath our sense of direction and unreached goals to guide them through good old M. H. S. We leave to our teachers the following: To Mr. Parrett, we leave our foolishness and uncommon sense, hoping he keeps on correcting erring students. To Mr. Neiderhiser, we leave our humorous and interesting stories so he can fill the first period with something other than Civics and International Relations. To Miss Ruehle, we give our precious time spent in her classes. To Miss Tingle, we will all our old test papers, magazines, and card- board boxes so she can save them for defense. To Mr. King, we will all our de- flated footballs and basketballs for his future chiampion teams to practice with. To Mr. Henderson, we leave our best wishes that his Ag. boys become top farmers. To Mr. McVey, we present our ability to keep quiet in the assembly. To Miss Lind- enman, we leave all our knowledge about Shakespeare, so she can definitely prove whether or not he was the true author of his works. To Miss Moyer, we bequeath all our old song books and music sheets. To Mr. Pees, we leave our broken toys, worn out motors, clever ideas and inventions so he can have something to tinker with. 1. Sam Shoop Wills his army of girl friends to Bernard Little, providing Ber- nard promises to train them into army nurses. 2. Dorothy Dale McQuistion bequeaths her fine penmanship to Ned Bennett. Ned wants his girl friends to be able to read his writing. 3. Mary Gazarek wills her ability to get along with all the boys to Ruth Ann Graf if she promises to stop fighting them. 4. Earl Peneton leaves his apple judging 'ability to Paul Collingwood hoping for .another state winner. 5. Charles Worthman gives his power of oratory to Beverly Nusbaum. She wants to tell the world what she knows about love. 6. Bob Shafer presents his rank of captain of the basketball team to Abbie Johnston hoping he becomes next year's star. 7. Margaret Miller wills her long hair to Norman Rozelle. Norman must promise never to cut it. 8. Norma Freed gives her engagement ring to Rosemary Kersh providing she '..'LJaJusaJaaaau.wJuer ri wrnvmwvwrwvwrwrvrwvwi Page thirteen

. M. H. S. eau.-,-41eme ARE you wondering what has been happening to the graduates of McComb High of the 'year 1942? The Snooper has been around looking through all news- papers and past histories and has found many items of interest. They are here assembled in the gossip column. Rex Inbody, who specialized in growing hybrid popcorn, is champion this year. His slogan is Pop goes every kernel! He says if any does not happen to pop the user may send it back. Rex promises to autograph every non-popping kernel. Ellen Hanes, who went to Washington job hunting, has been m-arried for the past 10 years Although she vowed she'd never marry, when the right man came along she fell so hard for him she never could recover. They now have six bouncing youngsters, including two pairs of twins. They all have curly black hair and Ellen, with her tender motherly smile, claims that every one of them will be movie stars. Helen Lanker has been Home Economics teacher at Sunnyville for the past five years. She is now past 30 and extremely plump. Because of her fear of being an old maid she has decided to go on a carrot-egg-water diet. Tonite there is the big wrestling-boxing show at Madison Square Gardens. Grappling Tom , the former Dean Haley, will be the main participant. You'l1 re- member him as the little Mr, Nobody who knocked out Joe Louis back in the middle 40's. Before and after the show Jim Haddox and his Swingaroos will per- form. The number in his orchestra has increased from 5 to 15 since his High School days. Demands are so heavy that Jim now has his own private plane for fast transportation. Johnny McCamey has returned from the Navy recently. He came through the war unscratched. His motto is Wine, Women, and Song and a girl in every port. He says he sends a valentine to each one every year. Marjorie 'Cook has been head Waitress at the Waldorf Hotel. She's now getting old and plans to have a little restaurant all her own, something like the East End. Her companion all these years has been June Miller, who still is a night club singer. June sings only the most popular numbers like My Little Pickedilly and Gosn, You're Something. After he graduated, Bob Shafer had a great number of offers from different colleges because of his athletic ability. However, he went to Findlay because it was closest to Joyce and he took up coaching there. He's now the present coach of .suahahaaahcuansuahah 'wrwrwrwrwrwrwvwrwrwf Page fifteen
