In traveling over the grounds of a great school like M. C. H. S.. we find many historical marks. We are not in the least surprised to find a few aged relics standing around. On November 12, 194S the junior class presented a very humorous play, “The Junior Prom, under the direction of Mrs. June Smith. The play cast included Bobby Jackson. Eva Huffman. Billy Higgins. Sue Bonifield, Everett Blobaum. Ann Hotter. Harry Bolton. Barbara Ragsdale. Mary Lou Hard. Gale Wehrmeyer, Phyllis Wade, and Don Sullivan. All who saw the play enjoyed it very much.

As sophomores, most of us have begun to realize the importance of the two years that lie ahead of us. Our hardest work is still before us. Our first two years have been an introduction. We have formed friendships, entered into school activities, and become integrated into school life. Now the theme has been revealed. We stand ready to develop this theme, willingness and work, into a standard a standard by which we may fit ourselves for the task ahead. This year we have striven, in a measure, to achieve this end.
