PAGE SIX THE 1945 'PEP National Association of Student Council pins are being awarded to each member of the Council. Basket ball is in full swing. William Wallis entertained us in the second of the four Royal Attractions scheduled for this year. He sure was well acquainted with the Sears, Roebuck catalogue. The senior class misses Robert Allen who has gone into the Navy. Lonesome, Freeman? Room 10 Wouldnit be too far away if it weren't for the rotary traffic. Don't let it get you down. The seniors arenit studying. They had to stay after school-the seniors should study. The record dance in the evening brightened things up a little. Truancy is being checked. Everyone who is absent had better be sick, or else-you'll wish you had been. . Each home room has a Minute Man Flag. Some home rooms are in the dog house as far as buying stamps and bonds is con- cerned. Let's get that flag turned the right way all through the school. Just a droopy, drippy, drizzly day. Movies were shown in the gym. We're in the midst of half year exams, and thatis not good. . Now, we can wait for the honor roll, senior honor parts, and those little white slips of paper that our parents will get through the mail. Loud speakers are being installed in all home rooms. FEBRUARY . Paul Michaud is the second from the senior class to join the armed forces this year. Rank cards were given out. . The Student Council is at work getting the trophies collected and engraved so they'1l be ready for graduation. . Rehearsals for the three one act plays have started. Miss Bragoli is coaching An- dante, Miss Rollins, A Hero Is Born, and Miss Perry, Some Women Were Talking. . The council sponsored a bond rally during activity period. Connie Waite, Beatrice Shaw and Priscilla Parker did some singing. John Swett provided the Boogy-Woogy. . The Commercial Club has its initiates all painted up. . Some ambitious students are using an activ- ity period a week to take the special course in typing. . Record Dance. . A big day-no school. ' MARCH 'F Senior honor parts were announced with Marjorie Mayconnell first and Billy Brown second. Movies were shown during activity period. We got a pleasant surprise in the afternoon when the show was continued. The seniors are busy rehearsing for their assembly program. The seniors sure have acting ability-or were they just doing what they'd like to do if they didn't have to be dignified and set an example for the rest of the school? The juniors are having their turn next. Inter-class basket-ball is taking up our time after school now. Mexico won first place in the district one- act play contest. The other contestants, were Madison and Winthrop. Andante was the play. Another term has ended and we get a week off. The seniors went to New York. APRIL The usual baseball weather has started. The Hrst practice, which was scheduled for today has been postponed until tomorrow. Mr. William Hacker entertained us with a piano recital. For fifty-five minutes we slaved over ability tests. This was a puzzler- If 6 men make 6 tools in 6 minutes, how many men will it take to make 100 tools in 100 minutes? We had one session today, and this is Sat- urday. That was the catch in our having off the Friday after Thanksgiving. Senior graduating committees have been appointed. They now have nine more weeks to get ready. At a meeting of the senior class, they votes' to purchase a service flag for the school as a farewell gift. A committee was elected to find out how many of Mexico's alumni are in the service. ' The business managers are doing a good job at getting ads for Pep. Friday. The Student Council is busy W1Il'1 nomina- tions for the coming May election- Rehearsals for graduation have ' ted. Four new members were ff' i to the National Honor Society. Tl, fere some sophomores elected as probationary mem- bers, but we don't know how many or who they are yet. Mr. Litmer and his trained dog provided the entertainment in assembly. Decorating is going on in the gym for the senior hop. To see stars, just walk into that gym. Decorating, last minute invitations, exchang- ing of dances. Senior Hop. The gym looked beautiful with all the stars, crescent moon, soft lights, lovely gowns, glamorous girls, and hand- some men. The punch was good, the rmxslc just right, and the dancing-- swell1 And now we go to press. That's all. X l
