QQSQJVQWQVJHE HEARING EAR AND THE I 1 QQ IProverbs XX. 121 Yesterday I came across a collection of old Arguses. I still had half a page of French left to translate, and tons of History fyou know how much we gotj, but I wanted to look through them for the last time. Mayor LaGuardia Speaks at Dedication. Remember that banner on the front page of the first issue? And remember the day itself? There was only one issue that first term. But next September, remember? Dramatic Group Has Central Role In Pageant, First Dance Sponsored By Student Aid, City Arista Founds Midwood Chapter. Those were the headlines on the next two issues, then Team Startles By Upsetting Two Fives, Midwood School Song Com- pleted, Government Starts Party System: Makes New Election Rules. Midwood spirit was just about beginning, and before we knew it, February '42 was here. For a second time we went to the polls, this time testing a new system. Our last term's Chief Iustice was elected Mayor, and soon we were reading, Argus Reporter Strangles Hitler. Will you ever forget that classic April Fool issue? The next issue announced the Carnival. It was a new Argus, tabloid style, devoted to Victory from cover to cover. What Can You Do For Our War Drive?, French Fete Swells Bomber Fund. Even Ioe and lane Midwood were pictured aiding the war effort. ll

Then it was Iune. The first Tri-Linguist appeared and our lirst senior class graduated. When we returned to school in September '42, what we could do for the war effort was on everybody's tongue. We read about it in the first Argus of the term. War Plans Head Election Is- sues, War Board Spurs War Activities. And we also read, At Last-Mixed Bunch To Lunch. Then once again we held elections. The Blue Party was fast becoming a tradition. We elected Harvey Honig. And in Decem- ber we were reading Record Crowd Iams First Faculty Show, Flash . . . Slacks Permitted. But war effort was our most important job that term. And all of a sudden it was Ianuary, and we were holding our second graduation. And when we returned, we were the new Senior Class, and we were reading, Myron Rosenblum Elected Senior Class President, Bible Quotes, Yearbook Theme. We were busy voting on a formal or informal prom, senior insignia, blue, white, or cream colored gowns, senior celebs, class nite, and all those other things which bring on the Senior Spirit -and I left half a page of French translation, and tons of History, to convince myself that I couldn't throw away an old collection of Arguses.
