LAST WILL AND TESWXMENT We, the members of the class of 1952, having reached the end of our scholastic career, and though somewhat fatigued by incessant mental toil, but still of sound mind, memory and understanding, do make and publish this, our Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills by us at any time heretofore made. To Reverend John Kocisko we leave our most grateful thanks for pre- paring us to achieve our goal and in recognition of this fact shall make every effort to leave behind us the reflections of your edifying teachings both in words and deeds. To Reverend Mother Olga we leave our loving prayers and immeasurable appreciation for the years of growth and happiness we have known under your care and guidance. We give and bequeath to our teachers all our unfinished lessons and our badly rendered recitationsg we also will to them peaceful nights and undisturbed slumber, for no longer will they have to worry about our examinations, no longer will our grades disappoint them, no longer will they have to listen to our supplications. Rest will be theirs, a long well-earned rest from arduous toil. We Seniors of 1952 leave to Mount Saint Macrina Academy, now our cherished Alma Mater, our sincerest appreciation for the sound and steadfast Catholic education that it has provided. Audrey Gmetro leaves to Mary Anne Dulin the art of stenciling. Midge Hnath bequeaths to Carol Kriss her hand for printing. Ann Dayak pins the mimeographing badge on Patricia Phillips. Sally Csejpes leaves Anne Marie in search of another debater. Audrey Gmetro turns over to Joanne Oravetz the gym whistle to keep the girls in step. Midge Hnath gladly gives Marlene Pavasko her ability to speak the Russke language. Sally Csejpes leaves jenny Lind Cunningham the initiative to get up with the clicker. In order to show our good will to our sister classmates, the Sophomores, we bequeath to them the agility needed to keep in step with the Freshmen. We give and bequeath to the Freshman Class a large pail of unused brain glue, to be used by them carefully and persistently while preparing 'their lessons, hoping that this wonderful compound, for which we have nothing but words of praise, will aid them in fastening historical data and other dry matter in their minds without too much exertion. All the residue of our property, whatsoever and wheresoever, of ,, what nature, kind and quality soever it may be, and not before herein deposed of fafter all just debts have been paidj, we give and bequeath to our beloved Principal, Sister Loretta, the use of which is left entirely to her discretion. And we do hereby constitute and appoint the said Principal sole executor of this, our Last Will and Testament, without bond, for the faithful performance of her duties. In Testimony Whereof, we, the Class of 1952, have to this our Last Will and Testament subscribed our names and affixed our seals, this thirteenth day of June, one thousand nine hundred fifty-two, in the year of Our Lord. l12l

THE IOLLY IUNIORS For the past three years that they have been here, our Juniors may be classed as the jolliest and most helpful class. If one is perplexed with a difficult geometry problem or a tedious line of Latin, the juniors are eager to help, even though they are quite busy themselves. Parti- cipation in the first operetta, The Big Day, revealed their talent for the stage. Publishing the monthly school paper was another extra- curricular activity that they performed very well. Not once but many times they sacrificed free time to assist in setting up educational dis- plays. Having this wide experience equips them to undertake the responsibility of being Seniors in which they will equally do the job well. The oncoming Juniors hope that they fall heirs to these fine characteristics and follow in their footsteps since they have been such a fine example to all. OUR SEDATE SOPHOMORES The Sophomores have come far in their two years at Mount Saint Macrina Academy, not only in physical but also in mental and spiritual growth. They are no longer the giddy Freshmen of last year, but in a short time have grown to have a broader outlook on life. Their self-preservance to make this a better World to live in has been proven by their successful efforts to continuously bring joy to M. S. M. A. It was through their unity of work- ing together that they presented the delightful skit, Life of Stephen Foster. It was also their prudent management of the Valentine Hop that will always remain a dancing memory. As true Macrinite students they are prepar- ing for the future with eager participation in all spiritual, cultural and social activities. lf14l
