Janet SENIOR OFFICERS Art Marcinkoska .... ....... P resident Joe Daniel ...... .... V ice-President Janet Brymer--- ....... Secretary Senior Recollections '41 .... Registration day .... It seems so long ago-one-fifth of our lives up to this time. There were so many things to learn . . . room 126 is in the east wing upstairs. . . We do not leave class at the warning bell . . . fire drill . . . study hall manuals . . . the Seniors oc- cupy the front stairs. Now we had a feeling of respect never before experienced for General Logan. All -at once Carbondale was our enemy. Lucky us! We had a fellow Freshman on the Varsity football squad . . . major letters. Our first formal affair . . . the football banquet . . . the dance afterward with the sound of formals swirling round about . . . and how we felt the next day! December 8-war! None of us realized then how serious it was. '42 .... We weren't so green anymore. Our class took part in things. We had members on the assembly program. The football banquet was informal that year and has been since then. High school romances .... who went with whom for awhile . . . our grades were a little low- er than in our Freshman year. We had a wonderful basketball team. The jeep drive took place and the queen was chosen from our class .... A Pretty Girl Is Like A Melody .... '43 .... Upper Classmen .... We really helped in initiation then. The Junior Stands be- longed to us. We sold soda at the games .... A Senior's collar bone was broken. We were un- disputed champions of our conference and West Frank fort, a non-conference team, was the only one which defeated us .... the Carbondale game .... a dance afterward .... basketball season. Christmas vacation was longer than ever before because so many boys and girls worked. Our first prom .... we prepared it-cooked, cleaned, decorated. Then that night .... Tommy Lawson's orchestra and a theme of Stardust .... all marvelous. '44 .... At last! We're the class to be envied. Ninety-eight of us remain and we started four years ago with 191. Now we've had some Latin-amo, amas, amat-science, English, math -a general course for most of us. The West Frankfort game .... again a Senior had his collar bone broken but the score was 0-O.. . . A very successful season. Harry James was at St. Louis and some of us got to see him. The fun on the annual staff .... the Senior Play .... the prom again. We sat back this time and let the Juniors do the work. It's almost all over now. Here's to all of us. Let's hope that we are all as successful and enjoy life as much as we have during these four years. 10
