SPEAKING OF PICTURES . . THIS IS Tllli Nlill' X. C. 11. S. C,1i1'lPl'S ,, I 52 B As early as 1926 the lirst property on the site of the new campus was bought. Since then all of the other properties on the two-acre plot has been ac- quired: at last the project has become a reality. During the last year all of the houses have been moved and the street in front of the high school closed. New sidewalks have been built around the entire triangular campus, which is now being landscaped. At the top left are two scenes of the grounds taken before the work was started. The two lower pictures show one of the houses being moved. YVhen completed this campus will greatly enhance the beauty of our school. The seniors regret their not being here next year to enjoy it, but LIFE must go on . . . Ci

LETTERS TO rolled sandwiches, nut bread sandwiches, crystalized ginger, lemon slices, cherry ice, cherry cake, and tea or coffee. It does sound inviting, doesn't it? The tables were decorated in the patriotic colors of red, white and blue, and while we were eating and having a grand time, the string ensemble played several very enjoyable numbers. After eating, we took our mothers to meet our teach- ers. Mother still talks about the lovely time she had at the TCH- Sincerely, JEAN IXTARIE SPEAS Dear Editor: February 27, 1941. Has anyone told you about What a Life ? It was the three-act play chosen to be presented by the A. K. A. and National Thespian clubs for this year. February 27th was set as the big night and about three weeks previous to that time the cast and Miss Bayless, drama instructor, were hard at work on the production. VVhat a Life, is a quick-moving comedy, written with sympathy and extraordinary understanding of the viewpoint of the high school boy and girl, and of their teachers and parents. The entire action of the play is laid in the principal's office of Central High school Cir might have been N. C. H. SJ. The principal character of the play is Henry Aldrich, a youth in his teens. Bill Bon was aptly chosen to play this title role with Evelyn Bliss playing the girl of Henry's dreams, Barbara Pearson. George Bigelow CVVendell Wellsj, Henry's enemy, almost gets him into serious trouble. However, throughout the play Henry has one champion, lX'Ir. Nelson, the assistant principal, played by Dave Wash- enfelder, who manages to straighten out Henry's tan- gled affairs. Don Lyle played the role of the harried principal of the school. The most impressive feature of the play was the nat- uralness and ease with which Bill Bon portrayed this well-known favorite of stage and radio, Henry Aldrich. Miss Bayless, director, warrants much praise for her excellent coaching and staging of that fine performance. A full house witnessed this performance and from my own reactions and those of others, I know that a more delightful evening of entertainment has not been offered a Casper audience in the high school auditorium for many seasons. Sincerely, IXIARGARET HENDRY i Dear Editor, March 8, 1941. We went to the English Club Carnival last night and we certainly had fun. We enjoyed the slide and dart games a lot, and then tried to make some free throws. l didn't know there were such cute babies in N. C. H. S. until I saw the pictures in the gallery. The fortune tellers predicted a fascinating future for me for a nickel, they said I would become rich-and in the very next booth I won a prize! THE EDITORS As soon as we had visited all the booths and stuffed ourselves thoroughly on candy, popcorn, and soda pop, we danced to the music of the N. C. H. S. swing band. We weren't lucky enough to win a door prize but ,Jeanette McCarthy, Kathleen Crow, and John Cough- lin were able to walk off with season tickets to the .basketball tournament. YOUR JOHN Lowav Dear Editor: Thought I'd tell you about the 1940-41 Mustang basketball season. The Mustangs opened their season on Friday, December 13, against the Superior Dragons. Casper lost their first two contests to the team which placed third in the state tournament. The Mustangs copped their next two games with Powell in two deci- sive victories. ln the district tournament at Gillette the Mustangs were victorious, winning the district title from Mid- west, 34-27. fln an overtime thriller. Previously the Mustangs had defeated Gillette and Newcastle., The biggest and most successful state tournament ever held was in Casper this year. When the four-day cage meet was over, the Rock Springs Tigers were the champs and the Mustangs fifth. This season was the first for Darrell Hathaway as coach and he should be complimented for the successful manner in which he led the team. Truly yours, Bun DANIEL A short spring holiday, allowing preparation for the Easter Parade, came April 11-14.-ED. -lin-i April 26, 1941. Dear Editor: I Our class surely threw a big hop last night. We made up our minds to make this Junior Prom the best ever given in N. C. H. S., and the comments of those who attended make us believe that we succeeded. We chose a constellation theme. The crepe paper ceiling suggested a midnight sky. Metallic stars of all sizes shimmered and twinkled in the heavenly blue. A huge wishing star made of metal hung in the center of the room, and colored lights played on the beautiful centerpiece. There can be no doubt this prom was the best ever. Sincerely, ' BILL BENTLEY The most important and last events in the LIFE of a high school student are baccalaureate, june lst, and graduation, June Sth. This is the last time the Senior class of 1941 appears as a group. june 6-the last bell rings and another year of high school LIFE, with all its bustle and excitement, is gone.-ED. 5
