History Glimpses of historic events of the Class of ’48 will be shown in the following scenes, as taken from classroom drama of the year. THE MOTHERLESS JUNIORS SCENE I Place: N. B. H. S., Room 202 Time: First day of School Characters: The Juniors and Mrs. White Mrs. White: (coming into the Junior Room) “Chil- dren, children! Take your seats.” (The 49 pupils nobly refrain from picking up the seats according to directions and sit down quietly, thus “setting the year off” to a good start.) SCENE II Place: Room 202 Time: September 15, 1946 Characters: Juniors and Mrs. White Mrs. White: ‘The floor is now open for nominations of Class officers.” (Two or three weeks later, same place and characters) Mrs. White: “Well, at last! We have finally elected officers.” SCENE III Place: Football game Time: Fall Characters: Junior Cheering Section Cheering Juniors: “Yea for Wert and Henry and Jim! Carry that ball with pep and vim. Hold ’em! Toby, Price and Boyd, Win and we'll be overjoyed!” SCENE IV (Room 202, later in the year) From one corner Jean: “Boo, hoo, hoo! Nobody loves us any more. Mrs. White has left and nobody will take her place.” Pete: “Don’t cry, Jean. I still love you.” From another corner Marion: “Why so sad, Maxine?” Maxine: (Sighing) “What’s wrong with the Juniors? Nobody wants to teach us and even the boys in our own room pick girls from other classes.” Marion: “That’s right. Toby went to the Class of ’47 and Price, clear back to the Class of ’46.” (Blue Curtain) SCENE V (Still Later) (A cute little blonde walks into Room 202 with Mr. Strickler.) Mr. Strickler: “This is Mrs. Clayton from Califor- nia, who has come to take charge of you.” Mrs. Clayton: (After Mr. Strickler leaves) “And my interest lies at W L. I’ll only be able to be with you half of each day.” Mary: “But who’ll take care of us after you leave?” (Enter Mrs. Moore in time to hear her) Mrs. Moore: “Don’t worry, Mary, Ill look after VOU. Juniors: “Goody, goody!” Mrs. Moore: “Children! Let’s whisper.” Rudolph: (Jumping to feet) “But we’re so glad to have you, Mrs. Moore.” Mrs. Moore: “You little ’ole boy, sit down!” SCENE VI Nat: (As he walks out of Junior Room) “So long, Juniors, I’m off to the Navy.” Juniors: “Good luck, Nat. We’ll miss you a lot. We hope the Navy takes good care of you for us.” Mrs. Moore: “Children! Let’s whisper.” SCENE VII Place: Room 202 Time: Spring, ’47 Characters: Juniors Mr. S. Mr. Strickler: “Then does everybody agree that this sample is the ring you want?” Wert: “I liked the other one better. The one with the purple and pink stone—and the green and yellow letters.” Mr. S:Wert, you’re outnumbered, 43 to 1. Any more comments?” Mildred: “When mine comes I'll be so proud I won’t even take it off to wash my hands.” oi Ruby L: “I won’t even let my best boy friend try ule, ena” Leonard: “And no girl will ever get hands on mine.” Toby: “Bosh, I know a ’47 ring that will be a won- derful swap for my ’48 one.” SCENE VIII Place: History Class Time: April 11 Characters: Juniors Mr. Burger Henry: “That’s my girl you invited, Moto.” Moto: “That’s what you think. First come: first served.” Betty C.: “What dress are you wearing tonight, Betty Goodwin?” Betty G.: “I’m wearing my Navy blue, naturally. The fleet’s in.” Mr. Burger: “All right class, the prom isn’t until to- night. Let’s get back to history. Henry, when was the war of 1812?” Henry: 1932, I believe.” SCENE IX Place: Room 202 Time: Last Day of School Characters: Juniors All together: “We are Seniors. We hope that we can take our places with dignity of Seniors and carry with us the same co-operative spirit which has guided us through previous school years.” NNN RN NR RNR RRR NRE GWE OO ™ Se i el Sl, Sl el Se, ee, St Se Se ar. ar. a ( 28 )
