Hello, all you guys and gals. That man is here again. You know, I've been having quite a time keeping tabs on all of you, but here are a few of my findings. Flashl Would someone please tell me if Carolyn Miller likes Pee-wee Longs-derff or Lew Bonn? You say it's Pee-wee ? Thank youl Who could that be getting out of Eugene Smith's car? L'hy it's Rhodr. Harper ! Eugene, I thought you were a woman-hater. Goodness me, every where you look, you see girls shedding tears because their heart-throbs are leaving to go in training. For full details, ask Kate Burd. You see, Jim Webb is among those young Americans. Well, can you beat it? All the bashful Seniors are snapping right out of it or into it or something. They tell me Louis Dietz now has a girl friend and Grace Smith has a boy friend. By the way, that's a nice necklace, Grace. Congratulations, Carrie, Genieve, and Evelynl They certainly are lovely diamonds. You know, I'm beginning to feel slighted since everyone is donning engagement rings. I've been to New Bloomfield lately and whom do y u think I saw there? You're right, it was that happy foursome. Bob Cams, Connie Wiley, Mary Kell, and Bob McKensie. What's the matter Reba, does Karl have to work on Saturday night? Say, that's a snazzy coat you're wearing, Ethel. Oh, you say Charlie selected it? Well, then, no wonder it's so nice. '.'Such dopey boys, I never srw. Well, you girls are just contrary. - We want things our way - Thats just the trouble with you girls. (Don't get worried folks, that's just what I heard through the keyhole of the 12th grade home room the other day. Arlene and Floyd seem to be getting along quite nicely together. They dd make quite a lovely couple. Why does that boy, whose name is Gregory, like to walk past the seventh grade door? Maybe Eleanor Derr could tell you. What's this we heard about Bernard Britcher drawing pictures of teachers in study hall? iJhy Bernard, you should be ashamed. We wonder who the girl was whom Guy Rhykard took to the Juniata Joint basketball game. How about it, Guy? '.’ell, that's all until the next time. Si :uing off for the present time

The pupixs wore still going to school in t:ie lower building; the high school proper had not yet boon erected. The Blue -act White was in the form of a small magazine, about one half of the size of our present papeb. The pupils wrote the editorial work but the work was printed in the town printing office. In all, it was a very neat pspor. Tho cost was 15 cents per co y. The editor for the first Blue and '.'Jhite was Harold Manning, In 1928 the form was changed to the newspaper type. It was printed 10 times a year a.t 51.00 or 10$ per issue. This paper was also printed by an outside source. In 1930 the Blue and '.Jhite was jtgain changed to the magazine form and was inclosed by blue and white paper. In 1936, the size of the Blue and '.Jhite was increased by several inches but otherwise it was the same form as the magazine in 1935-36, Since 1936, wo have been using the same. 3IHTHDAY Besides celebrating the anniversary of the Blue and '.Jhite this month, we are also celebrating tho birthday of a very famous nan, Thomas A.
