SENIOR SNEAK Who said the Seniors didn't have n gbod time en Sneak Day? Not they! One leok at their tired feces and dirty clothes would convince you that it was a perfect day. The weather was nice and we start d the day out right by getting up early and starting for Mnrshell Lake nt about eight o'c1ock. Greeted by e cheery fire, we were soon warmed through und engaged in s fascinating baseball game. 1 The lake was no smell nttrwction und, although the water was too csld for swimming, it :ny time beats could be seen floating leisurely on the placid weterg while a meter bent cut deep furrows in the calm surface. An interesting boat stunt wus the towing ef a willew branch. Eleven-thirty feund us with eager egtetites and how thet dinner disappeared! A cake, claimed by the winning besebnll team, was brought on and immediately e fight started. The losing team determined not to let then get away with it and the scrap ended in Mr. Ws1ler's being cempletoly smeared with the unfortunate cake. Varied and amusing games were played in the Qfternuong some enjoyed themselves by dancing and listening to the radio. When we were tired of this another bell game was stzrted. On the lake the beats were filled to capacity while sgroup of adventurous scniers explored the beautiful scenery around the lake and found themselves gingerly picking wood-ticks all afternoon. Q After a few hours of hard play, the remainder of the refreshments were devoured. There were few complaints heard of stomach ache, but you can imagine that there were a number of Wdignified' seniors crawl- ing into bed with e hot-unter bottle. At five o'clock we took our weary bodies hone, after a very successful and interesting day.
