V ell, we should say so! On Saturday our boys journeyed to Lake- wood where they won first place in the mile relay, sec¬ ond in the sprint medley and fifth in the half mile relay. A silver trophy cup was awarded to North, together with five gold medals and five silver medals. ) May 26 The Senior A’s are looking forward to a party given by the 12B’s on May 29th. We hope that this will not be delayed as the former Sen ior parties have been. With Paul Fritsch and Augie as decorators we expect to see a won¬ derful place such as the “Far East” as in Cleveland. June 2 Don’t you wish you were a Senior and go¬ ing to graduate in another week? They get out of school a week early to prepare them¬ selves for the one great event in their lives. And all they do is come back and loaf around the halls, if they do not have to take any ex¬ ams; and of course they don’t! June 9 At last the fatal day has arrived. Do they all graduate and does every one pass? That is the question which only the powers are able to answer. Sixty
