1937-At last! The never-to-be-forgotten joy of being a Senior. The thrill is never the same again, nor could it ever be as enjoyable with five grades to lord it over. Un the traffic squad those with a domineering turn of mind could exercise their traits with sneering glee. Un the cafeteria squad much the same idea was there only we could gather round, talk, and enjoy ourselves. Thus we either made the infants envy the noble Senior or appalled them with our frivolity. However, we were able to stalk up and down very haughtily and act as one aloof from the common herd. Then of course we always had each other's pictures to gape over and make the most pleasant and hypocritical remarks about this or that toothy leer. Any group gathered round in the corridor was a signal for a huddle over somebody's pictures. The appearance of a teacher was the signal for a rapid breakup. Everybody was getting a bit more blasc about all the romances, young and old, and no longer did the cry .limmy's gut a gur-rl resound when a young lady was escorted by a young gentleman HJ. However, no one resisted the temptation to put in a few digs here and there. and some of them had claws. However school had to go on despite the new excitement, and typing, physics, shorthand and all the rest went on for weary weeks. The poor slaves to physics went around with a mildly puzzled look similar to that of the students taking fourth year math ltrigonometry and solid geometryh all looking as if they didn't know which direction they were headed Kas most of them didn't 5. English continued to fry to make us appreciate English literature and French con- tinued to try and make us appreciate French tsupposedlyj literature. By the time we had reached our last year in French we began to wonder who really could get the lowest mark, and the keenest competition developed between the class members. We were delighted or indignant, according to type, to find that Senior If S. history does not require so much in the way of dates as it does knowledge in writing compositions. History had a funny way of developing into a geography class. and we learned the most amazing facts about Lancaster, Penn. Did you know that it was lvnited States capitol for a day? Also we discussed quite a few other things including polygamy, the gold problem, and how our class members would look in khaki. English turned into almost a year of poetry, and we waded through volumes and wrote hundreds of papers and reviewed libraries full of books. good and bad, old and new. Qlncidently our benevolent professor has a book worth thirty-five bucks if you ever get broke.l Now to return to the more pleasant things of life. The girls of the good old Girls' Club gave the fair dames a chance to model their latest in semi-formals at their dance and did they shine! In the glory of the rainbow and all for vanity just like Eve's fig leaves! How time flies! The Bunny Hop brought with it a new era of letting the decorations stay up for a while. About the last month of school all the tender-hearted and loyal began to feel a little queer about leaving the good old alma mater. The looks drooped, and even a tear or two was shed. After final report cards we can quite imagine a few tears being shed and not from sadness at leaving either. The usual fight over caps and gowns, dance favors, and dates took place but as usual everything cleared up. The crowd marched, the orchestra played, and the couples were duly received. Then graduation! Diplomas and new clothes pleasantly mixed with a sadness and a gladness and the Class of '38 had vanished through the portals. Dorothy Farmer 'IQ
