SENIOR CLASS WILL O EING mindful of our solemn duty as seniors to bequeath to posterity all of our most noble possessions, and being ever desirous of leaving mementos that shall hallow our passing, after serious consideration we. the senior class, being of sound mind do hereby proclaim this to be our last will and testament, and hereby revoke all former wills by us made: 1. We bequeath to our heirs Badge's shiny knitting needles which have caused disaster to many suits and cars: and we also leave her numerous rings, hoping that they will bring luck to their recipient. 2. We sadly part with Alice’s real cow girl outfit which is guaranteed to cause miracles: this magic property is insured the possessor by the watch-word, “Perseverance.'' 3. We jealously bequeath the smooth white legs of Gloria to the “shorts” addicts. And we leave her solid gold charm bracelet to the school should it ever suffer from lack of funds. 4. To the girls who aspire to climb in the world of the cinema we will Ginny’s dusky eyes. And in case they should desire to follow in Garbo's footsteps, we also leave them her long toes. 5. Should any girl wish prowess in the field of athletics, we bequeath her Howe’s muscles which are absolutely guaranteed to function perfectly if spinach is eaten daily. 6. We wish we could tote all of Mary’s quickly discarded Victrola records away with us. but as we are unable to do so. we mournfully leave dozens of practically new recordings to the jam session fiends. 7. To any china-complexioned girl we will Frank s beautiful, even tan. And should she likewise desire something to accompany the color, we leave her Frank's soprano voice. 8. We altruistically part with Gluekie's overfilled larder, and hope sometime to regain our sylph-like figures. And we bequeath her bright blue tennis shoes, which have never graced a tennis court, to the spectators. 9. So that the coming seniors may appear more sophisticated than most of us have succeeded in doing, we leave them Olrich's complexion which will become scarlet by merely thinking about it.

10. Wc .ill hoped in the past to acquire that certain classroom technique, but failing, wc leave to anyone able to cope with it Josie's remarkable intelligence. 1 1. We part with Mary VanCampen’s hair, and warn the receiver that it will take any style perfectly. And as an extra gift, we leave her dancing feet so that someone may be a success from head to toes. I 2. We will Pauci's Huffy ways to the Northropites who wish to become ingenues. And we pass on Pauci’s knack for concocting something different in outfits to aspiring designers. 1 5. We will Lulu’s barrel full of giggles to the young effervescents. And we also leave her ability to be minus one appendix and yet ahead. 14. Wc bequeath Bobby's vast collection of low-heeled shoes to the hikers. And to the postman's fans, wc leave her faithful and true mail carrier. 15. We will Peggy’s industry with her many and diverse organizations to the capable girls. And in addition we leave her raspberry red coat for their adornment. 16.
