What is there about the New York Trip that doesn't set a Sen1or's mind to wandering? Planning for the trip, making reservations for the boat and hotel and the final send-off. The members who went on the trip were photographed in front of the High School Sunday afternoon, April 15, at 2:00 o'clock Our main concern now is the Graduation exercises which are creeping up minute by minute. Graduation usually takes a great deal of time to make it a successful affair. We want to extend our sincerest gratitude to all the members of the undergraduates for their willingness in cooperating with us and helping our entertainments to go over smoothly. We also want to give our regards to our faithful teachers, who have remained with us in all our troubles in lessons: and we will never forget their patience when we were un- reasonable to them. STUDENTS: We leave you to follow along as you have in former years, and wish you all the success in the world. The following were elected class officers for the year 1941. Bernard Emery..... ... President Valerie Bean ...... ... Vice President Barbara Standeven .... ... Secretary Robert Hunt .....,.. ... Treasurer

Our next activity which came in May, was the Junior-Senior Prom. The following were our class officers: Bernard Emery -------------- President Robert Randall ------- - ----- Vice President Alice Downs ----- ---------- Secretary Robert Hunt ---------------- Treasurer QEHIQB 1 New we come to the last lap of our educational career as far as Elementary and Secondary schools are concerned. We had an en- rollment of approximately twenty-five students at the beginning of the year, but the number has increased and decreased between intervals. We turn now to the most thrilling event of our four years of vocational training. This is, as you know, the Senior Class Play, and was presented on December 6, 1940. The name was UCheese Cottagen and the characters certainly lived up to the name in their talented acts and conversation. - The cast was as follows: Evelyn Hinkle -------------- Betty Newer Judith --------------------- Virginia Jones Aunt Liz ------------------- Doris LeGendre J. Orville Spence ---------- Robert Hunt Gus Hinkle ----------------- Bernard Emery Mrs. Mortimer -------------- Valerie Bean Bartholomew Rennsaler ------ Charles Prunier Uncle Cooney --------------- Holroyd Hirst H42H Alma Carlay ---------------- Patricia Ladd ' Committees Properties ----------------- Barbara Standeven Joseph Angis Tickets -------------------- Theresa Scontras Program -------------------- Alice Downs Stage ---------------------- Robert Hunt All whoiwere able to attend praised the students acting in the play and thought it well worth their while to sit and enjoy a good hearty laugh, especially at Gus Hinkle and J. Orville Spence. We wish to extend our thanks to Fr. Jones for his untiring efforts during the rehearsals for this great event, and also the players, who studied long into the night to be prepared when the curtain was opened on the stage. A school paper was established this year and the staff was well represented by members of the Senior Class. It is hoped that the undergraduates will carry on the thread where we left off and have success to the very end. Members chosen for the staff of the Senior Class: Editor in Chief -------------- Alice Downs Assistant Editor -------- w ---- Doris Blood Business Manager ------------- Bernard Emery
