IULIENNE SEARS BERGLIND llJu1ie!, 'There ir no wisdom like fmnknerrf' Benjamin Dismeli If you, a happy stranger, should wander down an O.T.S. hall some day, you would be sure to be greeted by a merry laugh of our stately senior, julie B. Where there's a laugh, there's me, is Julie's motto, and during her two years at O.T.S. she has certainly added fun to the carefree side of our comings and goings. Not only has she been a regular member of the varsity teams, but has shown her skill by per- forming on the stage. Whether on the field or on the stage, she has never been bothered by knocking knees or uncontrolled voice. After O.T.S. julie hopes to carry her merry laughter to the halls of her future Alma Mater, either Goucher or Miami, where she plans to major in science and! or history.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Thirteen years ago we came And nearly drove Mrs. Frost insane, Linda, Elissa, Mary Ann, Sally and Mary completed the clan. The next year Sandy joined the crowd - She's stayed since then - of that we're proud, In second grade blonde Pat Clemmer came But she left in Ninth - what a shame! Linda and Elissa left in Third But we'll be back, was what we heard, Fourth grade came along with a bang Judy Firestone joined the gang. We hit a new high under Mrs. T. A dog, a trip, and petite Nancy, The Dearborn Museum thrilled us no And Tracy became our bosom friend. Sue Weil had a change of heart, She came in Sixth, then did depart. While she was gone, Roberta came. CH Sue returned in Eighth with more names of fame. Diane arrived with a French accent, Perry from King and Julie from Kent, Christie swept in at Mid-Term I'm from St. Louis, she did affirm. Exams were new and irritating, Our dance dates new, but captivating, Graduation followed the usual theme But to us it was an Eighth grade dream. Things really changed in '54 Lots of new Freshies were at the door, Merritt and Lynne came into view, Barbara, Sarah, and Cynthia, too. Joanne was with us only a year But with her Linda reappeared. Freshman year was really great, Twenty-nine Big Sisters rnade it first rate. Dancing school and Initiation, Candlelight and Christmas vacation, May Day and graduation brought a few tears. These were the highlights of our Freshman year. Judy left to seek the sun. Sally H. and Ruth joined in our fun. Elissa came back to help us prepare For our first prom, a grand affair. Gaity reigned at Blues In The Night g It was a success to our delight. The rest of the year was one great whirl, Parties and dates were enjoyed by each girl. Mary Ann left for a Western state While Anna K. became a new classmate, With her came Polly, Steph, and Julie B. - Four fine additions you must agree. We worked on the Yearbook and Source Themes Then along came February - another prom due, 'Twas a Mardi Gras ball set in New Orleans With masks, balloons and a lovely queen. Our final year was hard but gay. The Royal Family was our Senior play, Little Sisters made the year seem bright, College acceptances brought us delight. Now a word of thanks before we leave And appreciation for what was achieved, Wher'er we go - we'll never fail To remember and be grateful to you, Old Trail. , too.

As Barb prepares for the long trip to Wooster to college, she has on her back her trusty camera, loaded for action. With it Barb is ready at an in- stant's notice to record for posterity the beauties of the out-of-doors. Barb also carries her Parallelepiped and Glee Club music, an extensive collection composed of three years' manuscripts. A corner or two of her gold-plated treasurer's book, Barb's prized possession, protrudes from the stack. It was presented to her as chairman of the Finance Committee. Seeing that her gear is now complete, Barb bids a fond farewell to her friends and sets out to face the world. BARBARA ANN CERNIK Barb A good dirporition I far prefer to gold. Anonymoux
