So many new and important events took place this season that we hardly had a chance to keep a record of them. Upperclassmen at last! This year brought us higher distinction and a difficult field to conquer. Chemistry was the newest of the subjects. We enjoyed it immensely. Because we yearned for a regal seniorhood we pinned ourselves to business with an air of seriousness. Our dramatic abil¬ ities came to the fore and we staged a number of dramas. Angelican interest increased—time has marched on—our exams are over. Three years of High School are over. September, 1945 - June, 1946 — Senior Year At last. Dear Diary, we have reached our goal; we are seniors. What a difference school makes just because we bear the title of seniors! With the dawn of September, we set out in earnest with our work. The work before us looked heavy and hard but we forged ahead, somehow. Distinguished guests visited O.L.A. A Hallow¬ e’en party provided a night of fun and frolic. Thanks, to the nicest Sister Directress and principal. An album of movies was very rich this year. Our gratitude to you, dear Sister Mary Laura, for those delightful evenings. Graduation came upon us and we are forced to leave. Thank you, Felician Sisters, our dear teachers, we will always love you. We have had four wonderful years. SENIORS ’46
