We, the seniors of 1947, do hereby draw up and leave our treasures to the teachers who will be here after wc are cone. We want especially to leave our good qualities (ahem) to the Juniors who will step into our shoes next y car We, the seniors as a class, leave the coach, Bob Groh's Sinatra bow tie and a new pair of stockings to match. We thought you would lik c some bright red one’s so we tried hard and wc found them too. Wc, the seniors, leave to Mr. Walker, a new edition of a daily newspaper, printed by the Seniors, for his special reports in history each day. We want to leave Miss McCutchan a pair of microscopic glasses to enable h er to find the things she misplaces, but never loses. Wc hope they help her. To Mrs. Welch wc would like to leave a new pair of knitting needles because we arc afraid the old ones are worn out. We, the sejaiors., will to Mrs. Taylor a bottle of red ink to use in checking her papers. We knowshe won't need it because of the very smart students who arc in her classes. To Mr. Fl-ish, w the Seniors, leave a new chemical, discovered by his three bright chemistry students, c ailed Ncveruscthis so that he may go on with his experiments and become one of the genius' in the scientific world. Wc hope everyone will cn$oy these new things and v c want them to ut them to use. We shall send an unspcctor back next year to see if they are in use, and if they aren't be-in;; used, vie shall degrade the school ten points, on the use of old equipment. And now to get on with the treasures of the individuals of our class. I, JamcsAycrs, do declare that in sound mind and memory (as far as I know, which isn't too far) do leave my physique to Bob Sanders so that he rnay some day grow up and be a man like me. I, Norma Brawncr, leave my sedate manner to 4,4ary Lou W., v ho has almost equaled me and maybe my part will help her a little bit.
