i t JANS SUEDLEY Smed — the lady in red who vanishes regularly every weekend. Hand's off that chocolate cake — except when she isn't looking. ’.Yhen They Begin The Beguine Smed is in a dream. Six foot two and is thee interested? Take care Sammy doesn't rur away with you some one of these days, honey. METHYL TURNER Turnie is‘our girl from down Maine way . One glance at her landscape plans will convince you that she was bora with a pen in one hand and a drawing board clutched tightly in the other. One of her much envied attributes is neatness. 'Ve strongly suspect that she gets up in the middle of the night to make her bed. All kidding aside tho', she's on our ballot as the Swingaroo Kid .

JOYCE SA' GREE An all around swell is Joyce, although a little amazing at times. If you see someone wandering around in the middle of summer, with a coat or., it’s Joyce. If you see someone plou. hinr around in a blizzard in her shirt sleeves, it -ill surely turn out to be — Guess who. She walks in the rain and oversleeps a little now and then, but she's really cuite safe. A little happy-go-lucky and a lit+le bit on the deep thinking side, too, Jerce is a girl we'll always remember. PCL.LY SCOTT Down to earth is Polly, and we can usually spy a large smear of xit across her face hen we come in from the orchard or vegetable gardens. In the stable, sewing watches on her blue jeans, laying; her accordian, or eating, Scotty knows what she is doing. Then you see that dreamy look come into her eyes she is probably thinking of: 1. The Sears Roebuck Catalogue 2. That little blood bay thoro-bred mare she's going to have some day.

BC YOU RELEIiBER i . . . .Or v ill you ever forget that first agonising evening at the party the seniors rave us??oor little greenhorns that we were,we climbed through strings,balanced potatos and pushed peanuts around as if our'vr very lives depended on it.Chesca was the only individual among us.She amused herself that night by throwing a knife at her door,until some choice remarks from Jane Rosenthal put a halt to the clatter. For most of us the next day consisted of strange faces,getting lost and taking notes from new teachers about things that no one could make head or tail of. .....when the horses came at the ghastly hour of 2 o'clock in the morning?The poor things must have been a little bewildered to see a great host of strange people prancing around in pajamas and other assorted night clothes. The next day there was hardly a minute when'the stable was empty. .........the vegetable classes after supper? There was one in particular that lasted a little too far into the dusk.Andy had euite us hoeing corn in the pitch dark. He certainly got a fine crop of grass on those 3 rows,didn’t he? ....the Hobo Party we had? The'signs leading us to the fire place •were choice: Rest weary feet here. Sit lightly.Hobo Haven and so on. '(here were rolls and pickles and things,all done up neatly in those ¥ed hankies.The smoke got'in our eyes,and the hamburger quickly disappeared down our throats.There was even hamburger left over,or |ould'have been if Holly hadn’t been there. Those were the days’. ....The trip to the Harrisburg show,in the chartered bus? So many‘people there,and yet you were always bumping into someone you knew. Remember how G-oty and Chesca,proud in their new-found knowledge, told a man that the chicks he was selling had Cocklorosis ? They discovered later why he had looked so puzzled.lt was Coccidlosis. And the ride back-everyone singing songs,with the front half of the bus either 3 bars ahead of those in the back,or singing an entirely different song.There was not only a medley of songs,but of arms and legs,too.£ ’-Ve finally got untangled, but some of us are still wondering why we didn't come away with someone elses leg where our own should'be. ...what about Countess,with the handsome finish on her body,the well-preserved fenders,si lent hern motor,blaring horn and smoothly working windshield wiper?As often as not you could find Tempermental Tillie ambling along behind under vigorous protest.Tillie is still in fint condition(see Hr.Andrew for full details) but it seems as if Countess has one wheel In the grave and the other three on ice. le breathe a silent prayer that she be preserved,so that other flori and ag'studnets may know her many charms ....Kay Days one and two? Last year it was Robin Hood.The hero spent his time ditching a'sword and Friar Tuck spent most his time worrying about his pillow. This year it was square dances,polkas and the maypole dance-all of which were executed admirably,though’ with much puffing and blowing.Holly looked every inch a queen,too. ....Li33 Barber's evening snacks? Never did the school bell sound so sweet as when it announced those welcome tid-bits,ice cream, popslcles’or watermelon-they were all very welcome. ....Peanut »eek? Half the school sneaked around trying to avoid the other half- ho were doing exactly the same thing.Then came the
