November 25. 1949 Even though P. S. was excelled in points at the annual Thanksgiving Day game today, it was unex- celled in' fine spirit. After all, we just gave W. H. S. a break since we've won for seven consecutive years! December 3. 1948 Monstrosities resembling lions, elephants, and other beasts have been seen in nooks and corners of our school, but not until tonight was the mystery revealed. Why, of course-our class circus party. The committee, which includes Frank Baylis, Phyllis Dobb, Ioe Koffen- berger, Iayne Banks, and Iack Smith, certainly de- serves credit for a well planned party. February. 1949 Not until our class elections today, did I realize that we've already been juniors half a year. How time flies! Chosen to lead our class through the remainder of the school year were president, Philip Marting vice-presi- dent, Ianet Leary, secretary, Iayne Banks, and treas- urer, Frank Baylis. April. 1949 And suddenly it's spring! Boys clad in pastel shirts and girls in plunging neckline dresses wander idly to school-but with their minds on anything but their des- tination. Again we have become victims of that peren- nial disease, spring fever. May, 1949 Imagine, our classmates are officers of Student Council! Today we not only witnessed the campaign- ing, but participated in the grand fight by supporting our friends. Speeches were delivered by the four cam- paign managers, Dick Hughes, Carolyn Stirland, Caro- lyn Dickerson, and Philip Martin, for their respective candidates: Harold Gatewood, Ianet Smith, Iayne Banks, and Frank Baylis. Finally, over the public address, Bill Nicholl and Nona Bradford named their successors, Harold Gatewood and Ianet Smith. Iune 16. 1949 Our class rings at long last!! This day couldn't come soon enough for any of us. Now that it finally has arrived, we can't help but wave our hands and show everyone by the glittering gold and bold black of our newest possession that NOW WE ARE SENIORS!! SENIOR YEAR September 9. 1949 After an enjoyable vacation, which as usual ended too soon, we returned to school today. The only bright spot on the horizon is the fact that at last we will be the masters, since we are now seniors! October. 1949 Financial difficulties have set in. Won't someone please buy a Senior Play ticket? Our production of George Washington Slept Here is certain to be a huge success with a star-studded cast such as ours. November 9. 1949 Well, as predicted, the play went over with a big bang. We simply must remember to turn in the money for the tickets before we get locked up. November. 1949 So far, the football team hasn't been very consis- tent, but as long as we beat W. H. S., everything will be all right. November 24, 1949 Oh well, we'll slaughter them next year, but it's a shame none of our senior football stars will be around to join in the fun. December 19. 1949 My goodness! Only six more shopping days until Christmas! However, we have more important things , if --1' .-My f..---,six-lv? to think of, such as helping to put on the Christmas assembly. Talk about talent! Man! Our class is loaded with performers like Doris Martine, Ianet Streithof, Carolyn Stirland, lane Dempsey, Frank Baylis, Harold Gatewood, and others. Ianuary 3. 1950 Wow! Now that we are back in school, maybe we can get a little rest. That gay party life really wears one down. lcmuary. 1950 So far this year, the basketball team is having a very successful season. This success is- due, in part, to the fine playing of some of the senior members of the team. Ianuary. 1950 For the past few weeks most of the school has been in a political uproar. The new Student Council officers are president, Prank Baylis, vice-president, janet Smithp secretary, Beverly Braniff, treasurer, Frank Iulian. The results of our own class election are president, Frank Whiteg vice-president, Ianet Leary: secretary, Carolyn Stirland, treasurer, Harold Gatewood. February 8. 1950 Television must have a great deal of influence. Our girls must be seeing too much Frontier Playhouse, since a lot of them are wearing silk scarfs tied around their necks, and are wearing tighter skirts. February 15. 1950 Well, tonight is the night of our class reception. That means our parents will have a chance to meet all of our teachers. Don't you just love all those parents who want to know why Iunior never has any home- work? They also make a big hit with the teachers. Heh! Heh! February 22. 1950 Thanks to George Washington we are free from school for the rest of the week. It's a good thing too. as we were just about to put in a call for the little men in the white coats. March 23. 1950 All lovers of the drama will be crowding the audi- torium the next two evenings to see the Royal Masque production of Mother ls a Freshman . The cast in- cludes Ftatie Maroney, Pat Pratt, lean Anderson, Dick Harwitz, lim Speakman, Sally Goldman, Doris Weiss, Lois-Karen Clark, Ioyce Whaley, Barbara Brown, Shir- ley Clouser, Channing Smith, Bob Helms, Leonard Whann, Bill Swezey, Ken Brown, Ioan Leibert, Barbara Outten, and Irene Ragany. May 12. 1950 Tonight we are going to be first nighters and go to see the operetta, Maritana , We hope none of the stars develop laryngitis. May zo. isso We have just received a news report that the Honor Society has successfully taken over the Capitol-Wash- ington D. C., that is. May zs, isso We had better hurry or we'll be late for the Prom, and that would never do. We just know we'll have a wonderful time dancing in the Gold Ballroom of the Hotel duPont. Iune. 1950 After all these years, Commencement Day is here at last! Everyone listened attentively as the class ora- tors, lean Selig and Dick Harwitz, delivered their speeches. As we received our diplomas, we could hardly realize that our happy high school days were gone forever. ' U '
