Therefore. let’s mention some of the prettiest blue outfits. Margaret Farrell wears a shade of aqua-blue to cheer this drab day. The outfit is a skirt and weskit with which she wears a nylon blouse. If the day happens to bo rainy (as Mondays often are), you’ll be sure to see Kay Burleson wearing a bright tur-quoise-blue corduroy raincoat. Tuesday finds many of the gals wearing touches of red to brighten the atmosphere. Perhaps most prominent is Sylvia’s Eldred “E.” Dona Tubbs wears an eye-catching little bouquet of red flowers in her hair. Wednesday’s color is gray. Among the many shades are Judy’s light gray sweater and skirt and Audrey Spokart’s charcoal skirt with a pale gray and charcoal sweater. Sylvia Miller looks striking in her ombre sweater and matching knit skirt. Now for Thursday. This is near the end of the school week, so a variety of colors are in evidence in the form of plaids. Norma and Shirley Grimes show the latest in sister fashions of aqua and pink teamed with gray. Here’s to Friday, the day before vacation. The symbol of gaiety is yellow and since the gals have monopolized Ihe rest of the week, we’ll give this to the boys. Definitely worth mentioning are the sharp shirts of Ralph Harrison. Fred Lundgren, and Topper Brundage.

EDITORIAL By observing Ihe faces of the students in school, one might think that half of them had just inherited a million dollars while the other half had just lost everything. Of course, these reactions arc caused by report cards and mid-terms. If you are not one of those smiling faces, ask yourself, Why not?” You may think you have a dozen valid excuses, but let’s ennumerate and see. I Fill in the following: Name (no aliases) Address (no hangouts) Sex (answer Male or Female not yes or no) Desired life work (no unlawful work allowed) II True-False (answers arc up to the discretion of the teacher) 1. This course is for the birds. 2. The professor is punchy. 3. It signifies the end of the world. 4. This section of true—false questions is ridiculous. 5. There is no counterfeiting machine in the furnace room. 1. You don’t have enough brains. Nonsense, everyone has an approximately equal amount of gray matter. You just haven’t bothered to put enough wrinkles in it. (Wrinkles arc caused by retainment of knowledge.) 2. You can’t remember things. Memory is caused by concentration and a willingness to learn. Given an assignment, don’t say, But I can’t do this! It’s too hard.” Say, Well, I’ll try,” and turn off that radio! 3. You can’t concentrate in class. If your mind wanders, it means you are not interested in the subject; consequently, you won’t pass that course. Be interested and you’ll find yourself listening and remembering. If you can’t get interested, then tolerate the subject because you must listen. 4. You hate homework. Everyone gets tired of it, we admit, but never come to class without your work done. It is easy to slide into a no-work rut but extremely hard to climb out. School isn’t a six hour per day proposition. It is a tweniy-four hour job training you for adult life. Now see, you are half way to becoming an A student already. Port Allegany High School will start the new trend of smiling faces on report card day. O.K.? 87—100 you cheated 42—86 average 32—41 neurotic 27—31 psychic 22—26 emotionally disentegrating 4—27 example of Dewey’s theory Below 3 no hope If your test has any one of the 3029Vi pages missing, put your right ear in the air. You will find a piece of charcoal and a slab of wood to write on in your desk. If you don’t know ninety percent (90%) of the answers, report to the psychology department for obesrvation. (Bring your own cage.) III Reading Comprehension 1. A student with his head split open is found on the floor. Another student, a fair-haired lad in his early eighties, is leaning over him with an old scythe blade dripping catsup with which he has just been fixing a hot dog in the attic. This passage was written: 1. To embarass you 2. To fill up space 3. For Laughing Larry Lovengood 4. For outside reading 5. For sheer abandon 2. An idiot entered the broom closet, coyly scratched his head with a bolo knife and said, Illogical price rises increase hysteria with a resultant sloping off of buying power.” The idiot is really: 1.

The Biology Club Wennerstrom Mr. Bates Knight Baker “Hold him while I cut his head off.” “Perhaps we ought to boil him first.” These were a few remarks made by a group of Senior boys. These boys were members of the Biology Club preparing a pickerel fish for mounting. Several purposes of the Biology Club are to create a better understanding of biology, to think scientifically, and to furnish wholesome recreation. As the club members reviewed this year, they found it to be a busy one. During the summer vacation, they held meetings and had a swimming party. Then came initiation with eight new members passing the ordeal. Of course everyone was proud of the Club’s projects. Among these projects were a twig collection, a stuffed pheasant and the Senior’s pickerel skeleton. An excellent assembly program which honored the Club’s twentieth year was presented. An outing and party climaxed the year. Stayer, Higlcy, Anderson, HofTowcr, Hughes, Nadal, I honias, Borowski Robbins, McAfee, Burdick, Nunn, Lundgrcn, Wennerstrom Dwyer, X.
