Virtually all phases of present-day living are in some way influenced by science. There can be no denial that benefits which make possible a life of greater comfort, leisure and convenience bring people into closer harmony. - w ig, In social study, where problems of the community 1' and nation are being solved, is found a tremendously 2 'L - ' ff important element tending toward world union.

LESLIE ALLEN I The Board of Education consists, of five gentlemen who comprise the legislative body of Proviso. Elected by the citizens of Proviso Township, they determine the policies of the institution. The Board gives the final approval on the appointment of teaching, cafeteria, maintenance, and clerical personnel. llowever, policies. problems. and business transactions are its chief concerns. wvllliillll A. Gee of Maywood has served as president of the Board dul'ing l94-5-46. Ile was elected to the Board in 1941. Harry WI. Ewert of Maywood, secretary of the Board, is now completing his thirteenth year as a nlcnlber. He has also served as president. B. Leslie Allen of Nlelrose Park is serving his fourteenth year on the Board. He has rendered his seryimes both as president and as secretary. John Nl. Newcomer, Vlaywood. has also been on the Board for fourteen years. During this time he has acted as president and secretary. Fred lf. lleyer of Forest Parlx was elected to the Board in April. 1942. Ile served as president of the Board during the year 19,14-45. Earl H. Sicfert is completing bis tenth year as superintendent ol' Proviso Township High School. llue largely to his expert supervision. Proyiso is con- sidered one of the best secondary schools in the state of lllinois. Louis Ancel is retained by the Board its attorney. He was graduated from Northwestern Law School in 1931. The Board of Education has a great responsibility. The nlelnbers are chosen by their neighbors. friends, and business associates to protect the educational interests of their children. ASSISTANT SVPERINTENDENT C. C. TAGGART, head of 'thc ofticc. makes constant use of the files and records. lt is his respon- sibility to sec that the students are in their appointed places at the appointed times. It is also his task to prepare and advise the eighth grade pupils on their high school enrollment. Mr. Taggart is assisted hy an ahle CLERICAI, STAFF, headed by Bliss Mary Carroll, registrar, who is in charge ol' all permanent records of the school. New this year is Miss Marjorie Hurst, who has taught commerce for two years. She has charge of the school calendar, teachers' files, and requisitions. Wiarehouse for the thousands of statistical records of Proviso students is the MAIN OFFICE. The office handles student transfers. department changes, and personnel records. It is here, too. that 'thc varied and complicated programs of all students are made out. .xgc!mini5f1f0Lfi01fL DR. E. R. SIFERT is Proviso's special pride and joy. Coming here from Minneapolis ten years ago, he looks more like a distinguished diplomat than a school superintendent. The long stride and courtly lnanner peculiar to him are familiar to all of Proviso. From his oak-paneled office, which is filled with important-looking hooks, he has administered to his large family with thoughtfulness and consideration. Because he lielieves that Proviso should he kept he- fore the eyes of the township, Dr. Sifert spends much of his time doing puhlic relations work. GI endeavor to keep a finger in all that concerns the schoolfl he says in Well-chosen words. Hliiverything I do is for the good of the students and facultyfv The mes- sages which Dr. Sifert has delivered to them have instilled i11 Proviso students a cleaner and lrroader outlook on life. By his own gracious living. he has proved to he a perfect example for those under him. Qu 1 1m, t wwwwzs c WW- wnmmmwmmewfa- n lu ,o 1 - S Q .f .-f 4 ,, g K., .

She has been a faithful and loyal companion to all junior and senior girls for the past eight years. J. W. Hinds received his hacheloris degree at Earlham College and his masteris degree at Northwestern Univer- sity. Before coming to Proviso in 1935, he taught for two years at Hopkins High School in Qranville, Illinois, and was head of the science department at Washington High School in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Problems, heartaches, and obstacles can he. overcome by one talk with these, our friends. NURSES OFFICE A loyal Hstudentv of Proviso is Nliss Helen Robinson, R.N., who has served the school for fourteen years. Be- sides giving the students their annual eye and ear exam- inations, she also assists Dr. Nlorris Buyers, the school physician, with the annual physical examinations, keeps health records of all students, 'and helps with the tuber- culin testing program.

Sifert, chairman, meets every two weeks during thc third period to study and evaluate plans suggested by any member of the faculty. The committee also considers those administrative problems brought to its attention by the superintendent, and makes recommendations for action to the administration. Seven members compose the group, each year a new member is appointed and one is dropped. lVIembers of the Advisory Committee select the new members of the Committee on Committees each year. The major activity of the group this year was the study of the General Education Development tests given veterans Hllll others in service. These tests afford the service people an opportunity to earn more high school credit and to obtain high school diplomas. COMMITTEE ON COMMITTEES ln order to further the ideal of democracy for all, the Committee on Committees strives to arrange a balanced program for every teacher. The main theme of this group is to equalize the eXtra-curricular activities among the faculty members. By this method, no teacher is over-taxed with exces- sive duties. The committee of twelve is guided by A. L. Fry, chairman. The members are selected by the Advisory Committee each year. The official meeting was held this spring, at which time the new members were elected. Additional meetings were then held two or three times each week for a month, and plans for the following fall schedules were discussed. CLRRICULUM COMMITTEE The Currieulum Committee, under the leadership of Xliss Violet Hogan, Chairman, meets every Xvednesday during the sixth period to diseuss and solve problems that may arise ill any of the sehool eurrieula. The general purpose of the steering eommittee is to aet as a eo-ordinating body for all eurricular problems of the school and to foster xsithin the eom- mittee and the faculty a free interehanging of ideas and eo-operation of at-tion.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE To prepare programs which keep the faculty informed concerning educational trends and developments, to present several programs of educational interest each year, and to bring con- troversial questions in school routine before the faculty for discussion are the purposes of the Professional Development Committee. The committee, which consists of seven faculty members, meets once a month or as often as possible when programs are being prepared. Some of the major activities include preparing and determining the material for presentation at professional faculty meetings, arranging for university field courses and lecturers. and securing selected printed matter of current informa- tion for faculty distribution, such as 'GThe Ramparts We Defend and uThe. Story of Dum- barton Oaksfi Some of the outstanding speakers presented in the past have been Dr. Ralph W. Tyler of the University of Chicagog Dr. Howard W7ilson of Harvard Universityg Dr. Leon Kranz of Northwestern University, and Dr. John Marshall of the Institute of Nuclear Science of the University of Chicago. STUDENT-FACULTY CO-ORDINATING COMMITTEE Equality is the first essential of a united world. It was with this idea in mind that the administration of Proviso founded the Student-Faculty Co-ordinating Committee only two years ago. Providing an essential tie between the teacher and the student, the organization en- deavors to solve problems which are not particularly related to any other jurisdiction. At the monthly meetings, both student and teacher express their opinions easily and Without em- barrassment. All sides of each issue are investigated and conclusions drawn from the findings. Bullet-ins, homeroom discussions, and publicity are used to stop the disturbing elements. The committee is in close contact with thc Student Council. Wiilson A. Law, chairman, and Bar- barba Groenke, secretary, are the only two officers of the committee. jfze ,jQy1fL0lfe XQ5 giofuwoafion The articulation tea served as an introduction to the seventh and eighth grade teachers of the township and the high school teachers.

The students are allowed to do whatever they desire, so long as their wishes are approved by the proper authorities, and arc in agreement with the constitution. Viihcn activities run legitimately and smoothly, these advisors are practically non-essential. They remain quiet and are, in reality, silent partnersii until a matter occurs that requires faculty attention. They keep the Student Council on an even keel.

At Proviso a foreign language department, combining for the first time this year its classical and modern divi- sions, offers courses in Latin, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. Through these the student sees the common ori- gin, the similarities of construction, and the elemental ideas expressed in all languages. With improved transportation and communication, dialects of isolated areas have already given way to a few broad language groupings. with study and the desire for a united world. we may one day use a common speech.

Page 28 Down the centuries men have recorded their culture in various art forms. In painting, sculpture, architecture, and crafts, people dependent upon resources, environ- ment, government, and temperament have expressed their emotions and creative urges. Only through these expressions do we know the prog- ress of many peoples. From this rich and varied heritage we discover the aspirations and philosophies of other na- tions and other times. Art recognizes no boundaries, it is the universal language. Students of art are stimulated by a cave man's lively animal of 5,000 B.

The broad vision, resourcefulness, co-operation, and talent which we encourage in art throughout our country will help promote international understanding, respect, and unity. Completely engrossed in their plaster casting are these ambitious art students. This should make up very nicely.

Music is an integral part of life itself. The barllarian heats upon his crude drums, and rhythm lives in the jungle. In our modern cities, the conductor raises his liaton and a sophisticated audience is enraptured hy the emotional intensity of a great symphony. Music is truly the language of the soul.

When spring arrived, the seniors strutted sophisticatedly and gath- ered in elite groups. The biggest social event of the yearfthe Prom -was all a starry-eyed lass or lad ever dreamed it would be. The atmosphere was a blend, it seemed, of all the loveliness in the world. The first Proviso students in four years to graduate during peace-time, the Class of 1946 has had anything but a peaceful year. lt has, instead, been whirled through the traditional series of assemblies, dances, College Day, career con- ferences, and Commencement Week. It was Proviso's oldest set who rallied in the glory of having as its members this year's big-wigs--the star athletes, the organization officers, and the publication staffs. For the first time, the December dance was a joint junior-senior affair. Xvinter befell the girls' gym as snow-white and icyw-and blue decorations sent shivers down the upperclassmen's backs. It was the Class of 1946 who sponsored the Junior-Senior Mixer in March. Dubbed the '4Big Top, the dance took on all the airs of a circus. Their last weeks at Proviso proved as hectic to the '46-ers as it has to all seniors. On May 30, the sleepy-eyed students stumbled into the woods for their annual breakfast. Baseball, skits, and just plain picnic fun served as entertain- ment. Baccalaureate, Class Day, and graduation took place during the last week --from June 2 to June 7-terminating a year well Worth living. 'sw w 'Q' 'X 2 66,95 6LlfL QOLUVL45 - The great day, ill lust!

Page 90 endow Kfom tkigdfy Lgponcceddffzf Our Town, by Thornton Wilder, was presented by the Class of 1946 on March 29, and was a rare success. The play was double-cast for the first time in school history. The entire play takes place in Grover's Corners. New Hampshire. ACT ONE The Daily Life May 7, 1901 ln the first act, 'the author genially outlines the history of the town, and something of the character of its citizens. Then he carries you into the houses of the Gibbs and Webb families, substantial homes containing substantial folksl You arrive at breakfast time and are carried through one entire day in the lives of these goodf people. ACT TWO Love and Marriage .luly 7, 1904 The second ilcl concerns the love affair between young George Gibbs and little Emily Webb, and thus culminates in a moving wedding scene, which con- tains all those elements of poignant sorrow and abundant happiness that make for solemnity and impressiveness. ACT THREE A Windy Hilltop Summer, 1913 ln the third act we are led to the cemetary on the hill, where many of the townspeople we have come to know so well are patiently and smilingly awaiting not judgment but a greater understanding. Into their midst is led the bridge, a little timid at first, a little wishful to go back to life, to live again with her memories. But she is shown how impossible, how futile it is to return. The past cannot be relived. Living people, humans, occupied with their petty occupations and small thoughts, know little of true joy or happiness. Truth is to be found only in the future.

They stop for breath and a quick glance back on the road they have trod, then on they climb with resolution to cover the final mile to the summit. Like a Weaver, working on a new and won- derful tapestry, the plans of the year take shape. The officers-Bob Morris, president, Dick Mueller, vice-presidentg Beverly Frega, secre- tary, and Chuck Kvcton, treasurer-all are eager to work for the benefit of their fellow classmen. The tapestry grows in size with the election of the Junior Council, whose duty it is to guide the class through a successful year ill making plans for all social events. And so time passes, until on November 3 the Fall Foot Ball arrives. A strictly formal touch is added to the tapestry with the joyous throng of the Junior-Senior Prom on May 17. The Weaver's skill is taxed to the utmost in convey- ing the effect of color and motion which marks that event. The tapestry is yet unfinished. One section remains to be woven. The Class of 194-7 has one more mile to go, one mile to furnish the Weaver with the sufficient material to create the last design.

Page 94 .ff-sssasvfsfs i t omiom egzow Woica ,Zami g The orchestra has finished, the houselights are dim, the cur- tain goes up, and the. play begins. 'glivery Family Has One, the hilarious comedy by George Bat- son, was presented this year by the Junior Class, under the direc- tion of Miss Emily Reid. The scene takcs place in the living room of the Reardons' home in Fernwood, a suburban town in New Jersey. The Rcardons are a typical American family Whose eccentric- ities, if hilarious, are only normal. Laura, the mother, is a social climber who tells tales about her glorious ancestry. The youngest Reardon. Penelope, is a demon with a sling shot and the piano. W'arry, the only son, is positive he is the coming Eugene 0'Neill. Reginald, the father, would rather tinker with the automobile than ticker tape, and Nana, the wise-cracking grandmother, is concerned only with Bing Crosby records. THE Penelope Reardon ....

It is the Student Council which publishes the ever-popular Hwolf hookw Cstudent dircctoryj, and sponsors the activity ticket, school elections, and many of the as- semblies.

The job of the Loyalty Committee is to instil in all Provisoites a feeling of support for the athletic teams, as well as for the school. Aside from supervising all school elections, the Citizenship Committee conducts the Student Council induction asssembly and the patriotic assembly. An honest-to-goodness money saver for all students is the activity ticket, which is one of the main func- tions of the Activity Committee each year. The Service Committee acts as a co-ordinating medium for various service groups, such as the recrea- tion committee, the student directory committees, and the Thanksgiving project committee. It is the Scholarship Committee's job to reward students who excel in scholarship by giving medals and listing the names of honor students on the honor roll plaques. Supervising the vast number of monitors is the Traffic Committee. These monitors act as directors to visitors and collect attendance slips from each class room throughout the day. The Student Defense Committee directs the sale of stamps and bonds in each homeroom. Awards to the homeroom having the highest purchase of stamps and bonds each week this year was a Chinese-Ameri- can emblem. Selling decals, concessions, and basketball programs are methods that the Ways and Means Committee has employed for raising funds for various Council projects. The Public Relations Committee was organized to promote good inter-scholastic relationship. This year's most important project was the Juke-Box fund.

The Safety Council, which, since 1941, has been a part of the Student Council, is now in its second year as an independent organization. During the war, as accident rates increased, it became more and more evident that Proviso needed some organized effort to prevent accidents. Making Proviso more safety conscious and reducing accidents in the school, at home, a11d in the streets have been the chief purposes of this group. The Council operates on the same principle as the Student Council in that each homeroom elects a representative, or safety Warden, who deals directly in the Councilvs activities. The safety warden must eo-operate with the homeroom teachers in stressing safety to the students. He reads and discusses with his homeroom allbullctins, and keeps a record of all accidents in and about the homeroom. In addition, he volunteers his services in fire drills, helping to organize the passing of students from the building. He also reports all hazardous areas in and around school which might be improved. Included as a part of tl1e Council are the investigation, statistics, and publicity committees. Acting as head safety wardens under C. E. Bryan, faculty sponsor, and War1'cn Ross, safety commissioner, are Virginia Hill, senior class, Charlene Unger, junior, Ben Hill, sophomore, and Alex Reusch, freshman.

The annual banquet is attended by the faculty and all students who have achieved scholastic distinction through the society, the honor roll, or honorable mention. The N. H. S. installation of new members features an address by Dr. E. R. Sifert, and stresses the need for character, scholarship, leadership, and service. It is terminated by an impressive candle-light ceremony.

Striving to enrich the lives of all girls attending Proviso through co-operative activities, true fellowship, sympathy, and loyalty, the Girls' League. began its eventful year guided by Barbara Baker, president, Maxine Cargill, first vice-president, Marjorie Bloom, second vice-president, Julia Benson, secretary, and Jeanne Ham, treasurer. In order to allow the girls to participate in the activities of the League, five committees are offered at the beginning of the school year, each headed by a student chairman. A girl may belong to any one of these committees: Service, Social, Program, Friendship, and Art. Finding lost Freshmen on Freshman Day is one of the duties of the Big Sister. All Senior Guard members and many of the other Senior girls outstanding in scholarship, leadership, a11d service are assigned a particular homeroom and are kept busy for the first six weeks helping to orientate the little brothers and sisters into the maze of school life. As a climax to their work, inter-homeroom parties, picnics, and get-togethcrs are organized. The beautiful and inspiring installation service on May 15 climaxed the end of a perfect year for the officers and members of the League and Senior Guard. Wiith appropriate music and subdued lights, the rose, the pansy, the daisy, and the lily spread their true meaning and beauty over the girls who tend the Garden of Proviso. Page 114 gafdelu or MPL ana! pfa Perhaps the most distinctive activity of the. League is the monthly teas. Special programs consisting of style shows, playlets, and speakers are presented. Each girl swings out in her Sunday hcstn as the phonograph plays. Enjoyed thoroughly hy all the lasses of Proviso, the teas promote the social ease and grace for which every girl strives. The annual Bow Wcrek arrived November 14, and ended in a record hreaking sum of money for the treasury. The colorful hows identified the classes and were worn all week hy the students. Rating among the highlights of the year was the Nlother-Daughter Banquet on Fehruary 6. For the first time in League history, all the moms and their daughters met in the cafeteria for a very delightful and entertaining evening. .lean Bentley, publicity chairman. did a superh job as hostess, and Mrs. Bernice Hartley Butts. the first vice-president of the League. addressed the group. Once a month during the X Period, the Girls' League representatives from each homeroom meet to discuss coming events and hash outw old prohlems. Much is accomplished during these meetingsg all husiness is related hack to the homeroom hy the rep- resentative. Service is the keynote of the League, and Proviso girls do much toward making life more cnjoyahle for the sick, the old and the young. Each year dolls and scraphooks are given at Christmastime to the children at Cook County Hospital, and talented girls enter- tain the white-haired ladies and gentlemen at the Baptist Old Peoples Home with group songs, solos. and smiles. And then there is the Cookies for the Rookies Day held on the first Friday of each month. The cookies are taken down to thc various Service- men's centers in Chicago. These. along with many other tokens of kindness. are given with a smile throughout the year. I-Them thar' am mighty good cookies goin' to them that' rookies.

The Proviso Library. acting as a nucleus for all scholastic research and advancement. is maintained in an orderly condition by an efficient staff of pages and librarians. The pages, who form one of the most, aetive service groups of the sehool, distribute library slips, care for the magazines, file cards, and process new books. They are chosen for this work on the basis of character and scholarship. This ycar's staff of librarians includes Miss llaxine Vincent, Nliss Margaret Wiilliams. and Tlrs. Fern Jacobs. Miss Vincent has been acting as head librarian during the year's absence of Nliss Dorothea Wlestern, who is with the army ill Germany. Miss Wlestern will return to her position as head librarian next year. ln furtberiiig the theme Milne Viforld or None-,M each department has sponsored an exhibit in the library which illustrates the meaning of that phrase. The exhibits have included books and pamphlets accentuated by pictures, photographs, charts, and hand-painted posters, as well as seasonal decorations. art objects, and hand-made articles The new book table, a recent innovation, has proved quite popular and favorable. Each new book is held on display for one week. By this method, interested pupils may look over all additions before they are put into circulation. The student opinion poll concerning the atomic bomb was a highlight held in the library during American Education Wieck. Annual additions to the library average 1,000 books plus hundreds of magazines and pam- phlets. Proviso's library is constantly expanding in the volume and diversity of its materials.

Santa always remembers our Susie Sports, and on December 9 a gala time was had by everyone in the Social Room. There was plenty of caroling and there were packages for all, delivered by dear old Saint Nick himself. Refreshments in the way of peanuts and cake ended a perfect Christmas party. February 15 is a time for thinking of hearts, and the G.A.A. had a wonderful time trying to find hearts tucked away in dark corners at the Valentine Party.

Last in the G.A.A. calendar, Proviso played hostess to eleven other schools at the American Girl Review. ln the morning a welcoming assembly was held in the auditorium.

A group of mamas stops to chat at a P.-T.A. meeting about Johnny's trouble with Miss Pedagog. Aflording an opportunity by which parents and teachers may meet and discuss individual student classroom problems is the aim of the Parent-Teachers? Association. The organization enlightens the parents concerning the routine of the students' school life, and brings the parents and teachers into an atmos- phere of understanding relationship. Meetings are held on the Thursday following the distribution of report cards. Each meeting consists of committee reports, parent-teacher conferences, and a program. Parents are frequently conducted on a tour through the build- ing after meetings. At the request of mothers and fathers, a six-weeks' lecture discussion period for parents was conducted by experienced discussion le.aders on the subject, MThe Adolescent Age. The talks dealt with high school students and their parents. Other activities of the group were a round table discussion by the boys' and girls' counselors, and a program by the physical education department demonstrating present-day methods of building healthy bodies. This particular activity was held in the Field House. Superintendent E. R. Sifert reported the progress and problems of Proviso Township High School. At several meetings, both the school orchestra and band presented musical entertainment. Under the direction of D. Reece Jones, presidentg Mrs. Sam Young, vice- president, Mrs. Peter Stade, secretaryg Miss Willa Jean Gray, general treasurerg Mrs. Henry Gitzel, Historiang and R. E. Poplett, treasurer of the student fund, the organization has completed a successful and beneficial year. Lffagnidltecif aggmloliong R. Lee Osburn Few single years in Provisifs developments have marked a more radical change than that which took place in the music department in 1920-1921. ln the preceding year, musical activities were limited to an orchestra of 18 pieces, and a Girls' Glee Club of 60 members. No public concerts were attempted. At the end of the year, the instructor resigned, remarking that there was not enough talent in the community to build up a good music department. By the end of the next year, there was an orchestra of 423 a band-organized in Februaryfof 25, a Girls' Glcc Club of 90, a Boys' Glee Club of 24, choruses for boys and girls, and classes in voice training, music appreciation, and harmony. R. Lee Osburn had come to town. As Proviso grew, so grew the music department. When an addition to the building was made in 1923-24, a pipe organ was built into the auditorium. In 1924, Fred Vierow took over the band. In 1925, Wallamzc Nelson came to teach stringed instruments, in 1926, Irving Tallmadge supplanted Vierow, and began teaching wind instruments. These three men, Osburn, Nelson, Tallmadgc, have devoted their entire time to the music department. Mr. Osburnys activities have extended beyond the high school. For 20 years, he has conducted the Maywood Festival Chorus which yearly presents Wllhe Messiah,'7 and occasionally a spring concert also. He was for several years choir conductor in the First Presbyterian Church of River Forest, and for several more, in the First Methodist Church of Maywood. He was one of the charter members of Maywood Rotary Club, and se.rved as its president for one year. He was on the summer school faculty in Chautauqua, N. Y., for eleven years. He has held oliice in the National Association of Music Educators. More important than any office he has held has been his influence in the lives of the boys and girls with whom he has worked through all these years. The particular pieces of music he taught them may bc forgotten, the love of the beautiful which he instilled in their hearts and minds is an enduring force. Proviso will miss R. Lee Usburn.

This has been proved over and over. Wholeheartedly, the choir attributes its success to its able leader, R. Lee Osburn. The choir gave two home concerts-a Christmas choral concert on December 10, and a mid- season concert with the orchestra on February 24. To carry out the Holiday theme a group from the choir spent one evening caroling at such place as the Old People's Home and the Children's Orphanage. Every year the choir journeys to St. ,lohnis Lutheran Church of Maywood to present a sacred concert for members of the church and all others who care to attend. On their second annual visit to Hines Hospital, the choir presented a program of varied selections for the veterans. The choirsters entertained the P.-T. A. after one of their meetings, and sent forth their harmonious strains at severalassemblies for the students throughout the year. At the close of the school year the choir traveled to three grade school districts to encourage tryouts for prospective chorus and choir members. Soloists at school concerts and outside programs were sopranos, Betty W'hite, senior, Marion Greinke, junior, and Evelyn Walden, junior. The baritone soloist for the year was Robert Morris, junior. On hand at all times were the choir accompanists, Dorothy Schermeister, Jean Shaw, and Helen Taggart. Promoting the social success of the choir were the following oflicers: Dick Mowen, president, Evelyn Walden, vice-president, Dick Haenle, treasurerg Betty Hall, secretary, Dolores Femer, robe committee chairmangHarold Mascarella, librariang and Roger Lucas, platform committee chairman.

The twentieth annual Christmas oratorio, the MMessiah,', hy George Fredrick Handel, was presented liy the choir and the Vlaywood Festival Chorus under the direction of R. Lee Osliurn, the night of Sunday, Decemlier l6. The beautifully decorated stage of the high school auditorium formed the liaekground for the harmonious singing of this sacred concert. Blue, lighted Christmas trees, arranged artistically at the hack of the stage, and graceful flowers and ferns lining the footlights added to the solemn atmosphere. It was a formal occasion, with the women dressed in formals and R. Lee Usliurn and the men soloists appearing in full dress evening clothes. The eighty-four voices of the choir and the one hundred thirty-three voices of the Maywood Festival Chorus lilcnded together in their singing. The guest soloists for tl1e evening were Nance lVlargaret Karr, soprano, Helen Dean, eontraltog Thomas Williams, tenor, and ,l. Edward Martin, baritone. The soloists supplemented an excellent portion of the presentation. A group of capable accompanists was on the alert at the wave of the lmaton, and their performance was to he commended. They were as follows: Burton Lawrence, chorus accom- panist and organist, Marjorie Struli, guest pianistg and Dorothy Sehermeister, choir accompanist.

So falls the curtain on another gridiron eampaign 1 one replete with thrills and heartbreak. By all accounts, this must be accounted a winning season for the Varsity, one in which the bold, bad Pirates proved themselves capable opponents against an array of seasoned opposition. Since we still maintain the Suburban League to be the best in the state, our hats are oH to a Buccaneer erew that wound up but one rung away from Gravy Row. Page 151 Z?

The remarkable Junior-Varsity eagers, coached by Rex Gricp, established a precedent in Proviso which may be hard to live up to. For the first time in years the ,luniors ended up with a winning percentage. Roaring through a rugged, 18-game schedule, the Griepmen came out 011 top on thirteen occasions while bowing before the enemy only five times. Proviso touched oil the year in grand style, topping Downers Grove, Wiheaton, Elgin, Oak Park, Maine, and Dundee by sizeable margins before falling to Waukegan, 25-24. The Bucs continued on the victory trail. adding Thornton, Niles, Oak Park, and Evanston to the string before striking a snag in Suburban League competition. In the regular loop season the battling Blue-and-Wfhite were only able to muster a .500 average. The locals held twin decisions over Oak Park and New Trier, while the Evanston Viiildkits gained a split in the two-game series. Both Horton and Yvaukegan slipped by the Pirates on the two occasions. ln their eight non-conference wins. the Bue ,luniors displayed dominating power both offensively and defensively. Adding to the list of laurels, Coach Griep's boys came through with the impossible, whipping the seniors in the annual classic, 30-22. Towering Harry Sykes, negro sophomore, helped control the rebounds at center, while Dick Mueller and ,lim Bakas shared scoring honors on the point-mad team.

After taking the measure of the Village curtain-raisers, 30-12, in the opening League game, the Bucs hit a bad streak. New Trier was first to claim top honors, 34-26, Waukegan, Evanston, and Morton followed in order with 36-27, 34-18, and 41-26 triumphs. The second round proved different, however, The locals again took Oak Park, 31-21, and after absorbing a 40-34 defeat at the hands of the Terriers, ,they came back to defeat the League.- leading Bulldogs, 31-25. A 32-29 loss to Evanston and a 24-21 victory over Morton ended this conference campaign. Against non-League opponents, the Kentmen won four while losing five. Getting off to a had start, the Pirates dropped their first three games toDowners Grove, LaGrange, and York be.fore finally ,trouncing Elgin, 31-24. Argo added another defeat to the record, 29-23, before the regular season started.

The locals bested Wauliegan and Morton, while suffering decisive water-loggings at the hands of Oak Park, Evanston, and New Trier. Ed LaBerge, junior free-styler, was Provisols ace. in most of thc meets. Besides contributing heavily to the point total in every contest, LaBerge earned his reputation as a record-smasher when he broke two marks in the. Highland Park pool. He also copped a fourth place in the state meet at New Trier. Dick Hutcheson, top diver, dominated thc. first spot in most of the Suburban League duals.

These freshmen really have it easy these days-no more taking the elevator to the cafe- teria cn the ninth floor or going north to get to I08. Those bluebooks certainly have killed all our fun. It looks as though I have quite a few new under- studies this term. This life in Proviso will probably be quite a shock to them, won't it? But we'1l keep an eye on them, son, and lend a helping hand over the rough spots. What? Yes, the first few days are always the worst from the teachers' point of view. You think the faculty looks tired? Just wait until tomorrow. Then the fun reallv begins. J U It's more like Old Home Week now that the up- per-classmen have returned. They know all the an- swers, of course. lt's just a question of seeing the gang again and impressing the newcomers. Listen to those seniors affectionately discussing their new homeroom teachers. Yes sir, I feel much better now, but look at the dismal faces along Faculty Row. Things are linally beginning to settle down. Those xS2l9f8If1fLA8l ,Tis time to shake our drowsy heads And waken from our rest, For scho0l's begun, and one and all, Weire out to do our best. ever-aggressive seniors have already begun surveying the female crop in the lower classes for new and bet- ter social contacts. You have to admit, those sopho- more gals aren't bad at all. But we must get back to the more important duties in school . . . Well, well, if it isn't the Student Council. Seems as though it7s begun work early, too. There are the Big Wheels, the chairmen of the Council's many es- sential committees, holding their first meeting. The Traffic Committee is trying to discover a fool-proof method of preventing Junior from romping all over mc at the wrong time. Now that the homeroom rep- resentatives have been elected, the Council can really settle down to business. lt'11 be a busy year. Ah-hah, the first Pageant. Is it good? Why, it took highest honors in the annual Gallup Poll! I keep every issue, so I know what's going on 'round here. Let's sec-freshmen introduced to Activity Ticket, Big Sister Parties for frosh girls. My, these yearlings have quite a time in September. Join this, join that, buy this, get that-some racket! Like football? Wait'll you see our team! Oh, you have? Well, we looked pretty good against La Grange and Elgin, didn't we? And what did you think of our snappy band? uUnder the blazing ares, with a capacity throng on hand . . . Wow! What a short month. Yvith all the pre- liminarics out of the way, maybe October will be a little more peaceful. Are you with me? t . ,., gzivi ,, .,,. , . vyny ,.....,. y ,.,,. . ,W .uilyn ,,,, - y V y .--X, r. .... ..

At least, the new auto and machine shops still appreciate me, though. The maintenance men gave me the once- over, but good, last summer. Listen to those seniors howl about the history and English assignments, will you? Ah, but we must de- velop mentally and physically as well as socially, boys! By the way, how is that mile on these brisk October days? Now, now, no profanity! Goodness, we must find something to do. The faculty has to have its fling, too, so l opened the month by playing host to the teachers and their offspring after hours. Such resemblances you never did sec. My heart turned into a warm blob at the sight of ,em all. Let's see. Herels another freshman activity, the G. A. A. Playday. Better join, girls. The fellas like their gals rugged. What? Oh, I was trying to avoid that. But, gosh, those boys from South Bend Central were pretty tough. What's one loss among friends? We'll take the rest of them for sure. Say, we'll be busy, after all. That's the Youth Fellowship Organization, which was founded on the co-operative work of both church and school, going out for its picnic in Thatcher's Woods. The Fellow- ship is a fine group, and I'm proud to have had it under my wing for seven years. The choir is going to have a breakfast in Thatch- er's Woods, too. Yep, things are always popping around here. What say? That's right, the fire control -campaign QCWOAQI' The world is turning red and gold, And things are looking gay. Weive settled down to strict routines And learned that all's not play. is sponsored by the Safety Council. lf they could find a way to douse some of the torches these love- sick fellows are carrying, we might see some im- provement on the report cards for the first period! Gad, it might as well be spring. Look at thisgmy proud Buccaneers are raising the roof in the Suburban League. I count three vic- tories this month over Waukegan, Morton, and New Trier. Hey! Who's laughing now? Where are the greenhorns dashing this fine morn- ing? Why, to the Scholarship Assembly, of course. The Student Council tries to impress the freshmen with awards for scholarship. Many are properly in- spired, but the rest . . . ? Well, it takes all kinds to make the world. What do you say we go to the P.-T. A. meeting? This is one of my favorite pastimes. Many a tactful teacher has bowed before the withering onslaught of an irate Mama while trying to explain why Johnnie got what he got. Listen--quite a session, isn't it? Democracy in all its glory, right? Our last stop for this month is the Memorial As- sembly. These are my children who gave their lives so that the torch of liberty may forever brighten the pathway of youth. I shall never forget them! What I can't understand is why such things have to hap- pen. There appears to be no reason for life's cruel- ties, I bow my head in sincere regret. Well, my prediction of a peaceful month back- fired slightly. l suppose now that the freshmen are an organized union with newly-elected officers, the situation will improve. Anyway, we can hope for the best in November. Coming along? , ,. gg, x, A-5, M l if NVQ, ,. 1 . - Q, . X 1.5 ii' ,K . , Y Q M X Q 2 2. ..,,.,... ,,, 1 H ,,,,,Hg::. izaqv A IAQI 1 N lill 1,3 .

What's the matter, son? You look tired. I know you'rc not used to this rugged life, but buck up. NOVCIHbCI,S bound to be easy. We have three holi- days! There go the sophs to their party, but listen to them moan. Imagine-at their age, they're com- plaining because the party's in the afternoon! Don't know what this younger generation's coming to, but apparently most of it is on its way to the shindig, in spite of the time. Ha!5take a gander at that Proviso-Evanston score. The big game is next week, so now, the lull before the storm. There's the team now, out for the Pep Assembly. What voice? Oh, that's Manley W. lmmel. Cimon, yell! That means you, son. Christopher Columbus, what hit me? Yeow! The 1945 Proviis are here! There goes my quiet week. Look at those kids mobbing my halls with yearbook and pen in hand. lt's been a long, long time. I can't get out of this, so let us commence with the cere- monies, so to speak. Where do I sign? And look at that line of girls-some poor, helpless, gridiron hero must be on the receiving end. Vllhat price glory! Land o'Goshen, here it is already-our first big holiday, Armistice . . . What? Oh, yes, the game. Big crowd, wasn't it? The Servieemen's Homecoming was certainly a success. Oh, the score. Well, we'll beat them next year, just wait and see. 1'd advise you to drop the matter as quickly as possible, though. The Oak Park game is definitely a sore spot in my old heart. OUZWL el The month of love and heaps of tlmnlfs Has entered once again. Footba-llis left the spotlight, Now the baskets please our men. Coming back to the brighter things in life, how about watching the Junior Class Play? You saw the matinee? Yes, it was excellent, but I couldnit figure out just what every family was supposed to have. There were several things in that play which, if every family had one, would make this world a lot different! The Thanksgiving assemblies were, as usual, solemn and heart-tugging. Every student was sure to give thanks for at least two items-thanks for giving us the time out of class, and thanks for giving us two days off! Well, son, what do you think of our basketball team? Not bad for the first home game. Now, I donlt know about you, but l'm going to stuff myself with turkey and hibernate over the week-end. What? Oh, yes, thatis the Articulation tea being given to start Alnerican Education Week. Shall we join the pedagogs? We've been hearing education cursed by the students for so long that it might be well to hear a civilized discussion for a change! We might as well see everything-Open House, Book Week, and displays. Open House is really a trial for the freshmen, you know. Spitballs, rubberbands, and wiseeracks must be replaced by good manners, and most horrible of all, the answers! Good old November brings the end of another grading period and more troubles. Wle could have used a dozen holidays this month. What? Oh, we 4-an't rest! Time marches on, so synchronize your watches and we'll be on our way. Decemberis bound to be good. Page 169 Ready, son? We're off to the Senior Guard For- mal, but be on your guard because these gals are- well, they've been here four years, almost, and they know all the angles. We'll have a good time this month, son. There ought to be a let-up on the study program, and we'll have more time for parties. Let's join the G. A. A. Christmas party in the Social Room. Vfe might get a spot of tea or -cocoa and a wafer for our eHorts. Wfhat? Yes, it is quite a babble, they'rc probably discussing-oh, goodness only knows. Can't make any sense out of that babble. Like our decorations? Proviso definitely goes all out to get into that Christmas spirit during the holi- day season. Practically all of our organizations con- tribute to the festivities. Come along, I'll show you. Well, what do you think of our orchestra now? And the choir sang beautifully. It makes me mighty happy to be the Godfather of such a fine school. What do you think? Heavens to Betsy! l'm so engrossed in the Yule- tide joy that I'm neglecting my duties. We'd better check up on the meetings and school business. The Student Council held its meeting per schedule, a11d the Proviso Players are carrying on undisturbed. What? Let's see. They're presenting '4Rich Man, Poor Man now. Not bad. We have some future Barrymores and Bankheads in that organization. Ah! The Ushers Club seems to be in deep thought. The jobs are numerous around this time, with so many assemblies to handle. Their motto 868710, 81 That month at last, and arenit we glad? Itss always so much fun. We,ll sleep too late and gain some weight With goodies by the ton. ought to be, MWhen we usher it, it's bound to be good !', Well, another party. Sounds like the Girls' League Christmas gulp and gab affair. Nothing much to listen to, son, and I don't care for tea, anyway. Be- sides, who wants to know why Egghead is a good guy in spite of his looks? Whafs this? Two tickets to the White Waltz, a junior-senior get-together. This idea of mixing the upper-classmcn definitely meets with the approval of my children. The committees must have worked hard to make the affair a success. Here-let's sip our punch and watch from the sidelines. Only two more days of school left before the va- cation. Then I can get my rest. What? I enjoyed the Messiah, too. That Christmas celebration is mar- velous every yea1'. Add it to your list of umustsf' This is a wonderful day. We can listen to the an- nual choral assemblies and relax with no school wor- ries. Don't blame me, Junior, if you had handed that term paper in when it was supposed to be, you'd have a clear conscience! He.re's a nice assignmentg forget the algebra, but watch out for that Mistletoe! Well, son, not a bad month after all, was it? Oh, I won't be lonesome. Illl look in on you from time to time. Now enjoy your vacation, because we have some rough going ahead of us in 1946. And remem- ber--if you're going to do any celabrating, drink to me only with thine eyes.

We have a lot of work coming up now, so let us bc on our way. All set? What do you say we take in the basketball game tonight? Weivc been doing pretty well on the hard- wood this season, with eight victories and only three defeats. Whoa! Chalk up another mark on the posi- tive side for the Bucs. Waukeganis good, but we were one point better. Nothing like starting the month off right, eh, son? What? Yes, the MX period really comes in handy. The homeroom representatives are usually eager to break the monotony of HA period with a little discussion. Of course, Junior doesnit mind it either-especially when that history map has to be finished by second period! Let's waltz into the matinee dance and trip the light fantastic to the strains of our fellow artists' music, shall we? What? Oh, it's not had at all for twelve cents or a punch on the activity ticket. Most of my little friends come to warm up for a rugged week-end. Why the lull? My dear boy, you must be new around here! Final exams are fast approaching, ones in which there is no coaching! Look at poor Junior. I'm afraid thereill be too many theorems to memorize by the twenty-third. We'll have a couple of days' rest, but then we have to start the new semester with a bang! What's new on the menu for now? Ah! A senior assembly with Orcnda, the magician. I always wanted to know how that woman is sawed in half. What? You bet he works hard! In Hollywood, they do it with mirrors. f ! . 6LlfLlflf6Ll We sweatcd, swore, and studied some, And soon the finals came- But then we dashed right off again To be a photog,s game. Oh, oh! There go my free nights. It says in the Pageant that registration for Night School begins January 16. I don7t know why I should bother, but it might do some of the parents good. Goodness knows, they don't know everything. Vifhy don't you join? January Jump? Oh, thatis thc Ushers Club get- together. My, what a cozy atmosphere in the Social Room. No, Junior, you can't gog you have to be asked. Why, 1'm shocked beyond words! Who are those handsome creatures roaming the halls in stiff shirts, coats, and even ties? Must be senior picture-time. The photographs are being taken in Room 218 by a professional photographer. Nothing but the best for my children. How was that wrestling meet? Yes, sir, wc really have a team, and it's the same every year. Proviso's only trouble is in finding suitable competition around these parts. Another state title is in the effing, I hope. Yes, I think we stand a fair chance, too. My freshmen are really getting a taste of that old senior enthusiasm. The class rings have finally ar- rived! There goes the thundering herd to the busi- ness officc now. Well, weivc had a busy month, son. Let's top it off at the P.-T. A. meeting. The history department is supposed to reveal its methods of teaching. Maybe we can find out why Junior failed. Get a good nightis sleep, son. February will be a busy month. Meet me on the first, if you're still game. A 1 QQ, . - ,.,. ,,,A: W y A , .I ,. ,.., mg ., . . .,A ,Z .-,. 1..

My chil- dren don't seem to mind at all being on the inside looking out. What have we here? Quite a full week. Senior Good Fellowship party, Student Council, Proviso Players, and a Matinee Dance are scheduled. What? Oh, the basketball team. True, we have been slip- ping lately, but we'll pull out of it, just wait and see. Listen to that band-my band! You Won't hear a finer high school band in the state. Of course, with that magnificent scenery made by the art depart- ment, Boris Goudonoff eouldn't miss. We sorta got pushed out of that Mother-Daughter Banquet, eh, son? But look at that crowd. Susie's trying her best to make Mama and me life-long friends, and with service like that, I'm in. I sure miss that roast beef, but weire men, son. Let's hear what the Coast Guard has to say, in- stead. After a talk like that, I think many of my male children have definite plans for the future. Not a had life, after all. Oops! If Junior doesn't get busy on that homework pretty soon, heis going to have to join the Foreign Legion! Son, when I pass on, remind me to thank Lincoln personally. That holiday is just what I need. Better back away, son. Looks like Cupid's squadron is squaring off for an attack on my home grounds. Come along now, I must warn the male contingent of impending danger-that is, if it wants to be warned! The Girls' League is probably cooking up some treachery at their Valentine tea, besides. This Provi Assembly is just so much poppycock to me. I can't understand why anyone should have to be sold on the idea of buying a year's worth of precious memories. No one has to prompt me. Any- way, those pep talks should do the trick, don't you think? Let us gather our fighting spirits and be off to the Patriotic Assembly. VII e need something to bolster our sagging post-war effort. There's a peace going on, and not too well. Our stamp sales have been lag- ging terribly, to say nothing of charity drives. The last game of the regular basketball season's coming up, but we haven't done so well as we ex- pected. What? Say, don't count us out, son. We still have a chance in the state tournament. Yes, that's the Junior Pal party in the Social Room. I suppose it's lots of fun, but there's one thing wrong with it in my estimation. Boys ought to be included in these pal-finding aHairs. We might find more interesting friends! Trot along to the Junior Assembly, son, while I check the books for February. Don't want to make any mistakes with income tax day rolling around. That was a tough month, but hang on. There's only three more to go. Shall we begin?

And be sure to dress up, because our first stop is the Youth Fellowship Conference. This is another one of my more cultural activities. Youthls high ideals are set up here, and the students really take a firm step toward the serious things in life. The theme of this year's Conference is Patterns for Christian Livingf' Something worth talking about, l'd say. But right now, l'm interested in that dinner. I always could talk better on a full stomach. Can't you? While We're thinking about food, we might drop in on the Fiesta Frolie, the Girls' League chile dinner in the cafeteria. Wfe could bring our own hot tamales and make quite a meal out of it. You want to go to the matinee dance? But we were there last month! Oh, l see. Wlell, if thatls all the progress youlve made with that slick chick in a moon, son, you'd better quit now. These gals work fast, but maybe you've been lucky. There she is over by the wall, make with the sweet talk while I listen to this carpet-slicin' sextet. Now drive that woman from your mind, song we have more important things to attend to. Bend an ear to that beautiful harmony. That's my Choir! l like just about any kind of music, but this tops the list. l'd sing myself, but they won't have meg my vocal chords haven't been oiled for years. Quite a large cast for the Scholarship Assembly, don't you think? My prize pupils have worked bard Marcia A conference and a circus, nowg A medal and election4 All in the midst of chilly winds That color our complexion! for those little medals. Take a good look at them, son, they'll be popping up in the news before many years have passed. Let's seefMUshers Club, National Honor Society, Student Couneilfall on the job and busy as bees. I guess we don't have to worry too much about them. So you want a party? Let's see what we can do. Here we arefthe Junior-Senior Mixer, strictly a girl-snag-fella hop. What? So she asked you to the party, eh? Wfell, have a nice time, and try to be good. llll just meander around and take in these circus decorations. My, there's Uncle Louie in the third cage! How does your head feel, son? lf you've gotten over that root beer hangover, we might hear the band this afternoon. Nothing like a rousing march or two to sooth a lame craniuml Listen to those silver-tongued orators warming up for the G. A. A. elections. I have a better method of electing officers, though. The first candidate over the obstacle course is crowned president. We want brawn, not brains. Talent is where you find it, son, so we'll take our first-row-center seats for the Senior Class Play. The artists are presenting Our Town this year. One good thing about this play is that any loss in box- offiee profits can be made up with the money not spent for scenery! That takes care of business for March. Meet you in April, son. ft 1 IAAZ T AA.. g i c c r c c i . s It c a a vi a' Q ii a c nfe I E ..

We'll be too busy to notice the coming spring sunshinefor will we? Wipe that stardust from your eyes. The Pronfs a long way off. Ah! Here's something. My future politicians are hard at work on their speeches. Let's listen in on this mush-slinging campaign. Wvhat? Wvell, itls hard to tell just who7ll be elected, but 1'11 place two bucks on that first boy. Look at the snappy bow tie and sharp sport coat. If he promises to kiss all the babies, l1e's a cinch to win! Look at this. A real style show. Let's go in for a bite to eat and a gander at the latest in women's apparel. Say, that's your pigeon modeling the bath- ing suit, isn't it? Well, now I can see what you've been fighting for. Carry on, son! Come on, or we'll miss the orchestra concert this afternoon. Mr. Nelson's spring program is always worth hearing. Well, I told you we should have left earlier. There isn't a seat to be had. Anyway, we can still hear some of the music from here. As soon as we supervise the Student Council meet- ing, we ll be on our way again, son. A Senior Guard Mothers, tea? Good! This gives us a chance to fill our faces again and find out what's going on around town. I've been dying to find out what ever hap- pened to ,Iunior's uncle's third son who was supposed to have run off and been married to one. of the Sia- mese twins! AGM! We've brought our raineoats into view And blinked our misted eyes, For Lady Springtilnffs entered in With hazy, gray disguise. Be gay, soplloinores! Enjoy your class play While the enjoying's good, because tomorrow is a red-letter dav. It'll take a report card to break that spring fever. Another HD7' in algebra this period will sorta put you behind the eight-ball, won't it, Junior? Well, vou're lucky, son, but think of your dreamy doll who inight have to stay in nights next month to make the grade in English. If you don't know where your next meal is com- ing from, follow me to the National Honor Society banquet. Look at those faces, my children have grown up to be fine young men and women. But we Il1llSI17t chatter so long, pass the butter! Well, son, if youlve never known anything more about Easter before than the fact that Bunny Rabbit hides your eggs, here's your chance to learn. Sit back and enjoy some of the finest Easter music you'll ever hear. Sorta leaves a lump in your throat, doesnst it? What the Bible puts into words, my children can express in music. Yep! You bet it's a good world, after all. Since we're both lovers of the fine arts, son, we,ll forsake the Senior Guard informal and get a good night's sleep for the Music Festival tomorrow. What? Oh, I forgot. Son, that gal will be the. death of you yet. But you,re living high now, eh? Well, that's the spirit! Watch the root beer, song we want to start May off right. . 1 . I ,.,..f f tfe .

Must be the weather, it makes me want to dream. So you have the same trouble, eh? Well, you have a pretty good reason for walking around in a daze. But enough of this. May is no time to be loaf- ing, let's go! We might as well start with the Night Relays. My sons are running tonight, and unless I miss my guess, we'll have a fair chance of winning. Of course, the neighbors from across the river will be there, and they're bound to cause some trouble. Coming? Bring the gal along, if you wish. Whoa! Before we go, let's watch the G. A. A. in- stallation. lt's really a solemn, breath-taking cere- mony, and we can always grab our share of the re- freshments. So she's really the new president! I thought she'd win. Everything's in order, but look at that college prep history class. Dreaming about those diplomas, I'11 bet! Hey, Junior, better go back to the book, you won't even sec that sheepskin if you don't pass history. Well, well! The HI-Y lads are stepping out for their annual tussle. It's about time, after a year of meetings, sans females. You'll have to take your baby to the Lido tonight, son. They won't let you in the dance. Gad! Another installation.

You think it's pretty good, too, eh, son? ,lust look at those officers in formals and the flowers in their arms. Makes me feel kinda sad-like at a wedding. Where is that lush music coming from? Just look at the fellows in their tuxes and the gals in their swishy formals. I know-this is Promtime! It does my heart good to see my children sprouting into young manhood and womanhood. My, there certain- ly are some handsome couples making their way into the Field House. What's this, more voices? I though that after last night, all would be quiet around here. Oh, it's my sophomores. What! You're going to have a party, too! And at night instead of afternoon? Now aren't you proud to be so grown-up? Have a good time, my children. Gee whiz, smell that bacon-and-eggs frying. Couldn't be anything but the Senior Breakfast. Just look at the fun they're having. Dollars to donuts, nothing but the Senior Breakfast could have gotten ,em up so early! Ho hum, what a life . . . Guess maybe I better rest up for graduation next week. Nope, you can't get in there, you have to have a ticket. Land 0' Goshen, son, if it isnlt time to quit al- ready! Now that June is actually on its way, I feel pretty sad. It's been a g1'eat year, hasn't it? All We have left are memories to tide us over the summer. Hate to sec those seniors go. They were a good crop. Come on, son, let's go. Our job is done. ..
