gorewora' FIRST impressions are often lasting impressions. Thus it was with Johnny Morton, who first entered the halls of Richmond Hill by the back doorg namely, Annex 56. Johnny's first impression of his new Alma Mater was a true one, how- ever, and became a firm conviction in a short while. He had decided that Richmond Hill was a beehive of activity, kept buzzing by the zeal of eager and enthusiastic Workers who enjoyed giving their time to school service. In his very first term Johnny found a multitude of ways to get into extra-curricular school life, for he was drafted to be a Dome captain, urged to run for class office, invited to join a dramatic group, welcomed into the Latin club, favorably recommended for captain of the handball team, and informed that life would not be worth-while without that uopen sesame to all Richmond Hill events, a G. O. card. Never in his life had Johnny felt quite so important, not even as a superior eighth grader in elementary school, for here were people who were doing things, and they wanted him to do things too. He and his fellow annexites were convinced that their monetary con- tributions made possible their prize-winning publications, that G.O. could not exist without their five cents and ten cents, and that their attendance was essential to the success of all Hillite social functions. Of course, by his sophomore year, Johnny grew quite blase, attributing the salesmanship pressure to mercenary motives, but his third and fourth years found Johnny one of the salesmen, earnestly selling tickets and sub- scriptions to practically anything for fifteen cents to G.O. members, ten cents to non C.O. members, those poor culprits who hadn't the intelligence to save money by joining the General Organization. Johnny's interests have undergone many changes during his four years at Richmond Hill, but he found a companionable group to join in order to further each transitory enthusiasm, from basketball to music, from scientific research to baseball, from dancing to journalism. If he had had the time, Johnny could, in his Senior year, have become a member of almost thirty different organizations, but being an average Hillite, he has remained content to serve as an active member of Forum, substitute on the baseball team, member of a Senior Committee, alternate class officer, and Dome sales captain. His scholastic record has been quite
