NITA WARD has Wahiecy Do you believe in miracles? Many do not, but I want to tell you what happened to me this morning. I was looking out the open window when before my eyes I saw a newspaper come toward me bathed in yellow light. I reached out for this imaginary paper. I looked at the date-December 16, 1952. I noticed many articles about R. H. S, graduates of 142. Listen, while I tell you what 1 saw. 1 saw a picture of Edna Beauchamp in this paper, the caption- Dis- tinguished American Chosen Honorary President of Gordan's Select School for Select Boys. In the theatre section there was a column by the famous Eddie Smatresk, movie critic, CI'1e got his training at the Paramountj Alice johnson was honored with a medal for driving 100,000 miles without an accident. After riding with her while in high school, We can appreciate this. In the book review section I saw a review of The Average College Man, written by Barbara Dupuis.

I couldn't fi ure out what Natalie was doing in the picture. I suppose, as usual, she talked iierself into it. For the lirst time in history a lady has been employed by Lucky Teterf' Who should be the honored one but our own Elizabeth Congdon? Many articles written about the foreign situation were the work of Ethel Spahn. We knew she got a lot out of Mr. Davis's Ancient History class. In the Sports Section I found a number of interesting items. An article
