MILESTONE SEVENTH GRADE ACTIVITIES This year the Fifth, Sixth and Seventh grades gave a Christmas play under the direction of Mrs. Burkely. It was called The Bird's Christmas Carolw, in which Ann Hayes took the leading part of Carol Bird. Miss Carey atf tempted to instruct us in hockey at the first of the year, but she later gave up in despair. Not long after she decided to teach us basket ball, but this also failed, so she tried captain ball, an easier form of basket ball. Ann Hayes, who was put in charge of the war stamps in our class, has almost missed lunch several times trying to fulhll orders. She has done a wonderful job, and we have been one hundred per cent each time. Paula Steward SIXTH GRADE ACTIVITIES This year the Sixth Grade went to see the miniature Thorne rooms. We were taken by Mrs. Hall. The rooms were charming, and we all enjoyed them immensely. To earn money for the Annual we decided to have a cake raffle. The cakes were made by Mrs. Geiger and Mrs. Fankhauser and Joan Fankhauser. The winners were Penny Hall from the third grade, and Jean Zeigler from the sixth grade. We went over our quota since everyone brought in ads and we came in second in getting the banner which is awarded to the class which makes the quota first. Arme Forester FOURTH GRADE ACTIVITIES First of all, I will start telling you about weekly, monthly, and yearly things that happen in our class. Cnce a week Miss Kemper pounds on the desk and says, Children, you have all brought your war stamp money, yes, no? and replies come back yes and no. Children, have you your war orphan money? No? All right, bring it tomorrow . Once a year she pounds again: 5'Children, do not forget to bring war chest money tomorrow . Now we will go back to Christmas. The Third and Fourth Grades gave a play that was a great success. Nancy Vinsonhaler, Barre Schmidlapp, and Betty Resor were the most important people in the show. We celebrated Lincoln's birthday and Washington's birthday. We sang songs about them. For Easter I think we are going to make presents for our mothers and fathers. Some children are making plates for their parents. Well, I must go now, Miss Kemper is pounding on the desk and I must pay more money. Marguerite Foshay Page 40

MILESTONE JUNIOR ACTIVITIES At last we of the Junior Class have attained that wonderful position of being Upperclassmen. We decided that we must give CPS some reason for being proud of us so we gave a bazaar and what a bazaar! We had a Chamber of Horrors, dart game, and an auction, and, as a result of our efforts, we were the first class to reach our quota this year and the first Junior Class ever to reach its quota so early in the year. So we think our pride is justihed and only hope you think so, too. Cameron Dill SOPI-IOMCRE ACTIVITIES To raise money we had our second annual Bingo Party and also announced the Chance winner. The receiver of the purse CThank you, Paula and Freddy Mauej was Polly Keck, who acted very surprised after buying only a dollar's worth of chances. Patty Armstrong won the Hrst prize at Bingo and eagerly seized the package of those animals with two bumps . Ellen Van Antwerp Cynthia Wyman FRESHMAN ACTIVITIES The members of the Class of '48 were greeted last Fall by the Seniors and Freshman Week. The happy week arrived two weeks after school started, and we all appeared garbed in stockings of various colors, our fathers' pajama tops on backwards, bows on our skirts, towels around our heads, and pumps with socks. The trial proved to be embarrassing, but the awful week was topped off by a picnic at Sally Mathisls house. Several weeks later Betty Houston's grandmother gave a slumber party for the Seniors and Freshmen. After weeks of careful planning, the much heralded skating party arrived on December Sth. It was an eventful evening, and we all went home tired but happy. At the time of this writing we have played one basket ball game, that with the Sophomores, whom we beat 40 to 17. Betty Wulsin jane Vinsonlfialer EIGHTH GRADE ACTIVITIES ' There have been three events of interest in the Eighth Grades life this year. Event number one was jackie I-Iewitt's Halloween dance at the Maketewah Country Club. Event number two was Polly Keckls birthday luncheon at the Queen City Club followed by the seeing of the murder movie Laura g everyf one hada swell time. The last event so far during the school year was Libby Lloyd's birthday dinner two days after Christmas. But knowing the Eighth Grade, I am sure there are more good times ahead.
