The Junior Prom and the writing of those Junior ssays were 'bonh highlights of our school year. We have worked hard and tried our best to ain-tain Sewickley's standards and to be a clas of which our school can be proud. Certainl' we will always remember this year as one -f the best. There were J ,nior stars on the basketball, football, chess, and track teams. The All- School Play as well as the Glee Club, Band, and Orchestra have used our talent to good ad- vantage, The whole class is grateful to the girls who did such a marvelous job selling candy and cokes at all the football and basket- ball games and in between times. Candy selling became a daily operation. We 'have had our problems mixed with fun. but we managed to take 'them in our stride. Many thanks to our homeroom teachers, Miss Andrews.

During the course of the evening Charles Polizotto and Lee Springer two famous Metropolitan Opera stars, were called upon to entertain us. They sang the love song from the stirring opera, Singfreak, composed by Dolores Cassidy. Their faithful agent is Shirley Sittig. About 10:00 I received a telegram from Professor Wally Walters of the University of Egypt, regretting that 'he could not attend the gathering. I also received a cablegram from the USS Kaput named for Reinhart Kaput for his success as Government Mediator, and own.- ed by the Merriman Steamship Lines. The message was from Peggy Gilbert, and she also regretted that the ship would not arrive in time to allow her to attend the banquet. Ethel Cannister arrived late in the evening. with her assistants, Helen Goray and Fay Henning, from New York, where she has been making arrangements for her Child Wel- fare Clinic. David Starr, the president of the Starr Bot- tling Company, furnished the soft drinks for the party. Promptly at 10:30, the group was royally entertained by Phil Schuette's talking dog act. A momentous event furnished the proper ending for the night's festivities. An aerogram was received from a Robinson Rocket Ship which was on its way to the moon. This great ship was piloted by 'Captain Ray Al- burger. The aerogram was sent and signed by Jean and Mary Irvin, sister hostesses on the Rocket Lines. They regretted that their journey to the moon prevented them from attending the party in my honor. Dear Diary, as I linish writing this I won- der if I will ever have occasion to meet any of my 1948 students again. I am sure they will all proceed along in their established pro- fessions. Good night. Joe Weber, Charles Reiser, Emily Beitel, Marianne Neely Twenty-seven
