to the juke box at the Sophomore Canteen. This month found the Sharon quintet busily engaged. We edged out Colerain by one point, but then sufferdd defeat at the hands of Loveland S5 ro h8, Glendale 6O to M3, Sycamore 76 to M9, Madeira 98 to 66, Seven Mile 76 to 23. FEBRUARY Valentine's Dav. Washington's Birthday, and more basketball games! Thin85 didn't look too bright after being beaten by Taylor 35 to h9, Harrison, h? tc 39, and Milford S8 to hh, but Sharon came through in the Hamilton County Tournament to beat Colerain by six points, only to be beaten by Madeira the following week. For the tournament the Sharon Gym was filled with capacity crowds, who saw Ter- race Park come out as the top county team. To everyone's tearful regret school was closed for several days because of the big snow. Due to the inclement weather, the Senior Scholarship tests at Madeira and the Junior Chicken Supper had to be postponed, but things turned out sucessfully, and everyone was satisfied to see another month slip by. MARCH Comes in like a lion and goes out like a lamb. The Seniors almost chopped up the lamb to serve at their Ham Supper. Each day brought them a little closer to their trip and new worries on how to earn the money. The next project they sponsored was the St. Patrick's Day Dance. Again George Kasper's sweet music filled the gymnasium. Gene Chalk, who left school to become a jockey, was entertained at a going-away party, given by his fellow classmates. A wonderful Easter vacation, especially for some Senior boys who left for the Smokies on March 29. APRIL Spring is really here. The days seem actually to fly by and everything is happening at once. It's one, two, three strikes, and OUCS mOF6 you're out at the old ball game..But what seems to occupy everyone's mind is the Junior Senior Prom on April 21. The rustle of grass skirts trans- ports us to a beautiful Hiawiian Island. We dance to the music of George Kasper's Orchestra and are entranced by this lovely tropical atmosphere. April 29 and the Seniors are at last on their way to Washington. MAY May S, and the Seniors are home again after their glorious and exciting week in Washington and New York, The baseball season comes to a close with the tournament on May lO. Sport fans now turn to the track meet for entertain- ment. Of special interest is the big Girls 8 Boys Field Meet at Carthage Fair on May 2, and the Boys' Meets at West- ern Hills on May 8 and 9. A busioad of studends really enjoyed the trip to the Spring Football Game at Ohio State University on.May ll. May 18 will always be rememberedfor the Senior Class Play, The Strange House. JUNE Only yesterday seems like it was the first of Sept. tember, and now it's the third of June and the evening of Baccalaureate services. Monday and Tuesday are past Cand may those be my last examsLO June lOl For twelve long years the Seniors have looked forward to this day, but now they regret to see it go, for this day, as we step through the portals of high school, marks the Commencement of a new life 37
