RECREATION TOOK ITS FAIR SHARE No ball game would be complete without a dance. When we weren ' t cutting the rug, we met our friends and talked over the exciting happenings of the game. The water cooler, parting gift of the class of ' 51, was a welcome addition to S. H. S.; for now we always had cool, clear water to soothe our parched throats. The pause that refreshed. ' 13

NOT ALL OUR DAY WAS CLAIMED BY TOIL The wise use of leisure time was one of the most important lessons to be learned in high school. Since our tastes and interests varied, we sampled the many forms of rec- reation which Shields High provided. Some of us found a satisfaction in help- ing edit the school publications; some found pleasure in club activities. Others felt the thrill of achievement in athletics. Many could not participate in these forms of rec- reation. There were some to which all of us could give our heartiest support: backing our school and team at pep sessions, learn- ing to dance at all-school dances, and read- ing and browsing in the library. Above all else we treasured the ac- quaintances we had made, which through happy years had deepened into lasting friendships. Lessons learned from our fel- low classmates and teachers will give us greater inspiration and more happy mem- ories than any other part of our school life. Friendships have been made on a kind of bed rock. Nothing can ever part us. With a few minutes to spare, Judith Hennessy turns toward the magazine rack in the library. 12
