! ' ration for our party is it any wonder that we could nor wait to hear what our big sisters would say! And so the year passed. Here we were Sophomores and soon conducting private air raids with the help of those ever-obedi- ent freshmen. How gay, treating the whole school to the pleasant odor of shrimp when Bobbie ' s keg full arrived from home. This year our big sisters were walking in a Winter Wonderland and then before we knew it, it was time to learn the Whoop- ' em-up songs we ' ll never forget the thrill of Dreams and the knowledge of true deep friendship. Our Sopho- more year came to a close with I ' m a Daisy, Hail, Dear Old Shorter, and the sadness that comes with parting. Juniors, and big sisters with Holly to lead us, this was the year of tradition-breaking and making for the Junior class crowned Sally as Carnival Queen the Whoop- ' em-up wedding became instead a cere- mony in which the Juniors and Freshmen united their hearts and minds in loyalty to Shorter, genera- tion, and class. No little sisters ever did a better job than ours on their Mardi Gras. This was also the year of Shorter ' s first big dance and open house. Cupid was working overtime, too, with Mimi, Holly, and Martha as targets With the election of Ruth, Virginia, and Rita to lead the student body next year, we began to realize -what was in store. Seniors need we say more? With Eloyse at the wheel we got down to work and ended up with Ellen as Co-Queen of the Carnival and the volley- ball cup to show that we took a little exercise on the side. Our cabin trips, Senior coffees, the dances, and the wonderful party our little sisters gave helped to make our year one of the happiest. But the highspot came when we ignored comprehensives and spent our spring vacation on the sands of Daytona. Graduation and farewell but in our hearts we made a promise to forever cherish the friends, the memories, and the ideals that Shorter has given to the class of ' 48. SAD SACKS HOLLY AND BILL

Rushing! And we do mean rush- ing a few topsy-turvy, jam-packed days ending in a flurry of red, white, and green, and green and green and the last mad dash to the border. Then classes ah, boredom! But not for long. The Sophomores and sore muscles kept us from a dull existence for a week. Soon Bobbie for president and getting our ban- ner the Whoop- ' em-up wedding we were really a full-pledged class and how proud we were! We thought we were something building teepees all over the school and cutting down half the forest in prepa- ' -. -- at On obi cu-b ti spring wane forever d
