About being quiet, we've been sitting patiently way up on top of this doorway for nearly thirty-tive years. That's a long time to be in one place. And we've watched thousands of students come and go beneath us, twice a day, tive days a week, nine months a year. They've been active, busy, happy: while all we could do was sit quietly and watch them. And now at long last we've been set tree! The class ot '48 has given us the power to come down and look around. Perhaps we'd better introduce ourselves. We're known as Herk and Ike, or socially-by our gargoyle names-as Hercules and I. Q. We're two of the most excited gargoyles you ever saw, because now that the graduating class of 1948, by the magic wand of its successes and achievements, has brought us down from our dull, stiff places on the door, we can satisfy our curiosity about something.

On inspection, we find that most of these boxes are neatly arranged on the inside. We're told that's because of the regular locker clean-ups sponsored by the Stu- dent Council. The center of activity seems to be the big bulletin board in the main corridor, which serves as a place both for important notices and for boy-and-girl rendezvous. x t - Lett to right: Shirley Anthony, Io- anne Bengston, Mary Lane Ellis.
