X l935 f X fSMlTl-lONlAN Junior Class After lying in dock for three months while repair workg was being clone, the Ir. ship of pirates sailed out into the bay to slip into position alongside the Sr. Craft at the head of the fleet. Fall winds that wafted varicolored leaves to their doom billowed the newly hoisted sails. As the leaves willingly flutter to the ground to enrich the soil, so we on board the Jr. vessel settled down to win honor for the Armada. All valuable booty of former years we stored into the hold and prepared room for a new cargo ofspoils. The first prizes we secured were sea-miss, lary J. Miller and seaman, Glenn l-l. Roberts, both of whom we promptly decorated with pennants from the Crimson and Gold banner flying above the mast. After walking the plank, they readily ffl took the jr. pirates' oath of Hdelity, What we are to he we are now becoming, and became Co-Captains of the good ship. Gubernatrix Ethel Rickey, distinguished in years of service, captured the office of first mate. lt is she who sees to it that Captains' orders are carried out to a letter. Pirate Helen Krocta, weilding the pen as forcefully as the Cutlass, was appointed to record all plundering expeditions and Councils of war. To Pirate Carl Edwards was assigned the duty of counting out the gold and silver and placing it in the strong-hold. All others are members of the Crewg we carry no de luxe passengers. With much gusto we went about our business. When ships congregated to participate in the naval festivals, our crimson and gold lads and lassies ex- changed their ruddy sou'westers for ones of black and sallied forth to uphold the black and gold insignia of the fleet as a whole. Seven of our forty four mariners are with the Tritons in performing upon musical instruments. Two of our most illustrious maidens of the wave found eminencetin such a way as to make Demosthenes look like a one mastetl cat boat beside a full rigged merchant ship when compared to them. Our heaps of treasure daily increased in size. But then came disaster. One dark night, when the moon strove vainly to pierce the murky clouds and il- lumine the placid sea, while the starboard watch was unaware and the man on port asleep, the ship was raided by pirates of hostile intent. Having surrep- titiously misai ropriated our hard earned silver, they swiftly sped over the waves that sobfged mournfully with each splash of the sinful oars, Undaunted, however, we continued to plan our drawing room presentation of theatrical talent. With beautiful hued patches gathered from all parts of the globe we wove a net to enmesh the hearts of our friends. To Senior pirates, as their voyage draws to a close, we pay last tokens of affections in sumptous banquet. We shall miss their good-fellowship, but, holding Lluty's course, shall do our utmost in giving justice to memory of them. And now as the sun glows red against the westei'n horizon, and a peaceful 'quiet descends to a sea weary of tossiug its waves, let us say 'Aufwiedersehnu until another voyaging season unites us as Seniors to the fleet of Smithfield Bay.
