SEHIDR GLASS HISTDRY ln the year of I946, seventy-eight inexperienced Freshmen started out on a voyage Through high school. Since we were only beginners we had to stay below deck. Dur- ing our stay there a party was given in our honor by the deck swabs, the Sophomores. We were taken through a tunnel where chains were rattling and darkness prevailed. Our faces were sprayed with water and tickled with feathers. This was an initiation rite for us poor Freshmen. For beginners it did not take us long to learn what was ex- pected of us in high school. At the start of our second year, seventy of us returned to continue our voyage. Our ring sizes were taken for our class rings during the first part of the year. We were quite athletic in our Sophomore year. The Sophomore girls won first in the bas- ketball tournament and second in volleyball. Five of our Sophomore boys went out for basketball and one of them made the first team. Then came our Junior year. We got a faint glimpse of the upper deck but still needed to acquire a lot of knowledge. Our biggest problem was deciding how to raise money to entertain the Seniors at the spring banquet and prom. We gave a play, My Wife's Family, to help raise money. Selling candy was another one of our pro- jects from which we obtained money. To prove that we were not superstitious we held our banquet and prom on Friday, May I3. The banquet, which was a rainbow theme was held at the Kankakee Valley Country Club. A string trio from Olivet College fur- nished the dinner music. After the banquet some of the guests returned to the gym- nasium for the prom which was a garden scene. They danced to the music of Chuck Granger and his Downbeats. The rest went to a movie in Kankakee. We finally reached the top deck and became the sophisticated Seniors. There were only fifty-two of us left to carry on our last year's voyage. This was one of our busiest years. After having to be content with second prize for three years we finally succeed- ed in decorating a homecoming float that was rated first by the iudges. Next we had our Senior pictures taken and our announcements ordered. As our parting gift to the school we gave a bicycle rock. Also, one of the main attractions of the year was the Senior play, We Shook the Family Tree. Now we are looking ahead to Baccalaureate and Commencement. We hope all this has prepared us for the big voyage that is ahead of us.
