Cousie, Robin, and Margie. This year, Brenaman, the Teddy Roosevelt of our class, launched a reform program with Miss Chreitzberg's hearty approval. Of course, in spite of soap boxes, etc. nothing came of it. This was our big year when it came to the May Festival. We gave a circus, which due to the acting ability of Martha, the Lion, Dare, the Snake-charmer, and the Twins, Siamese, was a howling success. Our interests were beginning to change in this phase of our lives, -we were be- coming adolescents. Every morning a group of bicycles could be seen blocking the road. If you looked hard enough you Nails joined our ranks. For the first time the day girls were outnumbered by the boarders, a new experience. Blissie as our class president Qwith the help of Miss Rufhnl .pulled us out of the many holes in which we found ourselves. After much petition, considering the fact that most of us wanted to enter V. M. I., we drilled in martial manner once a week with Mr. Cottrell, until we became too much for him. Also in prepara- tion for our military career we followed Caesar's campaigns and learned the construction of bridges with Miss West. Upon entrance to the upper study hall we were confronted as would see that the riders were not all girls! with eleven cannibals: Tete, Bobby, Wincie, Mary, Joan, Edie, of Still adolescents, but not daring to consider ourselves thus, Tommy, Sally, Ginia, Kathryn, and Pattie. Dede, McGee and we became the seniors of the Middle School. Our only two Pit were our class officers. They accomplished hard jobs well. 1 new members were Blimp and Lyn. We were all very excited We toiled enthusiastically over our junior-Senior Banquet, the , at having a boarder, Lyn, in our class. She was elected League theme of which was Toyland, and were proud of the results., if representative. For the second year our main dread was the Foxy was the toastmistress and managed the evening with :avoir 5. weekly recitation of poetry to Miss Hood. Our main delight faire. Without Miss Franz' valuable aid it never would have was the class in which we chanted French lyrics with Miss been such a success. We all found the junior year the most Davidson. Poor patient Miss Davidson! We always chose her difficult one and were swamped with work. Our grades were class to exercise our lungs loudly on Don't Sit Under the especially important now that we were beginning to think about' Apple Tree, and to play commands which consisted of college. On the second of june we sat at Richmond College ' throwing books into -the air, removing our skirts and shoes, trying desperately to remember everything we knew in order to and turning the light on and off, The main attraction in the pass the College Boards. Commencement was beautiful and dramatic department was a radio show we gave, Em being the relieving. We wore long pastel dresses and received the daisy announcer. chain from the departing seniors. The morning we all assembled for our hrst day as big girls After .twelve long years of toilf!!J it really was fun being a in the Upper School, we were petrified and bewildered at the senior. Authority went to our heads. Our newcomers this year labyrinth of corridors and numerous small cubicles. The only were Kenny, Eleanor, Toni and Ellen. Dede did a marvelous day girl to add herself to our forces was Mary Terry, and noble job as head of Student Government, as did Pit, the president of she was. There were boarders galore--Foxie, Peg Compton, our class. This year we were all very excited when the boarders Brookie, Preston, Linda, Meg, Duer, Dede, and Lewis O'Brien, were given the privilege of wearing lipstick. ln the late fall This year we really buckled down to work for the first time we gave an informal dance sponsored by the Quair and the in our lives. We were very much impressed by the Student Day School. Everyone had a bang-up time and congratulations Government, and Cousie, Meg, and Blissie represented us on were in order for Barb and Charlotte who did such a grand job the council very well. We were all stunned by our new French organizing it. Our senior play was 'TPeter Pan. Eleanor as teacher, Mademoiselle Argenot fflllonr, allonrl, with whom Peter, Sidney as Wendy, Foxy as Captain Hook, and Vogel as we chantedfmore advanced French lyrics. Miss Gray, as our Nana all portrayed their characters like seasoned troopers. J class teacher, did her best to try to control us, which was'all anyone could do. Once a week we cut capers in the old gym with Mrs. Leib to the tune of Strauss waltzes. The next year we became setters of examples in the lower study hall. Betty Anderson, Blaney, Bowmall, Petie, Lou, Susan, Dot Gitch, Lucy, McGee, Mimi, Bonnie, Shober, Barbara, Tillett, Vogel, Marie, Betty Lambdin, Willy, Randy, and Bram, Bravo! Our dance was a grand success, the -theme being Symphony. The gym was decorated in pink, white and blue. Blissie and McGee looked lovely leading the hgure. We were all sorry that Bob couldn't be here, but at least Mac made it! As glad as we are to graduate we're sincerely sorry to be leaving St. Catherines.
