dw glam ygubm Oh, they went tripping back to school, back to school, back to school. How they went tripping back to school so early in September! Yes, they were glad to get back: and absolutely thrilled to be in the rush and whirl of their graduate year, these Seniors, the idols of the Freshmen and models for the underclassmen. Two whole senior rooms from which to choose! What a fuss there was as to who would be where! Hurried huddles and frantic pleadings at last ended in the graduates being comparatively settled-at least for four months. Flash! Flash! Blackhawks took warning, when for the third consecutive year the class of '37 seized the hockey championship from their strongly- resisting opponents, the class of '38. Do you like this? Oh, that black one is darling. No, I like the red stone. Eighty-four opinions, varied and firm, finally came to an agreement. Result: A standard blue-spinel school ring of which the thirty-seveners were the proud first-wearers. Any pennies? Got any pennies? A penr1y's a vote in the song contest. And who should win but the celebrated '37 songster, Mary lane Boehme. Came the night of the fated Hallowe'en revels, when the grads invited ghosts and goblins to help entertain terrified underclassmen. Two cans of beans, a bunch of --. Anxious philanthropists were seen dashing about, packing vegetables, dolls, slabs of bacon, and shoes into baskets, which were delivered in the name of the Christ-Child, two days before His birthday. January-and an unprecedented air of quiet reigned throughout the school, even in the cafeteria, usually a hubbub of chatter and laughter. The Seniors were really being the examples they were supposed to have been all year. The best retreat we've ever made, they unanimously declared. Turn a little to the right. That's fine. Chin up: eyes toward the camera, please. And one more grad commenced to Worry whether her pictures would tum out all right. April showers? My, yes! Showers of multi-colored blossoms and gay enter- tainment at the Seniors' spring party for the luniors, and deluges of thrills and fun at the annual gala dance and card party, when Seniors, as well as the rest of the school, frolicked with the exuberance that betokens spring fervor. May, too, brought its profusion of good times, starting with the initiation and get-together staged by the alumnae members, and climaxed with the gorgeous farewell banquet, given by the class of '38. Back to the simple life romped the erstwhile-sophisticated Seniors, when in lune they presented the class play, Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm. A A A Having satisfactorily completed lf' The grand finale had arrived, and eighty-four very serious young ladies, clad in white caps and gowns, solemnly received the white-bound document which certified Alma Mater's approbation of their four years of work at Saint Scholastica High School. cffdzrfy 32141.36 25,4 37
