Qbam adm mm U Ninety-seven Juniors made the first step toward building a house of all the events and memories of one year by electing Marion Walsh, president, to break ground for the House of lunior Activities. Supported by foremen: Patricia Brennan, Peggy Kraft, and Mary Smith, the loyal crew rent the air with a rousing Swing it, when the cornerstone by way of the first class meeting was firmly laid. Immediately positions were eagerly stepped into, each one of which pre- sented difficulties and problems for the builders to solve. Enthusiastically the crew began excavating by scraping up large returns for the Scholas- tican subscription drive, which went toward the next important move of laying a solid foundation. They laid one never to fall nor crumble, the Diamond lubilee party in November, unanimously pronounced tops. To enjoy the stimulation of competition cmd to make themselves more fit for their daily tasks, several of the more muscular crew members joined in the exciting inter-guild athletic tournaments held throughout the year. Others interested in promoting the cause of industry spent much time in panel discussions and debates on such topics as social insurance, labor unions, and minimum wage. The more literary-minded artisans delved deeply into the intricacies of verse and fiction composition, while those artistically inclined spent their spare time mastering the fundamentals of sketching and designing. Riveters talented in dramatics presented The Rivals, in Novernberp Thursdays at Home, in March: and Beauty and the Beast, in May. Gleaming boards contributed throughout the year in the form of dances, games, or other good times finally completed the smooth, sturdy floor, of which one of the glossiest planks was the Hallowe'en party in October, when ghosts haunted the rising house, corpses came to life, and chains clanked eerily underground. The new floor was formally opened to the public at the time of the Senior annual party, luniors having put every nut, rivet, and bolt to advantage through the selling of tickets. Undaunted by the sharp winds of the holiday season, the craftsmen put all their energy into preparing baskets for poor families and performing other deeds of comradeship and love that served to build four walls strong enough to weather all storms. Shining windows were inserted in the way of what each gained during the annual retreat in lanuary. March, April, and May witnessed several periods of time out, including the traditional Hair-Bow Day on the third day of the third month of the third year, sponsored by Room 1121 the famous Easter Egg Hunt, at which Rooms 103 and 105 were hostessesp Play Day, and the class picnic when Haill hail! the gang's all here rose from ninety-seven lusty throats, as the crew set out for a well-earned day's recreation. A sturdy roof completed the house, at the lunior-Senior Banquet in May, with every beam a friend, every board a good time, every shingle a memory. We Swung It! in their hearts, the Iuniors tossed their tools aside for another year, regarding fondly The House the luniors Built. We ,ywkllllzf 36'
