SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Many of the Seniors, who have gone through school together, remember well Mary Alice Shannon's birthday party, which was given at the Elk's Fort Harrison Country Club. At that time we were kindergarteners in Harrison School. Looking ahead about five years, we can still remember the dog show, which we sponsored as sixth graders. The following year we presented an Amateur Hour, as a part of the All School Festival. I am sure we shall never forget Diana Sweeney's rendition of Ferdinand the Bull. In the Eighth Grade, we surprised the school by presenting an original Quiz Show in Con- vocation to commemorate George Washington's birthday. Small hatchets, made by the boys, were given as prizes. The graduating class of 1944 started its high school days with a clever presentation of Julius Caesar. The play was directed by Miss Eleanor Dunlap, who taught the Fresh- man class in English. No doubt the whole school remembers well this drama, which, much to the horror of Miss Dunlap, turned into a side-splitting comedy of clanking ar- mor and flashing swords As has been traditional in the Sophomore year, we gave the annual skating party. The party was held at the Third Avenue Skating Rink, and a large crowd attended. In our Junior year, we peddled cookies about the halls of dear old State, in order to raise money to finance the Junior Prom. The Seniors and Juniors together gave a dance, combining the Prom and Farewell. The dance was held in the Mayflower Room and was a great success. Finally, at long last, we are Seniors. It is hard for most of us to believe, especially the teachers. We started the year with a mixer, which, I'm sorry to say, wasn't what you would call a huge success, due to the fact that it was a little difficult to hear the music, which was flowing, not-so-sweetly, from the balcony of the girls' gym. Early in November, we started working on the Senior Carnival, which was presented on Decem- ber the fourth. Under the splendid leadership of the committee chairmen, the Carnival was a great success. The stage show was the outstanding feature of the Carnival. In fact, if I may boast ever so slightly, it was said to have been one of the best stage shows ever presented. In January, the Analyst Staff began the job of getting the year book ready to go to press. The sales drive was very successful. Commencement was quiet, solemn and somewhat sentimental. The presentation of the diplomas climaxed four wonderful and happy high school years.
