They're the reason for a new study hall and for a new teacher, Miss Stewart, who's become one of their good friends, in fact, so good a friend that every weekend, a few girls can be found at her apartment, talking over the week's events. Everyone has heard and been baffled by the curious nicknames to which some mem- bers of this class respond. Among these are Shark, Egghead, Q, Liz-a-gator, and Worm, This class, with the eighth grade, did a fine job in their play, The Steadfast Tin Sol- dier, and they were quick to find the egg in the Easter hunt. ln student government, unlike shyer classes, they are practically outspoken and their ideas are good. We all know of their fine skiers who schus it on both nearby and faraway hills, such as Lutsen and Telemark, and every modern dance class has heard of this class's tumbling ability. They all practice basketball or tennis shots at noon and they can hardly wait until field hockey in the fall. Socially, this class is very busy. They go to dancing school, but when it comes to parties, some of them still prefer to have them without the boys. It seems that this class is going pIacesf' in more ways than one, for they have produced many oddities of locomotion lately. One of the strangest vehicles ever to appear in the Goodrich Avenue vicinity was the homemade bicycle-built- for-Emmy-and-Twinkie which wove unsteadily to and from school this fall. Several members of this class were seen chugging their way through the school in train fashion, and on Hallowe'en, at least twelve of them appeared under the skin of a large white whale with a gaping maw and many blow holes Csquirt guns, we know from direct contactli. The same evening we all went into fits of laugher when the entire class pinned paper waves on the seats of their pants to become a windy ocean. No one is worried that this class will become too studious or that it will miss out on any fun.

After being summoned mysteriously to the living room one day, the seniors learned that a strange epidemic had spread through the school, and in order not to be exposed they were to be evacuated at once. They were herded into faculty cars and driven to Bonnie's for the traditional Faculty-Senior picnic. They played football with the faculty and ate fried chicken, and Bonnie took movies of the antics. At twoi o'cIock, after being driven back to school to complete the day's work, they were in no mood for studies. As retaliation for the dreadful scare given them, the seniors commanded that the faculty attend a party in return a few Saturdays later. They escorted their facultyl hostages to Midge's farm.
