 Helen Hamilton (Arlene Stewart) One afternoon this reporter gallivanted to Helen with an idea of interviewing her. Vihen I readied her house she was in the midst of preparations for going away which of course was something uftusual. Anyhow aa she was getting ready Helen spoke about her high school days and how she felt about being senior. Well, I feel more grown up and a bit uncertain about my future since ray carefree days are over, said Helen. During my high school days, I've en- joyed many activities. I was secretary and treasurer of the Sophomore Class, cheer leader, member of the Glee Club and of the Band—drum majorette. I've served on party committees; I have served cocoa and doughnut at ball games; I have managed movies. I was advertising man- ager of the year book; on the dance committee. I served on the hot lunch committee;I have taken part in assembly prog- rams. I think my school days were busy ones! On being asked if she'd had any fun in high school Helen recalled a freshman party that had taken place in the gymnas- ium. Great fun! Then, con- tinued Helen, another party was held during my sophomore year. We danced at that party and had refreshments. During my junior year we had a dunce in the gym with Shaw's orches- in the gym with Shaw's orches- tra. Our profit was $13.40... Oh, yes, laughed Helen Each year it is the custom of the Junior Class to entertain the Senior Class. Last year we vlid things up in good style for we had a banquet put on by the Ladies' Aid followed by a trip to a movie in Watertown. This year wo were entertained by the Junior Class who took us to the movies and to supper at 'forgin's, she said. Nov I have done everything but make my will. I want to will my love for dancing to E v e 1 yn Vock; my ability to get along with the male population to Mary Manning; my liking for bookkeeping to Rosen'y Cheese- nan and I will each of my ex- cuse blanks to Art Jones. Helen rushed away with her usual flurry and left this re- porter with a conviction as to why gentlemen prefer blondes!!

a Phillip Shuvtloff (Varna Kingston) Phillip Shurtleff, the only fellow In the class of '43 has gone to work on the farm for the duration. Your reporter vn.ll let you in on Phil's past present and future with a few quotations from the topic him- self. He's short, being but a mere five feet two. He has brown hair and the habit of wearing the best looking sweaters! His blue eyes gather a faint glint in English class even at the slightest mention of a project for Ag. In History C class he always has a run of good ans- wers. To know Phillip is to meet (not in person, mind you) almost any United States sen- ator. In the future, you'll surely see him operating his modem, scientific farm with all extra gadgets. Large fancy signs will be noticed on the build- ings and fences. He learned this from making signs for the senior dances and parties. Oh yes! Inside will be waiting a beautiful co-od from Cornell U. He'll meet her in his sen- ior year according to the cel- estial bodies. During high school training Phillip has been basket ball manager, president of the Sen- ior Class, lead in the senior play, Old Snoopy as well as other plays, and an active member of the 4-H and F. F. A. He has been chosen several times to go to other towns to judge animals. (Here's hoping he picks a wife as well as he picks piglets!) I like being a senior, says Phil, but I hate being over-run by a bunch of convin- cing females. Poor Phil! It is the truth. As the senior year draws to a close I wish to leave sever- al things to the remaining pu- pils. To Bob Hicks goes my job as basketball manager; to Jim Vock ny rides to Redwood. You, Charles Stewart, nay have my figure. To Sonny Young goes my seat during the basketball games of '44. To Barney goes my arguments with Verna and I guess that's all......
