Our commercial team was composed by Dorothy Getz, Esther Connell, Marian Bolllger, Norma Jean Hoffman, and Duane Hild. Last Tuesday evening, May Sixteenth, we were very pleasantly entertained by the Juniors at the University Club at Peoria, and after a lovely program we were all taken to the Palace Theater, where we saw The Life Of Alexander Graham Bell . We wish to acknowledge our appreciation to the Juniors for this very lovely banquet. We have yet to look forward to such events as the Baccalaureate and Commencement Exercises which are to be held on Ma$ twenty-first and May twenty- seventh, respectively. It Is with heavy hearts that we bid a tearful farewell to dear old Alma Mater. We will hold in our hearts many beautiful memories of our high school days here together. I take this opportunity to thank all of pur faculty for the wonderful cooperation they have shown us during our four years in high school. FAREWELL ! •!
