H. S. I wouldn t exchange the past four year foi anything, neither would 1 want to repeat them. My saddest experience during these years was coming back my Junior year minus Kav Norton. One of my nicest experiences was being chosen as a delegate to Girls’ State, and my greatest will be graduation. My dislikes are few. Among them are winter, hill-billy music, and artificiality. Some of my likes are music—both classical and popular, swimming and boating. My favorite color is green; favorite foods are numerous. 1 like people who are honest, natural, and interesting. My ambition is to be a success in the secretarial field and to plan and decorate my own home.

After iniation we were considered a part of the high school and we went out to get all we could out of it both in studies and in social activities. 1 think 1 enjoyed basketball more than any other activity during these years. We were supposed to learn sportsmanship, co-operation and co-ordination between mind and body which I think most of us did. My likes are very numerous including sundaes, food in general, most sports, dancing, swimming, boating and good movies. I am planning to enter nurses’ training this September at the Cambridge Hospital, Cambridge, Mass. Many from our class are entering this field which is growing due to the needs of our country.

This happened my first year in high and it’s one of the times I won’t forget because many things happened after we found out that we had won first prize. My favorite hobbies are collecting small novelties of all kinds and baby pictures. Faorvite sports are basketball, baseball, football and horse racing. I dislike mushrooms and people who brag' and talk too much. I like to dance and have a good time with a group my own age. Two people I like the most in the world are my Mom and Dad; as for the third one I haven’t made up my mind to that as yet. It’s either a certain Sailor or a certain Marine! My ambition is to work in the Navy Department in Washington or to settle down to the peaceful and quite life of a housewife. My favorite music is popular songs by Dick Haynes or Bing Crosby and I like the Navy Bard. My four years in high school I believe will be the best times of my life and I shall never forget them.
