Diary nf the junior 611155 As l look back over the year, '46-'f'l7, l can readily see that it has been the happiest in my high school life. lr was wonderful working with co-operative girls who had original ideas and a spirit for activity. We started the year with money problems just as any other class, but we soon solved them after the first month of selling. The whole-hearted co-operation of every student spelled success. The first party of the year was planned for Thanksgiving. Generous contribu- tions were made in the way of food and delicacies. The table was a pretty picture. ln the Tidings Campaign, Villa Cabrini ranked third in group five. Shirley Benz represented the school and received the award presented by the Archbishop to our Alma Mater. November quickly whizzed by and Christmas presents were discussed. A spirit of secrecy and fun hovered over room three when gayly colored packages were locked away in the cabinet. Presents were exchanged within the class and everyone was cheerful and happy. Lent found us thinking about missionaries, and a decision turned into a fulfilled promise: to ransom a pagan baby for every month in the year. l remember well, the contented feeling I had every time l entered our homeroom and caught a smile from Our Lady of the Missions, with our twelve little pagan babies sheltered under her mantle of blue. The year drew quickly to an end and the insinuation, 'ifuture seniorsf' made us sense great responsibilities. Sweaters and emblems were reviewed, discussed and approved -V-all but pur- chased. One topic we did agree upon is the memorial we shall leave the Villa . . . Curious? You'll seel The raffling of the corde bag made by Mrs. P. Benz was intended for this purpose. For Book Week the class put on 4'Library Fantasyw and purchased six books. Later, the juniors earned 3860.00 and made another contribution to the library. 442
