Wouldn’t It Be Funny If . . . Helen Taylor became a “hula” dancer. Doris Kcrwood should be a second Simone Simon. Vernon Manes were a bald-headed professor. Mary Elizabeth Williams became a chorus girl in the Big Broadcast of 1950. Charles Black became a second Don Ameche. Gerald would come to school to see Miss McKeehan (and for us to see him). The Freshmen did not have at least one theme a week. Betty Brown did not get the lead in the operetta. Mr. Elam should bring a girl friend to Warrcnsburg (or even to Decatur). Freshmen and sophomores gave class plays instead of the juniors and seniors.
