Within the beloved Wills of our A Jim Mater, that stately edifice which overlooks the greater number of our homes, there flourishes a life quite as colorful and unique as any three-ring circus the RmgJing Bros, ever conceived. And, best of all, no admission is charged to bar the curious wanderer from this merry-go-round of classes, activities, and sports. Under our big top the main attraction is, of course, the senior class with its veteran performers of the sawdust Those mirth provoking clowns, the junior members of the troupe, are to be found here too, as always, cutting their many capers. We also have our own menagerie, the sophomores, where wolves and monkeys confront us in numbers; and even the rarer species of the order of Mammalia are not lacking. In the side show tents of this, our little three-ring wonder, alluring charmers, fat women, giants, and midgets mingle in profusion to the confusion of the casual observer. We hope that our pictorial review, in our 1948 West-O-Ranger, of this great, yet diminutive spectacle will be enjoyed by all and will, in the far future, keep fresh in the memories of each of us the happy days spent in West Orange High. ff
