KIMTAH Kimtah means memories, memories of high school days. To the class of 1948 this annual brings remem- brances of their senior year, the climax of three years of study and fun. They will remember the recognition and honor of being seniors and the time-honored symbols of that year, senior pins and senior balcony. The graduates won't forget the excitement the day they bought their pins and the few weeks fol- lowing when they wore them constantly. Nor will they forget that feeling of pride and superiority when the underclassmen looked at the pins with envy and longing for the day when they would be entitled to wear one. Even more of a tradition is senior balcony. In May of 1947, the juniors eagerly awaited Senior White Day and the Senior Assembly, when they would take overl' the balcony. In September they looked forward to assemblies with the same anticipa- tion, and throughout the year they hurried up the ramps to try to get a seat in the front row. From their high place the seniors looked down upon the rest of the students in the assembly and smiled hap- pily as those below looked to them with admiration and respect. Yet each time they sat in the balcony they were saddened by the thought that these people sitting around them were their classmates whom they might never see again after june. They thought, too, of what a short time it would be until they would be gone and forgotten and new seniors would be in their places. The graduates will forever have pleasant memo- ries of that last unequalled year before they passed through the gateways of high school for the last time.
