The Major General hears all tl'e noise going on and the only way he can get the pirates to let his wards go, is to work upon their sympathies by telling them that he is an orphan. During the following days though, the Maior Gen- eral sits and broods because ot the lie he told the pirates but he is consoled by the wards' sympathy and also by Frederic's plan to call the police. In the meantime, Frederic sees the Pirate King and Ruth at the window and they tell Frederic that his indentures were to run until his twenty-first birthday, and since he was born on February 29, he has only had tive birthdays. So Frederic ioins the pirates again and tells them about the police. The pirates then seize and bind the Major General. The police come and tell the pirates to yield in Queen Victoria's name, which they do. Ruth pleads with the police and tells them that the pirates are all noble- men who have gone wrong. The pi- rates are then set free and are permitted to marry the Maior General's wards. it '15 Kl:W2FFW'A w!

5,f95f.,, au May 5th was a day our class will never forget. We were determined that nothing, not even the steady rain that kept up all day, would keep us away from that annual trip made by all iuniors. And so, on that gloomy spring morning, our little troup of high-spirited iuniors headed for the battle- ground.

After the electrical demonstration we emptied our pocketbooks buying souvenirs and refresh- ments. Discouraged by the rain-soaked appearance of the picnic tables we ate our picnic lunches amid the dry in- teriors of our buses. We began our tour again after lunch and, in spite of the rain, cameras still kept clicking. With the aid of a guide the Battle of Gettysburg was explained in detail. Finally, but all too soon, our fun came to an end. We were a battle weary, rain-soaked bunch, but we did manage to realize that this da had add d h high school lives. y e anot er chapter in our 60
