55716 Senior Diargf Dear Diary: June, 1945-Looking back over the school year, I can remember when I and about 178 other boys and girls timidly UQ entered the W. H. S. auditorium to become members of the Freshman class. It seemed odd having to change classes and teachers every forty-five minutes. It gave us a little breathing spell, though, and helped to detract from the monotony. It also gave us time to talk, and by the time we arrived at our next class we were deep in a discussion from which it took the teacher about five minutes to divert our attention. Of course, this five minutes was necessarily deducted from the reciting period which didn't bother us at all-unless we were told to make up the time at noon, in which case we weren't quite so happy. However, the hardest thing to get used to was homework. It seemed that in September we were smothered under a load of books and stayed that way for the next thirty-six weeks. Hope the next three years aren't like this. June, 1946-Well, another year over. This year, taking a lesson from last year, we found out which subjects were easiest and immediately signed up for them. You can't fool us twice. Of course, we also acquired the habit of-you should pardon the expression- blufHng at times. Some of us became quite good, too. Others weren't so fortunate. Sports and after school activities also became of more interest. By the way, should I mention there are fewer of us this year than last? June, 1947-What a year! ! ! It's a good thing vacation is here so that I can stop thinking for awhile. I might have seepage of the brain or something. That chemistry really has me stumped. I spent five hours studying it, too. Now let me see, which acid is it that you use for your eyes? Sulfuric? That doesn't sound quite right somehow. Oh well-next year we'll be Seniors and nobody can tell us what to do then. Qlt says here.j This year there were quite a few veterans in school who made things lively in some classes. There were a few snores heard in some though. June, 1948-Well, we finally made it, although at times I didn't think we would. Tomorrow is Graduation Day. We were really a smart class. Everybody had above 90 averages. The teachers said they had never seen another class like it-and hoped they never would. fThis last under their breaths.J They never forgave us for forsaking our studies for Robert Mitchum-in the case of boys it was probably some other reason. Well, Dear Diary, I'l1 see you five years from now at class reunion. There is a rumor that it will be held at one of two places- Augusta or Alcatraz. GLORIA PETERSON, '48. Twenly-four
