The TIGEM % V Trend of Events To get the most number of laughs out of school one must review his high school days and especially his Senior days. For the benefit of absent-minded Seniors we have jotted down the following. On September the 8th we proud Juniors went to be classified as dignified Seniors. Yes, some of us even took time to try and select the snap courses, but there were conflicts so we had to take our complaint to Mr. Reed. He fixed it for us ! Yes ! Instead of taking what we call snap courses he insisted that we take either bookkeeping, Spanish, geometry, trigonometry, science or commercial law and you may be assured that none of these are of that type. Putting all jokes aside though, we are very glad to have had Mr. Reed to guide and direct us as to the type of course to take that would be of the greatest benefit to us. Before another month passed we just had to inform the SLIMES as to how they rated with the Seniors. Before we were through with them they began thinking they were little soldiers for Uncle Sam.

Goodness but we worked hard. We had mid-term exams. Be- ware Seniors ! Study hard. Can ' t afford to flunk this term. Too late to drop subjects now. Our teachers reviewed us thoroughly, though we had nothing to fear. Then the Christmas holidays, and then back to work again. January. Plenty of work and time for play. If you have never had the opportunity to attend Wharton High School and sit in the study hall the third period you just don ' t know what you have missed. Some of the funniest things possible can happen. What would a study hall be without Bill Banker, Martha Jay Winn, Hulia Harrison, Howard Garner, Sabina Davis and some of the dignified Seniors? Well, there just wouldn ' t be any studying done at all. February passed in such a hurry that we just didn ' t seem to realize that we had (Continued on Page 28)
