Our third meeting was held for the purpose of electing a class editor for the Herald . Grace Croshaw was chosen. The last meeting to date was held because of a question brought up by the treasurer. The majority of the class had been neglecting their dues as it seemed and there was a question as to the amount to be paid. Our sophomore year now comes to a close. We wish the seniors the best of luck in their new lives and hope the future sophomores will make their second year as successful as ours has been. Grace Croshaw ' 54 President .

22 THE HIGH SCHOOL HEKALI) SCHOOL NEWS In September 1952, the total registration at Windsor Locks High School numbered 152 students. The Senior Class numbered 31 students; Junior Class, 27 students; Sophomore Class, 32 students; and the Freshman Class, 62 students. The only change in the faculty this year was that Mr. Jacob Teller of West Hartford replaced Mr. Jan Kok as Music Supervisor and Freshman English teacher. Mr. Teller has done an excellent job in organizing the Glee Club and the orchestra. Both groups made an appearance on a radio program November 10, and have played at high school assemblies and other school functions. The Senior Class gained a profit of $910 from the magazine sale which is the highest ever reached in the records of the school. The Press Club was organized in October and they have printed four issues of the Wilohi. The Scribblers ' Club was organized again this year and they have recently been very active in their foreign correspondence. A Thanksgiving Dance was sponsored by the Junior Class on November 22. An assembly was held on January 10. This assembly was originally scheduled for Christmas, but because of inclement weather on the day the assembly was scheduled, it had to be postponed to a later date. A food sale was held by the Senior Class on March 15 to raise much needed funds. The Basketball team made a trip to New York during March to witness the National Invitation Tournament. A testimonial banquet was held for the members of the basketball team and the cheerleaders on April 3. Maroon and white jackets were presented to the members of the varsity at the banquet. Many leading sport figures were in attendance. The Senior Class play entitled Don ' t Keep Him Waiting under the direction of Jacob Teller and Miss Lucille Smith was presented on April 18. The Senior Class made their annual trip to Washington during the last week in April. This about completes the activities at Windsor Locks High School for ' 52, but the knowledge that the students have obtained is the most important activity at the school, so I believe I should end the news in that way.
