Upon entering school in September. little did the students realize that they would be playing a vital part in Amer- ica's defense. They realized only that they were one step further toward their final year. So, though the war was being waged, Fall brought the same hum-drum wrought by previous Falls. To the Seniors it meant becoming the big shots ofthe schoolg graduation and choosing a career. To all, it meant night basketball games, and the formation of new clubs, teams and various other groups and organizations which consti- tuted a significant part of the scholastic life. steadily fresh information was gleaned and our fellow students were worlcing together intimately, making new contacts and acquaintances. The Junior and Senior classes elected their Presidents and the Hi-Y and Tri-Hi-Y were already in the swing of things. As yet there were no activities directed to the war effort. Although the Tri-Hi-Y was knitting squares for an afghan and malcing dresses for the British War Re- lief, there were no defense stamp and bond sales and no First Aid instruction was given. No air raid rules or drills were being enforced and a physical fit- ness program wasnlt started. This all came with the Spring. Yes, school in the Fall was off with a bang. The Greenies got their first taste of high school, and the Seniors were adjusting themselves to the posi- tion they were assuming. All was peace and serenity. These first few weelcs llound the pupils in the eleventh grade, becoming accustomed to the English-History course, while the Seniors, who were the First to experiment with such a course last year, were trying to comprehend the Wide field of economics. The Sopho- mores found their curriculum crowded with only a few study halls prevalent. After the daily routine of classes, the bell at two-thirty not only announced the school day over, but ushered in the many hours for extra-curricular activ- ities. About this time, college propaganda began Howing in and students tried to be attentive and unbiased in their opin- ions towards representatives from the various schools. Looking backward we saw a well scheduled and thoroughly enjoyable season. Looking forward we envisioned a Spring every bit as bright and promis- ing. IILIIPHIIN
