SIDELIGHTS

By Helen Deis

 

Congratulations to the National
Honor Society initiates, Buckner,
Betty Ann, Glenn and Griffin—a
great bunch of outstanding U-
Hians!

A new staff was elected: Lida:
“I’d love to write for the paper, if
you promise not to assign me any-
thing.’ ’

The juniors worked feverishly on
the Prom and a casual after-school
visitor could have found:

Mr. Ginger wearily sprinklin star-
dust on the millionth star . . . Ex-
pert seamstresses Matlack, Jimmy
and Jack Barker slaving over a hot
sewing machine . . . Billy Joe and
Barbara arguing over who had
worked the most . . . Shrill scream:
“If this junk down the hall is one
of Mr. Ginger’s mass production
ideas, somebody better come out
here and start massing it!”
Luigart sitting in a corner, chuck-
ling over an A-level book . . . Glenn
painting trellises in the dark . . .
Brewer murmering that the morning
paper’s headlines would probably
read “300 students Smothered to
Death By Decorations.”

At last the orchestra donned
sweat-shirts and peanls and the
dance was on. Although we didn’t
use Onnie’s suggestion of dragging
in the quee nin a burlap sack to
keep her a complete surprise, every—
body agreed that Betty Joe and‘lher
attendants were lovely. After the
brawl was over: Robin’s clanking,
dragging key-chain was diminished
by one basketball . . . A large crowd
gleefully witnessed Hugh being bat-
tered to a pulp by Miss Yeary, who
offers a new judo course beginning
this week . . . Blushing Buddy Wal-
lace was violently set upon and
kissed by her majesty.

THE U-HI LIGHTS

 

 

LOW LIGHTS

 

 

At last, darkness! No, don‘t get
the wrong idea, we‘re only in the
picture show. After standing for
two hours, we settle down, pull out
our bifocals, and prepare ourselves
for - - - - the movie!

In the midst of a dramatic scene,
a loud “quack. quack" greets our
ears. “The Duck" has just seen
Louise and Shouse gazing tenderly
into each other‘s eyes (they don‘t
like the show either.) Not able to
stand it any longer, Don waddles
out in the direction of West Main to
forget his worries with a bottle of
- - — sasparilla.

All is quiet until there is a shrill
:piercing cry, “Usher, usher, throw
‘this boy out!" Turning around we
see that it is only Brewer, practicing
new attacks for when (and if!) he
has another date with Onnie.

As for Miss Tucker, we find her
with Eddie, sitting on the last row
in the balcony (second?) Both seem
iperfectly happy with a bag of pop-
corn and several Snickle bars.

Rushing back to get a drink (for
lack of something better, we resort
to H-2.—O) we bump into Joyce, led
by a red-head and followed by
“Nails.“ Though we think she is
doing all right now, we have heard
that Joyce’s heart is laid at the
feet of a tall, grey-eyed junior, who
so far. has never given any girl a
thought.

Stumbling back down the aisle,
we see “Peaches" who has finally
decided that a “T-shirt” is tops.
However, we haven‘t seen him wear
his "Masque and Gavel" pin lately.

Upon seating ourselves, we find
Sally, who is now devoting all of
her time to the study of birds—
particularly a “Robin.” They seem
to be doing very nicely, thank you,
and certainly make a cute couple.

And now, “The March of Time."
This short, being a little too deep for
our meager intellect, prompts our
departure, and we make our way
'up to Jake‘s.

to think no girl worth his time now

we find Barbara calmly sitting in

To The Seniors

'l'radiiion requires great eloquence in the editorial written on
the graduating class. Flowery phrases on “taking your place in a
troubled world" are in order. The words do not come.
a simple, “So long—you're a great bunch."

Seniors are no different from anyone else. However, onc- notes

Instead,

the solemn respect. paid you by the freshmen, the profound ad~
mirution of [he sophomores, and the loud scorn and silent envy
of the juniors.

Seniors are apart in one respect. alone. You must collc-cl your
memories of many happy years and treasure them in 21 quiet corner
of your hearts, for you know—“never again." You will remember
many things. each with a certain nostalgic fragrance. Your first
high school dance. carving your initials in the biology table, the
senior play. the basketball games that, we won. the last furlivc trip
to the lower when names were scrawled hurriedly on the cascmenls,
the Pop club banquets. class picnics, your first love. sleeping
through chemistry, the junior-senior war, feverish preparations of
history work-books. the Christmas programs and other convoca-
tions you liked so well. day dreaming in Latin. that certain little
sling when you first realized—"my last year." These things—and
many more—must you remember and treasure.

Graduation does not have a great deal of appeal for any of
us, mainly because it presents uncertainty. High school (onlaim
an clcmcnl of confidence and security that was reliable and sure.
To leave it for new situations, new people, new ideas is not a
welcome lhought. Graduation i521 crisis which we all must «mccl. a
challenge which we all must accept, sooner or later.

To graduate is to leave U-Hi and all the things that go with it.
But in graduating you leave behind you a fin * 21nd enviable record,
one to be pri7cd. The great responsibility falls to us. for we must
live up to the standard you have set.

And so, seniors, there are no flowery phrases or eloquent
speeches or tearful good-byes. Mcrcly a word to say that University
High is proud of each and every one of you.

The Baseball Team

Not much has been said about the baseball team this year, so
we think it fitting to say a few words in behalf of the boys who
have spent many afternoons until eleven o'clock sometimes practic-
ing for the team.

Our baseball team is probably not as good as manyjjjgh school
teams. This is our first year to attempt, hardball and only two boys
out for the team have ever had any experience. However, with the
spirit of the boys and the expert guidance of Dr. Allen, we have
developed a smooth working nine over a period of a few short
weeks.

The rapid-fire infield who have never failed to do their best
deserve a great deal of credit. Myrt, Trimblc, Hugo. and Bill are
a great combination.

The batteries of Huggins and Chubby. and Mose and Brewer
are doingr fine, and will do better with each practice.

Those boys who have workcd in the outfield—James. Grif,
Buck. and Glenn—have always turned out lo back up the infield
in battingr practice.

The others, whose able help and cooperation are helping to
build the team, are just as important. Luigart, Horse. Shouse.
Muir. \Valicr, Bill, and Kent are improving)‘ every day.

Let's support this team, and help to make it a better one!
