where she attended Mt. Hermon school, situated in the highest mountain range in the world, the Himalayas. Last year Carol came to Syracuse High, where she is now serving as vice-presi-dent of the Senior class. After getting acquainted this past year, We found that her favorite subjects are Math, and Sciences, with Chinese food and fried chicken as her. favorite dishes. In music, her current , lilt is “P. S., I Love You,” with Perry Como for her favorite singer and Guy Lombardo’s orchestra. Between school and very capably working in a drug store, she still has time for her favorite pastimes, writing letters and sketching. Carol's only pet peeve is, "People who talk when they don't know what, they're talking about.” One of her accomplishments last year was winning a typing pin for being the best typist. This will help her very much for her plans after graduation are to Work in an office, keeping her ambition to be a nurse foremost in her mind. Carol, the Seniors of “54” wish you the best of success and happiness in your future. — Marilyn Hursey.

Feature Story The past week the Seniors have been in quite a dither preparing for their last high school play. It has been long, hard and sometimes tedious, but all the work will be well rewarded with the excitement of Friday night. .Ami though Mr. Immel, the director, has been irritated at times | and quite disturbed with the antics of the amateur actors and actresses, we believe he gets enjoyment out of it too. These pas' few weeks are ones which will not be forgotten by I the cast members. They will. make up those "good old high school days" that older people' reminisce about. —- Ann Hilburt and Suzanne Kleinknight. Play A Success Th# Seniors wish to thank you for your good attendance at their play on October 16. The play helped the class a great deal financially towards their trfp to be taken this spring.

The members of the cast were all present by 6:30 for the flurry and excitement of getting their make-up and costumes on, after which they spent time just getting over stage fright and nervousness. It was a new experience for several in the cast, but they soon got over it. The members of the cast attribute their success to the director, Mr. Lewis Immel. And they thank him sincerely for his patience and guidance throughout the many hours of practice. After the play ’the Seniors spent a few pleasant and relaxing hours at a party given at the home of Sandra Curry. — Carol Frederick.
