* Thanksgiving ~s a day for thank­ing--,-thankfog · God, thanking par­

By M~ry Mercer

T echnologi.sts Are In Great Demand

Do. you have average intellig~nce, a good personality, common sense and per­sistence? These are a few of the quali­fications necessary to become a s1Uccessful la.boratory technician.

We are indebted to all these for the favors that fall on us every day of the year.

It 's easy t o think of the' big favors in life f~r which to be grateful, but what of the thousand and one kind­nesses we unconsciously accept every day-the "hi," the smile, the friend­ly words that make or break our day? We owe thanks for t he sunny

- day, for a green tree, f or the eter­nal life · that is revealed on a spring day.

Our lives are built of pieces that fit like a jig-saw puzzle, and on Thanksgiving' Day let's remember the little pieces as well as the large. * Thanksgiving is a day for think­ing-:.--'thinking of. yesterday, think­ing of today, thinking of tomorrow and the years to come. : '

We must think to be truly thank­ful-think of what has made up the past year, think of where we are today 'and think of what tomorrow will holq for which· we can give1

thank~. · A ~ord of thanks, a prayer of ·

thanks goes a long way. Thanks-• giving . Day is ·just a sfring around our fingers to remind us " of wh'at ·we owe each day. ' . ' , I

Football is a m~n's sport-it takes a rea.l'man to play it. A lot of boys went out for the team-they learned how to ' be men before the final gun.

The cheers have been screamed and the Alma Mater sung, and now the football season is over. What did the cheering section get from this football year beside cold feet and, cold hanqs? ; · ·

A thrill, a frenzy, a gHmpse of the pageantry of the rough and tOugh spor( ''of football. And they learneq how Jo . support the Quakers, win, lqse. Qr , dra."'.. All SHS has learned to . W0rk for ·victory and accept de-feat gracefully. ·

senior class play will be viewed by the public tonight and tomorrow eve. It would take a fot of sleuthing to determine how much combined effort it takes to produce a successful performance. With more than 150 studes working on play committees, we sometimes wonder how Miss Weeks can take it.

His & Hers By Barbara Cobourn

What qualities does an SHS male want in a wife or sweetheart? And where does the female of the species stand on the que:;ition of choos­ing a .mate?

The roving · reporter ·felt the r omantic pul~e beat of SHS and here's the general consensus of opinion.

Are · · you understanding, courageous, considerate, personable, intelligent, fun­loving respectful, congeµial, well-liked, neat and uncciiiceited? If so, 'and if you have ·a car and ·an average amount of m·oney, then you -can take your pick of

' _any girl 'in -SHS. · '· · - ·

'If yo~ have any four of these qualities you can still ' be pretty choosy, ,and if ' yo.u're : just an ordinary guy, only about 98 per cent of ' the fems are at your feet.

To the girl who is f;,iendly, sincere,

thoughtfiul, generous, kind, good-looki:p.g, . h~nest; capable, appreci.a~ive, swe:et, and with a pleasant d1sposit10n, a sense · ol: humor ·and a sparkling personality goes a chance to capture the heart of any guy. But don't be upset if you don't meet all of these specific<1tions. Most fellows aren't quite so particular.

One beau (though not too typical) said he'd settle for "any old hag at all'' and a senior, 'after naming 14 desirable quali­

. ties, said he only 'o/anted "the things every man wants but never gets."

Thi$ is a true a ccount of the exciting exploits of Dr. Tom and his wife on the Cook IS'lands. "Seventeen" magazine re­commends boJh for teen~agers.

On The Social Scene Post-game parties were very much in

vogue last , weekend. Bobbie Durand had. an open house for seniors, Jane Howard and Ruthann Greenwood provided pillows for slumber ( ? ) parties, Dick Saltsman had "men only" and Sally Hutcheson stipulated "b;r:-ing a · date." '

SHS studes filled the Elks ballroom for the last post-football dance of the season. Our gratitude to the Elks for the swell dances they gave us again this year.

From the World .of High Fashion Out-of-this-world doesn't describe the

luscious grey cashmere sweater set that Mary Campbe11 sports since her birth­day and the colorful corduroy . box · jackets worn with skirts by-· Ruthann Greenwood, Carrie McFeely and Marilyn Litty. Guarante~d to bring out the whistle in

the . wolf, girls, are those flashy new socks, each with its own conversation­piece pin attached to the . triple roll. .

Have you noticed ... Marlynn Mal­lery's sharp new specs, Mr Sherman's bright yellow shirt, Miss Ulicny's fas­cinating rings to match each day's out­fit, pick CopP,oc~'s riionogramed cuff links?

According to the Registry of Medical Technologists "a laborat0ry technician is dne who, by education and t r aining, is capable of performing, under the . super­vision of a pathologist' ·or ·other qua lified physician, the various chemical, micro­scopic, bacteriplogic and other medical labora tory pr ocedures used in the di­agnosis, ·_ stl].dy · and treatment of dis-ease." ·

Thi:;; is a .very rewarding career. Labora­tor y technicians have played .important r oles in the \iiscoveries · of some of the miracles of medicine and in doing so have contributed to the betterment of mankind. .r

Prospective technicians should · take as many science and . math courses as possi-· ble, including a lot of laboratory work. If one wishes to work as a technicfari in a doctor's office a business course is . also

!suggested. · The demand for laboratory technicians

is steady and is likeiy to incr~ase for many years to come because the need for more medical laboratories is increas-' ing. . I ,

Tµrkeys 'Ham' to Avoid The Axe By Gloria Colananni

'When the first Thanksgiving turkeys · ~ere given the axe ' they hid no inkling that their descenda'nts were 'to ' face the

. same fate ~very . year thereafter. As a matter of fact they had no suspicion of their own · impending execut~ori, or they would probii.bly have insisted on a writ of' ,habeas corpus and ·it 'trial lby jury. They were . victims of a sneak attack and were t qo startled to even don · that sad; soulful expression which' has no doubt saved many a ·wise turkey since ..

\ ) .·, . '

,'Fhe Pilgrim's turkeys . w~re . simple, trusting souls. In sharp contrast the modern ·gobblers are sly, wary, complex individuals. The change has been gradual and is a result of the thousands of tur­k ey dinners which have been prepared on past Thanksgiving days.

As the turkeys began to realize that the turkey population was drastically re­duced each year on the last Thursday in · November, some of them began to de­vise intricate and ingenious ways of self-preservation. ' Some unfortunate indi. viduals, though, were too ignorant to grasp the meaning of "the axe~' · and

. thus lived on in feeble-minded bliss and died in stunned perplexity'.

Turkeys today are second in complexity only tq human beings.

The methodical, far-sighted turkey will plan . in advance his system for escaping execution. Fo:r example, ·· he niay stai:t countfog calories and becqme ·so pitifully thin that not even a tramp would drea,m of eating him. ·

The dramatic turkey will depend on his a~ting ability to save · him. On D-Day he will gaze · at his would-be executioner with soulful, haunting eyes, utter a few heart~roken g1obbles and · Thanksgiving day will probably find him happily pecking corn and silently congratulating ·himself .

Coming into prominence is the crafty, calculating ,!breed of .turkey. Perhaps in the future they may qave human beings

. '."rapped around their little tail feathers.

As for the present I'll take a good oid turkey dinner any day, bit if the poor creature .looks at me with those soulful, sad eyes . . . . ·
