o A THE WHIRLWIND A SENIOR CLASS HISTORY (Continued) Bennett, who came to A. H. S. from Bend, Oregon, in his junior year, was elected senior class president; Donald McCrary, vice-president; LaVora Emmett, secretary; and Katherine Boucher, treasurer. Martin Kropp was elected student body repre- sentative; our adviser was Miss Marion Stanford. The class again won the inter class dehate, which shows that Clare Stewart, Laura Margaret Smith, Robert Poliak, Hague Callistcr, Isabel Van Waning, Waldo Munsey, Betty Stuart, and Katherine Boucher are wonderful debaters. Besides this a number of the leading parts in the operetta were taken by seniors. The class of 1931, the largest graduating class in the history of A. H. S., has done its part in giving to the school its best ability in the different activities, such as sports, debate, dramatics, and music. Everyone was happy to see and hear of the history of the class of ’31 through the invention of television. Senior Saga Seniors at last! It has been fun hi A. H. S. See what’s been done lit football, tennis, track—in short, We’ve shone at every kind of sport. Dramat we entered with a will. Debating is our strong point still. We’ve worked quite hard and done our best. Tried to leave records for the rest. Please don’t mind if we boast a bit— We’ve lots to learn—and we know it! So, soon ive’ll be out and lost in the crowd— For just a little while—let's be proud! —Margaret Wood. 2 Thirteen -4

------------------------- a THE WHIRLWIND a Bess rrr McCrary Stanford Emmett Boucher SENIOR CLASS HISTORY A 1‘ I HOUGH television was a marvelous invention, not very much could be seen or heard about the history of the class of 1931. In 1927 the freshmen at Madison elected the following officers: president, Ivan Zimmerman; vice-president, LaY ora Emmett; secretary, Nadyne Reiley; and treasurer, Ethel Magers. At Central the same proceedings were going on. Robert Marks became president; Mona McFarland, vice-president; and Wallace Kennedy, secretary-treasurer. While only freshmen both the Madison and Central students were well represented in dif- ferent activities; Madison won the freshman debate contest. When these classes left Junior High to seek their fortunes at A. H. S., many wondered what had happened to them. Through television came the information that the sophomore class officers were being elected : Ruth Potwin, president; Elma Morton, vice-president; and Katherine Boucher, treasurer. During the sophomore year Ruth Potwin tied for first place in the declamatory contest, while the class debaters won the interclass debate contest. 1 he following year it was learned that the class had been progressing rapidly; they were now juniors and were proud to be called “upperclassmen.” As before in the freshman year, Ivan Zimmerman became class president. The other officers were Ethel Magers, vice-president; Donald Stalcup, secretary; and Katherine Boucher, treasurer. Members of the class took parts in the Dramat plays, besides presenting one of their own, “Tea for 'Pom.” This was the first time in the history of A. H. S. that the junior class had ever put on a class play. Since the interclass debate contest Avas won again by the juniors, and since Clare Stewart took the leading part in the operetta, Peggy and the Pirates,” and also won the district oratorical contest, the junior year was considered quite eventful for the class of 1931. Three years passed, and the fourth and last year at A. H. S., which seemed the most important of all, was coming on. An auburn-haired boy, named Woodsor. £-■ J Ttceht
