'I ff! Al 'RUiii.. '-N 53- 'A '-' We were so ardently industrious during our Junior year that we found little time for pleasure to slip in. However a Kid Christmas party was an important feature in our history. The next important event was the presentation of the Junior play Take My Advice . This was a roaring comedy and the cast accomplished their parts in a creditable manner. With the proceeds from this we gave the customary Junior-Senior banquet. The japanese idea was carried out. Favors and ideas pertaining to this subject were used. Junior skip day was thought to be one of the most important events by members of the class but not by the faculty, so we spent a few days of June at school . ' This year was closed by a picnic at Sch immers Lake. Chap ter IV We now have come to our fourth and last year in A. H. S. Those who were hcnored by being chosen for an officer in their Senior year are: Elmo Carnes, presidentg Alberta VanBerg, vice president, Dorothy Grace Bogardus, secretary, Evelyn Johnson, treasurer. Early in the fall we enjoyed a beefstealc fry in Streeter Park. The members of the annual staff were elected soon after school started. The Senior Class party was held Friday evening, March 18. It was in the form of a masquerade. Prizes were awarded to Leah Ruyle for the best girl's costume and to Glen Newman for the boys. A program was given which included a short play, written by Theodora Nelson, songs and readings. Tho se participating were: Myrl George, Elmo Carnes, Emma Jayne Cass, Dorothy Grace Bogardus, Leona Nielsen, Bessie Belle Brown and Bill Sandin. ' The most im ortant events of our senior ear are et to come: the unior-Senior l P Y Y D banquet, Senior play and commencement, th en the class of '32 will have bade dear old A. H. S. adieu To The Seniors Happy and carefree, they go thru' life Hardly meeting a single strife, But when they do, they stop and recall: I cannot let my kingdom fall. All things having been made right They then proceed out of sight. With sad faces we stand and stare, And wish that we could never dare To watch our friends fade into space, Leaving behind a mournful place. But we've all been faithful and true To the dear old class of '32. VALDA BARKER ---- I ., 3 3 ....... ,. ge T enly-one ,.l....l- ,..........--- l..l...l-i-

K :.., xgkgggag - ,r A Senior Class History From the history of mankind we have learned that all races and groups of people, both great or small, have sought to leave some lasting record, whether carved on stone, or printed on paper, to tell of their existence. CHAPTER I - It was four years ago in 1928 that a large group of awkward, bashful looking freshmen ascended the stairs and sought refuge ia the nearest available seats. We went blindly forward searching vainly for the different class rooms assigned to us. After a few days we suc- ceeded in wearing off a bit of the emerald hue and fell into the ranks of high school life with no little ease. Our class roll included approximately eighty members. We were not initiated into high school life by a mixer as former classes had been, however some of the freshmen boys received a taste of initiation generously applied with belts by the upper classmen. - The first weeks passed very rapidly and we were finally notified of a Freshmen Class meeting. We chose for president, Elmo Cam esg for vice president, Bessie Belle Brown, for treasurer, Evelyn Stowellg for secretary Dorothy Grace Bogardus. Under the leadership of these we worked untiring for the best interests of our class. Gradually as the year pro- gressed we learned how to yell without the aid of upper classmen. We soon took on the characteristics of an average high school pupil. The steady grind of studying was offset by our freshmen party. Everyone had a roaring good time until we were told it was time for Freshmen to be treading their way homeward. ' The grand finale event of our Freshmen year was a picnic at Riverside Park. CHAPTER II The short summer months soon slipped away and we again found ourselves seated in the assembly of Aurora High School. We we re no longer Freshmen, but we called ourselves upper classmen with a few less in number but with increased enthusiasm. We chose as our leaders this year Dorothy G Bogardus for President Evelyn ohnson vice president Ev elyn Stowell treasurer and Myrl George secretary Our party this year came in anuary Old Man Fun again had full sway at this great event The other specialty of this chapter was a picnic held in May This year we were al lowed to go to Grand Island Stolleys Park So it was with Well done thou good and faithful Sophomores that we closed our second high school year CHAPTER III As the unior year progressed we realized the great number of hard problems wh ch were to be solved during the following nine months With this in mind we elected the following officers Alberta VanBerg preside nt Reuben Kindvall vice president Miriam Chapman ecretary and Flmo Carnes treasurer a 1 - 5 J , 5 - 1 3 1 ' - - J rc 17 ' ' , .
