WVVV ef' 'lk V9 HISTORY 'n, UF ClLAS'S'OlF 1934-1935 THIS dear old ship is now anchoring in the harbor and about 115 passengers are going ashore. We are just completing a voyage of four years on the sea of learning which has been Very profitable to all. During these four years, we have had many able pilots to steer us over rough waters. In the fall of 1931, a group of 193 passengers boarded the ship BDI-IS . Bob johnson was our efficient captain, together with Frieda Marshall, Melvin Pierson, and Janet Beckham, assisting to keep us well organized. We were often accused by other passengers in higher classes as being a bit sea' . But after becoming accustomed to the ship and the daily routine we out-grew this d accepted the official name Freshmen . On Washington's birthday, a ball for all Freshmen was held in the reception room, at which we all had a grand time. Then the evening before going ashore for a vacation of four months, a hard-time party was given for all passengers. This completes one-fourth of our voyage. . Vacation is over! It is time to go on board the ship. We lost some passengers but also acquired some new ones. There are still 155 of us. This year, we chose as our cap-- tain, Virgil Schoettlin and his co-workers, Mary Stonebraker, George Hiatt, and Ruth Harris. We have a feeling of importance now, as we are no longer called Freshies but can call the new passengers that. Our new name is Sophomores . We had a party at which all had an enjoyble time. ltis time to go ashore again for a short vacation. A farewell party was given for all passengers at which the girls' came attired in gingham dresses and the boys in overalls. We danced and played bunco and refreshments were served. After anchoring at this port, we still have two years to complete our voyage. It is the fall of 1933 and we are shoving off for the third year of our trip. There are 125 of us and we are called Juniors . The Captain is George Hiatt, first-mate is Ruby Bingman, second-mate is Mary Stonebraker, and third-mate is Wilber Bohannon. This is a year of good times. A Hallowe'en party was given for Juiniors and Seniors. A good time was had by all. On April 6th, the juniors had the honor of entertaining the Seniors and their guests at a reception. Every one had a grand time. Again a farewell party was given before anchoring. Three-fourths of our destined route is completed. After going shore, the Juniors and Seniors had a picnic at Flat Rock, on June 10th. Here it is September 8, 1934 and we are once more at sea. There are 104 of us, but with the 12 B's there is a total of 115. We see smooth waters ahead and hope that no accidents occur. We are now called Seniors aind of course, we are dignified. Our cap- tain is Richard Keck and assisting him is Frieda Marshall, Virgil Schoettlin, and Anna Lee Craigle and council of four members. At a Junior and Senior I-Iallowe'en party, nearly everyone came masked and much fun was had in the grand march. We danced and refreshments were served. We were the guests of the Juniors at a reception given in our honor. Everyone enjoyed themselves. We are nearing the last port. A farewell party was given for all passengers and our last one. too. And then for class clay and many tears and fond farewells. Our four years' cruise has ended. During this time, we have been delayed by icc- bergs and terrific storms, which we thought perhaps disastrous but we have arrived all safe and full of knowledge. May our Life Cruise be as successful as this one and the Ship prosper in its years to come. FINIS 4 6
