Class History This, the tllird graduating class of Bexley Higl1, entered as Freshmen in the year twenty-one, in the old building. In that year we were supervised by a new Principal, Mr. E. R. Beck, registering under Miss VValters, also a new member on the teaching force. Being too fresh in the eyes of the upper class- men, we were given an initiation which was enjoyed by all, especially the ones wlio pro- moted the work. Finding that we had a hard year before us, and nothing else to detract us from our studies, we got to work and when June ar- rived we found ourselves in the second year of High School. After two months of vacation we were glad to enter into the New High School. The first days were spent in looking over the building and getting acquainted with the new members of the Faculty. In this, our Sophomore year, we registered with Mr. Smith, a new teacher and also our Athletic Coach. After two months of study, we de- cided to find out what we knew in the social line. The way to find out was to give a party. A party was given at the home of a member, Margaret Schelky. At Christmas time a party was held in our room. The second semester a Kid Party was suggested and approved by all. This was held in the old building, to make us feel more at home. This year we also engaged in athletic ac- tivities, having a girls' and boys' basketball team. The boys gave the Seniors a stiff battle for first place in the class tourna- ment. In September we entered as Juniors, reg- istering with Miss Mathiot, also new on the Faculty. We gave a party this year in the form of a Ha1lowe'en Party at the home of a mem- ber, Arielle McKahan. The evening was en- joyed very much by all. Following the ad- vice of our teachers we got down to work on our studies. VVe were guests of the Senior class, who showed us a good time through their ability to entertain, at the Senior-Junior Prom. We entertained the Senior class in May by giving an informal dance, having a good orchestra and plenty of punch. The evening passed too quickly. This year the boys were again runners-up in the class tournament. The girls also played some very good games. Then came the dreaded Exams, which de- termined whether or not we were to be Seniors. By passing the exams we entered the high school after several months of vacation, as Seniors. This year we are being super- vised by Mr. H. C. Dieterich. We are regis- tering with Mr. Smith again. The first few weeks were spent in getting acquainted with the rules and regulations which Mr. Dieterich presented. At a class meeting the following oflkers were elected: Albert Benzin, presidentg Margaret Schelky, vice president, Josephine Cavey, treasurerg and John Elder, secretary. The American Beauty Rose was selected as our class flowerg Silver and Orange as class colors, and Build for Character, not for Fame, as our class motto VVe decided to have a Hard Time Party, which was given in the school gym. Jan- uary thirty-first we entertained the Juniors by giving a dance. We decorated the audi- torium, served punch and candy. The second semester we elected the An- nual Staff, class orator, poet, etc. We are Page Seventeen
