Class of ' 34 Here, friends, are the .seniors, almost ready to make their last bow to the rest of the student body of Boise high school before thej disappear into the mists of the somewhat uncertain future. These seniors are people of no small courage. They have fought with true undergraduate spirit every oppressive obstacle in the last four years. They have contributed stellar leaders in everj line of school activity. Among them are poli- ticians of great string-pulling ability, ath- letes whose feats are worshipped from afar by all the susceptible hearts in the school, journalists from whom every per- son possessing a skeleton in the closet Hees, dramatists so great that they are actually looked upon with suspicion MHMH H by the conservative | members of the stu- dent body, and musicians talented enough to uphold their reputations among the best. This yea r most of the senior,, were stowed safclv awaj in the two study halls for advisories under J. E. Six and E. Glider. A iew, h o w e v e r , w e r e scattered around in the advisories of Dwight Mitchell, Helen Miller, Esther Stalker, Ida Marsh, and Si Perkins. Old-fashioned dresses, rags tatters, straw hats and derbies came into their own on senior dress-up day. Seniors who didn ' t dress up and under-classmen who did met up with the big end of a paddle wielded bv a high ami might} senior. A committee in the halls selected the best COStmues dining the first three periods. A short pantomine was given at the assembly. The senior advisers chose Violetta Deckard and Raymond Ledvina as the best dressed seniors. That grand and glorious day when all seniors are allowed to skip school and sneak off to some secret rendezvous came in May. Senior sneak daj gave a smile I w ntj sij i Doris Eh to more than one downcast face. The Command Performance was the senior class play. The cast contained many prominent seniors. The seniors, aye, even everybody else, enjoyed this delight- ful play to the fullest extent. Now take one last look at all the sen- iors as they cross the stage and receive their diplomas. They will never again all be together. Even by next fall they will be scattered all over. They will be gone on their way to fields of endeavor from which, from time to time, stories of the successes of this person and that will come back to the home folk and they will say proudly, Oh, yes, 1 know him, he graduated from Boise high school in the class of ' 34. LeRoy Sproat, outstanding senior, flH I won the Kiwanis W k I sdub plaque for this I year as the most fSt, • I reliable man on the 17 • football team. His fey- name was engraved along with others who were promi- nent in athletics in past years. LeRoy also placed second in the boys ' popu- larity contest, Ios- LeRo) Sproat ing first place by a very small margin. That last minute cramming seemed to effect the senior boys in the intra- murial track meet, for they allowed the juniors to give them a trouncing — a fact which made the juniors forget them- selves and violate senior day. However, the seniors asserted themselves and main a rowdy junior took himself somewhat stiffly home at noon and changed back to civilized clothe., or swore he would never chew gum again, whichever his particu- lar trouble might be. Tin- commencement exercises featured the semi-centennial of the school. The class ot ' ,i4 is the first graduating class aftei iniv years of history in Boise high school. Many self-sacrificing seniors gave up then- studv hall, and did re-
