' Theodate Wyatt CLASS OF 1931 On September 6, 1927, one hundred seventy-nine members of the class of '31 en- tered the corridors of the Carthage High School, and were often misguided and trick- ed by our natural enemy, the sophomores. Only a few weeks had passed until We had adjusted ourselves to the routine of our new home and had organized our class. We showed excellent judgment in electing Carl Jackson, president of our class. Blue and silver were selected as our class colors and the blue iris, as our class flower. The second year of our journey found us rather overconfident of our prowess which is a habit Sophomores have. We now felt very much justified in playing new and old tricks on the green Freshiesf' Collectively, although we worked hard, We still could not equal the upper classmen in honors in some of the class loyalty races. Individually, we managed to gain some honors in all activities. We again had as our leader, Carl Jackson, who proved that he was capable of filling the position. Our Junior year, feeling the responsibility of the upper classmen, we climbed steadily toward our coveted goal-graduation. More and more we felt our unity, and at the same time we were becoming prominent, integral parts of C. H. S. activities and organizations. Our athletes, our musicians, our debaters, stepped into the lime- light as the leaders in their respective fields. At the close of the year we demon- strated our ability to cooperate by giving the class of '30 a rousing reception, a send- off on the various highways which lead from high school. As Seniors, our illustrious class excels all others. We have given our best to our school and in return have received as bountifully. We have been active in all phases of school life. We are represented on the debating team, the football and basketball teams, in literary societies, in musical organizations, in the publication of the Campus Bugle and all other forms of school activity. This year we again chose Carl Jackson as president for the fourth consecutive year, and he is indeed worthy to head this distinguished class. We have a good reputation, and under our motto, The Door of Success is Labeled 'Push', we hope to attain greater fame. Twenty iN I
