VV eee Ct aan om Lie ws Let The Presentations of the Class of 1932+ We were studying hard, engrossed in our work. Ten minutes of the study were left and still thirty more lines of Virgil to do. Clank, clank, clank! Oh, heavenly divinities, would that noise ever cease? In behalf of lower classes and classes yet to come we wish to banish this fear. Mr. Hill, we present you with these baby rubbers. GERTRUDE, you are the first girl to ever be the presi- dent of a class in Central High. WE will always re- member this. Accept this gavel which will be a symbol to you of a great power achieved by no other Central girl. Between home work and the work you do outside, as well as for the class, you are a very busy girl. This telephone may help you, Betty [Dorr] to transact your business more easily. Like a tiger after it's prey, JEANNE [MILEs], you taunt your victims and snare them in your trap. How many innocent ones have you caught? Here is a mouse trap as a symbol of your success. We saw WENDELL [Corey] sitting at a desk, RUTH [Cross] was beside him. We saw RutH walking down the corridor, WENDELL was beside her. Wherever we see RutH, we see Wendell. We present you, WENDELL and Ruth, with this leash so that you may never be separated. Who is that well dressed girl? Remarks like these beseige our ears whenever you walk by, Rita [MAHER]. Here is a copy of Vogue so that you may always be up to the times. There have been many complaints, recently, concern- ing a pungent odor that would prevade the whole room. Upon investigation, with masks. the odor was found to come from a sweet scented cloud surrounding you, CAROLYN [Hare]. The class presents you with this compact so that after graduating you may still continue to cast this aroma about wherever you are. You Puitip [EpsTEIN] always seem to be doubtful in the morning about attending school. This is probably a natural feeling to one who arises at nine-thirty. Here is a watch to help you to be more punctual. Lewis [CoHEN], your interna! rattlings are always well meant. We advise you, however, for your own good, to restrain some of those bits of wisdom that drop from your lips. We present you with this muzzle to help you to that end. KENNETH KILBURN, Chairman GEORGE FISHER Hazer McCartHy Epwarp NorMANDEAU Naomt ONoRATO Last Will and Testament of the Class of 1932° We, the class of 19324, in the year of our Lord, 1933, in the independence of the United States, the 158th, in the foundation of Central High School the 150th, being in full and complete possession of our minds, yet con- sidering the uncertainty of our lives and to the end we may leave the Central High School in good standing, do hereby declare, publish, and assert this to be our last will and testament. First: To our Principal, the Honorable Mr. W. C. Hill, we, the class of 19323, leave the following: [1] One pair of felt-soled sneakers, in order that while going through room 323 he won't wake any of the industrious students. [2] One comfortable chair in his office, so that he may for once be in when a pupil in distress seeks him. [3] Another universe so that Central might be twice as good. Second: To the class of 1933 we leave our good old expression, We're not proud’ — along with an assort- ed bunch of megaphones. ArTICLE I. George Fine leaves that girlish figure to Peewee Cohen. ArtTIcLE II. Ralph Gibbs leaves his ability as a sterling penman and speller to anyone who wants it. {And don't say we didn’t warn you. ArTICLE III. Mary Purdy — of the Pennsyltucky Purdys — leaves that slouch to Virginia Leete, who has for three years tried to copy it: and we must say she has succeeded in a big way ArTICLEIV. To Julian Amolsky, Jack Lynch leaves that irresistible charm with women, and his ready repartee. ARTICLE V. We, the class of 19323, leave Mr. Ed. Smith out of the will — for a change. ArTICLE VI. Gert Twitchell leaves her prominence to Jimmy Gray. [He can take it or leave it. ] ArticLeE VII. To Tom Tuohey, the big spark and battery man, Betty Chapin leaves her giggles. We always wanted to hear a bass giggle. ArTICLE VIII. Carolyn Hare, that ravishing brun- ette, leaves her ability to wield a lipstick, and her strength to carry all that nail polish, to Suzanne Blanc — her only real rival. ArtTIcLE IX. Bill Streeter would like to leave some- thing, but [poor fellow] after three weeks in the hospital he claims he has nothing left to leave. ARTICLE X. Lennie Siegel leaves his tender school- girl complexion — plus a blow torch to singe his beard — to Jimmy Maxfield. ARTICLE XI. Irv Sisson leaves the school and no one even notices it. ARTICLE XII. Eileen Gordenstein leaves her wit to Snakes Goffard; maybe he'll have a whole one now. ARTICLE XII!. Bud Doyle leaves those white shoes — if we have to take them off him.
