D. H. S. PERISCOPE As tine rolled on each year became more important than the 1-st and the ]unior year a busy one. At the beginning of the year there were sixty-one of us left. A cruel, demanding life decreased our ranks. Names of members of our class were evident in all activities as baseball, basketball, football, track, tennis, dramatics, plays, and debate. Our class, even though defeated by the seniors,made a good try for the interclass trophy. We sponsored two student body dances, the irls took part in the commencement exercises, and entertained the seniors at the annual reception by giving them a dinner, a program and a dance. Our class was guided in this vital and important year by Robert Woodman, president; Robert Conwell,vice president, Ivan Ickes, secretary-treasurer; and Miss Betty Sedgwick, adviser. Most of the time room 19 wps on the 15st of those who earned half-holidays. The spirit and enthusiasm of the class was shown when one member tasted and felttne clear cold water of La Creole as a result of his carelessness in spoiling the record and'causing sixty-fei-low students to stay inside over their books on a glorious spring afternoon. 1936
