2 SPECIILTM HISTORY Ol? THE CLASS Oli' '25 It was a large class of softies who' attired in the green outfit of East High's Gob, embarked upon the sea of experience just four years ago. They were a trustful bunch who placed themselves under the guidance of the helmsman, Wir. Waldo. It is pos- sible that no one recognized in that group, dispatched from the Bay of Grade Harbour, the future makings of an illustrious senior class. UFRESHIESH VVithout a doubt this could be clearly called the Age of the Nincompoopf' We call it that age in the hope that the reader will mistake its meaning. However here and there, a few volunteers were taken from the ranks of the Class of '25, and it is these people upon whom the true making of this class is based. Allowances must be made, however, during this hone-head period, but as a whole these Tars delivered. SOPHS Now a great deal of progress is evident. The well known shiek, athlete, masher, dancer and orator are stepping forth from the ranks of the class of '25. This class is divided into two parts, the one including the above mentioned, the other including the majority. This is the era of awakening Here and there are traces of intelligence which the Sophs of '25 registered. Even a few dared to attempt to help the trusty crew' but none have dared to accost the sailing managers. Every now and then captain Runninger and lVIates Garms and Garwood have found it necessary to see that none of their cherubs have contracted the Pink Slip Plague. UJUNIORHOODH Now Juniorhood! The class of '25 has sensed a feeling of responsibility. The tyrannical reign of the first rate Gobs, otherwise known as seniors, is giving away to a great extent, because of the unseen power of the coming class. Perhaps they too, the seniors, sense the arrival of the class of intelligents . The class, socially speaking, has arrived. It was with much pomp and grandeur that the Junior Prom was held. Their extent of extreme culture was displayed when the Curtain rose for the Class Play. Our 'KTailor lliade lVIan was admired by all, in fact he still is. HSENIORSU At last the long awaited arrival of the good ship E. A. to the port of Alma Mater has occurred. Now the Tars of '25 have acquired all excess knowledge and are right- fully recognizedlfas the elite of the school. With the help of our worthy class officers, namely 'fBoh Kenyon and Helen Stadler, we have obtained an independence that is noteworthy. The Wlirile Town is Talking our Class Play lived up to its name. It was presented as only rightful seniors could present it. As a matter of fact the class has obtained a clever abstinence from studies. Although famous, it is with modesty that the class set for shore with their diplomas. Class '25 takes leave of East High and of the principal, Mr. Waldo, and teachers who have been so helpful to them, to set sail' some, upon the sea of industry, others upon the Sea of lldatrimony. Anyhow they are setting out to be masters of men, to advertise East High, and to print in the annals of American History the names which East High has had the honor of sending forth. VVhether these names be of lawyer, of artist, of author, of statesman, of beggar or of dirt hauler, let it he known that they came from the Good Ship East Aurora. FRANCIS CURRAN. sa . 1 + i .
