It was decided that the classes would stay together until their senior year, with Mrs. Avery and Mr. Smith as sponsors. The officers elected were: President, George Jack- son; Vice-President, Pete Sarantos; Secretary, Mary Lavrich; Treasurer, Jane Clark; Social chairman, Evangeline Blu- baugh. At the Riley basketball game the following January, the class members sold candy with the Debate Club. A Farmers ' Party, held in the cafeteria on January 22, proved success- ful, with games and dancing as entertainment. In January, 193 8, Jane Clark became president; George Jackson, vice-president; Mary Lavrich, secretary; Evangeline Blubaugh, treasurer; and Ruth Riblet, social chairman. On April 29, a novelty Southern Hop boosted the interest in class parties. Bill Miller ' s orchestra played for dancing, games were enjoyed, and an interesting floor show plus re- freshments added attractiveness to the party. Paf e Tiventy-Eif ht
