HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ’36 EPISODE I In September of 1932. seventy-eight green Freshmen entered the doors of Florence High to start the four years grind of school. That first year many became studious, some played, and a few dropped out. We elected Mr. Fortenier as class sponsor; Everett Irwin, President; Ralph Cherry. Vice President; Wilma Lautaret, Secretary and Treasurer: and Margaret Jane Jackson, Student Council Member. The first event, of the year was a watermelon feed near Table Mountain with the football boys as guests. A good time was enjoyed. In athletics Bill Baxter was the only Freshman to receive a letter, although many of the boys went out for football, basketball and track. The boxing and wrestling exhibition also featured some Freshmen. The girls, not to be outdone by the boys, became prominent in debate and declamation. The Freshmen girls also went out for basketball. Our second social event was a Christmas party in the gym. Many games were played and after the refreshments were served the gifts were distributed. A sudden outbreak of scarlet fever closed the school in early May and denied the Freshmen of a picnic. Tests were hurriedly taken and fifty-nine Freshmen became Sophomores. EPISODE II There were fifty-eight students that returned in the fall of ’33 and this Sonhomore class was considered one of +he best clashes in the school. This vear we elected the following officers: Everett, Adams. President; Clinton Edwards, Vice President: Marie James. Secretary: Wilma Lautaret, Treasurer; and Margaret Jare Jackson. Student Council Member. Miss Anna Jane Hitchcock our class spoc=or. Our first social event was a picnic at the Royal Gorge follow'ed by a swim at the Carlsbad Natatorium. An all-school party was given by the class in November and another in April. This year seventeen Sophomores joined Mask and Wig and thirteen assisted in production of the all-school plays. O e member of this class entered declamation and there were two in debate. There were ten boys out for football, four making letters. This was considered a very good record. Five boys played basketball, with one receiving a letter. Eight participated in the boxing and wrestling show. Seven girls of the class played in the Girl’s Basketball Tournament. This school term ended with a picnic at Smith Creek. In spite of the rain everyone had a good time and we all decided that this had been a very successful year. EPISODE III On September 3, 1934, sixty-five Juniors entered Florence High School to take up their studies. John Petry was elected President; Wilma Lautaret, Vice President; Eileen Jennings, Secretary-Treasurer: Tomalee Lewis and C. C. Moorhead, Student Council Members; Miss Dorothy Large, sponsor. A picnic at Phantom Canyon started an important year for these Juniors. In the interclass play contest, our Junior play. “In Doubt About Daisy,” won second prize. Sam Stoddard won the prize for being the second best boy actor. On November 28, our annual Junior class play, “Her Step Husband,” which was an outstanding play of the year, was given. Immediately after this, several Juniors had the honor of becoming members of National Thespians. Page 16

HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF ’36 Our class was well represented in debate and declamation. One of the members was in the finals of declamation on April 26. Several members of the class were on the staff and printing crew of the Reflector. The Junior athletes again took their share of the honors. Twelve boys were out for football, eight of whom received letters. Four of the five boys out for basketball were bearers of the letter “F”. The Juniors rated high in the track meet on April 26 and several boys went out for spring football. The Girl’s Basketball team was very good. They won the tournament from the Seniors by a large score. Prom, the most elaborate affair of the year, was given for the Seniors on May 10. The gym was beautifully decorated like a Hawaiian Island. The activities of the year ended with a picnic and swimming party. EPISODE IV Forty-three earnest Seniors started school on September 3, 1935. Our class officers were: Clinton Edwards, President; Earl Bever-stock. Vice President; Eileen Jennings, Secretary; and Wilma Lautaret, Treasurer. Student Council Representatives were Bob Carrethers. Tom-alee Lewis, and Margaret Jane Jackson; our class sponsor was Miss Helen Stockwell. On October 4, the Juniors and Senors gave a party in the gym. The entire school was invited and a large crowd was present. Our class was well represented in all athletic activities. Several boys in the class won football and basketball letters and were members of the “F” Club. The Senior girls had a basketball team of u'hich we were proud. . , , . . . ... The Thespians sponsored the inter-class play contest again this year and the Senior play, “Minerva Sets the Stage,” won second place under the directorship of Sam Stoddard. Eileen Jennings of our class won first prize for being the best girl actor in the school. Several members of the class of ’36 had the honor of becoming Thespians during the year. , „ , ,, , „ . On March 6, we all donned our “go to meetin clothes for Senior Dress Up Day, and on April 17, we had Costume Day. The annual, “Echoes of ’36,” was sponsored by our class. It was the largest annual that had been published foil several years. The greatest social event of the four years occurred on May 1 when the Juniors entertained the class of 1936 at the annual Prom. Their Dutch party was delightful and was voted a success by all seniors. On May 8. we had Kid Day, and, after seeing us the teachers were really undecided as to whether or not we were old enough to graduate. The evening of May 8 was the presentation of the Senior Play, “The Patsy.” This delightful comedy was enjoyed by a large audience. Class Day was held on May 15. The Seniors presented their gift to the school and a program was given by our class. On May 17, the Baccalaureate exercises were conducted for the graduates and on May 22, the commencement exercises were held. Speeches were given by a few selected Seniors and the diplomas were presented by Superintendent R. R. Morrow to forty graduates. Thus, the members of the class of ’36 had completed their high school careers. Page 17
