IT IS with regret that we, the Class of January, l937, walk through these halls as students for the last time. The pictures which adorn these corridors, the auditorium where we have heard much helpful advice from our principal, Dr. Frank L. Cloud, the classrooms where those unforgettable little incidents occurred, the gymnasium where we have worked and played together-all these will be fondly remembered at the mention of Frankford High. Within these pages, you will find the dedication, messages from Dr. Cloud and Miss Roth, appreciations to teachers who have been especially helpful to our class, the list of the entire faculty without whom the school would be useless, and the history of Frankford High School.
