i E PAGE 14 5 H rl IVIWII SENIOR CLASS OST of the graduating class entered Garfield in the fall of 1929, and for the iirst two weeks wandered about the halls, getting into the- wrong classes, forgetting where our next class was, and making a general nuisance of ourselves. We were not settled enough, as freshmen, to organize, but under the able leadership of M. . ISS Schwedes, Dean of Girls, we managed to hav e our picture in the Benny of 1930. At the beginning of our sophomore year we were eager for the organization. At our first meeting, which was called by Miss Schwedes, Miss Inez Kell y was chosen to its activities. At last, on Tuesday, February 9, at our second sophomore meeting, we chose our officers. Kathleen Newton was president, with Howard Danner vice president and John Ai lead our lively bunch in kman secretary and treasurer. One of the big features of our sophomore year was the h in May. sop omore picnic held at Deming Park The junior class organized early in the fall semester with the election of new class office : P ' ' ' ' rs resident, James Hughes, Vice President Kathleen Newton' Secretar W lt , , Y, 21 01' Snedekerg Treasurer, Garland Wintersg Miss Inez Kelly, faculty advisor. In view of the fact that there was no Royal Purple, four junior members were appointed to the Benedictus staff: Assistant Editor, Russell Welborng Assistant Business Manager, Kathleen Newton, Assistant Organizations, Katherine Strangg Assistant Circulation, Paul Giffel. A junior mixer was given in January to get members of the class ac . . . quainted. It took place in the girls' gym, and the dancing, entertainments, games, and refreshments were heartily enjoyed by all. In about the middle of the year came the time for us to choose class colors and to select class rings. After much hesitancy a beautiful gold ring was selected, and soon adorned many a fair hand in our junior class. We decided that our class colors should be Blue and Gold. Our class activi- ties for the year were climaxed by the banquet and prom, given for the seniors of 32 the first week in June, at Wiley Gym. We started our senior year by electing Stuart Smith as presidentg Kathleen New- ton, vice presidentg Walter Snedeker, secretaryg Garland Winters, treasurer. The senior play, Men Are Like That, was the talk of the school for weeks. For social activities we had a Christmas party, senior breakfast and dance, and the senior boat- ride ,and a farewell dance. Commencement activities came as a climax to a wonderful year, ending in the commencement exercises. As we seniors leave Garfield and go forth into the world, we wish to thank Miss Kelly for the guidance and assistance she has given as class advisor. We also express to the other members of the faculty our appreciation for their help and co-operation in everything we attempted. I EDITION
