G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT 19 SOPHOMORES -1 CLASS OFFICERS PRESIDENT-Norman Roof VICE PRESIDENT-Carol Plott SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY The class of '34 entered Old Main Room on the eighth day of September, 1930. On September 25, 1931, with Miss Phillippy act- ing as our advisor, we elected the following officers: President Norman Roof Vice Pres. Carol Plott Secretary Dorothy Ryder Treasurer Mildred Grove This year the class was permitted mem- bers in the Student Council and besides the president of the class Alta Ruth Martin and Mark Gilbert were elected. The class held a weenie roast with the Freshman Class at Cold Spring Park, with Miss Phillippy, Miss Gentzel, and Mr. Grove as our chaperons. Many enjoyed the lunch SEC RETARY-Dorothy Ryder TREASURER-Mildred Grove which was made up of roasted weenies, marsh- mallows, pickles, and rolls. Later in the fall on Halloween evening many of our class enjoyed the Hallowe'en par- ty held in the Gym with the rest of G. H. S. Before we could realize it, our Christmas vacation was here. After returning to school we found that Mid Winter tests were about to take place. Spring came and with it on April 6th the Spring Frolic, which was given by the Alumni Association. Many from our class attended the Spring Frolic and had a very nice time dancing and playing cards. The end of the term is just about here so we say goodbye to the History of the Class cf '34 until next year's Spotlight is pub- lished. -Dorothy Ryder

18 G. H. S. SPOTLIGHT We now are on the final cruise. On waves we still are tossing. Our vessel strongly built of steel Within the gale is rocking. The storm of test just now is o'er. Our hearts with joy are leaping. Vacation's come. Our work is done. On Senior Shore we're resting. And to our most noble Pilots , We say with deepest regards, May your lives still be to others What your lives have been to ours. -Dwight L. Grove THE NARCISSUS Have you ever seen this Hower Growing in some shady bower With its straight and slender stalk? Would you ask, if it could talk: Who gave you all that pretty green That makes you look like some fair queen? Who made your stem so slim and straight? Why do you look as though you wait For some strange knight in armor bright, With hair and eyes as dark as night, To come and woo you where you are As brilliant as some distant star '? In stories there are legends old That once the ancient sages told Of this sweet flower of the lea, That make it dearer still to me. Its gold heart nestled in petals white Seems wrapt around in radiant light, To which there's naught I can compare, It must be of some substance rare. Its face uplifted to the sky As though to speak to God on high, It speaks its love in silent prayer, In tones and accents sweet and fair. Off'ring incense as a token Of its praise as yet unspoken To the Lord of life and Love, In His heaven high above. -Martha Julia Fletcher STRIVING FOR THE GOAL As a ship upon the ocean Pushing through the fiercest storm, Likewise we are ever sailing, On some water we are borne. As a ship upon the ocean Plowing on against the tide We must too keep forward striving Or to danger we may ride. As a ship upon the ocean Struck by every plunging wave, We are too preparing for them We have courage to be brave. As a ship upon the ocean Must for others burdens bear, So must we, along 1ife's- pathway, Carry more than just our share. As a ship upon the ocean Sailing on in thickning mist, May we list for warning signals, Out of danger, we insist. As a ship upon the ocean That is near a dangerous shoal May we keep our lives from shipwreck WE ARE STRIVING FOR THE GOAI' --Dwight L. Grove THE STUDENT'S SONG O heartless oppressors of man! O faculties far and wide! It is not the standard that you raise When you crush all sense of pride. Study - study - study, Till the mind is weary with toil, And the wheels buzz about in your head, And you wish you were under the soil. Work - work - work, As prisoners work for a crime Work - work - work, From weary chime to chime. 'Tis this to be a slave To the faculty's call and beck. We dare not waver, we dare not crave, Some mind it must surely wreck. --Howard Long
