When she's out of school, the whole school surely knows it, and our class espe- cially seems like a funeral. But, when she gets back again, we all know it without having her arrival announced. Anyway we'd have a very dull class without you, MufHns. PHILIP JOSEPH PATRICK Phil GENERAL Born October 19, 1913, Groveton, N. H. 1'His cheek is his Bioyrapherf' Class B.

CLASS HISTO RY On one bright September morning in the year nineteen hundred and twenty-eight, twenty-five pupils started out to conquer from the world a high school education at Groveton High School. We were very timid and afraid at first, for this was a new and greater force with which we came in contact. With Mr. Moulton as advisor and Dorothy Gale as president we started on a vic- tory march. It was not long before we heard that we were to be initiated by the Sophomores. This was a dreaded event, but we took it light- heartcdly and planned to have our revenge on the Class of 1935. ln the fall we held a success- ful social in the gym. After the Christmas vaca- tion we came back and settled down to prepare ourselves for Freshman Prize Speaking. This proved to be the starting point of some of Grove- ton High School's greatest debaters. The class basketball tournament was an easy victory, and we felt elated over our success. School closed in june, and we were proud of having finished our lirst year of high school successfully. We returned to school as Sophomores in Sep- tember. We had lost ten faithful members, but with the help of Mrs, Lehnert as advisor and lda Austin as president we kept looking forward. It was not long before we evened our score with the Freshmen by initiating them. We entered the class basketball tournament with high hopes but were overthrown by the upper classes. This year we bought our rings which were judged to be the best ever heretofore representing G. H. S. Spring was here at last, and with it came the junior Prom at which we had a booth. School came to a close, and we looked forward with happy anticipation toward our junior year. By the beginning of our junior year, our class had diminished to sixteen. Miss Cheney was our advisor, and Ida Austin was again elected president. We began with a very successful so- cial in the gym. Soon after, we began making plans for our Senior year. We elected the USeniorian staff. Next came the junior Prom, and how we slaved to make it a success. We were pleasantly rewarded for our trouble. Once more school closed, and we were ready to become dignified Seniors. We entered the Senior Class eleven strong, the same eleven that had entered their first class- room back in grammar school. We were faced with many problems, but with Miss Cheney as our advisor and Raymond johnson as president we came through with flying colors. Our first social event was a very successful social followed by another in the spring. We then turned our attention to the production of the Senior play, The Whoofenpooffi We were next confronted with Senior Speeches. Some very interesting speeches were given before the student body. Our hardest task was the publishing of the 'fSeniorianf' We devoted much time and hard work to make this a success for it was our ambi- tion to have it exceed all other books published at Groveton High School. We were victorious in the basketball tournament. To crown our achievements of the past four years, we gave our Senior Hop. Commencement is here. Eleven of us have endured the years and our happy career has come to an end, but we are loath to leave the scenes of so many happy hours. At last We bid farewell to all these and go forth full of lusty life and burning with hope for the future, Page Sixteen ,
