rr' , S . jr ifiliitaimiiiie niet-i f T-Iallowe en social This party was given in the gym and had much better success than our former one Our junior year in as a year that offered a b1g chance for the class of 23 to shine, and we went thru with the sarne old spirit. Qur officers this year were: Kenneth Smith, President, Robert Sifritt, Vice Presidentg Freda Foreman, Secretary, Richard Scott, Treasurer. NVe elected the most important members of the Quiver Staff this year, so that they might be ready to start right in their work for us early the next rear. They also put out the last three issues of that year's Quiver Junior. This ended our Junior year, leaving the most important before us-our Senior year. ln September 1922, for the last time we startedin the work of the new year. Not much time was lost before the election of officers took place. 'Richard Scott, President, Arthur Messenger, Vice President, Mary Duna- than, Secretary, Carroll Kerr, Treasurer, were the officers chosen. Soon after this, the remaining members of the Quiver Staff were decided upon. The first big project was the Entertainment Course. The old class spirit arose and every one helped to make this course the success that it was. The Senior boys' basketball team won the championship in inter-class basketball and the girls made a fine showing. Again, we had splendid de- bate teams, and tied with the Juniors. The majority of all Varsity teams were Seniors. A Hallowe'en social and a Valentine social diverted our attention from school work to entertainment. The most important events, that followed however, were ,Junior-Senior Banquet, Stunt Day, Class Day, Commence- ment sermon and finally Commencement. VVe have taken part in all school projects and with the help of the Faculty have in a measure prepared ourselves for our part in life'sAgreat drama. It is with regret we leave Harding High School, and pass into the ranks of the' Alumni, but we shall always strive to bring but praise to our Alma Mater. Seventeen

ll-llll'lllllllG nies jf 3 ' l Senzor Class H isiory As happens every September, so it happened in this particular Septem- ber of 19195 a new class entered Marion High School. The class of ,ZS be- gan its four year journey, and as Freshmen were subjected to the usual treatment, inflicted at the enjoyment of the upper classmen. VVe soon be- came accustomed however, both to the jests, and routine of the school. Our class decided that we had better go thru the storm, under leaders that would guide the way and help us to strengthen the small spark of life we had been able to show under the burden of ridicule the other classes bequeathed us. These leaders were as follows: President, Robert Gunderg Vice President, Edwin Spohng Secretary, Margaret Keelerg Treasurer, El- mon Starr. Soon after being organized we entered into all the activities of the high school. Our class was represented in inter-class debates, and girls' and boys' basketball. Our boys' basketball team was surely a fine squad and put up some fights for us that shall always be remembered. Our team and the Seniors tied in inter-class games and we had high hopes of beating them and winning the loving cup Fate was against us, for the Seniors beat us, but by only a few points. Vlfe shall never forget the way East Hall was decorated next morning-black crepe and a rusty tin-cup! ! l l VVe had three members on our class debate team. This team likewise tied with Seniors in Inter-Class Debates. For three months strength was gathered to make the year a success, and a genuine peppy bunch returned to assume the role of Sophomores. Yes, we were Sophomores, but no one seemed to give us much heed. All atten- tion was turned towards East Hall-there were more Freshmen. Very soon after school began we elected the following officers: Edwin Spohn, Presidentg Rhu Cheney, Vice-President, Harriet VVade, Secretaryg Kenneth Smith, Treasurer. Again this year all activities and school projects received hearty sup- port from the Sophomores. Among our good times in our career as Sophomores is to be listed our Sixteen
