1930 THE SPUDPICKER 1930 Senior Class History This class entered school in September, 1926, as verdant Freshmen. We held a meeting the first week of school to select the class colors, class flowers, officers and sponsor. The officers elected were: Irene Caha, presi- dent; Dorothy Hopkins, secretary; Maurine Butler, treasurer; and Miss Overton, sponsor. After much discussion, it was decided that the class colors were to be maroon and grey and the flower the red carnation. The class motto was “Semper Fidelis,” or “Always Loyal.” The class consisted of the following: Maurine Butler, Irene Caha. Ralph Baldwin, Marion Danbom, Irene Donovan, Marie Duhon, Cecil Gibson, Faye Glass, Ruby Jordan, Beryle Haile, Iola Han- sen, Agnes Harris, Ethel Headden, Gladys Katen, Dorothy Hopkins, Ruth Leager, Louie Mackler, LaVerne Mvers, Cyril Norris, William Perrine, Oscar Planansky, Audrey Rodeman, Margaret Rodeman, Vera Roland, Merle Rosenberger, Mar- garet Roth, Lyle Scott, Harold Vance, Libbie Turek and Daniel Rodeman. On October 30, 1926, we were initiated by the Seniors. When we entered school in September, 1927, we had four new members in our class. They were: Alfred Wyland, Austin Prebble, Kenneth Ball and Louis Planansky. The same class officers were elected as the year before except that Iola Hansen was elected secretary to fill the vacancy left by Dorothy Hopkins, who had moved to Omaha. Coach Durfee was elected sponsor. The class that entered school in 1928 was nearly the same as the pro- ceeding year except that Kenneth Ball, Louis Planansky, Ralph Baldwin, Lyle Scott and Audrey Rodeman had either moved away or dropped school. New students were: Doris Johnson, Bernice Fleming, Loren Taylor, Willis Hedge- cock and Jessie Cross. New class officers were: Marion Danbom, president; Iola Hansen, vice- president; Beryle Haile, secretary and treasurer; and Miss Spence was elected sponsor. Our class play was given March 8th and 9th. The annual Junior-Senior banquet was held May 10th. The room was very attractively decorated. On September 3, 1929, we reached the foothills of our Senior year, after a hard four-year struggle. Cur sponsor and class officers were as follows: Mr. Elkins, sponsor; Marion Danbom, president; Dorothy Hopkins, vice-president; and Beryle Haile, secretary-treasurer. On December 5th and 6th we gave our annual class play, “Smilin’ Through,” coached by Mr. Elkins, our sponsor. It was put over with great suc- cess. On May 7th we were entertained by the Junior class at a beautiful an 1 tasty banquet. And now, friendships dear and sacred must be broken, each member- taking his own little way down the winding pathway of life. The time will ccme when these school days shall only be golden memories of friendships that have weathered many storms and come through with colors flying. 23 Iola Hansen, ’30.

JOKES JUST WOULDN’T HELP He was up for his university examination. It was well understood that he was dumb’' intellectually, but the powers that be were anxious to pass him, for he was a fine oarsman and was needed in the crew. “Just put down something,” pleaded his tutor. ‘‘Write down anything you can and we’ll ge.t you thru somehow or other.” And he left the pupil to it. The sturdy youth sat for an hour gazing at the virgin paper before him. Then in disgust or despair he scrawled the word DAM” on the paper and left the room. Later on his tutor came up to him more in sorrow than in anger. “We can’t pass you,’’ he said glumly. “You’ve spelled it wrong.” Donald Britton: “I’m going to buy myself a harem.” Hcwaid. What do you mean? You can’t buy a harem, can you?” Donald: “Sure, I saw a sign at a gas station that said ‘Six rials for a Dollar’.”
