Class History 29fA In his Presentation Speech at Commencement, the President of the Class of '29fA, Victor Dobras, gave a brief resume of the history and accomplishments of his class. In response to numerous requests made by members of the student body, the Scimitar Staff submits for publication the following excerpt from his speech: Fellow citizens, chagrined taxpayers, and parents: Tonight we meet in commemoration of an event which represents the consumf mation of four years' hard unmitigated study. fLoud guffaws, but the speaker con' tinues desperatelyj Four years ago we entered this noble institution in a most deplorable state of mediocrity-mere Freshmen, with a hard and dubious future. fllhe Class of '29fA falls to sobbing at the recollection of it all., But we were not to be discouraged! No, indeed. Not us, with that Kentucky blue, blood in our veins! We fought! long and valiantly, and now, the fort is ours! fBut the audience didn't seem to care a darnj Freshman Algebra, English, Latin, and the rest-they all lay conquered at our feet. But woe to him who, lured on by a false sense of security, fell to the wayside dissipating in College Humor and malted milks. Now the Sophomore year, folks, could be compared to the Freshmen year in only one way. It was lots worse. The way the Seniors treated us Sophies was simply scan- dalous. Just why I don't, know. We were pretty good looking at a distance. I guess we couldn't get far enough away to suit them. And then the way they referred to us as mental defectives and inebriates, and such names not even fit for the faculty. One fellow in particular said he thought we were a bargain because we were half off. A person like that ought to have two necks so they could hang him by both. Thank God there is an end to all evil. The Junior year was vastly more enjoy' able than the Sophomore year. Of course any change would have been an improve' ment. We took a greater part in school activities. We weren't such a hot sketch in the class room, but we sure were the big noise at the library. At any rate we were no longer counted such a disgrace to the school as previously. But, ladies and gentlemen, the best was yet to come. The Senior year, with its banquets, parties, intelligence tests, gumfchewing, and ninth periods. This class, conf trary to the expectations of the faculty, made a very creditable showing in scholar' ship. Grace Hug was the honor student. Other students distinguished themselves in various ways. Paul Penfield, for example, claims the distinction of being almost hit once by a Rolls-Royce. Some of the class shieks bought derbies and wore them, after dark but most of us clung to the theory that the only proper place for a derby is at the end of a slide-trombone. In spite of everything however, we find ourselves here tonight, a class that Lorain High School may well be proud of, and a class that IS proud of L. H. S. Walter Brauninger. Seventeen
