SENIOR B The Senior B Class has been as active this year as any other class in the school. Sports, dramaties, scholarship, social events—in fact, it has participated im all M. U. Hl. S. activities. In football, basketball, baseball, tennis and track, the IV B’s are prominent. It really takes a number of good players to enable a class to come out second in an interclass track meet, as this class did. Thekla Parnett and Fillmore Koenig surprised the audience in their interpretations of the leading roles in the Junior play of 1926, “The Youngest.” Another dramatic event of the year wa s the annual operetta, “The Bo’sn’s Bride,” directed by Miss Virginia Short. Fill- more Koenig, Stanley Warburton and Opal Knox represented the Senior B class in this production. The Junior A party in the autumn was very successful, but the Junior-Senior prom, given in June by the Junior A’s and the Senior B's was even more successful. Another field has been attempted by the Senior B’s, which shows that their talents are by no means limited. Three members of this class were represented on the interscholastic debating team. Isn't this a remarkable showing ?

The traveller, slowly mounting the slope on the lean burro, re- minded me for all the world of “The End of the Trail.” As | sat pondering, my attention was again attracted to the stranger. ‘There seemed to be something familiar—I knew it could only be a resemblance—but at last, to my surprise and astonishment, “Bone s” Bareroft approached me with an old-time greeting. Seeiny her reminded me of Kd Schroeder, so [| inquired about him. ed, it seems, has become keeper of a light-house. Between us, we have kept in touch with the Class of ’27.
