MARGIE MANSFIELD, quiet Girl Rerervery Home Ecanomicr Project, ROY D. RANKIN, artistic CLASS HISTORY On May 31, 1938, 111 seniors closed the doors on four glorious years of high school life. In later years those seniors will remember those days spent at M. H. S. as the happiest days of their lives. The class has led the school in its scholastic record, and many of the students,have brought fame and honor to their class. Being more than well represented in all school activities, the class is honored by having a senior as the president of each Senior High activity. I In 1934, approximately 153 students entered the freshman class with high hopes of attaining their greatest ambition at that time, that of becoming a senior. Now those once green freshmen have filled that ambition, some with gladness in their hearts and some with sorrow. The class chose as their ofhcersz john Schnaiter, president, Annamay Reid, vice-president, Betty Parker, secretary-treasurer. They held two successful parties in their freshman year. As they entered their sophomore year, the roll had decreased in number to 130. ln that year, joe Prewitt was chosen president, james Barrick, vice-president, Joan St. john, secretaryg and Emmadell Teeters, treasurer. The class was just beginning to realize its importance and responsi- bilities at that time. . The junior year was more successful. joe Prewitt was reelected president, Ruth Cure was elected vice-president, and Horace Adams, secretary-treasurer. The class entertained the Seniors at a very elaborate and pleasing reception. The great number of spectators proved that the prom was a success. The highly entertaining class play, Nuts to You, was ably directed by Miss Madelon O'Dell and Mr. Ralph Dorsett. In the fall of 1937, the class organized itself into the Senior Class of 1938 with Horace Adams, president, Robert Scherer, vice-president, Ruth Cure, secretary, and Mary E. Hendricks, treasurer. The Artesian staff, with the advice and untiring effort of Miss Stevens as the student advisor and Miss Rose as the Hnancial advisor, worked diligently during the year to publish this annual that they might have a record of their high school days. The class owes much of its prominence to its sponsors, Mr. Richard Gemmecke and Miss Margaret Rose. The never-to-be-forgotten events of the senior year are: the creditable performance of the class play, Mountain Mumps, given on May 13, the junior-senior prom on May 20, class day on May 243 the class picnic on May 25, the baccalaureate exercises on May 293 and on May 51, 111 students, clad in gray caps and gowns, received that long sought-after diploma, ready to face life's problems alone without the faithful aid of their teachers. 23 Arterian Herald .lldfj Arlerian .rialfg Barkelballg Track
