No. You know, Marj, when you stop to think of it, we didn't do much in grade school, did we? It was when we went to high school that things began moving. Let's re- view our past, shall we ? There really wasn't much doing from the sixth to the ninth grades-except parties. No. Gosh, Marj, didn't we have trouble keeping a class adviser ? Yes, but the gym teachers seemed to have a lot of patience with us. When Vivian Coleman was our president, I used to sit with the rest of the kids and talk and have a swell timeg but when I was elected Sophomore president, I could really pity her. I'll never forget those talks Miss Yeager gave us on etiquette. They were beneficial. That was the year we organized our class! And made a set of by-laws, selected a class flower, president, and motto. We sponsored a movie and a one-act play, too. I forget the names now. I just vaguely remember them. The thing that stands out in my mind is the class party. Our class always wanted a party-and they always enjoyed themselves, too. I guess we did look forward to the end of the year and a party. But our Junior year we had to forget about parties and work-if we ever expected to see Washington. Yes, we worked hard, but we enjoyed it. Our work calendar was full of magazine sales, a Valentine party, a dinner for the Eldred Men s Club, the Otto Torpedo Banquet, and the Spaghetti Supper. Then came our Junior play, The Adorable Age, which was such a success. From then on we had small events-a benefit movie and a baked food sale. But the Prom was the big event of the year. The Prom was swell, wasn't it? The gym was decorated to represent a summer gar- den, with a white picket fence and flowers on the walls. Beautiful colors, too. It certainly showed that we could work if necessary. And then we were Seniors be- fore we knew it. It seems only yesterday that we were silly Sophomoresf' Time does go when you're working. At first I thought that our class couldn't work. They didn't show any enthusiasm toward new ideas. I know, Bob, but when our magazines, stationery, and Christmas cards came we all changed. Programs, plays, dime dances, baked food sales and bazaar-everything was suc- cessful-thanks to Mr. Cummings' wise advice. And then April 6 we set out to spend our hard-earned money. The trip to Washington was something we'll never forget! Then graduation! Bob, I cried. It was so impressive and important! Which all goes to prove that you are still that little girl in the fifth grade, even tho' a graduate of Otto High. XX lk 25

Class History 3 f s , A . 3 as LM..-r M I . 1 Hello, Marj ! Gee, you look funny! Hi, Bob. You don't look exactly handsome yourself. Whoever would guess that seven years from then you'd be selected the best looking boy in Otto ? Well, if we look so funny, look at some of our class mates! I wonder if Ray would have had the same effect on Adeline seven years ago ? Maybe it's a good thing she didn't come here until he was a Junior. I thought Dorothy Wilcox was the champion laugher, but Mary Wasson was cer- tainly good competition then. Seven years hasn't changed Clifford's appearance much, has it ? 24
