.fjgrg SENICR CLASS lib The Senior Class of 1931 iinishcd its four year course of study at Santa Clara with a. season marked by the same spirit that characterized it as an active and progressive class throughout its whole school career. The Senior program, given October 24, consisted of an educative and interesting speech by Mr. Michealson on his European tour, made in the summer and fall of 1930. For their dance, held in December, the Seniors converted the gymnasium into a beautiful tropical bower. The dance, while it broke an old custom by not serving punch, was quite a success. Dr. Thomas Bailey, of the History Department of Stanford University, gave a very interesting speech on George Washington, for the Spring program, the substance of which was probably very destructive to many of the ideas hitherto held by the Fresh' men in regard to Mr. Washington. The SeniorfFaculty game witnessed the proud faculty in an inglorious defeat, much to their chagrin. The Seniors were much elated over this victory, for it is the first for the Seniors in several years. The Family Upstairs, the class play was successfully produced April 24. The prof ceeds, which with those received from selling candy, amounted to one hundred and forty two dollars, were given to the alumni Scholarship fund. Senior Sneak day at Santa Cruz was accompanied with the usual hilarity and sun' burn which come from the influence of a May day. The longfawaited graduation ceremony climaxed the high school career of the class of 1931. The speaker of the evening was james C. DeVoss, professor of Psychology at San Jose State Teachers College. He gave a very interesting and amusing talk. Musical selections by' the orchestra and vocal selections by the glee clubs, both under the direction of Mr. Harmon, were enjoyed. The Seniors then received their diplomas, and the ceremony was over. The Seniors wish to express their appreciati 1 of the kindly advice and good-will of their advisors, Miss Coeke, and Mr. Knaus, and of the everfpresent cooperation of Mr. Townsend and the faculty.
