Ernst, teacher of printing at South Park since the opening of the high school, was a sad blow to the members of the faculty and the stu- dent body. lVIr. Ernst had endeared himself to all with Whom he came into contact and his selfless interest contributed immeasureably to the wellbeing of the school. In lllarch, Mr. Ernest P. Kionke, Head of the Classical Language Department at South Park, was promoted to the newly created position of Director of Classical Languages for all the high schools of the city. Mr. Kionke had long been a faithful and loyal worker at South Park and he carried with him into his new position the best wishes of the entire faculty and student body. The increased registration, the death of Mr. Ernst and the promotion of hir. Kionke necessitated the addition of many new teachers to the faculty. For the second consecutive year, the lnterscholastic Debating Contest was won by South Park. Both debates were won in the fall and one debate in the spring. In the lnterscholastic Boys' Oratorical Contest, David Roche took second place, and Anna Nlae lN'IcCarthy received honorable mention in a statewide essay contest spon- sored by the Sons of the American Revolution. i South Park participated in athletics as enthusiastically and wholeheartedly as in former years. ln the Harvard Cup Football series, the Yale Cup Basketball series and the Cornell Cup Baseball series, South Park's showing was most creditable. Equally creditable was the schoo1's record in the lnterscholastic Cross Country Run and in the Golf and Track meets. Christmas at South Park was celebrated in the traditional manner. Three per- formances of the colorful f'Christmas Spirit were given, two on successive afternoons and one for adults in the evening. Many of the former students wended their way back to South Park to join in the ever old and ever new Christmas carols and to live again memories of the happy days at high school. The Alumni Association re-union was held on the evening of December 26. The banquet was served in the cafeteria with Doctor Bapst as the guest of honor. George Prenatt, President of the Association presided. The banquet was followed by danc- ing in the spacious gymnasium, which had been beautifully decorated for the occa- sion with multi-colored lights and Christmas greens. The officers elected for the new year were President, George Prenattg Vice-President, John Clinton, Treasurer, Mary Travers and Secretary, Mary Bess Hamm. Senior Day-that day of days for the prospective graduates-was observed on June lst. The usual impressive exercises were held in the auditorium in the pres- ence of the seniors and their mothers, followed by the parade of the students and the planting of the class ivy. Dining and dancing for the seniors in the evening brought a memorable day to a happy and successful close. And so, the school year of 1932-33 draws to an end-a year, which like a page out of life, has been full of changes and eventful happenings-but the spirit of South Park still goes forward, full of hope and confidence of greater things yet to be .
