There were about one hundred Freshmen as we climbed the stairs that hot September morning. Our race had begun. We resolved to Work diligently for the task was difficult. At our first Freshmen assembly Richard CDickD Harman was chosen president of the class. To him We looked for guidance and advice. On returning the next fall we found that most of our team were still in the race. We were Sophomores, the youngest group in the Senior Hi. We organized and elected Robert Manning our leader. The fall of '29 we were Juniors. We had reached the third lap in the race of our high school life. With great care We chose Monroe fMonyJ Stevenson our leader. Upon him devolved the responsibility of the Jun- ior-Senior Banquet, which was an affair that we shall never forget. Those of us who were able to safely pass all the stumbling blocks now approached the goal-Seniors. There were nearly seventy of us. Being anxious to organize, we met shortly after returning to school. We select- ed Friel Ulrich, president, who although small has great mental ability. Now we are nearing the end of our race and We approach graduation. Our class has been well represented in all activities of the school. We hope to succeed in the World as We have during our high school career. -Wanda Schlup '31 Page 26 x illll

p..a.--1 di - sl uf xml 2 il 1 X ,HHH ' 'as ...Prophecym I always did have a mania for collecting curios. First it was postage stamps and foreign coins to which my hours of accumulation were so arduously devoted. That was when I was a. senior in the Upper Sandusky High School in 1931: this curio activity of mine was a source of much interest to my classmates. Often their ridicule was showered upon me, but never-the-less they appeared to enjoy viewing my collection. True to my youthful interests, I am now the proprietress of Ye Antique Shop in the city of Cleveland. It is the twenty-sixth day of May in 1941. Just ten years ago tonight we graduated from good old U. S. H. S. On this very morning I had been taking an invoice of my shop. What mem- ories it revived. Yes, my classmates had remembered how I liked to gather together this and that. They had all catered to my whim and sent me souvenirs which were symbolic of their various professions. Indeed, my former comrades had engaged in a regular Arthurian Crusade just as we had pledged to do that senior year in '31. They had traveled to many realms and conquered many fields of activity and learning in those ten years. Charlotte Altenberger, who was now directing a hotel orchestra, had sent me a baton which was presented to her by YValter Damrosch. A frequent guest at this hotel was Franklin Byrd whose contribution to society was his famous modern version of the nursery rhymes. He had sent me the latest edition of these jingles. In my imagination I heard shouting and saw a group dressed in athletic suits. In front of this group of eager girls stood Jane Ncumeister and Ruth Armstrong. These two physical education teachers had sent a whistle-cord and a whistle. Kath- leen Moloney was the swimming instructress in the same school. A life saving em- blem represents her aquatic profession. Helen Gatchell had become known as the second Greta Garbo to the movie world. Her wealthy patron, Edith Barth, very graciously mailed for my collec- tion the purse carried by Miss Gatchell in her last picture. Leah Jeanne Kotterman and Helen Cook sent their latest beauty preparation from their Broadway Saloon. Wanda Schlup and Catharine Good were teachers in Wellesly College, Wanda presiding in the history department, and Catharine studying in France, where she had been sent abroad by the language department. On a recent trip to- Cleveland Wanda had given me a history manual which she had prepared. I was quite surprised, when opening my mail the other day, to find a post card of the Singing Tower from Mildred and Dorothy Feeley. Those girls had helen enjoying a sojourn in Florida since the first of January. Elizabeth Peters had sent a pressed rose from the corsage which she. had worn in her operatic debut. Margaret Fox had been her accompanist. Helen Stephan sent a program from London where she had recently been featured by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. A bulky package from Velma Spencer and Naomi Frey contained a. rock from the summit of Pikes Peak. This rock had been obtained by the girls themselves while touring the West. They highly recommended the service received at the fill- ing stations owned and supervised by Wilson French and Noble Earp. Catherine Gillen and Gladys Iams are Spanish interpreters in New York: they added to my collection the personal gift of a beautiful Spanish Shawl. Dorothy Schwilk had become the blushing bride of Floyd Culver. Dorothy had thoughtfully provided me with a piece of her wedding veil. Thelma Krock sent me her latest musical composition. She is now playing a pipe organ in a well known London Cathedral. ' Page 27
