 THE WALNUT TREE SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In September, 1923, thirty-three boys and girls, the first to enroll as Freshmen in the new high school, began their search for the road to success. All were eager to gain that coveted pathway, realizing that he who finds it is assured of happiness in the end. Not knowing what to look for or where to search, the class selected as leader, Herbert Whitver, who guided it faithfully in the right direction. These boys and girls soon found it necessary to travel for four years thru a wilderness before they reached the goal. All must journey over the rocks of Academics, while many were confronted by the waters of Music, and the forests of Athletics. As from every band of pilgrims, a few fell by the way-side, but twenty-six remained to choose Audrey Kiser as leader for the Sophomore year. All made headway through Academics, six reached the shores of Music and five received recognition for Athletics. During the third year, under Cyrus Gonigam, the class progressed rapidly. It showed much talent in Academic, Athletic, Musical, and Literary activities. By the end of the year, a vision of success dawned for some from a side road, so they left the ranks of the pilgrims. In September. 192G, eighteen members entered upon the last lap of the journey to the road of success. The way was difficult, but again Herbert Whitver ably led the class. Many obstacles were overcome, do to the willingness of everyone to cooperate in all things. The class was talented; some called it brilliant. Be that as it may, eighteen boys and girls soon realized that success meant rendering a service to others, so they entered upon manhood and womanhood with joy in their hearts. Page fourteen 19 2 7
