BLANCHE KRIER It has been said that character is revealed by what we do in our leisure. The record of the extra-curricular activities of Blanche Krier bear witness to her character. A member of her Class Basketball and Hockey teams, an enthusiastic worker in the Press Club, assistant business manager of the Oracle, member of a Championship Debating Team, and class president—these are some of the extra things Blanche did in school. As we close the record, we feel that we can almost hear her say with her characteristic courage: “Sunset and evening star, A nd one clear call for me; And may there be no moaning of the bar, When I put out to sea. ” WILSON UNDERCOFFLER President of the Vocational Club, actor in three plays, baseball and basketball star, outstanding student in the trigonometry class, and, in the words of Mr. Weirick, “the best football manager in five years!” So it was with Wilson Undercoffler, in school and afterwards in life, participating joyously in every activity until the very end. We feel somehow that he has gone in answer to a call to a higher and fuller life. “ For the journey is done and the summit attained, and the barriers fall, Though a battle to fight ere the guerdon be gained, The reward of it all. I was ever a fighter, so—one fight more, The best and the last!11 7
