INTERCLASS CONTEST The Interclass Contest of Ada High School is an amicable struggle in the literary field held annually between the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. It was innovated in 1907 by Doctor C. H. Freeman as an outlet for class spirit. It originally embraced all four upper classes but in later years only the upper three have contended. It promotes good sportsmanship, independence of thought, and extensive research on the parts of the students. One of the highlights of the year is to be found in this altercation. It is interesting to note that it ie a distinctive feature of our high school. There aro four events of each contest—readings, orations, short stories, and essays. Each class elects four students, one from ea.ch class competing in each event. Until this year the Senior and Junior classes each took part in a debate and two other events. As a temporary measure the Student Council, the sponsor of Interclass, decided against the old arrangement which has existed for some time and substituted the above plan. The names of the various interclass contestants for this year are as f ollows: Essays: Readings: Orations: Short Stories: Joyce Moore, Sophomore; Chester Neff, Junior; Joe Ernsberger, Senior. Ruby Baughman, Sophomore; Patty Rice, Junior; Patty Ryan, Senior. Wilma Shadley, Sophomore; Dorothy Rodgers, Junior; Gerald Lamale, Senior. Gloria Welsh, Sophomore; Miriam Dearth, Junior; Carolyn Snyder, Senior. The Senior Class won the contest this year. SCHOLARSHIP TEAM Two students are chosen each year to represent their classes in a general state scholarship test. The subjects included are Social Problems, Physics, Chemistry, English, Plane Geometry, Algebra, Biology, General Science and Latin.
