GARNIST AND GRJ Y CLASS HISTORY ln September, 1920, several hundred boys and girls took up the thread of their school work again. Some were at the starting post, others were in the middle of the course. and still others were entering upon the last lap in this period of their education. This last group is the one in which we are particularly concerned. Great ex- citement and plenty of interest was manifested in the selection of the class oflicers, for it was fitting and necessary to organize early. A wise selection of leaders resulted in the perfect co-ordination of the individual members. Frank Lochner was elected president, Edward Casey, vice-president, Gerald VValdbillig, corresponding secretary: Grace Forbes. recording secretary, and -lean Sheehan, treasurer. - The amount of the dues was decided upon and a committee appointed to take care of the rings and pins. Un December 16, the usual Senior llublic was given. 'lihis awoke much of the dormant talent of the members and brought to light a diversity of skill in declamation, recitation. music and dramatics. Then, on February Q, IQZI. Frank Lochner, our manly president, a boy well noted for his excellence in scholarship and athletics, and possessing those ethical quali- ties which endeared him to the hearts of all the students ofthe school, was taken away. lVe surely lost a friend. a counsellor and a leader by that swift stroke of the grim reaper. It was well, however, that we had the efficient Vice-l'resident, Casey, to fall back on. The senior class. under his guidance and with his assistance. passed resolutions on our president's death and had them framed and presented them to the school. The most touching mark of respect and sorrow was shown in the attendance of practically the entire senior class at Frankls funeral. Soon it became necessary to consider whom we should favor with our picture order. ln the meantime we were being snapped right and left by other photograph- ers. A group picture was taken. which will probably grace and adorn the front page of one of our dailies. VVe want to make class day one of the most impressive occasions in the annals of the High school. The class day officers have already been chosen. There was a great deal of real spirit and enthusiasm shown in the elections. Nliss Helena Cook, for class poetess, Harriet Fort, propbetessg Ruth Reedy, class will, and the only representative of the L' sterner sexfl Nlerrill Patterson, as class historian. lluch thanks are due to the faculty, who have loyally supported and advised the senior class, and to the members of the class itself. who have made possible the unusual success of the organization, and have contributed to the attainment of the highest aims in scholarship. athletics and deportment.
