Fifteen of them belonged to the Scholarship Society, twelve to the or- chestra and sixteen to the Glee Clubs. We had some very outstanding students among these graduates: the founders of the Hamilton Aviation Club, Girls League pres- ident, and three sets of twins. Some of the best athletes left Hamilton with this class. We know that these students will make a success of themselves and we wish them luck. Graduates Hamilton will lose eighteen members of its senior orchestra. These people will possibly enter the orchestras of Polytechnic or Wilson High Schools. Twenty-seven girls and thirteen boys must take the places of the graduating members of the senior glee clubs. Hamilton is very proud of its songsters and song- tresses. Polytechnic and Wilson will receive twenty-three members of the Hamilton Scholarship Society. Although this is a small percent ofthe graduating class, we are proud to have them represent us in the honor organization. The ninth grade boys have been very for- tunate in their athletics. They have not lost a game this year to any other school. Page Elglznn
