Weiner THE JANUARY CLASS ANY INNOVATIONS were made by the 147 members of the 1938 January graduating class. The twenty-five honor students were given an exam- ination at Frick Training School with students of similar rating from the other city high schools to determine those who were to graduate with high honor. This was the first class to use this method as grades had always been the basis in past years. Nine students were graduated with this high honor rating. Class standing was obtained this year by using grades from the last six semesters of high school work, rather than the last four. A Senior Honor Assembly was held the last period on January 19, the last day of school for the graduating class, instead of the last Friday as had been the custom. All seniors who had earned honors, such as honorary awards, team letters, etc., were seated on the auditorium stage and were presented to the senior school. For the first time a matinee performance of the class play was not given. Instead, a committee of ten was chosen from each report room to 'be present at the first part of a dress rehearsal of The Youngest by Philip Barry. The play was halted at several points so that the audience might give their reaction to the play, the new amplifying system and the visibility. The evening performances of The Yozmgcst were given on December 15 and 16. This year the class program was presented at night, breaking the practice of giving it the last afternoon of school. On the evening of January Z5 this program, a Minstrel Revue, was presented to a full house. Even the commencement ceremony its-elf was subject to change. For the first time the A Cappella Choir sang at graduation. This was made possible by the use of the organ for the recessional. The June graduating class presented two baskets of flowers instead of one. Each graduate was given a rose as he left the plat-form, this also 'being an innovation. This class was the first to receive the new style diploma which is in the form of a small portfolio instead of a large scroll. Thus it can be seen that the January graduating class of 1938 has done its part in the progressive advancement which must always mark the pupils of Taylor Allderclice High School. 21
