Thus was begun the noble experi- ment of developing the class of 1936. Our first year, under the guidance of Miss Dyer, our class advisor, and jack Read, our president, showed well our ability in scholastic and extra-curricular activities. The Sophomore reception was our outstanding social achievement. As juniors, again under the leadership of jack Read, we took advantage of most of our opportunities to set an envious record. Departing from the beaten path, we chose a class ring of yellow gold with a raised black onyx set, which will always serve as a treasured remembrance of our days at Allegany. The height of our social activity was reached in the junior-Senior prom held on May 17. Notable also was the forming of several new organizations. Miss Murray was our advisor during this year. Finally, the seemingly shortest year of our school life, our Senior year, arrived and we really began to appreciate the happiness that had been ours. At the out- set, Vaughn Abbot was chosen to guide the destinies of our class. The advisors elected were: Miss Eader, yearbook advisor, Mr. Wickard, dramatics advisor, and Mr. Davis, social advisor. At the beginning of the year, our class introduced a new type of event, the Senior acquaintance dance. Petitions circulated among the students brought about this dance, the purpose of which was to acquaint the members of the various classes with their new friends and surroundings. Now, as the year is about to end, we are preparing for the last activities of our high school days, class night, senior assembly, outing, baby night, class play, prom, and commencement. Thus as the end of what we shall always consider one of the most important periods of our lives draws near, there is in every heart, regret that school ties must be broken and yet hope that the future will bring success and happiness. 1 9 3 6 1-lil IPage 131 N Wiwm I

THE NARROWS General Braddock had a road built through the Narrows of Wills Creek intersecting the old Braddock in the neighborhood of Allegany Grove. The present Cumberland Road after passing this narrow defile which is one mile long, follows the general course of Bradd0ck's Run, north of Allegany Grove. The entrance to the Narrows, which is one mile west of Cumberland, as well as the Narrows themselves, presents one of the most magnificent scenes in the Alleganies.
