RHODODENDRON SENIOR CLASS HISTORY rpHIS class has grown like a sturdy young plant. The tender sprouts 1 came up into a strange world, where It was In danger of being tram- pled on or crushed by the older and more experienced life around It. But it survived, and the next year showed possibilities of becoming a great oak. or maybe tumble weeds, for the class had very little root to hold it down. It has always had a bouncing nature, evidenced by the way some members of the class bounced In and out of school. Our tumble weed grew and began to bud. giving promise of becoming a beautiful plant. In its final year our tumble weed is revealed to be really the class of 32. bursting with flowery ideas, some of which resulted In the activities of the class' senior year. Now that the flowers have come and gone, the class is going, we fear, to seed, but we will always remember its major projects, the plays, picnics and dances that have made it what it is. The class of 1932. under the leadership of their president. Robert Dansingburg. were extremely active this year. Besides being outstanding in football, basketball, baseball, track, and being well represented in the operetta, they presented the Senior Play, “The New Coed. and the Senior Ball, on April 29 and May 6. respectively. At graduation, the speakers will be Dorothy Revell as Valedictorian and Dorothy Etter as Salutatorian. When juniors, two major projects were puf over the Junior Prom—a scene of old Creole days, and the Junior Vodvil, In co-operation with the operetta. That year they also gave an Armistice Day assembly and helped to give chenille letters to the root ball boys. In their rreshman year, they presented caps and socks to the baseball boys. After putting over such a remarkable program, through their possession of many stars in music, drama, scholarship and athletics, this Senior Class will be well remembered in the coming years.
