yu that the idea of taking classes out into the country groves for a picnic was orig- inated under the supervision of Miss Brady. with our class motto, 'To-night We Launch, Where Shall We Anchor,W in mind we took up our studies as seniors of '58. As we hoped to make this our most cherished year of high school tra1n1ng,work was taken up more seriously and whole-heartedly. We presented one of the most beautiful Christ- mas Pageantsg and with the proceeds, we started another tradition by presenting the school with a class gift. Ours was a radio. Our class was always well represented ln all school activities such as music, sports, and dramatics. Four seniors were chosen as the participants for the Eagle Dramatics Contest held at Wichita. The play 'Orv1lle's Big Date' was rated fourth out of the twenty-one plays given. On April 28, we were the guests of the Juniors at the annual junior-senior ban- quet. Scattered among these activities were numerous Biology tours,of which the two-day trip to Manhattan and Hays was outstanding. Combining our Biology trip and Sneak day, our tour was more than successful. More- over we are quite proud of the fact that our class has been the first to instigate an educational tour of this nature. Much to our sorrow, two of our original freshmen, Norbert Focke and Francis Meyer, died during our final school term. Thus far, ln the history of our schoo1,our class is the only one which has some of its meme bers deceased. We shall never forget their friendly influence and lovable disposition. And now we finally reached what we might say the goal, but it might also be termed the beginning--graduation. We seventeen students received our diplomas on the night of May 22,l938. This is only the beginning. Yes! The beginning of where we hope to an- chor and be the greatest pride to our Alma Mater--the Andale Rural High School.
