MQQWa 2 THE SENIORS Uhr Gllaaa nf Ninvtevn Tbfmvntg-Zlliur N the year one thousand nine hundred and twenty-one the greatest event in the history of Ann Arbor I-Iigh occurred: the class of '25 was enrolled True, there were no special preparations made for our reception, but we frankly admit that at that time our great virtue, valor, and worth were not appreciated, XVe labored under the shadow of misunderstanding for the entire first semester. VVe were called fresh, due to our boyish and girlish enthusiasmsg the Soph- omores claimed that we were discourteous 'because we often ran to our classes that we might not be late, and because we asked so- many questions. It was only natural that we should wish to know of the laws and customs of our school, yet we were branded as obnoxious. I-Iowever, by strict adherence to our studies and by aiming to please, we soon acquired an unequalled reputation as a class. With sucha reputation behind us and a wonderful future before us, we be- came Sophomores. We were very wise indeed and 'were greatly shocked by the ignorance of the incoming Freshmen, Immediately we set about to teach them, and a very good job we made of it, Even at this early stage in our history we began to be felt in all branches of school life. We won the lightweight interclass football championship and the heavyweight basketball championship. In this competition two stars who have now reached the highest pinnacle of athletic fame were discovered: Edward VValsh and Donald I-Ianna. In their Senior year both were captains, one of the football team, the other of the basketball team, Pete I-Ianna was also our Soph- omore class president, and under his leadership we became an organized body which was soon to take its place in history. W7e were also represented in debating and dramatics, while our honor roll was always large. Our junior year was one of quiet and efficient preparation for the final per- formance of the class of '25. During that year two new activities were added to the school: they were the I-Iigh School opera and the Student Council. Vvith the help of several students of the University School of Music the comic opera, Pinafore, was given with great success. The Student Council was organized in the spring and the president elected for the following year, That thig Council has been and is a success' was proved by the competent way it handled the ninety delegates that convened 111 Ann Arbor for the first State Student Council Con- vention this spring. Last fall we entered on the last lap of our I-Iigh School education, Early in October we got together to name our leaders for this last lap and for the nnal goal of High School life, Commencement Day. For the first time in the histoq, Gf the school, the senior class chose a girl for president: Alice UHdC1'XKrOOd- Under her efficient leadership plans were consumated for all that goes with graduation. Ag we part on Commencement Day, each one of us will look back and sum up just what he has done that has been worth while in this first enterprise of our lives Though we part, we can never be really separated. The spirit of the class of '2 will always be present in the future great men and women of the nation,
