g2...,.E THE CAULDRQN ....... ., Q Senior Class Historq Iii Four short years ago our high school course loomed before us. We, a group of one hundred twenty, entered the portals of the Arnold High School temple of knowledge as green as any class could ever be. But as days went on, we advanced from our green stage to a more dignified position. As Freshmen, nothing very important happened, except that we had the honor of receiving the beautiful orange and blue pennant presented by Miss Smith. Our class was well represented in football and basketball. In the spring of 1926, we took the examinations that were necessary. Thus--the end of our Freshman year. We returned the next year as Sophomores. This year our number was dimin- ished considerably. The Sophomores had the honor of being the first class to use our new stage. . After many more embarrassing moments we found that we were called Juniors. The first important event was the selection of our motto, To Be Rather Than To Seem. We believe that we have carried out this motto to its greatest ex' tent. We were in financial distress. That meant that we had to do something to make money so that we might give our Seniors a banquet. We sold candy, held a Hallowe'en party and several roller skating parties. Then came the matter of a class play. The farce comedy The Arrival of Kitty was presented the night of Decem' ber 9. This play went off with a bang. In the latter part of our Junior year class fights started. The juniors painted the town, and the junior colors waved from the tops of the flag pole. The last important event of our Junior year was a banquet held in honor of the Seniors. After the banquet and speeches the happy throng went to the Elk's Home where dancing was the special feature. Before we were aware of the fact we were called Dignified Seniors. We tried our best to live up to this word Digniiied. In fact, we had to act thus-for wasn't this the year that we were to issue the Cauldron. VVe saw a difficult task ahead of us, yet, if other classes did it, why shouldn't we. We not only decided to issue a year book, but in addition to make this year book the best ever known in the history of the Cauldron, The staff was selected to carry on the necessary work. This seems to have been our busiest year. We held skates, dances, hot dog roasts, selected our rings fOh, what excitementj, chose our invitations, and gave our Senior Play entitled Clarence, May 7 we were true honored guests at the banquet held by the juniors. Then commencement came, -ever too soon. We left the portals of our old Alma Mater to battle with the world. This departure was very sad, yet glorious. Sad because we left the school we loved so dearly. Glorious be' cause we had revealed our goal. 'l .v'-xitx'-rmr

3'7 E THE CAULDRON tZ5ks'S kA Class Prophecq lit It was a June day, twelve years after graduation from high school. I awakened reminding myself that I was to meet a friend of mine at a hotel. I decided that since it was such a nice day, I would walk. I started out and soon came to a group of people standing in front of a large building. Vklhen I asked someone what the trouble was, I was told that everyone was viewing the new Cathedral of Learning put up by Frank Healy in which he was to teach all science teachers a thing or two. Since I was in a hurry I could not stop. On my way to the hotel I passed a large news stand. When I stopped to buy a magazine, who do you think sold it to me? The proprietor-Mr. Elmer Tusing. I came to the hotel, and since my friend wasn't quite ready, I sat down in the lobby and read the magazine I had bought. It was entitled L'Who's who. These are some of the things I read: Mr. Louis Almasy, staff physician of Sleepy Hollow Hospital, is trying to entice the public by his big cuts in prices and otherwise. Miss Jane Potts, a nurse of the above mentioned hospital, fainted at the sight of a drop of blood. Mr. Alfonce Carroll has acquired the position of Editor of the New York Times. Miss Antoinette Salvator is at last married because she thinks it is better than being single. This is despite her protests against marriage while in high school. Miss Libbye Horwitz, the acrobat of the day, rolled down a winding stairway without getting a scratch. She learned this in A. H. S. Some people have rotten luck. Miss Ava Luke was going to obtain a job acting as Miss Mary Pickford's double, but Miss Pickford bobbed her hair. Miss Faye Boyer has opened a beauty shop in which she will take care of blond hair. She knows how. Mr. James Puglisi is running for the presidency of the U. S. His experience dates back as far as 1929. Miss Muriel Johnston has edited a book on How to Play Basketball. Mr. Harold Barrett has become manager of the Central Drug Company after all these years of strenuous work. Mr. Anthony Kutylo has at last become famous in the line of art. He draws for all high school annuals. Miss Ernestine Resh is now known as Somebody's Stenogf' Mr. Harry Weimer is opening an office in which he will each everyone how to waste time. Mr. William Higgins announces his new profession-he is an undertaker. Twenty-two
