Th.0 Athenian r o r c j' r c c f cr SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Triumphantly, yet fearfully, in the fall of 1934, forty-three nervous freshmen timidly enter the famed assembly hall of A. C. H. S. After becoming accustomed to their new surroundings, they elect class officers to start them on the path of success. Next, we find this same class, one year later, still continuing its search for knowledge under the excellent leadership of the faculty. During the following year of ’37, the high points of interest are: the Junior Class Play, ‘‘The Man from Nowhere”, the Junior-Senior Banquet, and going to the State Basketball Tournament at Champaign, Illinois. Another year of school rolls by, the usual ceremonies take place, and we step forth to assume the dignities and responsibilities of our senior year. We, the members of this senior class, unite in thanking Robert Fisher and Paul Thrasher for the splendid effort they put forth in obtaining school dances, and we hope the under-classmen will enjoy to the fullest this privilege which we have won for therm. We have gained and lost many companions during the four years now past, and during these years many pleasures have been ours, and all too soon the timekeeper shouts, “Time’s up. Ready for graduation.” “Again the silent wheels of time, Their annual round have driven.” —E. J. M., ’38. Six
