Now we must leave thy halls, Thy sight to us recalls The love we bear for thee. Heights attained, victories won, Defeat well-borne, a deed well done, Ambition stirred, some work begun Under thy banner! Petty things to outside eyes, But, spurred on by our good friends' cries, Stronger we sought the prize- Thy proud acclaim and honor. Thy name, revered and known, A lighted torch to others thrown, Our work with thee is done, Our chapter finished. Long will we cherish thee, Dimmed will thy faults all be! Thus we shall only see Thy glory, forever!

A Lamp Unto My Feet - is the season of Lightg it is the season of Darknessg it is the Spring of hopeg it is the Winter of despairg we have everything before usg we have nothing before us. VV e are graduating! VVe have come to a halt, where from the broad highway of our high school years, branches the vague and intangible road called Future. Behind us the highway gleams with the brilliance of Fellowship. Before us the mist of the road is pricked by a few faint lights that dare to flicker palely through its dusk. These are our hopes, our plans, our dreams, whose fulfilment or failure lie in that inner darkness that our eyes cannot penetrate. There is a lamp in our hand, a light to guide us safely. It is the LAMP OF KNOVVL- EDGE. The oil was placed in its bowl twelve years ago when our teachers first gave us the OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN. We ourselves furnished the connecting link between the fuel and flame and added the VVILL TO LEARN, for a wick. The rays of our Light of Learning are spread and intensified by the chimney of EXPERIENCE. Our handle is FAITHFULNESS, that power which enables us to hold to our lamp and to our task. But we have paused long enough at the crossroads. Our hearts are eager, our feet impatient. There is time for one more glance at these comrades we are leaving. We grasp our lights. VVe fall silently out of the ranks and stand before the road. VVe salute our captain, turn our backs. Then the old command that rings down that long line of nrulberry and gold reaches us. March! Forward March! -Eloise Crutcher ,'30 i Z thirty-one 1 Hrurunmm Q mmmlnfrlru l ATHERTON M .

HIL mountain loomed before him steep and formidable. Standing at the foot, he gazed awe-struck, at its height, at the dense thickets the winding, rocky path that lay between him and the top. Then, with bowed head, he plunged on, his energy centered only on the progress he might make. his eyes unmindful of the rare beauty around him. The going was rough, the trip uninteresting. He rebuked himself for having undertaken the ascent. Halfway up he stopped to rest, and then he noticed the loveliness on all sides. He heard the deep notes of a stream tumbling down the mountain-side, saw the laurel and rhododendron bordering the path, to his nostrils came the pungent odor of pine forests. The remainder of the trip was a glorious adventure. Forgotten were the toil and discomfort of the beginning, for before his eyes unrolled all the beauty of the out- doors, with him were her treasures shared. When he reached the top his view of the surrounding country was unobstructed. Best of all, he could follow the path he had so recently ascended, recognizing familiar landmarks, reveling again in the beauties he had experienced. Our high school careers may be likened to mountain-climbing. VVe pause, on begin- ning, half-awed at the magnitude of the undertaking. Usually, the first two years are spent in conscientious study. S0 intent are we on Hcovering ground , that we fail to notice the occurrences around us. Then, at the beginning of our Junior year, we are swept into the tide of School Activities. Our school life becomes fuller, more attractive, because of the varied interests. In this case, too, the rest of the journey is a glorious adventure. As we mount nearer and nearer the summit, our high school days unfold before our eyes in colorful panorama. Memory softens disappointments, pleasures become more pleasant in reliving them. VVe have enjoyed high school tremendously, the nearer we come to commencement, the more we realize it. Make the most of school days while you have them, and remember that the small world of Atherton is just like the outside world in one respect- Give to the world the best you have, and the best will come back to you.

In the absence of this most essential gesture of Semorhood their estates have hereby passed into the hands of the administrators ' I Y l appointed by the Court, namely: Miss Louise Miss Elizabeth Miss Irene The administrators have apportioned the estates as follows: To Virginia Ross-the awe-inspiring and ample vocabulary of Ruth Dohrman, in the hope that she will excel in all oratorical competitions from this time hence. To the giant of the Freshman class, june Priser, the petiteness of Frances VValker. To Virginia Lee Gettys-the athletic ability and reserve of Eva Bauer, also a hope for the future!!! To Lida May Briggs-fat her earnest requestl the saintly expression of Augusta Selligman, that Lida may use it to beguile the teachers as A. C. S. has done. It was intended to leave the gum-masticating antics of Marie Castleman, but un- fortunately, she passed away, shortly after Graduation, due to the sudden shock, so in deference to the deceased, this was omitted. To Jane Davis-the tender ringlets of Betty Vaughn in hope that jane will some day rival America's Sweetheart. To Susan Lewis, the imposing dignity, such as it is, of Ella Riddle. To the next heroine of the Senior Play- the hair of Fanny Lang the eyes of Dorothy Shuck the nose of Elizabeth Ellis the mouth of Sarah McCampbell the teeth of Marjorie Weaver the chin of Gordon Barrickman the complexion of Jane Mercke the voice of Martine Moredock the figure of Martha Severance the hands of Dorothy Lewis the legs of Margaret Brown the disposition of Eloise Crutcher forty-four QQ: Y H-A if jr fy! i x ATHERTON the vivacity of Marie Castleman the poise of jane Hartman the wit of Mary Crawford the dimples of Elizabeth Welch To the next hero of the Senior Play: the hair of Martha Barnes the eyes of Jane Hoblitzell the nose of Sarah Sti tes the mouth and teeth of Mildred Hambleton the chin of Mary Elizabeth Langan the voice of Sarah Haley the shoulders of Elsa Baumgarten the physique of Marjorie Miller To the next new teacher of Atherton- the hair of Miss Slack the eyes of Miss Diecks the nose of Miss Jansing the mouth of Miss Clark the teeth of Miss Heil the voice of Miss Moran the complexion of Miss Tomlinson the figure of Miss Litsey the hands of Miss Bohon the chic of Miss Rosenfelder the wit of Miss Hebden the good disposition of Miss Kornfeld the humor of Miss Sweeney the patience of Miss Wigal the sweetness of Miss Frantz the diplomacy of Miss Woerner To Sue Atherton-the exquisite soprano of Alice Ponder, with a codicil to the effect that it be used only as a solo at Graduation. To whoever needs it most-the orange blazer of Mary Lewman. To Daisy Ayres-the low voice of Dorothy King, and her ability to read mournful poetry without giggling. To Eva Ray Hill-the amazing capability of Evelyn Denzinger. To Mary Bright Geore-the diabolical leer of Elizabeth Wilson, as well as Lib's earnest efforts to use it on snubbing occasions. May Mary Bright have better success than the original possessor! To Blanche Gibson-the shimmering tresses of Martha Birch, as the administrators decided Miss Gibson's hair was too pale. To the school-the sweet memory of the happy, girlish faces of the most illustrious Senior class ever graduated from the J. M. Atherton High School for Girls!!!

As it passes in retrospect before us, are we satisfied with it as a whole, or would we be more content if here and there we could erase an error, or add an achievement? Although our junior year is behind us now, and has already been written indelibly into our book of life, just beyond the horizon, farther than our eyes can perceive, lies a new year, our last year at Atherton. How we have looked forward to our Senior year ever since we first entered high school! VVe have always dreamed of how much it would mean to us, and how much we would make it mean to our school. We are happy and wise if after reviewing our past year, we may profit by its mistakes and add to its list of achieve- ments. And now, as we put our past behind us, and start forth with new hope and new energy into the unexplored tomorrow, may we resolve in our hearts to make this last year count for us and for others as an outstanding one of friendship, scholarship and service!

VVhen we first began learning to Hy, we had to become acquainted with the whole plane. So NUM it was with our school. We had to meet the teachers, to become accustomed to the ways of Atherton. All this was in our Freshman year. By hard work on our part and our instructors' part, we finally reached the place where we could start the plane our- selves. This was in our Sophomore year. We were just beginning to do things unaided. Now, as juniors, we are going to make a solo flight. We have our class officers to lead us in formation. Of course we know that our faculty is nearby in case of emergency. There are many obstacles in the way even up here in the clouds. We see numerous air pockets in the form of hard studies. There are storm clouds present also, which represent our examinations. Yet there are also beautiful masses of clouds that stand for the junior- Senior dance, the boat ride, and the English V dance. VVe see Hying in the distance, larger, more beautiful planes than ours. These, We know, must be the Seniors. They seem to sail along through rainbow colors toward a huge pot of gold, by which is standing a lovely lady who is smiling and beckoning them on. Our lieutenant signals to us that we are flying toward the same goal. She tells us that it will take two years, and maybe longer for some of us, to reach that goal. We see hovering near us numerous other planes. In these we distinguish our teachers, who signal words of cheer and suggestion to us. Their interest urges us to achieve more courage in this vast expanse of sky. As we soar onward we are hoping to reach higher altitudes of character and knowledge, so that we shall some day reach that pot of gold for which we yearn. There we know the smiling lady will give us from the wealth to be found therein, so that we may have something to help us through our greatest flight of all, the Bight through life itself.

A road runs by, a hard bumpy road. 'l:here's a steady throng of people passing with hardly a pause in the onward rush A stop just long enough to catch their breath and snatch a moment's rest, and on again they go over a rough unknown road. Unknown? No, well-known to those who have traveled it before, and they are many, and the road is well worn, but for each separate person it is fated that the way must seem ever new. And this is as it has always been. Last year, however, some adventurers chose another way, one which was practically unexplored and through a wilderness, thinking this a better, a surer, a quicker road. An experiment it was and is, and only time can tell whether it be better. Each road, the one from the grammar grades through junior high school to senior high school, and the other, from the elementary grades to high school, lead to the same destination, and ultimately they meet and pass through. together, the Halfway House. VVho shall attempt to describe the joy of the union of the travelers and the gay times they had? They compared notes and adventures and were solemn a moment when they remembered the one or two lost on the way. Then a cheer, and they are on their way again always pressing forward to that pass in the hills, graduation, that shall open a world of new opportunities and experiences. Someone has stubbed her toe on a Caesar sentence, and another has fallen hard on a Geome- try theorem. But the bruises are forgotten, and only a memory remains of a year full of new adventures, new tasks, obstacles met and overcome, and so full of work and play that there has hardly been time to think. The world is so full of a number of things, I'm sure we should all be happy as kings. And especially when one is a Sophomore!

After a while the threatening fflifiiflii mists were dispelled by the anticipation of happy experiences of four High School years before them. Many of these fond hopes came to pass-some of lighter mood,others more serious. The ever helpful dispensers of knowledge guided many in paths of glory and success. The confident, much-worshiped senior was a daily incentive to future hopes of accom- plishment. The freshmen aspired to fame as athletes and were not disappointed. One of their number took second place in the swimming contest. They had their own hockey team, and a freshman was a proud member of the second team. The volley-ball team scored second only to the senior team. The freshmen now feel themselves a necessary part of their beloved school. Through all the days they spend working and playing at Atherton they strive to follow the example of those who have gone before and to uphold their high ideals. To those who come after, the class of '33 wishes to leave a record of service and duty well done. Katherine Lee Carothers, '33 sixtyfour A I ACTIVITIES I sixty-five 1 M.

It furnishes music, jokes, sport 5225255 news, stock reports, and usually there is at least one feature to please even the most exacting. So, as the radio brings much into our life. AERIAL tries to duplicate at least some vestige of this news and entertainment in Atherton school-life. The scope of a school paper is as broad, as comprehensive, and as suited to its readers as the radio is to its audience. No other activity in school life can be so varied. On the first page one meets news, feature articles, and interviews with Atherton's most prominent students. Then on the second page come news of our alumnae, the editorials, social news, or poetry. The third page contains literary efforts ranging from short stories and poetry to feature articles on every subject under the sun. The last page is generally devoted to humor of the most varied kinds. Indeed the paper covers such a variety of subjects that it is proportionately even more useful to its audience than is the radio. Then, too, AERIAL has another advantage which should endear it still more to its readersg that is, they themselves can contribute whatever articles or writings they wish to see in print. In this way the paper becomes more of a personal affair and must be regarded as vital in school-life. AERIAL has not failed to bring honors to Atherton as well as have the various athletic organizations. Each year delegates are sent to Georgetown and rarely fail to return with- out bringing some fame. Some of the staff members have become officers of the Kentucky High School Press Association, and last year our editor-in-chief was elected president. Perhaps static is heard at times, but let us hope this will become fainter and fainter until it dies away completely, and AERIAL will truly have all the advantages and none of the disadvantages of the official speaker for Atherton.

The membership this year has been the largest in the history of the Association, and it is hoped that the following seasons will see even more girls as members of one of the most active and efficient organizations in the school. This year, as is the custom, a large, old English UA and a cup were awarded for tennis, the first sport on the fall program. Next came swimming, and the result was a tie. Therefore, an old English A and a cup were awarded to each of the girls contending. Hockey, the major sport of the school year, followed, and for the first time in several years, L. G. H. S. scored a victory over Atherton. Volley-ball, basket-ball, and baseball succeeded each other in rapid order, numerals being awarded to each member of the class teams. An old English A was given to the high point girl in track, and with this last event, the Athletic Association brought a highly successful season to a close. -Elizabeth Ellis, '30 eighty-one ,-, 135: 1 IB ATHERTON . eighty-two f F, Si I-I ERT ON X 21 3 'hmmql ghty th ALTHERTON ffmm..,,,,f BASKETBALL SUE ATHERTON, Captain NANCY SMITH DORIS NEWVMAN GARNETTE SUMMERS KATHERINE BARRICKMAN MILDRED KNOOP KATHERINE CHAPIN HELEN WOOLLEY NIARY WEAVER, Captain JEAN RUSSELL BLANCHE GIBSON JOSEPHINE LEE MARY HACKWORTH JANE NELSON MARY THUKBER VIRGINIA STOECKER JUNE PRISER LIIJA BRIGGS KATHERINE LOVEJOY GORDON BARRICRMAN, Captain ELLA RIDDLE JENNIE LEE MARIE CASTLEMAN NELL TRACY DOROTHY BIINTON MILDRED YOUNG PHYLLIS CARY MARTHA BARNES FLORENCE GODFREY BEVERLY MCDONALD, Captain ADALINE LEWMAN LILLIAN HITLIPHRIFIS FLORENCE NIORRIS HELEN HOLROYD AMELIA YOUNG PEGGY HUDDLESTON MARJORIE LEWIS MARTHA SHERKILL MARY CAREY eighty-four 8 ATHERTON VIRGINIA DIECKS, Captain MARX' E.
