 ATALANTA 1933 Senior (Class IHistnnj Dear Friends: 11 you will give me your kind attention for a few minutes, I will relate to you the history of a marvelous class—the most wonderful class that has ever graduated from old A. C. H. S.. namely the Class of 1933. It was in September, 1929, that about thirty-five merry pupils were found on the south side of the assembly room. As this was quite different from the grades, we were considered as “green” by the upper classmen at that time. After awhile we held a class meeting and finally agreed upon the following officers: Joseph Mountjoy, president; Madelyn Curtis, Vice-president, and Earl Hayter, secretary-treasurer. As Freshmen we did our share along musical, athletic and other lines. In our Sophomore year we had about the same number of members enrolled but we lost several before the end of the year. Another class meeting was called for the purpose of nominating class officers. There were many nominations, but in the end Merlin Warrick was chosen president; Madelyn Curtis, vice-president, and Merlin Adams, secretary-treasurer. This year seemed to hold some real enemies for us. Two of the worst were Mr. Latin and Mr. Geometry. Many times it seemed as though our efforts were useless, but we finally came through safely, with a feeling of relief. In September. 1931. we took our places in the assembly and enrolled as Juniors. We decided at the beginning of the year we had a great task ahead of us, that of financing the Junior-Senior Banquet. This time Madelyn Curtis was selected as president. Marjorie Carlock as vice-president, and Merlin Adams, secretary-treasurer. Most of our spare time was spent in earning money to finance the banquet. We arc proud of the fact that we entertained the Seniors and Faculty so well at the banquet on April 20. It was directed by Miss Sutherland and was served by our mothers. At last came the Senior year with all its dignity and importance. A class meeting was held early in the fall and Earl Hayter was elected president; Omar Blankenship, vice-president, and Edna Mae Brandt, secretary-treasurer. We, the class of 33, then decided to publish an “Atalanta”. The staff and annual advisers were chosen. In order to finance the affair, many methods for raising funds were put into use. After much consideration, the play The Girl in the Fur Coat”, was chosen as the play to be given by our class. This proved to be a huge success. The Junior-Senior Banquet was a complete success this year and was thoroughly enjoyed by the Seniors. The Juniors were exceptionally good hosts and entertainers, and we appreciated this very much. And now, dear friends, I have completed our exciting history of the past four years. As for our future I cannot say. but watch us. There may be a President or a Senator of U. S. among us. who knows? Only time with all its joys and sorrows can bring these hidden possibilities to light. —Mauki.yn Ci ktis.
