SENIOR filled up. We paid plenty for the meal. September 1, 1937. We entered as dignified seniors, not so many this time, only twenty-three. Again we are under the watchful eye of Mr. Price with a slight change in officers. President, Ralph Paul n; vice-president, George Quisenberry; secretary-treasurer, Donnabelle Pech. This year we furnished four members for the baseball team and six men for the basket ball squad. V e were also well represented in band, glee clubs, and commercial groups. And now, dear friends, our history of the past four years is completed. As to our future, who can say? But just watch us. V e are now clothed with a knowledge far superior to any of our lower classmates. There may be a President or a Senator of the United States among us, who knows? Only time with all its joy and sorrow can bring these hidden possibilities to light. B. C. ' 38 ”23 rd Psalm” Miss Blum is my English teacher, I shall not pass She maketh me to write my English And exposeth my ignorance before the whole class; She reneweth my sixties. And maketh me take tests for my grade's sake; Yea, though I study till doom's day I earn no exemptions, for my English is above me. She calleth on me when I am talking; She urgeth me to throw away my gum; Surely, book reports shall haunt me each night; And I shall v ork on my notebook forever. G. Q. '38

It was on September 3, 1934, that forty merry pupils were found scattered'far and wide in the assembly. As this was our first appearance on the scene, we were considered 'green bv the upper classmen at that time. After a few days had elapsed, wc held a class meeting and after much debating, selected the following class officers: president, Robert Crihfield; vice-president, Doris Leach; secretary-treasurer, Mary Ellen Fulk; advisor, Mr. Price. In athletics our class was always well represented. We had one star player on the basketball team and others on the baseball team. Four members were In band. September 2, the following year found us again in these same dear old halls. Low we numbered thirty-four. This year wc were under the guidance of Mr. Rush with the following class officers: president, Dor s Leach; ce-presi- dent, Ruth McClure; 3oCrotary-treasurer, Doris Ludlam.
