-------0-THE BEAVER-1932---0--.-.-.:. History of Class of '32 Early in the fall of 1928 our jade green and white ship was launched on her four-year journey. Our skipper was Albert Johnson, and he has kept his position through all of the voyage excepting the third year. In the first year the going was rough and unsteady, the weather fre- quented by many storms. But as our vessel approached th-e harbor of Com- mencement, the seas have become calm and the sailing easier. During our second y-ear of voyaging we got our sea legs and firmly established ourselves in the habits of sieafaring. Several of the boys won letters in football, basketball and track, and we captured honors in all divi- sions of the forensic cont-est. The athletic play in the fall was well patron- ized and started our stars on their dramatic career. In the spring we were honored by having the prom queen chosen from our class. Each year as we drew nearer our harbor, we met with newer and more exciting adventures. Undoubtedly our Junior Promenade was the outstand- ing event of our third year out. With Allen Randall's able management, the promenade was undoubtedly the loveliest social event ever given in the vessel Augusta High. Besides this, we were well represented in athletics -Albert Johnson being elected of Juniors. All four first honors in the for- ensic contest were earned by Junior students, and two of our classmates went to the district contest in Eau Claire. During this last year we have been so busy striving for our goal that our interest in other activities has been dulled somewhat. However, the football team, basketball team, track team an'd forensic contest would have suffered most hardily if it hadn't been for the Senior representatives. The outstanding events for this year were: the class play in April, the Junior- Senior party in November, the Junior Promenade in May, the Baccalaur- eate, Class Night and Commencement in the latter part of May and June. As we finally reach our goal, instead of resting, we strive to look to the future and to make it as successful and happy' as our high school voyage has been. PAGE THIIKTEICN
