SENIORS THE CHRONICLE OF THE TRIBE OF 1937 Behold and give heed, all ye who would seek to know of the achievements and glories of the mighty Tribe of l937. Wandering over uncharted territory, strug- gling to make their imprint on the sands of time, the class changed, increased and oftimes diminished. Ceaseless effort brought them ever higher aiming at a goal which seemed vague and distant in the mists of time. So they came on and ever onward. ln the Year of Our Lord, Nineteen Hundred and Thirty-four, they entered the portals of our building for the first time. Strange to them were the crudities of our time worn dwelling, after three luxurious years in Iunior High. lllnd it came to pass, after a year of making a place for themselves among the Tribes of Senior High, that they assembled themselves within the walls once again. ln contemplative mood, they did appoint unto the office of Chieftains four of their num- ber, Robert Lee Wilson, Iohn I-losier, Virginia Wood, and Glenn McCue. Rnd so at the end of their second year, a great feast was held to which they invited their elders, the Seniors. Rnd thus after the banquet, the Iunior-Senior Prom was held. Sought after since the dawn of time, it was successfully brought to realization by the struggles of the Tribes of Thirty-six and Thirty-seven. Rnd lol another summer passed and the Tribe of Thirty-seven returned once more to the realm of Senior High for the last year of their sojourn. Hgain they cast about for lead- ers and once more unto Robert Lee Wilson was given the post of chief. His chosen assist- ants were revealed as Margaret McCoWn, Dorothy Kirtley, and Roberta Walter. The year rolled 'round and this time the feast was prepared by the Tribe of Thirty- eight. Came the selected night and men and maidens reveled amidst settings in the manner of the Coronation. Then the members of the clan presented a play, The Passing of the Third Floor Back. Loudly resounded the hall with cheers as the success of the play was acclaimed. The Tribes did struggle manfully and each won many honors for itself on the Olympic field where tribe supremacy was decided. Yet again social activities did swell the annals of the school as the Senior Picnic was held in an air of jollity and revelry. Hlbeit less formal than certain other occasions, neverthe- less the picnic was an affair of renown and added a grain of levity to the many serious affairs of the year. By way of girding themselves for the future all of the Tribe did present themselves at Baccalaureate to listen to the wisdom of the ages expounded by Rev. R. B. Fouts. Hgain, the Tribe did gather itself together for Class Night while members of the Tribe did carry out the duties necessary for the passing on the Tribe tradition. Thus in due course of events came at last the great climax of these years of sojourn within the walls of Senior High-Commence ment. Dr. Bryan Seward Stoffel, chief of all the tribes of Doane, imparted words of wis- dom to the departing. Diplomas, symbols of the glories, trials, tribulations, and achievements of the final four years, became a precious possession as the members of the Tribe of Thirty-seven set forth upon a greater Trail with new visions, higher aspirations, and a determination to travel the path to the utmost of their ability.
