SENIOR CLASS HISTORY ln September, 1921, the Senior class of 1925 entered High School as Fresh- men. There were thirty of us. During that year we lost four members: Casper Sears, Lucinda Fischer, Harold Sherman and Lee Mattice. When we came together again in 1922, there were only seventeen of our former members. Vivian Harris left School, Agnes Riggs moved to Wayne, Mamie Dupsloff, Paul Artley, Oakley Van Schoick and Lyle Schweizer left school, Robert Clayton was ill for some time, Albert lves stayed with the Freshmen. During the year, Frances Savage moved to Detroit and Marion Greedus and Bemard Graff joined us. When school started again, we missed Viola Day, who left to attend Cleary College and Harry Randall, who spent the year in Colorado for his health. Before the year was over, we lost Alice Rowell, who moved to Romulus, Donald Robson left school to work and Bernard Graff entered business in Detroit. Edward Garlick and Wellington Coykendall were additions to our class this year. This year was very successful. Our class was well represented in the Athletic Association. We encouraged season ticket campaigns and always boosted B. H. S. at games. On the girls basketball team, our class was represented by Leah Dunham, Beatrice Coleman, Maud Simpson and Nadine Wood. On the boys basketball team there were three of our boys-Elmer Simmons, Edward Barlick and Harley Helzerman. Our social affairs were also a success. We had many all High School parties and junior and Senior parties. Our J Hop was well attended and our banquet to the Seniors was enjoyed very much. ln September, 1924, we began our Senior work together. There were only fourteen members, for Linnie Hedding left to attend High School at Ypsilanti. At the beginning of the second semester, Charles Arnold joined us, making fifteen members. This year, too, has been successful. The High School as a whole has attained a marked success in Athletics as well as in other lines. We are glad that we have been able to engage in the contests for Belleville High. We are represented in basketball by four girls and three boys. In football and baseball, Wellington, Edward, Elmer, Harley and Stewart are our representatives. We have encouraged the Athletic Association, two of our members being officers of the organization. Our Lyceum Course was a success. Our motto is Deeds, not dreams, and we hope to live up to this in future life. A N. Wood, '25. 14
