TROJAN m t lie the hill Then UST fifty years ago Beloit High School had its first graduating exercises. This was in 1883 and in 1033 we celebrate the golden anniversary of the first graduating class. There were only two girls in this class, Emma Long and Mabel Barnes. This year there are sixty-three students graduating class. Picture a little red school house up on whose two stern teachers rule the pupils, on the long awaited day these two modest maidens of '83 eagerly sweep across the platform in their long and lacy dresses to receive their diplomas. Then picture a red brick schoolhouse on a hill with a beautiful green lawn. Inside you see a great many teachers. They aren't stern any longer, they are friendly and congenial with the students. Then the same as before the long awaited day comes and sixtv-three dignified seniors walk across the platform to receive their diplomas just as eagerly. But BELOIT HIGH SCHOOL.

There is a contrast. They both have the same vision, to leave school, and to meet people, gain friends in the outside world, and make the best of their education. Although the teachers have been changed a great many times, tlie same spirit and desire to work for the school has remained. This undying spirit which can be found in each student is the reason Beloit High School has progressed. The graduation program of 1883 was interesting with its recitations, debates, and the Valdietorian, Mabel Barnes, who gave a long oration on “Women in War. Such orations have been, discarded long ago. That program must have lasted nearly two hours, while the program today is just as impressive but it is shorter. Here you can compare the program of 1883 with that of 1933, just fifty years later. (Hiunmrurrnirnt program FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY MAY 22. 1933 HIGH SCHOOL A EDITOR!
