Page18 The Mirror SENIOR CLASS HlST0RY,:C0ntinuedl R920 This year the Rotary Club and the Senior Class exchanged members, that is, Rotarians spoke in chapel every other week, and in return, members of the Senior Class spoke to the Rotarians at some of their weekly meetings. This plan worked out very favor' ably and will probably be continued next year. We are very proud of our Senior Orchestra, who plays for most of our high school dances. Due to its ability it was also inf vited to play at several other functions, and it has made a hit every time. Three of our talkative Seniors proved their ability for dis' coursing to Miss Porteus and Mr. Myers and made the Debating Team, and how they can argue. They sent Danville home def feated and almost won from Sunbury. This year in order to get every Senior working toward our Washington trip, we planned a system of committees. The class was divided into eight committees, ten on a committee and each group was designated to earn one hundred dollars. Every group has cooperated and will have its given sum in the treasury on June 24. Plans are being made for our trip to the National Capitol, and every Senior is looking forward to our happy days together there before separation. We wish to thank the under classmen for all they have done for us in making our trip possible, and we sincerely hope you will all get there in your Senior year. Commencement is drawing year and with it the JuniorfSenior Banquet, MovingfUp Day, Baccalaureate Sermon, Alumni Banquet, Senior Drama and Class Night. And thus we the Class of 29 have finished our High School course, and sincerely hope that classes to come may have as many happy times as we have had in the dearest of Alma Maters, Berf wick High School. We wish future Seniors much success and happiness. Classes may come Classes may go But the class of 'L29 goes on forever

The Mirror Page17 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY--Continued Y-NIH Our third year opened upon one hundred four jolly juniors During the very first week of school we staged a party for the Freshmen which proved highly successful. Two weeks later we elected officers for our Junior year. Hallowe'en came, as it always does, and the Juniors held a wellfplanned and wellfattended party at West Side Park. Striking Black and Gold pennants were chosen a few weeks later. Then came the storm . Mid Years!! The tempest was terrifying but we survived, and with the calm came relief. In our junior Year, one of our most important events, that of choosing our class rings, took place. Our rings were chosen with little opposition, and we were delighted with the selection. Our junior Girls' Interfclass Basketball team won the much desired championship. We are also represented on the boys' and girls' varsity basketball teams, the football squad, cheering squad and track. The class of 29 have a few allfaround athletes and we are proud of them. We took over the publication of the Blue and White and handled it with much success. The climax of our Junior year was the banquet for the Seniors at West Side Park. We had planned and looked forward to this affair, since our Freshman year, and as far as we are concerned our plans for a successful banquet were more than realized, and we hope the Seniors of ZS thought so, too. Thus Father Time has traveled along the highway of life for three years and we are now Seniors. In the fall of 1928, ninety-seven very dignified f??j Seniors started on the home stretch. This, our final year, was to be marked by many events. Early in the fall we elected class officers to guide us through the most important year of our school life. Again we made up a part of the athletics of our Alma Mater, in football, boys' and girls' basketball, track and cheerfleading. Our social activities were many this year, among them, the annual Hallowe'en Party, a Christmas Dance, a Valentine's Party, an Easter Party, a Hick Party and many others. We sponsored a benefit picture Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come, the Glee Club production, Bits O' Blarney and the French Marionettes. Every event we have undertaken so far this year has proved sucf cessful socially and financially.
