It seems as if it were only yesterday when the title of “Seniors” was bestowed upon our heads and we elected our honorable officers. But now it is finished, our work is done and we must move on, to conquer in greater fields. In this, our last chronicle, we wish to express our appreciation to our class officers who have excelled so finely in their duties. jOHN B.

The four years of High School loomed endless before us with graduation appearing as a vague possibility at their termination During that Spring, the auditorium, in which we had the honor of being the first junior High School graduates, was completed Hyatt Mossburg was our president during the Freshman year and was re-elected in the Soph- omore year As class advisor, Mrs. Sullivan successfully launched us on our career As Senior High School students, and the second year of the four long years was begun This year was a busy one as it was the first in which we were permitted social activities. One of these was a dance given by the Glee Club The organization of the Footlight Club, many of whose members were from our class, was of primary interest to the whole school. We were also proud to be members of a High School that was rapidly coming into prominence on the athletic field Although the boys were not fortunate enough to win the Soccer championship they were proud to be runners-up Our Junior year was our first year of prominence and. important activity, as we were thrown into contact with the Senior Class of that year. The first social event of the year was the dance given by the Seniors to the Juniors at Thanks- giving We elected Anna Moore Converse president to lead us along the path chartered by Mrs MacLea. The fourteenth of February was our big night as that was the date of our return dance to the Seniors. Our athletic name continued to brighten when the County Basketball Championship was won by our boys. In honor of the champions, the Booster Club gave a dance, at which it presented the team with a silver loving cup This dance was one of the most outstanding social events of the sea- son The year came to a flourishing close with the Senior Farewell Prom At last we have reached the final stage of our High School career With the year came a big responsibility as we were impressed with the necessity of setting a good example for the rest of the school How well we carried out these good intentions had better be left unsaid It seemed fitting that the adviser who guided us through our first uncertain year of High School should be the director of our final year John Armentrout was our president, and Hyatt Mossburg was vice president The hard work of the class was shouldered by Harriet Reid, who kept the ac- count of class meetings and activities, and by Betty Jackson, whose responsibility it was to collect money and keep the debit and credit balanced. According to the tradition established by the two previous classes, we entertained the Juniors at a Thanksgiving dance After much careful preparation and hard work we were ready to present our class program to the assembled school on December the seventeenth This assembly was of a special significance to us because we at last received the privileges for which we had waited three long years. In February we were entertained by the Juniors at their return dance A most hilarious and successful party was given the Seniors by the Senior Faculty on March 31st. at the Bethesda Woman’s Club At this time we began to plan for our commencement and among the plans were those of a year book Our Senior class was the first to materialize this dream of a year book, in which other classes iad failed Plans for class night and commencement went rapidly forward until at last we have reached the night when we can look back over the four years of mingled work and pleasure, with a bewildered wonderment at the years which once stretched ahead of us so endless, seem so short as we see them behind us. All that remains is to say good-bye to our friends and teachers and the school which was the scene of many hours of hard work and pleasure. FINIS Page 17 THE CLASS SONG By A M CONVERSE Tho' years roll by us. and classmates are parted. Tho' our friendships and memories fade. There are ties that will bind us. Wherever you find us. The ties that Bethesda has made! Tho' our ships go north and our ships go south. One wind guides them all thru the gale. Some may find land and others gold. We know no ship will fail. or the set of the sail and not the gale. Determines our courses in life. Bethesda has set our sails full mast. We are ready, come peace or strife' Page 18 -E — THE CLASS POEM By CYNTHIA SIBYLLE HATHAWAY Four Years— Today we stand beside the gate, The silver door of Time, and Life, and Fate. And see Four Years of Shining purpose done. And know Four Years of Strength and wisdom won. Four Years— They have been good for us, and wise, And they have opened up our minds and eyes. They taught us that the world is ours to ga n, Cost what it may of steady work or pain Today we stand and see the open door. What will life give us? Will it have us poor As we leave everything that we have known. To find new fields where wisdom may be sown Of heart? Or will it make us wise and strong, And full of courage? Will it bring a song, To light our souls and speed us on our way? This is the question that we ask today— Page 19 Page 20 THE CLASS OF 1932 VICE-PRESIDENT Lamar Joe Brown Amiss. Helen Bestor.

The Student Guide System and morning assemblies have been under the direction of this organization Through the efforts of the Council, over one hundred dollars and approximately an equal amount in food and clothing has been contributed to the Social Service by the school. Altogeher, this has been one of the most successful years in its history. Page 32 THE JUNIOR STUDENT COUNCIL PRESIDENT Mitchell Erickson VICE-PRESIDENT SECRETARY TREASURER Reginald Looker Evans Buchanan Temple Curry FACULTY ADVISOR Dorothy 0 Young The Junior Student Council is composed of one representative and one alternate from each home room The Council co-operates with school projec's and the faculty, in such matters as Social Service drives, care and improvement of school building and grounds, etc A Hallowe'en masquerade, a dance and a picnic comprised the social activities of this organization.

For the opening program a speaker from the Bicentennial Commission was obtained A George Washington Memorial tree was also p'anted, with approppriate ceremonies, on Arbor Day The last activity of the year was the arrangement of Hobby Day displays ;n the Junior High. Page 33 THE FOOTLIGHT CLUB PRESIDENT Anna Moore Converse VICE PRESIDENT SECRETARY Randolph Pugh Betty Jackson FACULTY ADVISOR Evalene Babcock Beebe The production of Kenyon Nicho'son's comedy, Honor Bright,” marked 1932 as an entirely suc- cessful year of work Honor Bright proved to be one of the best comedy dramas ever staged since the club's organization in 1928 The cast included Anna Moore Converse. Randolph Pugh, B Bishop. Mildred Chapin, j Armentrout. Harriet Hartnett, R Gingell. R Mitchell, Jane Cox, Beverly Gaylor, V. Elmore, T Dowell. Mrs Beebe has been the guiding star of this organization during its four years of existence and is largely responsible for the play's great success It has been the major aim of the Footlight C'ub to present each year at least one full length play and to further the appreciation and knowledge of dramatic art by means of study and presenta- tion. Aside from this year’s major effort. Honor Bright. three one act playlets were given at an assembly program Page 34 n i n THE STUDENT BAND DIRECTOR Ray Hart DRUM MAJORS FACULTY ADVISOR Sumpter Embry and Bob Mitchell Kenneth Petrie The Bethesda-Chevy Chase High Student Band was organized in February of 1931, under the capable guidance of Mr Ray Hart. After many hours of patient practice and study, the band be- came a permanent reality The progress of the g-oup has been rapid as already after only one year’s work they have many concerts and appearances to their credit The Band played at several games this year, the effect of the music raised the spirit of the teams and inspired students in their cheering. Under the advisorship of Mr Petrie, the Band obtained uniforms and began military march- ing and formations It is safe to say that at the end of another year Bethesda-Chevy Chase will be able to boast of the best high school band in the county Page 35 THE PINE TREE BUSINESS MANAGER Neal Potter, ’33 STAFF ARTIST Lucille Canney STAFF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Ray Gingell, ’32 SENIOR CLASS EDITOR Anna Moore Converse.

FACULTY ADVISOR Clara Parker Sullivan The year bock of Bethesda-Chevy Chase, which had its beginning this year, is published by the Senior Student Council. This publication is supported entirely by subscription, assessment and adver- tisements It is the aim of the staff to present a truthful record of life and happenings in the school during the past year Page 36 Uhr aattlrr HOLD ELECTIONS THE TATTLER JUNIOR EDITOR Alva Sibley Helen F Neely EDITOR-IN-CHIEF Haylett B Shaw FACULTY ADVISORS Virginia Mullinix BUSINESS MANAGER Anthony Haynes Catherine N. Dawson Bethesda-Chevy Chase’s student newspaper, The Tattler. is published in the interests of the students, faculty and alumni of the high school The progress of this paper has been very steady since its first issue way back in 1926 The greatest growth and improvement, however, seems to have been made this year. Among the improvements the most outstanding is the fact that The Tattler is published twice per month instead of monthly, as in previous years, and its publication is the combined efforts of a Senior and Junior staff.
