The Spectator 1927 event was the Junior-Senior Banquet, and, 1 dare say, our efforts were successful. We made ourselves known to the public, by our class play, “The Hoodoo,” which was pronounced a huge success by every one. In athletics we were first in the interclass tourney, and with the Sophomores conquered in baseball and track. After working hard all summer we came back as solemn and dignified Seniors, the pride (but not the pets) of the teachers. At our class meeting, which resembled a session of Congress, Charles German was elected President, the other officers remaining the same as the preceding year. At this meeting, we decided to publish an Annual. We found that the rest of the school were willing to help us, so we left what we hope is a monument to our work. We leave our Alma Mater, an older and a wiser class than when we entered. C. H. G„ ’27.
