A——I i -- SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The tide came in only too soon for some of us v ho were still ENJOYING OURSELVES UPON THE BEACH OF VACATION, AS THAT FIRST EARLY TIDE CAME IN AND WENT OUT IN SEPTEMBER OF 1933, IT CARRIED WITH IT A CREW OF EIGHTEEN SHY SAILORS UPON THE SHIP, FRESHMAN, The waves were rough, and as our ship was frail, we saw need of APPOINTING SOMEONE TO STEER US UPON THE RIGHT COURSE, WE CHOSE Donald Sollenberger, as captain of the ship and Donald Burgess and Willard Klussman, as mates. We had not gone far upon our tiny FRIGIT WHEN WE RAN ADRIFT UPON THE SANDBAR OF INITIATION PARTY, The EXCITEMENT OF RUNNING UPON THAT FIRST SANDBAR WAS TOO much for Raymond Mckinney and he dropped out leaving a crew of sev-j enteen. After sailing calmly about until the latter part OF October, we gave a weiner roast upon the shores of Clark’s Woods, here the Sophomores, the faculty, and our small crew had an en- JOYAOLE TIME, IN DeOEMDER, WE ANCHORED IN CHRISTMAS BAY, HERE WE CELEBRATED OUR SURVIVAL OF THOSE TERRORS, THAT WE ENCOUNTERED UPON THE SANDBAR OF INITIATION, BY GIVING AN ALL SCHOOL PARTY, This was our first party and was a success under the guide of our a compass. Miss Cora, Our party was not such an enjoyable and complete ONE BECAUSE JUST A SHORT TIME BEFORE WE HAD SEEN JIMMY Harding go sailing off upon a calmer sea and to a happy and brighter LAND, The SEA BECAME TOO ROUGH FOR OUR SECOND MATE, WILLARD Klussman, and he resigned from the ship’s duties. Again in September, we embarked in our new ship, the Sophomore, waunita Tucker had taken her name from the list of sailors and Paul Mulvaney had added his. This year, we chose our new sailor, Paul Mulvaney, as Captain, Donald Sollenberger and Keith Savage were to lend a helping hand to our captain. There was not VERY MUCH EXCITEMENT IN OUR SAILING CAREER THIS YEAR, WE WERE PIRATES FOR A SHORT TIME AND CAPTURED THE FRESHMAN SHIP, WE HELD THIS SHIP ONLY LONG ENOUGH TO ACQUAINT ITS CREW WITH THE SEAS OF Bp IMF I eld High school, we would no doubt have kept it under our BIDDING LONGER, BUT OUR ADVISOR, MR, NICHOLS, ORDERED US TO RELEASE the ship. Freshman, so that it could start sailing upon its WAY, Before setting sail upon our third voyace, we all made our way TO THE SHIP YARD, HERE WE SELECTED A SHIP WHICH WE NAMED, THE JUNIOR. Richard Pacey did not come aboard with us; and soon after SETTING SAIL, 0ONALD SOLLENBERGER USED ONE OF THE LIFE BOATS FOR DRIFTING AWAY. HARRY SCHWENK CAME TO TAKE THE PLACE OF SAILOR pacey. Miss Tracy was the new teacher to show us just where to SAIL WHILE UPON THE COMMERCIAL SEA, WE ELECTED ROOERTA BOWMAN as Captain. Harry Schwenk, Maxine McCartney, and Paul Mulvaney WERE THE MATES. THE CREW OF THE SENIOR SHIP ASKED US TO SAIL WITH them to French Grove to a much enjoyed weiner roast. This year B p T WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW JUST WHAT WE COULD DO UPON THE DECK stage. We presented the play, wThe Unexpected Guest, On the 13th of May we sailed up the Illinois River and anchored at Peoria for A FEW HOURS, We ENTERTAINED THE SENIORS AND THE FACULTY AT THE ANNUAL RECEPTION HELD IN THE GREEN ROOM OF THE Y, W, C. A. AFTER THE DINNER WE SAW THE PICTURE, THE EX-MRS. BRADFORD, WE LIKED TO SAIL UPON THE ILLINOIS RIVER AND DID SO AT THE END OF THE YEAR, The entire school sailed to Detweiller Park to make the farewell, FOR THE TEACHERS WHO WERE LEAVING, A PLEASANT ONE. NOW WE ARE ABOARD THE NEW SHIP, SENIOR. WHEN THE NAMES OF THE SAILORS WERE CALLED, JAMES MURPHY WAS NOT PRESENT. HAROLD Montgomery asked for recognition upon the ship and reccived it. Hubert Davis started out with the crew but failed to be able to RIDE SMOOTHLY UPON THE ROUGH WAVES OF BRIMF I ELD HIGH SCHOOL. ThIS YEAR, WE ADDED TO OUR EDUCATIONAL STAFF FOUR NEW INSTRUCTORS:— Miss Rachel Lohman, miss Velma Allen, Mr, Ralph Brasmer, and Mr. John Carr, Our captain of the Junior ship, Roberta Bowman, was SO EFFICIENT THAT WE CHOSE HER TO KEEP OUR HEADS ABOVE WATER DURING OUR LAST VOYAGE UPON THE SEA. RUTH TUCKER, ARLENE PLACK, AND Paul Mulvaney were to assist the captain. We sailed into the CURRENT OF PLAYS AND PRESENTED THE MOONSTONE. THIS PLAY WAS ENJOYED BY MANY. WHEN WE SAILED HOME FOR CHRISTMAS VACATION, WE ALL BADE FAREWELL TO BERNICE KlNGDON WHO WAS TO STEER HER SHIP TO the West Coast. In January, harry Schv enk left us, having finished HIS SCHOOLING BEFORE THE REST OF US. NOW WE ARE SAILING DOWN THE CHANNEL OF THE TASK OF PUBLISHING THE SPECTATOR. Mr. NICHOLS IS OUR ADVISOR AGAIN, THIS BE INQ HIS THIRD YEAR TO HOLD THIS OFFICE, WE HAVE ALL APPRECIATED HIS ASSISTANCE AND THE INTEREST HE HAS TAKEN IN THE SENIOR CREW. WE ARE NOW SAILING SWIFTLY ON. OUR BACCALAUREATE SERVICES WILL BE HELD ON THE THIRTIETH OF MAY IN THE UNION CHURCH WITH Reverend Traub in charge. Graduation exercises will de held on the third of June in THE AUDITORIUM OF OUR NEW HIGH SCHOOL BUILDING. Now our ship is ready to anchor. We feel that during our YEARS OF SAILING UPON THE SEA OF BRIMFI ELD HIGH SCHOOL, WE HAVE ACCOMPLISHED WHAT ALL HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH.

In testimony thereof, we hereunto set the seal of the Class OF 1937, THIS _____ DAY OF______1937, A.D. Secretary President SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY On a warm sunny day in July, I sailed prom New York Harbor, THE START or A WORLD CRUISE. THE NORMA LEE IS A LUXURIOUS LINER THAT MAKES THE OLD QUEEN MARY SEEM A WASHTUB IN COMPARISON. Seated comfortably in a deck chair, beneath the shade of an AWNING, MY MIND WNADERED BACK THROUGH THE EIGHT LONG YEARS THAT HAD ELAPSED SINCE MY HIGH SCHOOL DAYS. HOW I WOULD LIKE TO SEE ALL MY OLD CLASSMATES, I THOUGHT. Well, why not? Here was I, the chief executive of and owning A CONTROLLING INTEREST IN MONTGOMERY MOTORS, INCORPORATED. I HAD NO FAMILY TIES AND MONEY MEANT NOTHING TO ME. WHY NOT SPEND MY SUMMER VACATION TO LOCATE AS MANY OF MY OLD CLASSMATES AS POSSIBLE. It looked like a tig job but i made up my mind to tackle it. I CAME BACK FROM MY REVERIE WITH A START TO SNAP MY FINGERS AT THE NEARBY STEWARD WHO WAS POLISHING THE BRASSWORKS. YES, SIR, HE RESPONDED QUICKLY. BRING ME A COOL GLASS OF LEMONADE, I ORDERED. I PEELED OFF A FIVE-DOLLAR BILL, AND AS I LOOKED UP TO HAND IT TO HIM, MY ARM STOPPED IN MlD-AlR FOR THE STEWARD WAS MY OLD FRIEND, WILFRED FOSTER. HE RECOGNIZEO ME AT THE SAME INSTANT AND GRASPED MY OUTSTRETCHED HAND BUT WITHDREW HIS HAND QUICKLY, EXPLAINING THAT HIS ORDERS FORBADE HIM TO BECOME FAMILIAR WITH PASSENGERS. SO I ARRANGED FOR A LONG TALK IN MY STATE-ROOM AS SOON AS HE Y AS OFF DUTY. THERE HE TOLD ME OF THE WHEREABOUTS OF MANY OF MY OLD CLASSMATES FOR HE HAD BEEN CORRESPONDING REGULARLY WITH THEM. I TOLD HIM OF MY PLAN WHERE UPON HE BECAME VERY ENTHUSIASTIC AND BEGGED ME TO SEND HIS REGARDS TO ALL. The next morning I awoke, with the sun streaming through the PORTHOLE, TO BE INFORMED BY Y ILFRED THAT WE WERE ALREADY FOUR-HUNDRED MILES AT SEA AND THE FIRST PORT WAS TO BE BREST, FRANCE. Four days after leaving New York we sayi lights ahead for it WAS TWILIGHT. 17E HEARD THE SOUND OF NUMEROUS SMALL TUGS COMING TO ASSIST US IN DOCKING. The annoyance of health officers and customs inspectors was SOON OVER AND I HASTENED IN A CAB TO THE NEAREST RAILWAY STATION, Here l bought a ticket for Paris. The train, the latest in streamlining, CAME TO A NOISELESS HALT AND I CLIMBED ABOARD. I DROPPED INTO A SEAT AND GAZED ABOUT ME. Something about the lady in front of me arrested my attention. She was a very distinguished looking lady with a wealth of golden hair surmounted by the latest Paris creation in chapeaus. She seemed somehow familiar and upon the pretense of buying A NEWSPAPER OR MAGAZINE, I WALKED UP THE AISLE AND UPON RETURNING TO MY SEAT, I RECOGNIZED HER AS RUTH TUCKER. THE RECOGNITION B v T WAS SIMULTANEOUS AND AFTER A WARM GREETING WE ENTERED INTO A LONG CONVERSATION. SHE TOLD ME THAT SHE HAD HAPPILY WED THE MAN OF HER DREAMS. She had, however, retaineo her maiden name, though it was SOMEWHAT ALTERED. SHE HAD ENGAGED IN DESIGNING IN PARIS AND HAD BECOME FAMOUS FOR HER OUTLANDISH CREATIONS. SHE HAD CHANGED HER NAME TO MLLE. RUHTHE TOCKERE AND SPOKE ENGLISH WITH A DECIDED French accent, we parted in Paris and after surveying the beautiful BUILDINGS, I WENT TO THE HOTEL TO SLEEP. The next morning I hurried by train back to Brest where I AGAIN BOARDED THE SHIP. WILFRED VERY FORMALLY ANNOUNCED SOME FINE ENTERTAINMENT IN THE AUDITORIUM AND THERE I WENT. AS THE CURTAIN CAME UP ON THE PLAY, IT REVEALED A MAN AND WOMAN OF VERY HANDSOME APPEARANCE. THEY WERE PAUL MULVANEY AND ROBERTA BOWMAN PLAYING OPPOSITE IN THE LEADING ROLES. The curtain came down on the last act to a thunderous applause. 1 WAS WAITING AND MET THEM AS THEY CAME OUT OF THEIR DRESSING ROOMS. THEY WERE MUCH SURPRISED BUT VERY GLAD TO SEE ME. They explained that having failed to reach success on major Bowes hour, they had turned to acting and had been very successful. They were engaged by the steamer line to perform at intervals during the entire cruise. They excused themselves saying THAT THEY WERE REHEARSING FOR A NEW PLAY AND I RETURNED TO MY DECK CHAIR, For THE FOLLOWING TWO DAYS AND NIGHTS, V E CRUISED THROUGH THE STRAITS OF GlLBRALTAR, THE MED ITERANEAN, AND LASTLY I LEFT the ship at Port Said, as it would take a considerable length of TIME FOR THE SHIP TO MAKE THE SUEZ TRANSIT. AT LAST THE SHIP CLEARED THE CANAL AND WE CONTINUED OUR JOURNEY, DOCKING THE FOLLOWING DAY AT CALCUTTA, INDIA. WITH ROBERTA AND PAUL, I MADE A TOUR OF THE CITY, WE KNEW THE LOCALITY WHERE LUCILLE MCOONOUGH LIVED, BUT NOT THE EXACT ADDRESS. UPON NEARING A SMALL WHITE BUILDING, WE HEARD VOICES THROUGH THE OPEN DOOR INTERSPERSED WITH a sharp American voice that seemed very familiar, we entered WHAT LATER PROVED TO BE A SCHOOLROOM AND WERE CORDIALLY RECEIVED by Lucille McDonough in person. She explained that she had taken up MISSIONARY WORK AND HAD LANDED IN THIS LONELY SPOT. AFTER chatting a long time we left her to her duties and returned to THE SHIP WHICH WAS PREPARING TO LEAVE THE HARBOR. THt NEXT EVENING WE DOCKED AT HONGKONG, CHINA AND WENT ASHORE FOR EXERCISE. STEPP ING GINGERLY AMONG THE COBBLESTONES, ROBERTA SEVERELY WRENCHED HER ANKLE. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS A DOCTOR'S OFFICE IN THE NEXT BUlLOlNG. WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF PAUL AND ME, SHE MANAGED TO ENTER. The DOCTOR GREETEO US WARMLY AND IMAGINE OUR SURPRISE UPON RECOGNIZING HIM AS LEPOY KELLSTADT. He PLIED US WITH A THOUSAND QUESTIONS AND THEN HURRIED TO BIND ROBERTA'S ANKLE SO THAT SHE WALKED WITH ONLY A SLIGHT LIMP. He SUGGESTED THAT WE ACCOMPANY him to the Olympic stadium, to view the Olympic games which were -'-d tNl t© BE ING HELD IN HONKONG FOR THE FIRST TIME. WE GLADLY ACCEPTED HIS OFFER AND HURRIED THERE AT ONCE WE WATCHED THE VARIOUS EVENTS WITH GREAT INTEREST. TOWARD THE END OF THE MEET, THIS BEING THE LAST DAY, JAPAN AND THE UNITED STATES WERE TIED FOR POINTS FOR THE INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIC CHAMP IONSHIP. The COMING EVENT, THE HUNDRED—METER DASH WOULD DECIDE, THE RUNNERS WERE AT THEIR MARKS AND I LEVELED MY FIELD GLASSES AT THE RUNNER WHO WORE THE RED, WHITE, AND DLUE OF THE UNITED STATES. I COULD NOT SUPPRESS A CRY OF ASTONISHMENT AND QUICKLY MADE KNOWN MY DISCOVERY TO MY COMRADES. WE ALL AGREED THAT IT COULD BE NONE OTHER THAN K£ITH SAVAGE, OUR B. H. S. STAR ATHLETE. The race started and as we breathlessly watched Keith take THE LEAD BY TWO YARDS, MAINTAIN, AND EVEN INCREASE IT. HE CROSSED THE LINE A FULL TWO STRIDES AHEAD OF HlS NEAREST RIVAL. The CROWD WENT WILD AS THE ANNOUNCER TOLD THEM THAT THE RECORD of Jesse Oy ens had been beaten by five-tenths of a second. WE REALIZED THAT IT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE TO SPEAK TO HlM NOW, SO WE LEFT THE STADIUM. AT THE ENTRANCE A PORTLY MAN IN SOMBER BLACK WAS CLIMBING INTO A RICKASHAW. WE COULD SCARCELY BELIEVE OUR EYES, BUT IT WAS true-— Harry Schwenk. we hailed him loudly and he turned with A BEAMING SMlLE ON HIS FACE. After the usual handclasps, he made known to us that he was in the ministry and had a sizeable congregation in Hongkong and WAS DUE THERE NOW. WE LEFT HIM AND HURRIED BACK TO THE SHIP. OUR NEXT STOP WAS to be Hawaii and after one day of uneventful sailing the shoreline HOVE INTO SIGHT AMD A FEW MINUTES LATER WE WENT ASHORE IN SMALL BOATS. THE PALM TREES SWAYED IN THE WARM BREEZE AND THE NATIVE® FROLICKED IN THE SURF OFFSHORE. WE SAT AT TABLES BENEATH THC SHADY PALMS AND ENJOYED A DELICIOUS FRUIT SALAD AND QUANTITIES OF COOL COCONUT MILK. The WAITER CAME HURRYING TO OUR TABLE AND TOLD US THAT THE MANAGER WISHED TO SEE US. WONDER INGLY WE FOLLOWED HIM TO THE OFFICE WHERE DOROTHY WE I ONER GREETED US. AFTER A LENGTHY CONVERSATION WE RETURNED TO THE SHIP FOR A GOOD NIGHT S REST. The next morning we started on another lap of our journey. That evening we sailed under the Oakland Bay Bridge and into San Francisco Harbor. Here I took leave of my friends who were to sail on through the Panama Canal and on to New York. I HAD DECIDED TO CONTINUE MY TRIP CROSS-COUNTRY BY PLANE. AT THE NOTEL • BOUGHT A NEWSPAPER AND WENT UPSTAIRS TO MY ROOM. THE NEWSPAPER MENTIONED THE FACT THAT THE ARMY-NAVY FOOTBALL GAME WAS TO BE HELD TOMORROW IN THE ROSE BOWL AS PASADENA. Early the next morning I boarded a dus, with a large throng OF PLEASURE SEEKERS AND SOON ARRIVED AT PASADENA. U The stands were packed and that afternoon I watched for three HOURS THE MOST EXCITING FOOTEALL GAME I HAD EVER SEEN LEFT HALFBACK for the Army was Donald Burgess who had miraculously grown a FOOT SINCE His HIGH SCHOOL DAYS. BWell, the Army won by a scope of i? to 0 and I managed to speak to Donald in the dressing room and later he presented mc to D WHOM I NEEDED NO INTRODUCTION, SHE BEING THE FORMER ARLENE PLACK. This mutual affection must have developed in very recent years for I HAD HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF IT. I OFFERED MY DELATED CONGRATULATIONS AND THE NEXT DAY JOURNEYED ON TO HOLLYWOOD. H While strolling about the studios and lots, by special permit I turned sharply in answer to a hearty hail ti at was undoubtedly MEANT FOR ME LEANING FROM THE WINDOW OF ONE OF THOSE COLLAPSIBLE HOUSES WAS 'RENE GERMAN. HER HEAn DISAPPEARED FROM THE WINDOW AND [1 SOON SHE APPEARED DESIDE ME DRESSED VERY STYLISHLY. SOMEHOW, I n HAD NEVER CONNECTED HER WITH THE NAME OF IRENE GERMAN, FAMOUS HOLLY-0 WOOD MAKE-UP ARTIST. SHE SAIL' THAT SHE WAS HAPPILY MARRIED, ALTHOUGH SHE HAD NEVER PUBLICLY CHANGED HER NAME. THIS WAS VERY INTERESTING BUT I WAS FORCED TO EXCUSE MYSELF HASTILY FOR I HAD BUT SEVEN MINUTES TO CATCH THE EAST-BOUND PLANE.
