192311936 lSTORY said to repeat itself. W'hether or not that statement is true, no class history will ever be a repetition of that of the class of ltjsfl. lfor twelve years we have been united in good times, difficulties, and pranks. lfpon reminiscing, we find that what were minor tragedies become very hnms orousg but the jokes are still as spicy as when they originated. i V Most histories have lots of dates. Ours is no exception, but for l'nrther in- tormatton about dates see the individual seniors-personally. 'l'hc first grade was made enjoyable for l'ark School students by Miss Strrkrf er. She took us on picnics, told us stories, and let two little girls take turns sitting on her lap. The second grade was made interesting by Miss Keep and her stickers as pnnislnnent for whispering. Une day Mr. lN'yandt walked into the room and saw Arnold Mignery and lllax Christinan sitting on the teacher's big chair with stick' ers on their mouths. That was one day when two little monkeys spoke no evil. ln the third grade Miss Smith helped us give a number of plays and prograins. 'l'he fourth grade seemed to be a battle of the sexes. lior some reason the boys and girls just cottldn't get along peaceably at recesses. 'l'hen Miss llultx would have to take time from classes to see that due apologies were made. Some- timcs it was even necessary for her to clean the mud oll' some of the victims. 'l'hat difficulty was settled in the fifth grade when we went to l,incoln School -the boys and girls were given separate play-grounds. l'ark and Lincoln school students mingled and new friendships were formed. ll'e learned that llfl rs. l,CllItlll thought' that the most effective method of discipline was to turn the brats over her knees and paddle them. t'l'hat should squelch tlte dignity of certain seniorsi. ln the sixth grade the girls formed a club. After having every imaginable name and aim. it finally became The Lucky Ig and its chief purpose was to have fun. The seventh and eighth grades at llark School held good times for all of us. We took a new interest in tor should l say a new interest toj the liriday matinees. The Night Riders tboys' elubll was organized. 'l'he boys got the idea either from a matinee serial or from a window-peeper. Many parties tour parents called too many l were sponsored by the Riders and the Lucky 13. Graduation was cele- lvrated'by commencement, followed by a party. The Freshman year gave us real difficulties. We were either absolutely in- significant or ridiculously conspicuous-we just couldn't strike a happy medium. tjf course the considerate upper-classmen didn't have anything to do with it. but they really were considerate in initiation at the lireslnnan Reception. Ute were in such dreadful condition from the gang nights that they had to be gentle lj ln the Sophomore year we gained a little recognition and discovered that li. lol. S. had its bright spots here and there. -luniorsl Lpperclassinen at last. We could participate in all the school acti- vities with a feeling of assurance. On the whole, we began to appreciate our high school days more and to take advantage of all school had to offer us. The big event of that year was the hlr.-Sr.-practically our first formal party. As Seniors we have little to say. We realize that we have had 'four years in high school to make or break the reputation of the class of jo. Only those who have been Seniors can appreciate the feeling we have for old llryan lligh School this year. lt would be impossible to express our gratitude to the faculty and school as a whole. Un leaving llryan High, I think the most of us feel satisfied that we have done our best-both for the school and for ourselves. No matter what the future holds for us, the impressions and 'friendships of our school days will never be forgotten.
