-+l0 The Carlisleite U+ In 1926 we moved upstairs to the seventh grade, where Mr. John M. Lane was to be our teacher. No pupils ca-me to stay with us during these years. In the eighth grade Mr. Russell Cahall was our teacher. Starting our freshman year we were to have two teachers: Miss Mary Case and Mr. W. E. Smith. In 1929 Martha Lanier and Rollan Calihan joined with us. VVhen we moved into the new school house in 1930 we were surprised to see four new pupils anxiously awaiting our arrival. They were: Florence Eby, Frank Mears, and John and Walter Squier. We were very surprised to find two new teachers, lNIiss Ruth Brown and Mr. R. H. Spiers, here also. The juniors took more active part in athletics than any other class in school. Our boys basketball team captained by one of the junior boys was composed mostly of juniors. The girls team was proud to place three of the juniors on the first team all of the time and sometimes there were more than three. Track brought a big number of juniors out and we have high hopes for our juniors in track. Well. goodbye until next year. VVe'll see you in our Senior year. George Leichty, '32, The Junior-Senior Banquet The Juniors delightfully entertained the Senior Class of 1931, and the Faculty on lVIay sixteenth, with a dinner and a theater party. A delicious four-course banquet-dinner was served in the dining hall of the school building. This room was beautifully decorated to represent a flower garden, carrying out the color scheme of the two classes. The tables added to the charm of the room with their tapering green candles, nut cups, and favors for the guests. The Senior Class and the Faculty were welcomed by Charles Chamberlain, the president of the Junior Class. The response was made by Carrie Louise Mount, the president of the Senior Class. Much merriment was afforded all when the Last Will and Testament was read by Victoria Leichty, and the Class Prophecy by Pearl Poast. Toasts were given by Supt. Smith and Miss Brown. The last feature of the evening's entertainment was motoring to Middle- town where all enjoyed a show at the new Paramount Theatre. 10.- UP TO DATE MODELS You can always tell a Sophomore by the way he climbs the stair, You can always tell a Junior by the way he combs his hair. You can always tell a Senior by his body strong and tall, But you canit tell a Freshman anything at all. - E. Sherron. Page Si.:-teen
