Senior (’lass History ■ (hi September 1. 1928. one hundred eight intelligent and knowledge-seeking Freshmen entered the ranks of Casey High. After spending a few weeks in acquainting ourselves w ith this new regime, we chose the following class officers: Leah Deverick. president; Donald Lippincott, vice president; and Robert Davis, secretary and treasurer. Miss Hooker was our advisor. In October wre bravely withstood the torturous treatment that the Seniors so unmercifully imposed upon us. At the end of the term, after having fully recuperated from the cruel treatment mentioned above, we royally entertained the Juniors at a picnic at Twin Lakes, Paris. When we returned in 1929. we were very dignified Sophomores. Although eleven of our members had fallen by the wayside, we still had the largest class. 'I bis year the following class officers wrere elected: Lois Chrysler, president; Evelyn Brookhart, vice president; and Lucille Moran, secretary and treasurer. Miss Hooker was retained as our advisor. During the football season we tied with the Seniors in the float contest before the Palestine game for second prize. We also assumed an active part in the Senior Stunt Show. Even then our keen native intelligence was apparent. W e had the greatest percentage of tjie students making the honor roll. We also were well represented in athletics. Robert Davis, Harold Ashley, Dean Rogers, and Lester Alier were the Sophomores who made the football team. Harold Ashley and Robert Davis played on the first team in basketball. In 1930. with the exception of a few, we were all hack and prepared for action. We, as Juniors, accomplished many things. Our class officers were: Evelyn Rrookhart, president; Clarence Sidwcll, vice president; and Geneva Funk, secretary and treasurer. The grand success of the season was the Junior Class play, “The Whole Town’s Talking.” The success of this play is due to Miss Ennis, who was the director, and to the hard work of the east. As in 1929. we were well represented in athletics, both in football and in basketball. The Junior girls received first place in the interclass volleyball tournament. Both the singles and doubles of tennis that represented C.T.H.S. were Juniors. We participated in the Senior Stunt Show. In order to earn legal tender, we sold candv in the main corridor at noon ami also at basketball and football games. Success came at last: We wrere Seniors! The officers were: Robert Davis, president; Donald Lippincott, vice president; and Merlic Gallatin, secretary and treasurer. Mr. Dickerson and Miss Armstrong were our advisors. The first event of importance was the Freshman initiation which was held in the form of a play party. Next, we had the Senior Stunt Show. In May, the Juniors showed their pleasant company manners by entertaining us at the Junior-Senior banquet. And then came graduation! It is with great sorrow that we leave the scene of so many pleasant memories. May the Juniors carry on the great work that we have so nobly done. 22
