-1 '-,gf iff Class History I I In looking forward to the moment which is to terminate the career of our High School life, our feelings do not permit us to depart without acknowledging the debt of gratitude which we owe our beloved school and its faculty, who have guided us thus far through the tcmpestuous seas of learning. No one not in our situation can appreciate our feeling of sadness at this parting. To this place and to the kindness of these teachers we owe everything. XVe hereby pledge them our thanks and now turn to the pages of history indelibly written by the greatest class Eastern has ever known. As Freshmen, we felt that we could excellg as Sophomores, we knew that we would excellg as juniors we saw that we were excellingg as Seniors, we know that we have excelled. On Friday, the 28th of September, 1917, the first meeting of the Sophomore Class was held, and the following officers were elected: President, Leo Niedzielskig Vice-Pesident, Sarah Mangold, Secretary, Charles Shearer, Treasurer, Harry 'XValker. Green and VVhite were chosen as our class colors, and Lily-of-the-Valley as our flower. Then, to insure our future success, we chose Miss Monahan and Mr. Touse as honorary members. The President led a class of eighty through a very successful year, both socially and financially. The principal social event of the year was a masquerade party held at the home of Myra Hyatt. It was a huge success. The Junior Class election was held September 27th, 1918, and we elected the following officers: President, james E. Duffy, jr.: Vice-President, Pauline Gallagherg Secretary, Gladys Noonang Treasurer, Eric Speckhard. On account of the depart- ure of Mr. Touse from the faculty we chose Mr. Aeby to take his place as honorary member. The first of the many of the social activities of the junior Class was a party held at the home of Neal Moore. Trouble which resulted at this party was the cause of a series of resolutions which led up to the formation of the Student's Association, governed by the Student's Council. The purpose of this Association was to prevent further friction between the upper classes of the school. On February I.ltll, 1019, the first J Hop was held at the Colonial Club. It proved to be a great success. Next came the junior Play, Strongheart, the first four act play ever attempt- ed by any class of Emtern. This play made our reputation. After another party and a very successful dance given by the girls of the class, plans were made for the Annual Senior Send-Off. This Send-Off involved the ex- penditure of several hundred dollars, and had not disagreeable weather interfered ivould have proved our usual success. XVe started our Senior year by electing the following officers: President, Charles M. johnsong Vice-President, Gertrude Colving Secretary, Geraldine Brodeg Treasurer, Otto Bernthal. Our first splash was a party at the school. Needless to say it was another successful event added to our list of many. Soon after we held our first Senior Dance at the Board of Commerce Club. lt turned out to be a great success. , - v' '
