The smeere gratitude of fl class my that has successfully reaeherl ils goal, goes to Miss M1u'Furlmul. class adviser. For three years, her spirit and enthusiasm toirarfls the Class of 936 has been evifleneerl in her leadership. 'ff as . . . nd ow we giants FTER THREE YEARS of being looked down upon by the higher-ups, the class of '36 has finally reached the top and is able to do the look- ing down. Officers who presided over the class for the year were Bill Sackerson, president, Clyde Kennedy, vice-presidentg Dorothy Seymour, secretary, Earle Brines, treasurer, Virginia Self, song queen, Rudolph Gideon, yell king. To start their last year off with a bang, the Seniors gave the first dance of the school year. As football was in full swing the dance was appropri- ately called the Senior Scrimmage. The gym was decorated in the school colors and the tickets were in the shape of footballs to help carry out the theme. The members of the committee, under Josephine Charlet, who success- fully managed this affair were: Harvey Paddock, Donna Conrad, Betty Lucas, Beulah Packard, Allan Keatley, Bob Wise, Mable Baker, Roy Davis, Ted Hartwell, and Lydia Burdick. One of the things that proved the Seniors were up on their toes was the presentation of three one-act plays, in December, in place of the usual full length three-act comedy. Ofn May 15, the animal Senior Ball was held in the school gym. This dance was the climax of the Senior social year. The Class picnic was held at Offut Lake. The finale of the Senior year was the Baccalaureate ceremony on May 24 and the Commencement exercises on May 28 held in the high school auditorium. Reverend Jones delivered the Baccalaureate address. The Commencement program was a demonstration type. Students from differ- ent curricular departments took part in the program. Page Fifteen

S., registered for four busy years of study and activity. The first business conducted was the election of officers. The honors for the year went to Bob Kerstetter, president, Beulah Packard, vice- president, Helen Tracy, secretaryg Josephine Charlet, treasurer, Zela Faye Gillespie, song queen, and Verne Neitert, yell king. These officers carried the class through a successful year in which an all-school assembly was presented. This assembly, consisting of two short plays and other skits, gave the Freshmen their initial perform- ance before the student body. The year was climaxed with a picnic at Borst Park. Much credit is due Miss Wing, adviser, for the successful year. As not-so-green Sophomores, the officers of the class consisted of Josephine Charlet, president, Dorothy Seymour, vice-president, Helen Tracy, secretary, Cleo Koontz, treasurer, Olive Staples, song queen, and Ernest Copley, yell king. These '36ers showed C. H. S. a brilliant year as Juniors. The- class chose the following officersr Mercier Cunningham, presidentg Harvey Paddock, vice-presidentg Helen Tracy, secretary, Earle Brines, treasurerg Islavene Bryant, song queen, and Verne Neitert yell king. The Junior Prom, the first to be held in the high school, was one of the biggest social successes of the year. The decorating scheme used was a marine motif, depicting a ship. Two things which helped to carry out the scene were the gang plank placed at the entrance and the pro- grams which were printed as ship tickets. Much credit for the success of this affair is due Donna- Conrad, general chairman. The year ended with a picnic at Deep Lake. Page lfourtccn J 7-142 GIG
