THE WITAN In the year of our Lord 1926, the student body of Charlotte High School was very greatly enriched by having added to its midst the class of .June, 1930. Although we weren’t much to look at with such boys as Bill Tarr, Norman King and the Tom Thumb” of the class, Paul Graden, still wearing short pants, the noise we made accounted for our importance in the school. We were quite unaware of the cruelty of the seniors until they thrust upon us these laws, that, as Freshmen, we were obliged to obey: 1. All Freshmen should not comb their hair for two days. 2. Freshmen should wear two differ- ent colored stockings and shoes thnt were not mates. 3. Freshmen girls should wear baby clothes and boys should come in their shirt sleeves. After being duly initiated and the boys defeated in a Hag rush by the sophomores, we found the whole school ready to accept us. Mrs. du Vigneaud was our class ad- viser, und Howie Rowe and .Joe Spitz our presidents. We had one very large party that term at which we taught the hoys to dance for our future use. Of course, no one could teach Red Kelly becaus it is a known fact that he was born with a pair of dnneing slippers in his hand. When we were sophomores we really began to improve, both in looks and in wisdom. The boys added a few inches to their trousers and made them plus- fours, while the girls subtracted a few inches from their skirts. At this time our dist'nguished president Bruce Berg- ener made his debut at Charlotte, That year Mrs. du Vigneaud left our school and we were fortunate to have Miss Emerson take her place. We had a joint party that term with the class of January, 1931, when we became ar- qua nted with the class which succeeds us. We especially enjoyed our Junior term We held our first dinner party at Kay Kemp’s Aside from Fred Rohr’s having water spilled on his best Fuit and the breaking of a few dishes by our very efficient male members of the class, no serious accidents resulted. During our final term ns Junions, while other classes were laboring over English tests, we had a picnic at Dur- and-Eastman Park. If any pupils, or teachers either, have doubts of the g rls in our class as cooks they wouldn’t if they could have seen the food put on that table. In fact we had so much to eat that we gave part of it away to those less fortunate than we were that day. We started our Senior year by having a sausage roast at Mary Mitchell’s. We held an in-door putting content at her home, and Miss Emerson showed up the ignorance of most of us when it comes to golf. Last term, with the class of January 1930, we gave our Senior Play called Appleblossom Time.” The fun we had in giving this play more than paid us for the time we spent in rehearsals. This year the girls began to show their athletic ability by winning the bas- ketball tournament and also the Gym- nasium meet with the class of January 1931. 16
