Page eighteen T he W I T A N Ou of the Past It was a rather bewildered and inexperi- enced group of boys and girls that entered Charlotte High School in September of the year nineteen hundred twentv-nine. Those en- rolled in commercial courses gathered in room 106 under the supervision of Mr. Tracy, while those enrolled in academic courses met in room 105 under the supervision of Mr. Lacy. Our first day was one of pleasant memories punctuated with reminders that we had entered wrong doors, used wrong stairs, and badly mixed our teachers’ names. Class elections were held early in the school year making Walter Smith our president; Winston Clifford, vice-president; and Blanche Gauthier, secretary. In November we were entertained at a party at number 38 school, by the upper-classmen. It was an enjoyable event as well as painful, inasmuch as most of the boys in the class were learning to dance. The second year found us with a new class adviser, Miss Bitter, who has faithfully stayed with us to the end. Election of class officers was again held and James Walters was elected president; Robert Grabenstetter, vice-presi- dent ; and Blanche Gauthier, secretary. Among the memorable occasions during our Sopho- more year were a hot-dog roast, promoted by Sally” Gordon, and held at )ntario Beach park, and a Sophomore party held in the so- called assembly hall of the old school. At the end of our second year we had a class of ninety-eight members. During the third year many of our members were prominent in athletics and school activi- ties. We were slowly becoming the leaders of our school. Our fourth and last year of high school has lieen full of excitement. Class elections were again held and the following officers were elected: Mary VanKestern, president; Walter Smith, vice-president; and Blanche Gauthier, secretary. We collaborated with the class « i January 1934, in presenting a senior play en- titled “Skidding.” Our class president l ccame also the student association president and we embarked on a series of informal class meet- ings; argued much and said little. As we gladly and yet reluctantly see our last year draw to a close, we have something of The Cruise of the “Classy” 1 started a four years cruise And sailed away 'lis true Without much wide experience It’s result I leave to van. First Miss Miner roused my thoughts And helped me find my way. And then, when I was much ton gay Mrs. Denise just saved the day. 1 sometimes have quite hungered For the best in life—a friend Then stepped Miss Watt beside uie And my search uxts at an end. When we were in mid-ocean 11V changed our captain friend For we knew that another vessel He must go away to tend. Efficient is the time Cap's name He helps to sail ns well All hail to “N. G. IV.” We hope he'll stay a spell. The name of my boat was Classy ; The officers twenty odd, Hone of my mates were sassy. ’Chough like peas in a pod. I painted my ship green and white And think it pretty too And J later loved the color Fecause it sailed so true. Our trip is almost (rver, We soon will part and sigh We've given our best endeavor To our glorious Charlotte High. J. Bright man. which to be very proud—the senior class of June nineteen hundred thirty-three is the larg- est class that has ever been graduated from Charlotte High School. Dorothy Durrans. Class Historian.
