Hauser, Bill W est» I)ave Kinney; sportswomen, Dorothy Graham, Eloise Mitchell, et cetera into eternity; musicians, “Barb” Btullong, “Bob” Poland, and AU)erta I ec. Then, too, we have made the school what it is. (What is it?) As “f reshies” we traveled between buildings on opposite sides of Lake Avenue until the now school was finally completed. Remember the pounding of workmen’s hammers and the noisy machines? Our intelligent and carefree abilities were devoted to our new school. We continued our service by arranging the senior party in our third year; it was very successful. In our first year we had to use the pools of other schools in order to swim. During this time Harold Shaffer was the school swimming champion. Our heads rose when we saw our own new pool, but soon lowered when the Board of Educa- tion added a prohibition amendment to the constitution of Rochester schools. We hope our followers will find water in it before they have to leave. Meml ers of our class participated variously in radio broadcasts over station WHEC. Among them were George Graham, David Gilkeson, Robert La Pave, Robert Poland, and Kenneth Henderson. Did you know: 1. That one of our homeooms had 100% in 10-10? 2. That D. Gilkeson and A. Halbleib won popularity contests in our sopho- more year? ¥ 3. That our class was near the top, if not the top in donations to the Memorial scholarship Fund? 4. That I). Gilkeson won a trip through Southern Historical Battlefields? 5. That R. LeFave was toastmaster at the awards night supper? Losses as well as additions pursue everyone through life, our two greatest losses were Eileen Guyett who has had a nervous breakdown, and Eleanor Fearnlev who has been forced to leave Charlotte to attend Irondequoit because her parents purchased a home there. But our additions are not occasions for sorrow! We are very happy to have “Wee Willie” West, “Bob” LaFave, and “Bob” Aldrich with us. There are those who say little, yet accomplish much; Margaret Ames. Ruth Turk, Gladys Thorpe, Beatrice Goldthorpe, etc. What could we do without Joe Reardon—or without Betty Wagner to help us on the Wit an t The most dominant factor in our class history is the TEACHERS, guiding us, advising us, and with parental cooperation they have made us in an indisputable sense. We, the class imbeciles (historians to you) instigators of this document ho| e you will regard this as “senior” and forgive our making a class prophecy, more or less, of a class history. Of course, you can’t tell what is going to happen to sonic, or what has already happened to others. Hereby submitted hut not for your approval, Caroline Brewer, David Gilkeson, Historians. To some, histories are dull and dry To them then, this will be null and wry. TWBSTYOXK
