JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET The Junior-Senior Banquet The Junior-Senior banquet was given on May 15, 1937. The gymnasium was beautifully decorated on the plan of a May day festival. The May pole ruse in the center and from its top, streamers extended to the walls, forming a false ceiling. Baskets of lilacs and tulips were arranged about the pole on the floor. The tables formed a large square around the pole and flowers. The class colors, orchid and gold, were used to decorate the tables, purple lilacs and yellow roses being used. After the banquet each senior girl was presented with the class flower, the yellow rose. The toastmaster, Frank Garrity, ably presided over ceremonies throughout the evening. After the welcome speech by the Junior president, John Feely, and the response by the Senior president, Leo Garrity, the toasts were given by Mr. Kibler, Joann Grosenbach, Helen Ford, and Miss Stoutemyer. The class prophecy was read by Bernadine Ehman and the class will by Virginia Perkins. The menu was as follows: Fruit cocktail. Ham Loaf, New Potatoes, Peas and Carrots, Lime Jello Salad, Olives, Rolls, Lemon Sherbet, Coffee, and Wafers.

Twenty-eight blue robes trimmed in orange were purchased to outfit last years glee club. This number was insufficient to clothe the glee club this year as only three Seniors were lost by graduation and nine new members gained by the incoming Freshmen. However, some of the upper classmen were not out for glee club this year so the total enrollment was about thirty. The girls practiced hard on the following selections which they used on music night, at the Vermillion Valley and District Contest; A Madrigal in May” and Italian Street Song . They will also sing for the baccalaureate service. Janette Beck was the accompanist at the piano this year.
