THE 1935 ALLEGHAN IAN In September we went on a hike which was enjoyed very much. Our next activity was a delightful party in October, when the girls “dated” the boys. I he Seniors rings were also ordered in the same month. In November we had a theatre party. Before the mid-night show we enjoyed games, dancing, and the like, at Emily James ' home. On November 20, the Senior play, “ I he Comic Supplement,” was given and was greatly enjoyed by those present. We had a very delightful party in January. In February, the Junior- Senior Party was given in onr honor and we had a grand time. In March, our Alleghanian w as sent to the publishers. We are very proud of the fact that we are the first class since that of ' 21 to publish an annual. The events of the last three months of our sojourn in high school will have to be recorded elsewhere. At present, we are anticipating them with much pleasure as well as a little sadness. Our class, which is the twenty-eighth to leave the Clifton Forge High School, consists of seventy-six students. As the first class, that of 1908, had only three students, our alma mater has made excellent progress in the size of its classes. Thus far, Clifton Forge High School has presented diplomas to 847 students. Our class should bring this total to 923. When our diplomas are presented, we shall receive them with a feeling of gratitude to all who have helped us attain our goal. We shall leave with a feeling of sadness that our paths must separate. We shall leave our under¬ classmen with the hope that they shall always he faithful to the ideals of our beloved High School. -Frances Van Lear Congratulations, Seniors! Jf JV 0, • M . f - C.a
