- THE LAIR From Cub to Kiinj ORNiNG comes fast in the Jungle—the sun blazes forth between the dark green of the heavy foliage and brings with it a burning heat. Deep in the heart of the Jungle is a secret lair. The ferns are disturbed and a tawny figure stands out in dazed bewilderment. It is a lion cub, inexperienced as yet in the ways of the forest. The vast jungle seems full of possibilities and fraught with many dangers, but the cub turns, alert to meet the future. In that manner the January class of 1931 made their entrance four years ago when they stood upon the threshold of high school. They entered their freshmen year with the same timorous mien and cautiously watched the actions of the sophomore, junior, and senior classes. Becoming more confident, as did our cub, they, in their sophomore year, realized more fully their responsibilities and determined to bring their class through with flying colors, and achieve the supremacy that a class of their type should and would secure. The courage portrayed by their symbolic lion was with them even then; and. as it was king and leader, so they would be. Juniors!—and with that attainment came their participation in many social activi ties. Who can forget the performances given by I.ois Altman, Robert Johnston, Rennet McGee, Ray Franzen, Al Taylor, and Max Malavasic in Quality Street,” Pickles,” and The Thirteenth Chair?” These members of their class and others justly earned the applause of the entire school (including the present 12B’s!). It was at this time too, that they mourned the departure of Mr. Earl Gudinkunst as their grade adviser, and welcomed the coming of Papa” Stringer, a man well versed in the art of living peacefully in the heart of a jungle! Leaders in the Jungle, leaders in studies, they determined also to be leaders in new ideas. This plan was carried out when as 12B’s their homerooms were united into a single body in Room 201. Their first great achievement was the election of class officers. Much growling and fur-flving took place before they wisely chose Norma I.ockner, president; Edward Murray, vice-president; Lois Altman, secretary; William Novince, treasurer. Next in line was the choice of colors and a name. Green and white were chosen to represent the jungle; and the entire school bowed in admiration as the class proudly came forward with its unexcelled adjective, LEON rOCEPI 1ALOLJS”—(lion-hearted), which they considered typical of the past and symbolic of the future. It was at this time, too, that they staggered the school with their original choice of modernistic rings. The social peak of the 12B career was achieved at the prom, voted by students and teachers alike, One of the best. Then came that day in September when at last Lcontocephalous, a cub no longer, green and white ribbons fluttering ’round his massive throat, his tawny head reared proudly, a fascinating picture of might and strength, surveyed his surroundings— King of the Jungle” at last! It was after the unanimous re-election of their 12B officers at the beginning of their 12A term, that they honored the 12B's with a dance, which proved a huge success. The entire jungle suffered an irreparable loss from the death of their comrade, Ellen Cameron on October 6, 1930. The Senior Prom, December 18, was an event long to be remembered. Under the flickering light of the huge electric sign, Francis Solomon, toastmaster, wittily intro- [25]
