THIRD SOLO FLIGHT As we near the final phase of our flight, the skies become cloudy and the going rough, but we have full confidence that under the leadership of our four horsemen, the way will be made smoother and we shall ride to further glory and moke our journey one of the most outstanding in school history. As 12B's we had the honor!?) of receiving the Spotlight Tin Cup, having lost in the subscription contest. We had our revenge, however, when we in turn, as 12A's, presented it to the present 12B's. During the twelfth grade also, Howard Bailey hos been the first to receive the newly established aeroplane trophy. As 12B's we chose as our class colors. Blue and Silver. Our 12B party was a great success with the gay-colored dresses of the girls making a bright picture against the blue and silver decorations. As 12A's, we chose Pegasus as our class emblem. Ruth Dunlap made two very attractive designs of the emblem One of these was used in the class book-plates and tags, I2A Party napkins and donee programs; the other one on the Booklet cover. A number of our members have won recognition in various fields, but this will be taken up elsewhere.

We, the class of January 1935, do give and bequeath to our beloved schoolmates (the 12B's) our best wishes for their success, and our regret that we can no longer be with them. We also leave to the aforementioned class, our gracious dignity and our pleasing manners, together with our earnest prayer that they will make the fullest possible use of them. The class of January 1935, also bequeaths to the class of June 1935, the immense task of finding someone to re- 24 •
