SENIORS We will soon be independent, And choose our work for life, Will we be Teachers? Doctors? Nurses? And make the best of all our strife? We’ve strived to get an education. And now we’ve got it, what is next? How to choose an occupation, Is a problem quite perplexed. Continue being open-minded, And seek advice from those who know. Daily strive for what is better, It’s the best track on which to go. —Iva Dennis.

CLASS HISTORY Way, way back in the fall of '35, 53 green little freshmen came tripping up the school walk determined to “get an education. The first thing was a “wow,’ of an initiation, the last one at C’ville High. We had active participation in Football, Hi-Y, Glee Club, Scouting, Bible Study and Declamation. We had two excellent get-togethers in the form of parties. With a lot of pleasant memories, school closed for our first eventful year. Next fall 50 gay Sophomores came swinging hack to C. H. S. Members of our class took first and second places in the Sunday School Oratorical Contest and two of our class took part in the A. A. play. We also took active part in the other activities. With two parties we dis- banded again for vacation. Happy and looking for a good time, we came skipping back in September with a lot of newcomers from Conklin, Allendale, Eamont and Nunica. And yet, trying to maintain a certain bit of dignity, for we had attained the grand title of upper classmen. With boys out for football who received letters. We had an excellent class play, which drew a large crowd. Quite a few of the class took part in an operetta given by the Glee Clubs entitled “An Old Kentucky Garden. We had one party and we had a lot of fun in the preparations for our Junior-Senior banquet. Amid the rush of semester tests, the banquet and commencement, we bade each other a hurried farewell. And back to school again! Not this time looking up to the grand and glorious SENIORS, but actually belonging to them! With the addition to our school completed, and some new teachers, it seemed like a new place. With a great many out for football, we left a good record behind. Members of our class took part in baskelball, baseball and track. For the girls, Eloise Strong made an excellent record in girls’ basketball. With eight of our class in the cast, the A. A. play entitled “It’s Papa Who Pays,” made an excellent hit. We published the Zenith, our school annual. Members of our class were in the Student Council and many were represented in the various other activities. An excellent time was had by all at the Scavenger Hunt held on March 11. And so, with misty eyes and gay farewells, we bid adieu but this time, for some of us, for life. GERTRUDE ADEMA
