MARGARET KEATES WINS POPULARITY CONTEST Margaret Keates, Margy to her pals, led in the popularity contest with 520 votes. Harriet Wetiel. a sophomore, came next with 270. The contest was sponsored by the Annual Staff with a view toward increased annual sales— a successful idea. Margy’s sweet, ever-pleasant smile won her the contest and the Seniors are justly proud— so is Margy . m

CLASS HISTORY With a feeling of regret we. the Seniors of Crooksville High, are preparing to turn our backs to our Alma Mater and our faces toward the horizon of life. It cannot be said that we have lived and toiled in vain. Our first year of blank-eyed wonder—more politely termed Freshman —in this great institution of learning, were profitable. We were well represented on the girl’s basketball squad by Reed. Allard. Kemerer. Karns, and Trout and by Dalrymple and Hughes on the boys. Oalrymple and White were our representatives on the gridiron in '31. Our class also won fame in the intramural games; in this way we were training ourselves for future athletics. But in our attempts to make the upper classmen take notice we did not neglect our lessons. In fact, several of our members were permitted to go to Athens to take a scholarship test at Ohio University. Marian Bittner. Elinor Madden, and Nora Jane Wolfe were our representatives. Many of us became members of both the Glee Club and Orchestra, and so well did we work that a few were chosen to take part in the County Music Festival. The characteristic greenness was departing fast. When we returned to our old familiar places the following year we now belonged . Again honors were heaped upon us. Clarence Dalrymple, Ralph Hughes, Orris Leeth, Oscar Abrams, Harold Nelson, and Fred Grube were among the heroes of the un-scored upon football team of '32. A growing feeling of importance characterized our Junior year. We then began working in earnest. Nearly all of the Junior girls became Ifka members. One of our class, Ronald Turner, took part in a Commercial Contest at Bowling Green, Ohio. The outstanding feature, however, was the reception given for the Seniors. The latent talent of our more dramatically inclined classmates was brought forth and bloomed in our class play PayAs You Enter a beginning perhaps for future stars. Seniors! How proud we are! Now we can command the respect of the admiring lower classmen. This year shows the climax of our years of burning midnight oil, of years of hopes and despairs. We are now the 400 . Every Senior has found himself a place among some of our numerous activities, however, there is just one purely scholastic organization—the B Club. Among the honors brought to our class this year was the selection of three seniors: Marion Bittner. Grace Cusick and Helen Coulter, for membership in the National Honor Society, and the choosing of five members to take a scholarship test in New Lexington, namely: Nora Jane Wolfe, Leanna Stephenson, Helen Coulter, Elinor Madden and Maurey Boone. We Seniors made ourselves responsible for the success of the All School play in which we were ably represented. Nelson, Abrams, Leeth, Woodward, Giles, Grubb, Chaffin, Boone (Manager), and Talbot (Manager) received letters for their work on the varsity teams. The girls who received varsity letters were: Allard. Kemerer and Keates (Manager). The championship intramural trophy was awarded to the seniors as they had obtained 61 of 80 possible points in all sports. And dignified as we are—we produced Mama's Baby Boy as our Senior Play. As a grand finale came Class Honor Night, May twenty-third. The theme of the program was English, and the ten participants, the upper twenty-five percent of the Class, gave speeches to carry out the central idea. Marian Bittner acted as Valedictorian and Elinor Madden as Salutator-ian. The others were Helen Coulter, Leanna Stephenson, Nora Jane Wolfe, Grace Cusick, Gretchen Grube, Janice Reed. Beatrice Allard and Ronald Turner. The Senior Class as a body attended the Baccalaureate service in the M. E. Church and returned a more thoughtful group. But on no night were we so proud and so scared, as the night of the twenty-fifth. Attorney Hugh Martin delivered the address. But how high we held our heads—and oh, how proud, when we were handed our diplomas. This was to be our certificate of membership in the great world of career—the proof of our unceasing toil. Regretful we may be in leaving such a congenial atmosphere, but we shall attack the future with our usual vim. Even while we are sadly bidding farewell, we are joyously bidding welcome. =34 PAGE 17
