SENIORS As we seniors receive our diplomas and pass through the portals of Crooksville High, never to pass that way again in the capacity of high school students, we wish to express our heart-felt gratitude to the faculty, to our fellow classmen and to our mothers and fathers who have made possible four such happy and profitable years. In the picture above are the class officers: Margaret Burley, Margaret Coulter, Ruth Tatman.

NINETEEN HISTORY In 19,33 seventy-six students left the train which had been carrying them for eight years to stay awhile at the station known as the Freshman year. In that year we elected four members to the Student Council and were well represented in the various sports. Two of our classmates represented us in the Junior High School Play, “Pol-lyanna.” Several of our members were on the honor roll through the entire year. After we had been at this station for approximately nine months, we boarded the train for the next stop which was the Sophomore year. Here again we showed ourselves to be leaders by having four of our members take parts in the all-high school play “I Like Your Nerve.” We were well represented in the music department both in Orchestra and the Hoys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs. A few of our classmen portrayed roles in “The Garden Minstrel.” All too soon the conductor called “All aboard” and we were on the train again. Half of our journey was ended. As the train pulled into the “Junior Year” we all looked forward to our stay wondering if this stop would be as pleasant and exciting as the other stops had been. We had hardly started to settle down for our stay here, when we decided to organize. We held a meeting and the officers elected were President, Martha King; Vice President, T.ois Kincaid, and Secretary-Treasurer, Marjorie Sowers. Our rep resentatives to the Student Council were Margaret Jean Coulter, Margaret Burley, George Burley, and James Cannon. Of these four, two were elected officers of this group. Again we had representatives in Boys' and Girls' Clubs and Orchestra. This year several of our members went to New Lexington to take part in the Perry County Music Festival. Because of the interest in good books, several students became interested in the idea of a club. With the help of Mr. Fell, this club was organized and became known as the Bebe Club, and later the Scribes. This year the girls were eligible for membership in the Ifka Club. Early in the fall, fifteen girls were initiated into this club and during this year, worked hard to help make the club a success. Six of the boys in our little group were taken into the l li-Y Club and they too were active in all the work of their dub. Three of our students took part in a scholarship contest and these three came back as winners. A commercial contest was held at our school and six of our group took part in this. They were Marjory Turner, Margaret Jean Coulter, Thelma Eveland, Frances Dillehay, Marjorie Sowers, and Ruth Tatman. Two of these girls won first places. Margaret Jean Coulter and Martha King were chosen for the National Honor Society which is an organization which emphasizes scholarship along with leadership, service, and character. Several of the boys in our group played on the varsity team and all deserve commendation for their good work. Those students interested in Dramatics were thrilled when announcement was made for tryouts for the Junior Play “Skidding.” Ten students were selected and the rest of the class took active part in getting everything ready. Our play was very successful and with the money earned we sponsored the Junior-Senior Prom which was the high spot of the year. It is now time to board the train for our last journey. We have at last reached our destination. During our four years we have left several of our members behind and now we are a group numbering 31. This year when we reorganized, the following officers were elected: Margaret Jean Coulter, President; Margaret Burley, Vice President, and Ruth Tatman, Secretary-Treasurer. Those elected to Student Council were Hazel Sanborn. Frances Dillehay, George Burley, and Edwin Allard. We chose as our class colors. Silver and Blue, as the flower the White Rose, and motto “To be ratber than to seem.” The next important event was the organization of the History “B” Club. Officers elected were Hazel San- t Page Ten
