Pepinella The Pepinella girls started out the year by selling tickets and candy at the football games. They took an active part in the cheering. New members were taken in a wee k before Christmas and appeared at the Lowell — Crown Point game as kids with hair ribbons and dolls. A few prospective yell leaders were discovered. After Christmas the initiation party was neld. We regret to remember that Wilma, Evelyn and Irene suffered ill effects, but they weren’t lasting. The “Date Party” was the biggest event of the year. Exciting things happened both Saturday and Sunday. Of course everyone danced and partook of the refreshments. Some of the alumni honored us with their pres¬ ence, also Wilma Beaver, whom we were all glad to see. The boys are all anxious to see the girls’ pins which they expect to get soon. As to the seniors what will the rest of the club do without: — Maxine making bright remarks during the meetings. Millie collecting dues. Alice F. Giggling.

Harry Steinman John Bareman Robert Ross Kenneth Linton Junior Class History (Continued from Page 12) feminine part of the crew (Miss Green’s and Mrs. Thomas’ advisory groups) enjoyed a most thrilling evening of hot dogs and pickles at Wonder Lake. Part of the crew was called upon to entertain the older and younger shipmates about the first of 1930. This was most successfully done by the presentation of “The Wasp’s Nest”, a mystery comedy in three acts. The day after this the Varsity football team tied Lowell High school team and the Class of ‘32 united with the Athletic Association in a “Victory Dance”. Some hop! Everything sailed along smoothly from then on. Not once did the motor miss. Affairs were too calm (exam worries excepted) so the Royal Eagles of the air threw a Christmas Dance which proved es¬ pecially beneficial for some. (How about it, Gibbs?) Full speed again after Christmas vacation! Clear sailing after mid¬ year exams. A high point in class history when the junior boys won the preliminaries of the inter-class basket ball tournament and held the sophs to a bard battle at the finals. More happiness! When late in the third flight, the annual Spring Dance ensued. All those who manned the Blue and Gold dirigible on the first three flights are looking forward to the great fourth flight through the clear skies of Seniordom. Auditorium Program 1931-32 Charles E.

Kennth Haniford also played end and did it equally as well as the others. Wilbur Blocker, a veteran tackle, had a habit of getting through the line, and blocking punts or getting the runner. Walter West also played tackle, being his first year made him rather inexperienced. Malcolm Stonex, was a reliable tackle, although rather light for his position. He worked hard and will be a great help next year. Bob Sullivan was a fast half back. He did much of the punting and was good at tackling. Kenneth Linton played a good game at quarter back. He was a fast man and downed many pros¬ pective heroes. Malcolm Clark played half back. Although inexperienced, he was a good defensive man. Earl Buckley played end, but was rather inexperienced, being only a first year man. Orville Truelly, guard, played very well. He was a good passer from center. Bill Fifield, half back, aften broke through on offense. Bob Ross, guard, will be a fine man for next year-. Harold Hershman played tackle or guard. Harold Meeker could play end and was a fast open field man. John Bareman played tackle or guard, although rather light.

Honor Roll— Jeanne Witkowski Crowell Knight Roland Lisius “Well, I just sold that fine new encyclopedia to Katherine Fisher.” “Why, I thought she already knew more than any encyclopedia.” “Yes, she admitted that but said she would get a thrill going through it and picking out all the errors.” Rose B—You don’t love me any more. When you see me crying now you don’t ask me why. Herbie — I’m awfully sorry, dear, but that question has already cost me a lot of money.
