The seniors have spent much time in raising money, by means of candy sales, concessions at both football and basketball games, as well as sponsoring sunset dances at various intervals during the school year. Then too, orange and black pencils were sold on which was printed the basketball schedule for the l933-34 season. During the second semester came the problem of choosing the cast for the annual senior class play. In the spring came the annual senior picnic, for which committees were chosen and work begun to plan for the picnic which was held in the latter part of May. Reminiscing over our high school days, wherein we worked and played together, we find it no easy task to think of departing from the beloved halls of D. T. H. S. where we have become so attached and have spent many happy hours. From green to greener fields we go where we know other opportunities await us, if only we shall go in search of them.

SENIORS OF 1934 ,M gr- ,,gM 1. - -LM Myl- Q- 4.5 Q' C' - Marguerite Carnal Senior Adviser 'E-- ,.,.. To Miss Marguerite Carnal, our class ad- viser, the senior class of 1934 wishes to express their appreciation for her painstaking efforts and willingness to aid us whenever in difficul- ties throughout our junior and senior years. Without Miss Carnal, our class would never have attained that high goal wished for by all members of the class. She was ever occupied with the class organization at the beginning of the year, the senior promenade, the senior class play, and the graduation exercises, which make up a very busy senior year. She has given un- tiringly and unselfishly, and thus has gained the loyal support and admiration of the entire class. The junior officers of the class of 1934 be- gan the activities of this excellent class last year. They were: president, Mike Rocheg vice-president, Alyne Jenseng secretary, Vega Norrbyg treasurer, Neilo Koskig sergeant-at- arms, Paul Blair. They acted as the nominat- ing committee to select the officers for the year of 1934 when the class, composed of 146 mem- bers was organized at the beginning of the year. The nominees were: for president, Gilbert Frey and Larry Keegang for vice-president, Mariann Swanson and Evelynne jacobsong secretary, Carol Montgomery and Elsie Peurag treasurer, Marjorie Beals and Neilo Koskig and sergeant-at-arms, Howard Eychaner and Carl White. The class election took place during the first part of October. The results which were made public at a later meeting were: president, Larry Keegang vice-president, Evelynne jacobsong secretary, Elsie Peurag treasurer, Neilo Koskig and sergeant-at-arms, Carl White. We wish to thank the oflicers of this class, who have so successfully led us through our last two years. All are needed by each one, Nothing is fair or good alone.

Unlike previous years the dance was held at the beginning of the school year rather than in the spring. This plan was adopted to prevent too much social activity during the final weeks of school. The gymnasium was tastefully decorated in fall colors-shades of yellow, brown and lavender. A canopy of autumn leaves was over the entire gym ceiling. Garden furniture was placed around the wall so that onlookers might enjoy themselves. Programs for the dance were in the shape of autumn leaves. committee the night of decorating for the prom In order that the class might economize with their funds the fruit frappe was made by a com- mittee composed of members of the class. The grand march of the prom was led by Lawrence Keegan and Elsie Peura. The two classes were honored at the dance by the presence of Dr. and Mrs. A. C. Spickerman, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Colvin, Mr. and Mrs. P. R. Rutledge and Miss Catherine Dennis, as chaper- ones, while the guests of honor were Mr. and Mrs. R. G. Beals, Miss Irma Wittke, and the re- maining members of the school board. FORMERLY STAGE ROADS .... A STREET CAR COMPANY HAD CARS TRAVELING
