F Z Elm, sinh cgnlh 'Rf JIUNIIGRS Between ch.ildhood and old age When youth is young and plays, Come those happy times That are known as our High. School days. I hear in the halls of the Township High The chatter of one hundred and one Freshies talk, And Mr. Nagel's threatening voice And his building-shaking walk. From room. thirteen, I see old '30 Roaming around the aisles, Grave Rachel and laughing Zella, And all the faces wreathcd with smiles. A whisper and then a chuckle, Then they give their heads a toss, They are plotting and planning together To show their talents in Who's the Boss. A sudden rush to Sophomore days, A sudden growing wise, By 'now we are ninety-five Sophs, While the teachers are full of sighs. And some climb to football glory, And track with mud every hall. Then, if you doubt our ability, Jusi 'watch us play basketball. They soon recognized all our talents, With cheerfulness deep in our hearts, In The Cross-eyed Parrot and The China Shop We were given leading parts. And now we reached our Junior days, Because we were gay and jolly, For uve studied and worked and played and sang, And didn't indulge in folly. In Mail Order Brides we furnished so-me stars 5 We put on Seventeen, At every debate and activity We're always on the scene. This year we worked both hard and fast And gave a prom so fine To show our love and deep respect To the Class of Twenty-Nine. As Seniors, we will keep our faith To Derry Township High And make next year the greatest one That ever will go by. And when Commencement? over, And we've reached the parting ways, We'll let our fancies travel back To our happy high school days. 24

SOPIHIGMCDRES After eight years of preparation some one hundred and thirty-five indi- viduals banded together and invaded the halls of Derry Township High School. September 5, 1927 we, the Class of '31, settled in rooms one and thirteen and spent the first weeks of our high school life clearing away forests Qfear of the Seniorsy, planting crops Cseeds of knowledgej, and becoming accustomed to our new en- vironment. After clearing away the forests we spent most of our time cultivating our crops, but we found time to annoy the teachers and to take part in school ac- tivities. Members of the class took active part in football-some making the varsity squad. September 3, 1928 we returned to Derry Township a more capable and confi- dent group. We organized and elected Irwin Thomas, President, and Miss Mar- garet Allshouse, Class Adviser. During the second semester our president de- serted us, and James Shestik was elected to take up the duties of president. The members of the class have taken a more active part in school activities, and through the class spirit it is evident that the aim of the class as a whole is to herald the name of Derry Township far and wide. 26
