THE PAST . . IS FULL OF SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The years slip through my hands U e bright jewels And lie prone in the dust at my feet. These last four I chronicle needlessly— Who of you could lose mem’ries so sweet? In the year one thousand, nine hundred and thirty-three, one hundred and eighty-five boys and girls marched solemnly up three flights of stairs to find their seats in the study hall that was to he their home for nine months. The freshmen held their first meeting in that same study hall and elected Raymond Trubey as president, John Bair as vice-president, Margery English as secretary, and Dane McVay as historian. The year passed quickly in learning new responsibilities, new habits, and new outlooks. Courage came with the second year and the Sophomore class ventured two parties. The first took place at “The Anchorage” (gym), a waterfront nightclub, where entertainment was provided for all by dance band, card tables, and floor show. A ‘round-the-world’ steamer (still the gym) was the scene of the second party. The voyagers played cards and danced on the deck between glimpses of foreign entertainers at various stops during the evening. During this year of nautical ideas, Evelyn Warther was captain; Jim Reeves, first mate; and Betty Braun, steward. Sophomores became Juniors, who chose Don Everett to be their chief executive; Billy Kraus, his assistant; Margaret Huff, secretary; Jim Reeves, treasurer; and Evelyn Warther, Junior-Editor. All attention was centered on the prom for which money was raised by a matinee dance. When the gala event finally arrived, happy Juniors and Seniors danced at Brightwood made gay by sheet music and paper notes. Another year has passed since then and the class of ’37 are Seniors ready to be graduated into a new phase of their education. For this year buzzing with work and play the Seniors elected Junior Youngen, president; Billy Kraus, vice-president; Martha Lind, secretary; and Margaret Huff, treasurer. In years to com enymphs of thought will linger ... of football games on frosty days, of tournaments at Dennison, of pep rallies, band concerts, dinners, classes, parties, hikes ... of all of life, bold, carefree, ignorant, that fills four years at Dover High. —Dane McVay, ’37, Historian.
