EL DORADO Senior Cllllass Zbistnrp T was on a bright warm day in the early part of May, that we took our examination to see how many could start on the voyage for a better education. The Principal, Miss Carolyn G. Wiker, gave us the test. On this day we met many new friends, but later, to our disappointment, found that they could not all start the voyage, Several months later we could sail if we wished. Soon the summer passed, and in the latter part of August, we started. This was the largest number that had ever embarked, the number being twenty-seven. It took several months to get acquainted with new friends, teachers and studies. After five months, the Freshman Class elected its officers. They were: President, Lyte Kreider, Vice-President, Elmer Zimmermang and Secretary, Victoria Martin. At the end of the year, some failed, despite the easy Science and Latin. In the latter part of August, many of us started to add more mileage to our voyage, but at the beginning of this year, we found that nine had become seasick. They were: Dorothy Whiteside, Mary Denlinger, Thelma Robinson, Viola Fellen- baurn, Mark Brookmyer, Calvin Spence, Aaron Pickel, Richard Herr and Lloyd Diffenbaugh. Even though some had become seasick, several entered dear East Lampeter High School. They were: Edith Reese, Mary Gates and Kathryn Dussinger from Lancaster, and Helen Keller from West Lampeter Vocational School. This year the course was lengthened to four years, and three new teachers composed the faculty. The officers elected were: President, Richard Brubakerg Vice-President, Kathryn Dussingerg and Secretary, Victoria Martin. In the latter part of November, we moved into a larger and more complete ship. This year, in Geometry class, we all felt as if we were getting seasick, but by hard study and perseverance, most of us pulled through. At the end of this year, the following fell overboard: Verna Heller, Gladys Kreider, Aaron Landis, Elvin Ranck and Alice Wolfe. During this summer, we held our class picnic at Rocky Springs, with everyone present. Summer soon slipped past, and we found ourselves navigating our ship upon rt sea of Junior Difhculties. Because the storm was getting stronger, some fell overboard after several months, namely: Mary Gates and Dorothy Chew. The following oflicers were elected for the Junior year: President, Richard Bruhakerg Vice-President, Elmer Zimmermang Secretary, Arlene Weaver, and Treasurer, Lydia Shaffner. We, finding that our funds were low, began to charge class dues. A corn and doggie roast was held in Theisis meadow for our benefit. ln the early part of February, we held a Spelling Bee in the High School Auditorium, which proved a great success. ln April, an elaborate banquet was given to the Seniors and Faculty. When we again boarded our ship after our vacation, we were sorry to find that one had fallen overboard-namely: Kathryn Dussinger. That left fifteen in the class. This year we found two new captains to help guide us through the Senior year- namely: Miss Herr, Millersville and Mr. Mitchell, Lancaster. The officers elected were: President, Elmer Zimmermang Vice-President, Calvin Tshudy, Secretary, Arlene Weaver and Treasurer, Victoria Martin. ln the fall, our class held a doggie roast in Lehrls meadow. On January seventeenth, eighteenth, and twenty-fourth, the Senior Class with the aid of Miss Herr, rendered a play, A'Nothing But The Truthf' Last Fall we had an enjoyable afternoon in the Welsh Mountains. Vife published our EI Doradoii at the end of term. Although we are about to reach Port Graduation and take the heavier burdens which await there, We will not forget the fond memories of dear East Lampeter High School. ARLENE R. WEAVER, '30 Fourteen
