MARQQN HAROLD HAM1zxs'rER WEs1.EY Frsmak MARGARET CARBAUGH I' :re-Prrrzzient Prerzdfnt Secretary SENIOR CLASS HISTORY H They Can Who Think They Cann-and they did! Since their entrance in September of 1921, as the largest class ever before enrolled, their enthusiasm for doing and succeeding has been immeasurable. They felt the wonder of their creative ability at an early stage and organized as Freshmen, in November, 1921. They showed their generosity in contributing to the Near East and Jewish Relief funds. The beginning of their Sophomore year brought to light new forms of conquest. They were again successful in athletics, the boys carried the interclass track meet and the girls the baseball tournament. They proved their policy of doing by presenting a group of two Sophomore class plays, The Twig O' Thorn , and Neighbors . This was the first time any Sophomore group had attempted a play as a class. Their Sophomore float entered in the Ansonia Homecoming Parade on Thanksgiving Day won the first prize. VVith the cooperation of the class of ,24 they succeeded in bringing about the recurrence of school dances. Herbie', Hill came into the limelight by being made captain of both football and basketball teams of 1925. The dramatic instinct was even more pronounced in their third year and they presented on May zo, the melodrama, The Seven Keys to Baldpaten. On May 29, relaxation from labor was considered necessary and the class of 725 presented their Junior Prom and later a picnic at Crystal Lake. After three years which seemed to be filled with problems which could not be solved they attained their goal-the rank of Senior. They began brilliantly by electing Wesley Fisher, President, Harold Hamiester, Vice-President, and Nfargaret Carbaugh, Secretary. The Senior Girls claimed the precedent of or- ganizing the first Senior Girls, Club and establishing a more friendly relation- ship between Seniors. Turn to the Right , the class play, presented on December 4th and 5th, exhibited the ever-prevalent dramatic powers of the class and Beau Brummel, a movie, their business-like ability to fill the treasury. .At the parting of the ways they are secure in the knowledge of the invaluable experience gained They see now the insignificance of the obstacles, over which they have fretted They will FCJOICC in the creative power, this power of will attained and give r1se to nobler loftier, and more sincere aspirations more worthy of endurance and fulfillment LEONA KINANE 25 i V . . . . . .
