SENIOR BOOSTER 23 WILL RACHEL COHEN We, the June ' 32 class of Manual Training High School, in making ' our last will and testa- ment, do leave to our heirs and their assigns forever the following: To the next June class, we leave our eminent principal and guiding sponsors. Also, we turn over to it a specified green hammer to be found in the left top drawer of the desk when not employed hut which, if our heirs have taken after us, will likely more often be in use. Further use of this will he more clearly ex- plained in roll call by the honorable sponsors. To those sophomores or underclassmen who find that there are no desks available that suit them in their classrooms, we leave the seats in the office which have been made comfortable through much usage. To those who enjoy gymnastics and find the gym inconvenient and crowded, we cheerfully dedicate the spacious halls of our school, but on the condition that they must confine them- selves to mere walking or skipping. If hand- springs or other such feats are undertaken, the executors of this will will be forced to with- draw the aforesaid privilege. To those studiously inclined, we dedicate the library filled with interesting volumes of Shakespeare and Dickens. To the playful f resides, we give and bequeath the smooth long banisters of our manv flights of stairs to take the place of our time honored elevator. To the athletes, we bequeath our basketball and football teams and also a number of good men to lake the place of those who are leaving. We give and bequeath to those interested in the dramatical part of our school life, a group of workers to work backstage as well as the actors, with that perseverance and quality of labor that goes to make up an immensely sue cessful class play. To the worthy students who work hard the fourth or fifth periods of their daily routine and are in need of rest and amusement, we leave those long auditoriums. We also insert here the hope that one will eventually come along which will last the entire day. Being the bicentennial class, we take the pleasure of placing George Washington in trust for one hundred years, so thai the gradu- ating class at that lime may enjoy his tri-cen- tennial celebration and the numerous lectures and talks that we have endured. To those pupils who, in their anxiety to get to school, have forgotten to eat breakfast, we leave the Brown Giants, to be eaten either in the classrooms I under cover) or in the halls. And lastly we leave, to all. the friendliness, good will, and cheerfulness that has char- acterized our class in its years here in this school. CLASS HISTORY Concluded from page 19 mony, written by Rachel Cohen, we bequeathed to all the undergraduates the happiness of our four years in Manual. We also decided that another symbol was necessary, so, as we were the George Washing- ton bicentennial class, we left what we thought would be the most fitting gift. Fifty dollars was sent to the Washington foundation to aid in restoring as a national shrine Washington ' s birthplace at Battle Creek. Virginia. With the remaining money, we bought a bronze plaque which we presented to the school. The plaque contains a head of Washington in has relief and also his favorite motto, Nothing but harmony, honest, industry and frugality are necessary to make us a greal and happy people. And now our commencement is in sight. We are still marching along the road to knowl- edge. We are Not to the Top but Climbing. CLASS FLAY Concluded from page 21 Sewing .
