rr rn -Q - IQZI Mid-Year Class History One half of the midfyear class of 1931 enjoyed the privilege of being the last class to spend any of its Freshman year in Fargo High School. Gradf uates of the Agassiz spent their Freshman B semester in Fargo High, returned to Agassiz as 9 A's, and in january, 1928, were back in the already familiar Senior High School. Our Sophomore year was, perhaps, even less eventful than most: a time of warming the benches, attending functions, and learning how it is done. After this preparation our class made its debut at a junior Dance. The custom of holding this party was quickly dying from lack of exercise and under' nourishment when the '31 class successfully revived it. Blind datgsu with the defeated Duluth football players and maliing one inancial end meet the other were the unusual features of this affair. The last scene in the Junior Act was the ,IuniorfSenior Ban' quet and Dance. The outstanding achievement of our 12B semesf ter was thg publishing of a First Class Cynosure Annual in partnership with the 11A's andnunder the leadership of Mrs. Crothers. The whirl of graduation-class play, annual sermon, class day, graduation-and we iinally drop our responsibilities on the succeeding class and enjoy a banquet and dance put on for us.

Gerald Stevens In order to receive the Ingram fortune, Blanche Ingram must marry someone other than Clarence Topping to whom she is engaged. Clarence, who is a lawyer, has 'figured there is nothing in the wording of the will to control the choice of Blanche's second husband. He decides the best way to get control of the fortune is to have Blanche marry some old man who has one foot in the grave and the other on the brink. Blanche and Clarence ask Doctor Gordon Spencer, who has a Sanatorium for Incurables, to help them by having Blanche marry one of the worst patients in the Sanatoriurn. Dr. Spencer sees no harm in it and promises them they may have the worst patient he has. Kate Tanner, a friend of Blanche's and former nurse of Dr. Spencer's doesn't know the true inwardness of this scheme either and tries to persuade Blanche not to go through with it, but Blanche seems determined. In the meanwhile, Tom Burton, a friend of Dr. Spencer's, who is very much in love with Blanche, although they have never met, persuades Judd, a nurse at the Sanatorium, to help him become disguised as the invalid and marry Blanche. Tom is taken to Blanche's cottage at Southhampton under the disguise of an invalid but is found out by Clarence who thinks the old invalid has outlived his usefulness. Blanche is very humiliated and cannot see why Tom should wish to marry her although he tries to persuade her he's in love with her. Kate and Dr. Spencer finally aid Tom in persuading Blanche that Clarence is only after her money and that Tom is the right man. Although Tom is only her temporary husband, Blanche is Tom's permanent wife. l24I ff is -
