For now our boat glides out between The rocl{S that guard the shore Bearing the class of twenty-eight To be a class no more; But looking forward with a smile Of courage, strong and high, To do our best within the mile And never with a sigh. Twenty-eight

A. PODLEWSKI AROLA SCHWARTZ RYDING ❖ Juniors On November 2, 1927, fifty-five juniors assembled in room 27, now labeled D207, to organize as a class. An outline of activities for the year was presented by the class sponsor, Mr. Nieman, which included the Class Play, J-Hop, Senior Banquet, and Bob-Lo trip. As a means to raise money to finance these functions, dancing parties have been given in the gymnasium, after school. The parties were quite successful both financially and socially. The class play, “Patsy,” was given May 4, in the auditorium and every seat was sold a week before the performance. The school and the class are proud of the record this last year. The attendance honor was held by the class the majority of the year. We ranked high in scholar- ship. The junior boys made up one-half of the football squad and will be the nucleus for next year’s squad. With the exception of two men, the basketball squad con- sisted of juniors. Another honor we are proud of is that Dorothea Ryding, a junior, was elected as Fordson High School's Queen of Beauty for the Flower Show.
