THE PIONEER wt IW Patsy Tester, the local dog catcher, caught thirty-six dogs and eighteen cats during the month of llflay. ' ' Virginia VVetter usurped the place of Gertrude Ederle when she swam the dis- tance between San Francisco and Hawaii within a month. Rita Wetter, the long distance telephone operator, states that she has turned down nineteen telephone proposals in two weeks. Dorothy VVilson runs a school of elocution in Fort Lee. lN'1ildredAYach, formerly an active member of the S. P. C. A., was disowned by the organization because of her merciless treatment of her household pets. Hector Zucchino was recently promoted from brakeman to subway guard. XVith a sigh I turned to leave the office. VVhat revelations time can effect! Far different from the listed achievement had been the aspirations of that group of classmates I had known thirty years ago. Then with a rumble and a roar the building fell about my bent shoulders. Awaking, I found myself staring at laughing classmates, one of whom was pounding my back while an exasperated teache' was awaiting an answer to her question. 4 t CLASS HISTORY N September 9, 1927, a startled group assembled in the corridors of Fort Lee High School. After much serious thinking, the faculty decided that we were the most intellectual students and the best athletes ever to enter our school. To verify this complimentary statement we, as Sophomores, spent most of our spare time practicing baseball and basketball in our new gymnasium. Backed by two solid years of experience in high school life, we entered our third year determined to surpass our former record and to overcome any obstacles that might hinder us. Football, a new sport, increased our enjoyment and filled our spare time. We concluded our social activities of 1930 with a prom for the depart- ing Seniors. We, a large part of our original group, realized one of our fondest desires of being regularly ordained as Seniors in the fall of 1930. In April another delight was experienced by some of us when we became charter members of the new Nation- al Honor Society. In the spring we were not surprised when our debating team easily defeated its opponents and we had the privilege of reading our numerals on the cup. Our high school days will soon be ended, but may we never forget our good times together nor the thoughts instilled in our minds by our teachers. 24 yy..-
