In our Junior year several mem- bers of our class first came before the public by presenting the play, Her Emergency Family. Due to the extremely good talent of the par- ticipants, and -the coaching and spon- soring by Miss Burget and Mr. Nelson the play was a dramatic success. From 'the proceeds of the play we were able to entertain the Seniors elaborately at the Junior and Senior Reception. Many o-f our classmates took part in the operetfta, Love Pirates of Hawaii , given in our Junior year and Tune In , given in the Senior year. The boys of our class have played an important part in contrifbuting to- ward the bulwark of players during our Senior High ,School career. Our class as well as the whole high school are proud of Joe Manion, one of our class mates, who, was .awarded the Gimbel prize at the County Tourna- ment olf 1937. There are many outstanding events in the Senior year which we shall always re-member: March 27, Alumni Banquetg April 6, Senior class play, April 16, Junior and Senior Recep- tiolng April 18, Bac-calaureatte ser- vices: and April 23, Commencement exercises. We wish to take 'this opportunity to 'thank our 'teachers for their pa- tience and help during our school years. We are very grateful to Mr. Nelson who has been our sponsor in both the Junior and Senior years. Here we go, no-t staring up the steps of opportunity, but stepping up the stairs. --Hilda Gutwein, Wilma Koebcke. SENIOR CLASS POEM Farewell As we embark on the sea of life, V'e pause for a little while- Heants sad with the load of strife To think of the past with a smile? II To think of our teachers so patient and kind, 0 whom we are indebted so, We leave to them the best we can find, A record they'll be proud to show. III We have kept our records stainless, We have tr.ied to be .honest and true, And we've held aloft our colors, The loyal white and blue. IV We will no-t cease with th-e goal we've attained But with will to do and strength to fulfill, We will work until honor and fame's ascertained, And when that goal is reached, we will strive upward still. V To our teachers and comrades we say adieu, And thanks for the encouragement giveng Again we leave this message to you- Farewell , from the class of '37, Ruth Gutwein, June Morgan, Margaret Wolf. 1937 Us
