5 TI-IE FR,ANCILLIAN i SENIOR CLASS HISTORY WE ARE about to end -our long, happy school career which began in the year 1925. Enrolled in our iirsft grade and under the supervis- ion of Miss Bessie Rhinehart were the following: Jack Alkire, Wilhite Foster, Francis Franks, Harvey Gut- wein, James Hamfblin, Keith Kruger, James Rund, Quentin Sm.ith, Ralph Steffel, Catherine Anliker, Grace Bie- swanger, Maxine Burson, Ro-se Camp- bell, Hazel Foust, Hilda Gutwein, Ruth Gutwein, Dorothy Jentz, Lenora Kelley, Maru Reish, Lucille Schlatter, Dorothy Severns, Caroline Street, and Ruth Swing. In years to come the following class mates have moved away or in some way have left our class: Jack Alkire, Francis Franks, Harvey Gut- wein, James Rund, Quentin Smith, Catherine Anliker, Grace Beiswanger, Rose Campbell, Hazel Foust, Caroline Street and Ruth Swin-gg Maxine Bur- son and Keith Kruger, deceased. There has also been many new- comers -to our class to fill the place of those who have left us. In our class that will graduate this spring wehiind the following: Joe Manion, president, Perry Long, vice-president, Wilma Koebcke, secretary, Mardella Eide, treasurer, Lucille Schlatter, re- porter, Maru Reish, Lenora Kelley, lloris Kopka, Jalmes Hamlblin, Ruth Gubwein, Odetta Kesler, Patricia Kearney, Dorothy Severns, June ggorgan, John Wuethrich, Jr., Hilda utweln, Alice Hill, Heral-d Bailey, Ralph Koebcke, Keith Jackson, Mar- garet Wolf, Roy Osburn, John Han- cock, Florence Kruger, Glendoris Tillett, Ralph Steffel, and Wilhite Eoster. 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

THE FRANCILLIAN - SENIOR CLASS VVILL FINISHED at last! We feel over- joyed, but then, on second thought, a little sad. Laying all sentimental feelings aside, we want to get d-own to the main purpose of this choice document. A Her-e's to our kind faculty Who patiently convey To us all knowledge we acquire In our hapfpy, carefree way- We, without a doubt, the most studious, staple, steadfast, steady, stately, stated, staunch stand-patters of F. H. S., as well as the most mas-terful, miraculous, modernized, mindful multitude that has or ever will graduate from this superior or- ganization, h-ereby, unwillingly and without due reason acknowledge our generous bequeathals to the unscru- pulous, undescribable, unspeakable, unwiel-dy, unwitting, upstarts of the Junior Class who are nothing but duly dull, dumb duffers, dudes and ducklings ranking first among the dummies of the ldumbells. May you slipshod sleuthhounds profit greatly by our miscellaneous attempts to help your brainless brainstorms. Thanks, Mr. Sharp, for your faith- ful guidance. We leave to you the fine s-tudenlt body and our sincere hopes for as successful a year 37-38 as was 36-37. To our energetic sponsor, Mr. Nel- son, we leave tbushels of thanks for help and worthwhile advice he so willingly gave us. Also for this chem- istry teacher, our class has decided to leave a can of imported oxide of some sort or other. You'll receive this C. O. D., Mr. Nelson. To our coach, Mr. Alfred Himelick, we leave a search light to aid in lighting the alley while he searches for his wandering basket ball team. To Mr. Port, we leave a telescope so he may see w.ho really is whisper- ing in his assemblies. Mis.s Riggs, we leave the exclusive right to correct anyone of your class at a moments notice. We can faintly hear from typing room. To Mr. Shull, we leave an energetic group of band members who faith- fully promise to eat candy at the right place and at the right time. To Miss Low, we leave a studious, ever-ready, noiseless never-to-erase tylping class. This should be encour- aging, Miss Low, you need not repeat announcements. To Mr. Detamore, we're leaving our sincere hopes for a donkey bas- ketball game each year. We know how you enjoyed t-he .las-t one. We also leave thanks for our multiplica- tion tables, you so generously pound- ed into our heads. To Miss Burget, we leave a large roll of free tickets to be used on the new lndianapolis-Gary bus line. Do,n't get excited, Miss Burget, we have arranged for the tickets to be for use in going from Francesville 'to Lafayette. ' For our industrious janitor, Mr. Myers, we're leaving all that expen- sive chewing gum we .bought and then had to discard on account ot teachers' wishes, particularly book- keeping teachers. Keith Jackson said he wasn't sure which desk it was, but one of them has 4 packages of Dentine in the upper left hand mid- dle corner. All Seniors are collecting all their old costumes worn in Mrs. Bess My- ers' room to leave for future enter-I tainment. For some lucky little boy, a certain boy of the Senior class is leaving the prettiest pair .of purple f - -. These are es-pecially adapted for kings. To Mrs. Kopka, we leave the right to drive any car, at any rate, at any time, in any town: also a bottle of Nervine, for laid, Mrs. Kopka-we understand it's excellent for nerves. A butler? Yes sir, yes sir, that's what we're leaving Miss Koster. Why? So sh-e'll have someone to answer those many mysterious, mis- cellaneous knocks on her class-room door. We Seniors have been constructing a paddling machine ,to leave to Miss Bessie. To explain its operation and construction, you sort of have to use your imagination. Remember, Miss Bessie, spare the rod and save the child. To Miss Finnegan, we leave an automatic chair so she may see her entire class without leaving her desk. Roy Osburn, our faithful basket ball student m.anager is set on the idea of leaving a pack of puttees for our notable forward's basket ball playing next year. He calculates that Ray Render used at least one half of our first aid equipment thi-s year on his ever scratched legs. June Morgan leaves her E's and S's to Jack Alkire. Keep up -the good work, Jackie, and you'll no -doubt graduate yet. 1937
