Our Future Faint and far, faint and far, 'Neath sunny heaven and evening star, A voice will come to Memory’s ear, Silvery soft, infinitely clear. Bringing thoughts half hitter yet strangely sweet, A voice making memory’s picture complete, “The class of ’30, maiden and youth, What will they give from their store of truth? “Thoughts that reach to God's stern measure Or a reckless race for Today’s fleet pleasure? But the knowledge is with me—I feel full strong Praise for great deeds to that class will belong. Mary Powell, ’30 HALARY SAWICKI President, Second Semester

((otie (juniors' jolden cBook (9xij summer’s afternoon as I lay dreamily in my hammock, I beheld a speck of gold in the sky. Soon the dot became larger and gradually took the shape of a golden airplane, shining gloriously in the bright sunlight. It dazzled me as it swooped lower and lower and 1 was forced to close my eyes. I opened my eyes, discovered a golden book, left, apparently, by the mysterious airplane. Idly I turned the first few pages until 1 came to the picture of a football with photographs of boys’ faces grouped around it. Surely 1 ought to know them. Why, yes! there was Sawicki, captain-elect; Morris, Chantos, Elliot, Grubb, Warren, Williams and Chapman. All the junior letter men! Eagerly I turned the next page to meet more familiar faces, those of Homer Morris and Halary Sawicki, class presidents, and Ruby Ramsey, editor of the largest Purple and White that Georgetown High School has ever published. There was William Moore, who always makes the highest grades among the boys. In great excitement I turned another leaf and read the program of “Adam and Eva” directed by Miss Mack with Howard Emory, Wayne Henry, and Bernice Houghton as leading characters. With a feeling of regret 1 found that there were only a few more pages in that wonderful golden book. They were devoted to the F.L.H. Club, the Athenian Literary society. and the Science club in all of which the class of 1930 had played an active part. HOMER MORRIS BERNICE HOUGHTON, ’30. President, First Semester

Being a very lovable kitten everyone took to her, telling her all she wished to know about the various classes in school. One of the first persons she encountered was Kenneth Crum. Walking up to him, she said, “Who are you? What is your business here?” “Oh! I'm president of the sophomore class.” “Then, pray tell me something of your class.” Kenneth being very proud of his class began to rave. The history went something like this: “One fine morning the present sophomore class entered high school. Everything was new to them, but finally they became accustomed to the situation. The class in the freshman year was represented in football, won the inter-class basketball tourney, and received honorable mention in the track meet. There were several participants in the declamation contest and in semi-chorus. “This year we have several “G” men in football, as well as in basketball and track. We are also to be represented in the reading contests. “Both years have been a success and we are looking forward to the time when we shall be upperclassmen.” “Thank you very much,” said the kitten, “I think you must have a wonderful class.” KENNETH CRUM President, F.rst Semester WlXXIFRED BI RD, ’31.
