You remember, don't you, being a little disappointed in those seniors, the ones on the platform that hopped around with meaningless gestures, trying to raise a little enthusiasm in that overawed bunch of children? The Cheerleaders they called them, it made us feel from that day forward that after all there wasn't so much to being seniors, if they were all cheerleaders-but then, we didn't know. What a certain crowd remembers most of that freshman day was ordering, in rather little tones, our first soda, out by ourselves without papa, mama, or older sister to preside. We ordered them to celebrate. Youth is ever the optimist! ' We found ourselves housed in the Annex, going at odd hours, mixing up meals at home, and feeling like L'They're Changing Guard at Buckingham Palace when we passed the morning shift on their way out. A year and a half of it there saw changes in classes and friends and ideas of school life. It also saw a slight change in the interior decorating, for by Easter vacation the paper Christmas wreaths had been removed from the classroom doors. That's the way things went in the annex, we were children in a private school and we had a gay time of it. .S if 0,0 7+ The finishing of new high schools relieved the crowded conditions and, after we had served our time in the a11nex, we moved over to the main building to start our real high school career. It came far closer to us-the great organization that is the school, its various committees and clubs, its activities and athletic interests. We became an organ- ized class after a term in the main building. We felt then just a little like being in things. We had our first meeting, Miss Price presiding fon the deskj, in 107, and were instilled with the grave responsibility of choosing our President. The responsibility may have been quite grave and serious, but the meeting, I'm afraid, wasnit. Our choice did not suffer from this fact, however, for we have held to our first impression and retained our first and only girl through the history of the class. It lent great distinction to us as a class to be able to refer to our presi- dent. Another title that came to mean much to us, far more than a title, was that of adviser. Kings and Emperors will have their royal councillors and the Class of 1930, as it came to the throne, was given advisers that have endeared Twenty-one

Mrs. Tyson and Mr. Rothermel entered into our lives as a part of us from the first day of organization. This organization came late in the term and there was no ' time nor precedent for a D Class party. - - The advisers were ready for the class in the fall, to 'ii' create enthusiasm for class events during the year. We needed the enthusiasm, for classes have the habit of falling into a complete state of lethargy over the summer.

Do you remember seeing, or rather hearing, the girls in the hall with the 'csizersw jangling in their hands? They sounded like The Keeper of the Keys, or a matron in a prison house. 'After many orders taken with karat marked 666.75 and price marked 'Lgreen gold, they were all assembled, the money counted and piled-and we waited those endless weeks for rings. We had football games to follow and chlb activities to absorb us really for the first time in our C term. Our president called meetings., and the treasurer, Virginia Lowe, dug hard, with her big black book in one hand and a pencil in the other, to separate us from our clinging twenty cents on certain mornings of the week. Our first party had to be planned for. It was to be a bigger and more unusual affair than had ever been given 0 ' ' ' ' : MD' I -ff if before by a C Class. Harry Leber and Eva Dahl had charge of the party committee and a weekly dancing class was K1 I organized to insure the affair against wall supports. January 10tl1 was the date set for it, and I cannot remember going to a school party that went off with more of a bang! The orchestra and entertain- ment were splendid and I have never seen, eve11 in their wildest moments, students so reluctant to leave the school. Mrs. Tyson's absence during this term was a source of great regret to the girls., but they found in Miss Freehafer someone very close to Mrs. Tyson-H with Mrs. Tyson's own spirit. We felt that during the C term we were getting well started toward our final term, and that, as a class, we were coming closer in our workings together. Although Sara is at Randolph-Macon College in Virginia, she is with us in thought. She has been a very active mem- ber of our class, being the historian and former secretary. We wish here to ac- knowledge our appreciation of what she has done. Sarais literary talent is quite evident in her Class History. We give her our sincere friendship and best wishes for the future. 7i'ZCCl1fj'-fTx'0
