The class turned out in force and elected the follow- ,rl rt-IP Y ing officers to pilot us through the ensuing term: 1' f IU President-Harry Leber ' - 1 Vice-President-Dick Wagner H Secretary-Dick Hoober '11 Treasurer-John Jenny l What a term that turned out to be! The class decided to be original 'Q and to break away from the custom set by the preceding classes, that of hiring ' an orchestra for our social functions, so a class orchestra I was started under the able leadership of J ack Kelman. -2 Our Class Orchestra was not our only step forward. A v - dancing class, started under the supervision of Cecilia Kuret- sky and Chester Kowalczyk, proved to be a great success, and helped a lot in bringing the class closer together. The class party was held in the early part of December, and although the fellows proved a bit shy at first, they soon lost their diiiidence and danced all afternoon to the syncopating melodies sup- plied by our orchestra. Every one felt amply repaid for the twenty-five cents expended, and much praise was given to the party committee, which consisted of the executive council of the class. 1 We had received our rings by this time and, in a superior frame of mind, we entered our last, long-looked-forward-to year. We now were high and mighty SENIORS. Twenty-fifve

Needless to say, .All 'ly we welcomed it. ill! Again summer was over and we settled down to make -ffl' H a name for ourselves in school life. The social life of the l l school began to interest a great number of the class and soon our fellows were i playing an active part in some of the clubs. Thanksgiving arrived shortly with its turkey and pump- kin pie and a two-day vacation. Shortly after this the big social event of the year was given, the senior play of the class of January '23. though we all knew deep in our hearts that it was as nothing compared to what our senior play would be. The Christmas holidays were with us before we noticed it, and we returned to school from our ten-day vacation, determined to finish our sophomore year brilliantly. Some did and some didn't, but the majority of the class successfully passed through their final tests. We were upper-classmen! Q4 It was well attended and commented on by our class, l v' A J UN IORS We were now starting our junior year and at the beginning of the term we faced class organization. We settled down to business at once and, with the aid of our senators and the kind help of Dr. Seely we secured the two best advisers in the school, Mr. Rothermel and Mrs. Tyson. A class meeting was held a short time later and the election of oliicers for the D term took place, the results of the election being: President-Harry Leber Vice-President-Dick Wagner Secretary-Richard Hoober Treasurer-J oe F ortunato Uur class treasurer began collecting dues immediately after organization and wl1e11 this was written another poor boy was still collecting. Our studies and activities again took up most of our . . . . -.s spare time and, w1tl1 a holiday here and there, we came 4 .' fl again to our summer vacation.
