page eight is 34 CANNON-AID SENIOR CLASS HISTORY HE students of the freshman class who entered Gettysburg High School in 1930, entered full of pep, enthusiasm, and plans. Little did these newcomers know of the hardships that were to follow, of the 108 that entered only 77 were able to stand the strain. This class did not allow its activities to remain dormant until the senior year, but instead made a name for itself while the members were still freshmen. The 1934 class inaugurated the custom of a freshmen party. Following this highly successful affair its parties through all four years were enjoyed by the class and its friends. The third year at high school brought forth the junior play which proved that the school did not have to rely on the Seniors for dramatic ability. This play, Climbing Roses , was well presented by a capable cast including Robert Williams, Kathryn Gitt, Merville Zinn, Ted Thomas, Betty Swope, Eleanor Hershey, Vida Rebert, Henry Roth, Keith Fischer, Helen Benson and Isabelle Beal. Not only were members of the class of '34 making themselves known in dramatic activi- ties but they were also becoming active in athletics, in scholastic tests, and in the journalistic Held as they assumed responsibility for the publication of the school paper. The social activities of the Senior year began with the Hallowe'en Dance. In an atmosphere of spooks and goblins the students danced to the melodious strains of Paul Ecker and his Checkers. Time flies-but its progress was as slow as freshmen going to classes when compared with the speed with which the senior teams sold magazine subscriptions. It was a neck and neck race until the last day when Charlie Abell's team nosed out Clarence Kitzmiller's to win the Crowell Publishing Derby and free plates of ice cream. The outstanding event in high school dramatic circles is the Senior Play. 'flt Pays to Advertise found many of the class behind the footlights. Clarence Kitzmiller and Charles Abell again captained the two teams of ticket sellers. Included in the accomplishments of the Seniors is the ability to dance, live, laugh, love and dance some more. The Senior Prom will offer splendid opportunity for the class to entertain alumni and friends at a spring dance. High school days and high school plays and sorrows will be only a memory now that the plans for a two day trip to Washington are about to be realized. Plans for the commencement pageant are now under way. The theme will be centered around Education in Pennsylvania. And thus the Seniors part, sadly, to go their respective ways, well pleased with their four years of high school.
