CLASS HISTORY In the fall of 1925 nine of our present thirty-two, with others, went to the first and second grade room in the old school building to begin our school career. For some of us it seemed as if we were going away for a long stay. After a few weeks we found some enjoying being sent out in the hall for being naughty, so that they might play hide and go seek around the coat-racks, some liked to come back a little tardy after lunch, and stay outside and play until time for dismissal; others imagined they were sick and got to go home and were also sent back the same afternoon, and others made believe they had the earache so that they might get to sit beside the radiator. At the beginning of our third year we were sent to a little school building behind the old one, so that they might build us a new one After a year and a half we were invited to enter that grand structure from which we now graduate. It was only the previous year that we were given the privilege of riding to school in special school busses. We have since noticed the increase in size and number, not forgetting the change in drivers. During our first eight years we had twelve teachers, forty-six different members, and were assembled in seven different home rooms. It was quite an experience for us to change classes when the bells rang with the High School during our seventh and eighth years, to have such few subjects, several teachers, and a number of classrooms. We then thought we were just about it , when along came Our first year of High School, which meant being looked upon as “Green Freshmen” by our upperclassmen. We really didn't think we were green but the Seniors said: We stood upon the staircase And gazed far down the hall, We saw a bunch of green stuff. Arranged along the wall. We thought twas waving grass, But lo! it moved! it was On its way upstairs, it was The Freshmen Class!” Thirty-nine Freshies, Yes sir! and all ready for work assembled inRoom311, which was to be our home room. Although we didn't like to be all by ourselves we had many good times. Mr. Young helped us through the first year with John Henry Alleman, Gladys Marks, Merit Smith, and Ardis Lester on the cabinet to help him. During the year we planned for our future needs in High School. Near the end of our Freshman year, some of our number were privileged to accompany the Orchestra on its trip to Ottawa, Kansas, where it ranked second in the National Contest for Class C orchestras We adjourned our school year in May to be called again in September. Next September we came back for our second High School year with a few less in number. This time we thought we would be able to meet in the large assembly with our upperclassmen only to be chased right out into our old meeting place—311; we really didn’t like it so well but later we began to be like ourselves again. This year we chose Mr. Rich for our leader with Ramon Culbertson, John Henry Alleman, Robert Dennis, and Sylvan Waldfogel as sub-leaders We planned many good times and although the depression was rather bad we had quite a prosperous year when we adjourned for our summer vacation. When we assembled for our third year we really were ready to be takr-n into the large assembly with the upperclassmen. This time Mr Laskin was our advisor, with Ramon Culbertson, Jeane Owens, Donelda Hale, and Delmar Crisp the officers We had many important entertainments to plan this year First came our play, You're Telling Me, enacted by members of the class. We thought it a grand success and it put a little money into our treasury. Then came our Junior-Senior Banquet. Oh my! well it was just good-bye money, but we really had a grand time planning for it, and a lovely time at the banquet (at least we thought so). Then we saw our upperclassmen promoted and handed their diplomas; and now we are ready to take their places in the grand affair. We assembled again in September for the fourth and last time. We had no one higher In the assembly to look up to—we had reached the top of our High School career and now we are getting ready to be promoted. This time, Mr Rich was our sponsor again with Jeane Owens, Dale Rains-berger, Donelda Hale, and Sylvan Waldfogel the class officers. During the first of our senior year we planned to publish a yearbook, entitled the Tattler Everyone had his large or small part to do in publishing this book. In this undertaking our Class Advisor played the major part with his untiring efforts to make it a success. Now thirty-two members are ready to leave for the last time. There have also been many students whose friendships we have been permitted to enjoy during our school career, who are not with us now. We, the Senior Class of 37, wish all the following classes the best of luck in keeping the fine school spirit and cooperation the previous classes and the class of 37 have enjoyed. And with our best wishes, we take this opportunity to pass our motto on to our underclassmen— NOT FOR SCHOOL, BUT FOR LIFE WE LEARN. Ardis Lester Mara Nell Morr 2 17
