VVhat a party, what eats, what ghosts, and what a timel This year our debating team was composed mainly of seniors. Howard Brady, Anna Burkhard, VValter Smoker, Rosemary Harper, Lois Porter, ciC01'gC Luke, john Letherman, and Lucille Lehman have all worked faithfully to make the team a success. ln athletics not many of our boys took party however one, Albert Gill. was in baseball, football and basketball. This year the senior boys won the interclass tourney. During their high school career, the following girls played on the Girls' Baskc-tl'all Teamg Gretchen Clason, Grace Clason, Elizabeth Osborne and Edythe Wissi11ge1'. - Dear Classmates, our history as a class must cease but as we now leave our dear, old Halma materl' we shall always remember the happy hours we spent there and the good will with which we worked together. It is said that history is repeated but We cannot believe that another four years, such as the Class of '24, has just completed, can ever be spent in G. H. S. -fLucile Lehman. Class Poem Yve come at last to a turn in the road, VVhere we must choose our way. Our happy high school days are past, As we realize today. A rainbow was our school life, NVith various joys combinedg liach day held many things in storeg VVho sought could always Hnd. And thus today we think of the past- VVe think of the future toog VVe want to put our heart and soul ln the life work we must do. Farewell to Goshen High School- Farewell to the Crimson and VVhite- Good-bye to those happy school days, For now theylre taking flight. Ford memories long will linger, Of the Purple and the Gold.

In October, 1920, we deemed it necessary to have a meeting. Principal VV. H. VVheeler, well remembered by many. gave us a talk on parliamentary rules, and class spirit. After a great deal of excite- ment we elected these officers: Ellsworth Garman, president, jane Richardson, vice president, Eloyse Stage, secretary, Howard Brady, treasurer. VVe selected purple and gold as our class colors. ' VVe had the time of the year at our party, in Room IO, of the old high school building. We were commended by the faculty for the orderly way in which it was given. About the same time we gave, before the assembly, a play entitled The Photo Shopf' This met with great success. As the days sped by we came to the end of the school year. We were considered a yery energetic bunch, and planned to do much in G. H. S. during the coming three years. VVe were now Sophomores and were eager to get back to school and assume new responsibilities. A meeting was soon called. Our officers of the previous year had done so well that they were re-elected with the exception that George Luke became our vice-president. ' Our activities for this year were few but very successful. The feature party was at the home of Catherine Evans. Innumerable chicken sandwiches vanished that night. VVhen it was our turn to perform before the assembly, we gave a varied program under the leadership of hfiss Vanderveer, and never can we forget the Bum Army with the big, bass drum, and Howard Brady,s song, I Might. Again the school year was at an end and we had completed one half of our high school course. In the fall of 1923 we entered high school as Upperclassmen. Un September 15, we held our first junior meeting, and chose lVIiss Vanderveer and hir. Robert YVeaver as class sponsors. Later we elected the following officers: president, Ellsworth Garmang vice-president, Rosemary Harper, secretary, Anna Burkhardg treasurer, Lucille Lehman, :iergeants-at-arms, Lois Todd and Joe Weddel. For class flower we chose the iris, and for our motto, Not finished, just begunf' This year we became more prominent in school activities. On Saturday, December 9, we held a very successful pastry sale at the Goshen Gas Qfhce. All the loyal -juniors donated pastries of all kilids and sizes. During the football season we sold tags for the games, and we feel sure this helped our football squad to win so many games. Our class had charge of the concessions at the County Tournament. VVC surely worked hard that day, especially our president who was the chief. The really big event of the year was the junior Carnival on May 11. How we worked and racked our brains for ideas! The main attractions were f'Fatima's Tentf' 'fThe Rogues' Galleryf, and The lXIagician,s Booth H It seems that l can still hear the strains of the banjo and tambourine as they played for Fatima. The Rogues, Gallery , attempted to portray the characteristics of our faculty. At the ll'Iagician's Boothfl a crystal gazer from the East told the fortunes of those people who came to her tent. Two social functions were given at the close of the year, a skating party at l3losser's park, and the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom, a night that will always be remembered by both classes. Thus ended our thi1'd year, and our last in the old high school. -m cnznson m 1 29
