I also discov- ered William Sleutel, the owner of a large rubber plantation. Claude Ver Duin is the owner of a large fish tug. Owen Davis, first mate, has beencourt- martialed for sleeping at his post. Ralph Shirkey, who was always up in the air when we knew him at school, is an aviator. He intends to demonstrate the principle that when you go up in the air you always come down in some way. - Clarence Burr, married to Jacqueline Potter, is now a real estate man, and has already sold several beautiful model homes to bridal couples. I found Vera Correll and that Holland fellow together, which was no surprise. Marvin Beekman and Clarence Bewalda, two prominent contractors, have just finished build'- ing a home for ill-treated school teachers, and Katheryn Wiersema, Alma Ward, Dorothy Irene Hansen, and Viola Waidelich are the most influential inmates. The shield again became dim and blurred. I was discouraged, thinking that perhaps I could not learn anything more about my classmates. I was about to give up in despair when the mist cleared away and there before my eyes was a courtroom. ' Herman Shafsma is a lawyer of great renown. He is known to have made only one blunder during his life as a lawyer. One day in his plea to the jury he said, Gentlemen of the jury. Twenty-four hogs have been stolen from Eleanor Vander Noot's chicken farm-twice the number in the jury box. The most infuriated jurymen were Walter Moll, a thriving farmer, and john Boomgaard, city manager. judge Andrew Van Hoef charged Herman with contempt of court. Lydia Secory and Sallie Buckley are two women barbers. They attribute their success to pluck, pluck, pluck. Miriam Vink is somewhat of a phrenologist for she examines the head of every person who has her hair bobbed to see whether or not she is eligible for the Dumb-bells union. ' Dick Gringhuis is president of the National Association of Umbrella Manufacturers. I also found out that Dick has told his quartet composed of Elizabeth Dake, Arlintha Gorham, Nina Hill, and Edith Valkema to look for a new job, for he had become enraged when they sang UIt AinIt Gonna Rain No More? Leo Mahan and Boyd McCarthy are owners of a large factory which makes baby carriages. They have no trouble in selling their goods for everyone pushes their product. For the third time the shield became blank, but I did not give up hope, for lffore it had renewed its magic power. I waited some time before it again brightened, and then I saw a theatre. It is owned by Jeanette Fisher and William Kasperson. Walter Swier takes the tickets, while Alice Clark acts as an usher. An extra bill for the night was played by the professional actresses, Dorothy Mae Hanson, Beatrice Brinkert, and Elizabeth Shoemaker. Clarissa Poel and Anona Dugas are mistresses of costumes. Raymond Fisher is the oliicial curtain puller, and Carroll Holcomb, the stage manager. Harold Larson and Robert Smith are the biggest hits of the season in the opera world, singing the watch song in the opera Big Ben. Steven Sluka and Henry Dirkse are the ofiicial coaches of the HPrince of Wales Polo team. One of their other duties is to teach the members of the British ministry how to play marbles. Again the shield slowly darkened, but I no longer cared for I had found out what my former classmates were doing. However, some day again I hope to try the shield's magic power, for it will undoubtedly hold more in the future. -.lames Hfiegerink. J' f26l

We displayed our athletic ability by placing Spiess on the football squad and Cornelia Van Zylen on the girls' basketball team. We were also represented in the operetta by Shirley Botrje.

It was a great success-both dramatically and financially. Soon after the play was given, our spirits were dampened when we learned that Miss Reed, our patroness, had been called away and at the beginning of the second semester we chose Miss Flora Quigley to assist Mr. Richards in guiding us to the completion of our third year. We were the backbone of our athletic teams, placing Pippel, Pellegrom, Spiess, M. Elliott, and Dykhuis on the football team. Van Zylen, Rue, Borchers, and Vanden Berg represented us in girls' basketball. We placed Krause, Den Herder, Pellegrom, Pippel, and M. Elliott on our State Championship Basketball quintet. Bruce Betts, Shirley Bottje, and Dorathea VVorsfold played important roles in the operetta, HMiss Cherry Blossom. Lloyd Wilson and Kerby Sanders represented us in the Declamation Contest. Late in the year we gave a send-05 to the honorable Seniors, in the form of a huge recep- tion. It was the social success of the year. Now we are looking ahead to that time next fall, when we shall begin our last and greatest year as Seniors of dear old Grand Haven High. -Richard Spiess. 1. .Pg 57? Q55 , s i . S S is N is S p l28l
