CLASS l-IISTCRY ' Three, and for some of us, three and one-half long years have passed since we began at Christian High. In February of l93l about sixty Freshies stepped into Christian High as students for the first time. It would be rather hard perhaps to describe these youngsters. Some were frightened, some less afraid, some timid, some bolder, but none were very bold. But if they were too shy, they lost some of their bashful- ness perhaps with the enthusiastic welcome that was given them by the student body in session room. ln the fall of the year a group of one hundred and nine members was added to the February students to make up one of the largest classes in the school - the class of '34. At the first class meeting, Iohn Steketee was elected president. Mr. Beukema was our sponsor. As a class we were given official welcome at an outing at Garfield Park. Our class meetings were entertaining and unbusinesslike. The year ended with an all-school field-day at Iohn Ball park. When we entered school in the fall of '32, Bill Worst, our former vice- president, received the honor of be- ing class president. Much of our time then, since we were Iuniors, was devoted to the preparations for the Iunior-Senior party. This was given in May of 1933 as a sendoff for the departing Seniors. I24 The following September we ven- tured on our Senior year. Bill Worst received the vote of confidence of the senior class and continued as president. Our last year at Christian High has been crowded with activities among which may be listed the pub- lication of the Memoir, the rendering of the Senior class program, and the organization of the Student Partici- pation Council. This year the senior class decided to give a class program or play. Although the ideaat first met with opposition, we succeeded in carry- ing out the plan. The third accomplishment, the organization of the Student Partici- pation Council', cannot be credited entirely to thelclass of '34 for the classes of '35 and '36, Mr.'E. Post, and Mr. I. Fles, have contributed tremendously to its support. We have reached the end of our high school careers. Although we look forward to the future with eagerness, we leave Christian High, the faculty, and fellow-students with the greatest reluctance. The class of 34 wishes to voice its appreciation to all those who made our High School life so pleasant and bene- ficial and to express the good will of each member of our class towards it.
