'ov' .4' Class History lt was February, l935. A group of shy, frightened-looking students entered Christian High School, trying their best to be nonchalant about their new surroundings, but not quite succeeding. After our official, though rather noisy, welcome, we were ready to plunge into the difficulties and struggles of a high school career. ln September our group was augmented by another group of Freshies and under the capable guidance of our sponsor, Rev. W. Stuart, we organized as the Class of '38, ln our first election Bob Bolt emerged as victor for the office of president, and under his able leadership, the Class of '38 started on its way. September, l936, found us willing and ready to step forward and become Iuniors. Once again we elected Bob Bolt president. We prepared for the Iunior-Senior Party, the most important social event of the school. This was successfully given May 27, 1936. Then came exams and vacation. After the summer had passed we returned, now as sophisticated Seniors. For the third time our genial and popular president, Bob Bolt, was re-elected. We then enacted the important legislation which all Senior classes find so necessary and inevitable. Christmas cards were sold, rings were selected, and the Memoir staff was chosen. We are now looking forward to Commencement and the conclusion of our high school career. We look backward a bit wistfully, wishing we could repeat the good times we have had at Christian High, but also looking forward to the battle of life. A. H. K. E251
