8. THE BROWN ing. Of seventy-five Freshmen only twenty-nine remained. In the junior year the mathematics shark, Charles M-cFeaters, departed for Annap- olis, to be a little QFD seailor boy. Then, too, Rlonayne VValdron, the president of the class dur- ing the Sophomore and junior years, decided tc continue his studies elsewhere than in the G. H S. And so with less than half the original num- ber remaining, the class 'began what was destined to be the best of all the H. S. years. Four good officers were elected: Charles Shoemaker, pres- identg Carolyn Zundel, vice presidentg Ray Koon treasurer, and Eliza-beth Martin, secretary, and with Miss Ulery as teacher, and the privilege tc talk and to eat fudge, the Senior class looked forvwiard to a year of good work and lots of pleas- ure. It seemed as though the Freshman times 'had come again, for nearly every day the fudge was there to be passed around and if some modest lower classman stopped bashfully at the entrance and gazed with gaping mouth and wide open eyes at the Hsweetnessn of the scene ,he was cordially invited come in and welll show you around. But the troubles soon came. for Mr. Graham and Miss Ulery both insisted that the Seniors were not dignified enough, and therefore did not set good examples for the lower classmen. But the students thought differently, for, between the shining red light and the gay, studious Caro- line, there existed every bit as much dignity as was necessary for the rest of the class put to- gether. As yet, I have made no mention of the praise- worthy deeds in athletics which were done by both girls and 'boys of the class of 1910, But I have left it for the last, in order toibe stamped deep into the memory of the reader. During the four yars in High school the boys of the class listened earnestly to the appeals of the principals to d-o their lbest, not only in school work, but also in athletics. As a result, I am proud of their clean record in football, baseball and basketball. Several seasons, five or six members of the class of 1910 alone were on the football or basball teams, and for 'their excellent hard work, never was an f'H or a sweater given out, but that the -class of 1910 was well represented among those to receive the rewards. The girls, too, showed their earnest efforts to gain victories in athletics. Basket ball was their 1,,. AND WHITE. . only game, and, although the quantity wasflack- ing, the quality was so good that many a long, hard game was faithfully fought and won. And so, amidst the honor in scholarship, the good work both in studies and in athletics, the pleasant jokes and delicious fudge, I silently watched the class of 1910 pass through their glorious career in the Greensburg High school, and go forth into the wide, wide world, to meet the destinies in store for them. With the heartiest wish that future happiness may attend each and every member of the class of IQIO, I close my History. K. B.-'10. ' COMMENCEMENT, JUNE 8, 1910. High School Auditorium.
