HIGH LIGHTS junior (Class History As thirty-one bewildered, scared, and yet thrilled freshmen, we entered high school in September, 1934. For us, in the good old days of 1934, it was a great treat to be able to mingle with, and be high school students. Our hearts swelled in antici- pation of the four exciting years ahead of us, years which would contain mistakes, and perhaps a little sorrow, but also happiness, and loads of fun. During the first year Elsie Mann was President, Richard Hurd, Vice-President, and Miss English, class advisor. This year was decidedly uneventful for us, but we did not mind, for we all were trying for high marks, getting acquainted with the ways of high school, and being ridiculed and snubbed by the Seniors of 1934. Entering our sophomore year, we thought with pleasure of the three very short years before we should graduate from high school and set forth into the world. This year the class chose Miss Doris Allerdicc for the advisor, Emalou Barber, President, Cecil Thomas, Vice-President, and Edward Sheil, Secretary-Treasurer. At this time many of the Sophomores participated in an operetta entitled “Green Cheese.” Now, as Juniors, came the first big times of this “perfect class” with Miss Laurel Johnson as the class advisor. The President was Richard Hurd, with Marion Westcott as Vice-President, and Robert Evens as Secretary-Treasurer. There were many bickerings, but these made everything we did that much more exciting. With Miss Johnson’s guiding hand we put on a comic play with all Juniors participating. The excellent abilities of many of the Juniors came to light during this term. Don Stanton, Richard Hurd, and Ernest Gilbert each cast a blazing light in the fields of basketball, baseball, and soccer. Ed Sheil and Bob Dean provided the class with humor. The last year of these once bewildered Freshmen was haunted with the proposi- tion of earning enough money to take twenty-five Seniors on the annual Easter Wash- ington Trip. Twenty-five Seniors—imagine! It is the largest class ever to be graduated from Hadlcy-Luzerne. This increase in our numbers occurred because seven Seniors came from Conklingville after having previously attended Corinth High School. With these seven came Gertrude Denton, who possesses the second highest average in the class and Floyd York, fifteen, the child of the class. Robert Evens was elected President; Jeanne Hawk, Vice-President; and Esther Baker, Secretary-Treasurer. Parties were omitted this term and all the spare time was spent in holding variety suppers, benefit shows, and raffling off radios and quilts to add to our Washington fund. These activities were under the capable direction of Bob Evens. At Christmas time, the Seniors had the opportunity to prove their artistic genius when they presented publicly a musical pantomine, “Christmas Through the Ages” for the benefit of the fund. In a scries of ten scenes, they gave a vivid portrayal of Christmas as it is celebrated in other lands. Carol-singing in French, German, and Latin added a realistic note and incidentally revealed the linguistic ability of the class. 1 he tireless efforts of Miss Laurel Johnson made this program a success—and added considerably to our fast increasing fund. However the class didn’t quite make the grade and the Board of Education came to its rescue and sent us on the annual Washington Trip. Eight
