'4jiyh Jliyhti felt, the underdogs. V sent Stan Murphy and Pauline Goodnoe into Student Coun- cil as our representatives. We entered this year with eleven of our classmates dropping out, leaving only eighteen to carry on. In this year Janet Kyle was elected to the office of president with Tom Priddy vice-president and Jeannette Stanton secretary and treasurer. Jane Stone and Tom Priddy acted as Student Council representatives. Mr. Griffin was elected as faculty ad- viser for the next two years. This was probably the most uneventful year of the four. We showed our spirit by conducting a successful assembly program and a class party. Again the same boys blazed a name for the Sophomores across the fields of sports. Several of our girls were not to be outdone and they played an important role in sports. Several of these sophomores aided greatly in the monthly publica- tion, The High Lights. In our junior year, we enjoyed the honor of sponsoring the most memorable social event of the year in the annual Junior Prom. This was due to every member’s aid under the able guidance of our faculty adviser, Mr. Griffin. We began to realize that the lower classes had a certain respect for us. This made us feel our standing and realize that now we were an important cog in the affairs of our Alma Mater. Tom Priddy and George O’Hare served as president and vice- president respectively, with Jeannette Stanton capably filling the position of secretary and treasurer. Tom Priddy and Agatha Bethel filled the offices of Student Council representatives. This year George O’Hare made history by swallowing a thumb tack during an earnest lecture by Miss Johnson in French II, earn- ing worry for all concerned. We continued our path in sports and gained a beautiful silver plaque for inter-class sports title. When each Junior had received his class ring a new lift was given to each heart and a new love for the Blue and White. Entering our last year, we each had deep in our heart the fact that we would end our high school career in a blazing path of triumph. Regardless of the hardships and worries that we met, we recall happily each glorious and thrilling event we ex- perienced. Each one brought to the fore a deeper love and sense of duty to our school. Under the gliding hand of our en- thusiastic faculty adviser, Miss Nightingale, we made a name en- vied by each one of the classes. The Washington Trip, an event which we had been looking forward to for three long years, came and went so fast that not until it was over did we recall the most exciting and grand time any of us had ever enjoyed. Due to the grand cooperation of continued on puge 16 Nine

SENIOR ( LASS HISTORY Contrary to most freshmen, we did not enter high school as scared, frightened greenhorns. We had an idea of what high school might be like and thus we came in to our own as freshmen probably more bold than many classes had been before. Of course we were awed at our surroundings and we had naturally, respect and pride for our superior classes. During this year we really had nothing to do, but serve as underdogs to the high and mighty seniors of ’35. The officers were: Tom Priddv, president; danet Pyfe, vice-president; Jane Stone, secretary, and Stan Mui pm, treasurer. Mr. Townsend was chosen as our facultv adviser. We were not to be out-done in the field of sports. Cortv Ross played an outstanding game on the court and was known as one of the best guards in the Adirondack League. Cortv Ross , (Plhu-e, Stan Murphy, and Tom Priddv also played soccer and baseball. Now entering our Sophomore year, we achieved greater honors. We had acquired more boldness, and we in return plav- ed pranks and enjoyed making the freshmen class feel as we had
