HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS CLASS NOTES- SENIOR We are nearing the end of our High School days. The past year has been a very inter- esting one. In future years we shall probably enjoy recalling events which have taken place. We shall remember the fun we had the day we dressed up the Frosh in ridiculous cost- umes and introduced them to the school. How disgusted some of them were! The Sophomores thought they would like to do the same with us, so realizing that child- ren must have their fun, we dignified Seniors consented. The work connected with producing- this magazine has also been very interesting, but how our arms and heads have ached after hours of steady copying! JUNIOR We have eight members left in our class. In January we lost Evelyn Campbell, who thought she’d be more of a success as a Senior. Evidently she is, as she is the Class Val- edictorian. Mae Carter was elected for our president, Roger Craig vice president, and Evelyn ' 23 On Friday night, March 27, we held a Class Dance in the Knox Hall. We decorated the hall with our class colors, Am- erican beauty rose and white. Cards were played by those who did not care to dance. Eustis’ Orchestra furnished music. A cafeteria supper was served. We cleared $25.70. Evelyn Campbell is our Class Valedictorian. Her average is 88.8%. Leah Bates, with an average of 80.6% for three years’ work, is Salutatoriam The others are: Erva Mc- Lear, 79.7 (Vice Pres.); Ros- coe Pilger, 78.6; Marshall Ty- ler, 77.7 (Sec. Treas.); Dor- is Foote, 75.0; Cyril McDou- gall, 78.3 (Pres.) ; Howard Moore, 70.9. ■ Our class motto is, “Out of the Harbor into Deep Waters.” —Erva McLear. Goodwin for our secretary and treasurer. + The class motto is, “Going . Higher,” and the class colors are: Old Rose and Silver. On April 10 we gave a dance and cleared $21.60. We intend to use the money for our graduation expenses which probably will be numerous. —Cedric McDougall.

22 HAMMOND HIGH HAPPENINGS caused. All the world of school was rosy until she stepped in, wrecking the romances that had lasted for years. Robert Moncrief and Will- iam Gleason never cause any trouble. They’re the “silent partners” of the class. Loretta Dart—She was an awful nice girl, but she left. However, we still have Lana Cuthbert. No need to worry about losing her right away. Jack Hughs and Harold Chase—Both nice boys who will never cause the teacher to get gray hairs. Hilda Dake is liable to be a poet. Guess may be that should be “poetess.” Helen Nelson — They say “gentlemen prefer blondes.” Well then, probably anyone who doesn’t prefer Helen, isn’t a gentleman. Vincent Felt will never tear the world apart unless he man- ages to catch up on his lost sleep. Janet Gallagher, Ernstine Demick and Irene Baxter—No need to worry about them, ei- ther. They’ll step right into the great Sophomore shoes next year. The greenness of Wendell Nicol and James Fletcher is emphasized by the sweaters of the same hue which they wear. Oh, they’re very becoming, al- though Wendell’s is getting rather faded. Julia M:erritt — Can’t say much about her. She’s old enough to take care of herself. And now Rose Gascon—She hasn’t been in the ranks of the Frosh all year, but they seem to accept her “carte blanche.” Ivan Hall is much older than he looks but he was too incon- vincing for the State Troop- ers, but how in the world did Maurice Maloy’s Ford always get by them. Hope Bill Massey won’t be mad because he’s last. How- ever, the last shall be first and the first shall be last—to grad- uate. Oh, well, they’re all plenty young yet and by the time they get to be Sophomores they’ll be older—Yes, some of them much older. A Sophomore.
