19...PlONEER...31 Such a game! Such pep! Such wonderful playing! Such music and cheering! Sturgis and Sheesley certainly put Wm. Penn in reverse! We'll never forget it. December 13-Whoopee!! The John Harris Fair!!! There were concerts, movies, amusements, refreshments, dancing. Everyone was thrilled! And you should have seen Mr. Phipps, just wreathed in smiles. We don't know yet whether it was because of the success of the fair or because of the baby. January 5-Our short vacation is over, all too soon for us. Seniors, think of it-only 11 days more!!! January 16- The Last Day of School. Tears? yes, a-plenty. The weather man was thinking of us too, for he certainly made us slide to our Class Day. We sincerely hope that the coming Senior Classes will be backed in as fine a spirit as was ours. -Sarah E. Knauss. 5 Commencement Dance Have you ever been to the Harrisburg Country Club? If not, you should have been there on Friday evening, January 23, 1931. It was there that the Midyear Senior Class of 1931 held their Commencement Dance. What an ideal setting! This dance will never be forgotten by anyone who attended it. It will be remembered for its gayety and friendliness which existed throughout the entire evening. How attractive the girls looked in their formal gowns, gliding here and there with the boys to the rhythm of a really snappy orchestra. It Was here that the boys were needed to complete that most entrancing picture. The Club House was decorated in a color scheme of green and gold, which seemed quite appropriate to the occasion. The committee in charge consisted of: Fred Bankert, chairman, , -, Donald Beaner, Florence Bitner, Anna Eley, Sara Knauss, Ruth Shawfieldfizs and Charles Schwab.

. PIONEER. Class Song Farewell to thee John Harris Our Alma Mater dear Whose loving care has helped us Strive on from year to year To gain thy highest standards And all of them uphold Has ever been the aim of all Of thirty-one's green and gold. Farewell to thee John Harris Our Alma Mater dear To teachers who have aided us To school mates gathered here And may ensuing classes With eager hands take hold To carry on the work begun By thirty-one's green and gold. Farewell to thee John Harris Our Alma Mater dear A sad farewell we say at close Of this our senior year As we take up our life's work And visions broad unfold We ask your dearest blessing On thirty-one's green and gold. -Ethel Mildred Eshbaclz.
