securing our repeated victories that enabled us to reach the finals in the Regional Tournament. At the end of the year we gave the seniors an evening of memorable entertainment at the Junior-Senior Dinner at Beaumont Inn. Joe Humber, Arch Lacefield, Ruby Smith, Adelene Parsons, Martha Leonard, Carlos Dennis, Calvin Trisler. Elsie Stokes, Glenn Ray, Letitia Mitchell, H. L. Peavler, and J. C. Powell furnished a splendid program. At last we approached the grand climax, our Senior Year. To our delight our Junior Advisor, Miss Elizabeth VanArsdall. accompanied us as Seniors. Our confidence that our officers, athletes, and dramatic artists would ably represent us was not misplaced. All of us had a sense of mingled satisfaction and pride when the curtain fell on the performance of our Senior Minstrel and Play. The best features of our first triumph supplemented by a more perfected technique resulted in an excellent production. Nancy Glass, the school’s representative in the discussion contest, ranked first in the district tournament. Celia Moore won the distinction of being chosen as the Good Citizen of our class in the National D. A. R. contest. The Senior Girl Reserves Club progressed under the expert leadership of Reva Wells. Misfortune thwarted our expectations in regard to our basketball team when Jack Park and J. C. Powell became victims of typhoid fever, and a fractured knee put David Reed out of the game. Exceptional skill was displayed by the members of the team who escaped accidents, and they proved themselves to be formidable opponents to strong rivals. Considering our ill luck, our sports season was a successful one, as we ranked fourth in the C. K. C. The outcome of the intra-mural campaign for contributions to the War Fund was gratifying because the most generous donation was accredited to the seniors. Among the most notable incidents of our class activities were the parties we gave as a farewell gesture to our boys who were inducted into the Armed Forces. It is a comforting thought and typical of our way of life that, despite a war, we have published our annual as our final undertaking to leave tangible evidence of our combined achievements. Editors, Carolyn Crossfield and Arch Lacefield, and the other members of the staff, with the cooperation of the faculty, labored energetically to make this book possible. Although it would be ideal to remain in the protective shelter of our Alma Mater, new vistas are opened before us, and we have no alternative but to follow our designated course. These past four years with their indelible memories and pleasant associations with our fellow students have done much to enrich our lives and prepare us for our place in world affairs. Our eternal thanks go to our parents and teachers whose inspiration and guidance have encouraged us to model our characters on high moral and Christian principles, and have forged within us the sparks of ambition. Few graduates have been encumbered with a greater responsibility or endowed with a more glorious opportunity. We possess the potentialities of hastening victory and establishing an enduring peace for our nation, as well as creating those forces that will develop a better world. An earth in chaos and distress needs all our knowledge and resources, while suffering humanity is calling for our strength and sympathy. May we rise victoriously to our challenge! -23- CHARLOTTE C. CORN.
