Class History If 5' T is hardly to be expected that we would be less meek and terrilied was than any other rreshmen, but with eliicient oriicers and sponsors Follow, and to successfully complete our iirst year. Our officers l were: Chester Russell, presidentg Auclre Mae Minneman, vice l president, Ann Elizabeth Dee, secretary, and Bertha Dee, treas- urer. Miss Pearson and Mr. Parks were our sponsors. ig to guide us, we managed to fulfill our motto: Always Lead, Never 1 As Freshmen we were represented in many of the school activities, including basketball, track, band, orchestra, and the glee clubs. We were saddened by the loss of a classmate, Kenneth Carnes, whose death oc- curred early in the spring of 1929. Before long we attained the title of Sophomores. For that year we chose as officers: Ray Baugher, presidentg Merrill Hendricks, vice presi- dentg Edward Gable, secretary, and Dorothy Overmyer, treasurer. Miss Pearson and Mr. Parks again served as sponsors. Several members oe- longed to the Latin Club and we were represented in the Latin contest at iVabash. At last the antics of our Freshman and Sophomore years became his- tory and we were Juniors. Early in the year we elected the following of- ficers: John Rutledge, presidentg Orval Partlow, vice president: Edith Hendricks, secretary, and Vevel Braner, treasurer. Our class play, Smilin' Through, was the outstanding event of the year. We also gave a very successful carnival. Our Junior year was brought to a close when we en- tertained the Seniors with the annual Junior-Senior Prom. At the beginning of our Senior year, we introduced a new method of selecting officers. Those chosen were: Charles Hubbard, president, Chester Russell, vice presidentg Georgia Zeck, secretary, and Ruth An- drews, treasurer. These officers witn three other members, William Pettit, Julia Worley and James Willman constituted the council which guided us through the events of the year. For the fourth time, Miss Pearson was chosen sponsor of our class, but this time Mr. Myers was selected to help her. The class conducted a magazine campaign for the Curtis Publishing Company and then the Retro campaign to which the underclassmen con- tributed quite generously. Since the Junior carnival was so successful, we decided to try it again, and due to our previous experience the last one was even better than the first. Members of the class took an active part in Debating, Basketball, Dramatics, Hi-Y, Girl Reserves, Swimming Clubs and Musical activities. Once more we produced a successful play and then came the long-to- be-remembered Hick and Ham Day. Junior-Senior, Class Day, and Bac- calaureate followed in close succession. But as all good things must come to an end so must our four years of training at dear old Hartford High. BERTHA DEE, DOROTHY OVERMYER. e ---V---'Ing ' f fl '
