At this time, too, we found we had been entertaining a genius unawares. Miss lleales, one of our most most nota- ble members, was awarded the first prize in a short-poem contest. Iiefore the close of the school year, the town held a track meet for the high school. Silver and bronze medals were awarded to the winners of each event, while a banner was presented to the class having the greatest number of points. ln triumph we bore home this banner and marked the close of our junior year with a victory. XYe are now Seniors! old, wise Seniors! This is the last and best of four happy years. XVe are no longer silly Freshmen, foolish Sophomores, conceited Juniors: we are the honorable Seniors. This year our ranks were increased by our union with the other division of pupils who will graduate in 1920. The oliieers are as follows: President, Francis Domi- I1 'l'l'l11'l 'V lll'l l.ll.l.l.l.ll.l.l.l.l.l.l.l nickg Vice-President, Marion Rafi: Secretary, Henrietta List: Treasurer, Michael Bilas. The first event on the program was the Senior Dance at the Library Hall. Then, having had our good time. we turned to more serious aiiairs, befitting our age and dignity. XVe are proud of our members who have so ably repre- sented us in the various school activities. The debating teams which won for our high school these. victories were composed entirely of Seniors: tirst team, Peter Cohen, Russell Gokey. Carl Lalumia, alternate. Michael Bilas: second team, Peter Cohen, Marion ltatif. Carl Lalumia, alternate, Michael llilas. The winners of the first prizes in the Eleventh Annual Prize Speaking Contest were Henrietta List and Russel Gokey. During the four years of our high school life, our class has been known as the class that does things. NYC have worked hard, for we have been guided by our motto. Finix Corona! Opus.
