QTHE HAT Senior History N NINETEEN HUNDRED TWENTY-THREE the doors of Hatboro High School opened and welcomed about forty pupils, who were known as Freshmen. We were timid and green and didn't know nothin ', but we were intelligent enough to know we needed a little recreation. Therefore, when a suggestion was made that we sail down the Delaware to Wilmington, it was met with, Greatl let's go! So we went, and had a lovely trip. As the saying goes, You couldn't keep us down, so we came back to H. H. S. the next year as Sophomores. During this year we gave a dance in honor of St. Patty, and all enjoyed themselves, indeed everyone declared it a royal affair. The time came when these wise Sophomores were greeted by their schoolmates as Iuniors. We became the proud owners of a beautiful maroon and white pennant which we upheld as the banner of our class. Then we gave a reception to the Seniors and it was said to be the prettiest and best conducted party ever given by a class of the Hatboro High School. Seniors! The name itself implies dignity and bigness. We surely felt our part, especially after we purchased our rings. The present Senior Class standardized a ring for Hatboro High School. All through the year we were intensely interested in the erection of a new building to be used for High School purposes alone. On March 8, the doors were opened and we, the first class to enter, marched in, lead by our worthy President, Carlton Ainsworth, and Adviser, Miss Seehousz. We, the Seniors of Nineteen hundred Twenty-seven, are proud to claim the honor of being the first class to graduate from this new building. The Touchdown, given by the Class of '27-did you see it? If you didn't you certainly missed a good play well given. Such is the general comment. Anyway, we know it was a real success. At present, we are looking forward to going to Washington and hoping that we shall have a fine time. And, now, as we must leave these friends who have shared our studies with us, and go out into the world to join the group of earnest workers, we take with us the happy memories of our school days and the many lessons that were imprinted upon our hearts and minds by the faithful and patient teachers. We bid you all, adieu! ELSIE DUDBRIDGE. Senior Class-Day Song MARGARET E.
