TRADITIONS May Fete — Perhaps the oldest of our traditions is the May Fete, which is staged annually by the Physical Education Department. Apron and Overall Day — One day each year is set aside for the wearing of aprons and overalls by the Directors and Students. Junior-Senior Banquet — At the end of the work year it is customary that the Craftsmen entertain the Masterworkmen with a banquet. This is one of the most popular events of the year. Senior Class Day — One of the most memorable days of Senior Activity Week is the traditional class day. at which time the Class Will and Prophecy are read. It is on this day when the Junior-Senior processional is held that the Seniors relinquish their possession of the balcony to the future Masterworkmen. Senior Dance — One of the outstanding events of Senior Activity Week is a dance. It is a tradition that one member of each couple must be a Senior. The dance is usually held the night after Commencement. Baccalaureate — Hickman Baccalaureate services were held for High School stu- dents for the first time in 1931. It is hoped that this beautiful service will become a traditional part of Commencement. 26

Physical Education Miss Anna Sue Kennedy Life is a great game — if you learn to play fairly. Here ' s hoping that you continue in the same good sportsmanship for which Hickman High is famous. Mr. Glenn C. Smith The sportsmanship of Hickman High School is unexcelled in my estimation. The student body as a ichole is behind every project started and sees it finished, both in athletic and aca- demic contests. The harmony and cooper- ation of Hickman High is something to be proud of. In conclusion I will say that Hickman High is the best school I have ever had contact with, and I am proud to be as - sociated with such an institution. ■■ 25

Student Representation The Workmen are a valuable asset to any Industrial System. Recognition of this fact is manifest in Student Representation, which pro- motes between the Directors and Workmen an understanding, of the Ideals to be achieved in Our Workshop.
