CLASS anew, for conditions were so different from what we had been used to. But after settling down to the new surroundings we juniors again accomplished a great deal. Although only twenty-seven members 1'eturned, those who did come back to school were very ac- tive. Officers elected were Marion Alch, President: L. .I. Kempff, Vice President: Grace Zobrist, Secretary: and Clyde lsert, Treasurer, Our sponsor was Mr. Kiburz, who taught science that year in the absence of Mr. VVhite. As students grow up and progress through high school, they take more activi- ties upon their shoulders and assume more leadership. We juniors used the opportuni- ties of the new school building to great ad- vantage as is seen by our activities during this third year, The first thing that we did was to sponsor a Christmas candy sale. The girls of the foods class made the candy and members of our class sold it. We sponsored an assembly program which was a mock Major Bowes Amateur Hour. All the ambi- tious amateurs of the high school partici- pated, and much unusual talent was discov- ered. Too bad that the Major himself could not have been there! After all the basket- ball tournaments were over, we spons01'ed a Leap Year-St. Patrick's Day party. This proved to be quite a novelty, for the girls in- vited the boys to the party, asked for the dances, and also, incidentally, bought the refreshments! This party was a very suc- cessful innovation to the school in the line of parties. As Leap Year comes only once every four years, our class was lucky to have the opportunity to introduce this style of party. The next important event of our junior year was the class play. With the help of Mr. Yates, our class put on the first play in the huge gymnasium of our new school. The play was entitled The Millionaire, a Long- F I93 mans Green play in which George Arliss starred some years ago. The financial and productive success of the play were equally successful. The cast was ably handled by Mr. Yates and proved its worth in the per- formance. As a class we are proud to have had the opportunity to produce the first play in the new school. The last, biggest, and most important event of our junior year was the junior-senior banquet, We solved the big problem of decorating and equipping the large gymnasium efficiently. The theme of the banquet was an old southern mansion, and all that goes with the thought was found at our banquet, including the fried chicken, a southern moon, and good old southern hospitality. With the completion of our ban- quet and the end of the school year, we were reminded that we had only one more year to remain in the realms of high school, to enjoy our-selves, and at the same time to accom- plish good. This, our last year, closes the activities and history of the senior class of 1937. Our class was enlarged by five students from Marine: Leona Becker, Virginia Uonrad, Irma Grotefendt, Ardith Middleton, and Floyd Tabor, and four from Alhambra: Milburn Bishop, Lynn Dauderman, Virgil Klaus and Inez Wetzel. We chose Marion Alch, L. J. Kempff, Clyde 1-sert and Blanche Paul for our officers: and Miss Foster, Mr. White, and Mr. Ewing were our sponsors. A fair percentage of our class has par- ticipated this year in the numerous activities of the school. We did not take over the organization of the Student Council because not enough interest in it was shown by the -students as a whole. However, twelve of our members helped the Glee Clubs win honors in April, and Blanche Paul acted as their pianist. Three of our boys, Robert Kleiner,
