Highland Park High School - Highlander Yearbook (Topeka, KS)

IT was with glad hearts but faltering steps that the seniors of '38 entered Highland Park High School. They found in a short time that they had entered a realm of life entirely different from that to which they had been accustomed, yet they proceeded resolutely on their Way. Miss Virginia Welty was chosen class sponsor for the freshman and sophomore years and did much to lighten the hearts of the Mgreen freshiesf' The outstanding event of that first year was the move to the new high school building. The sophomore year held no great appeal other than the fact that after it was completed, we would be upper- classmen. As our junior year drew to a close, we recalled the many delight- ful occasions we had experienced during that time. With the help of our able sponsor, Miss Ruby Scholz, and assistant sponsor, Miss Golda Crawford, we had given the seniors a lovely prom, carried out in royal purple and gold with the theme of the year-the coro- nation. We had presented our first class play, MThrough the Key- hole, and had each and every one acquired the personal dignity of being an 'fupperclassmanf' Now before we have had time to realize it, our senior year is over. We have presented our second class play, uThe Mummy and the Mumpsf, under the direction of our class sponsor, Miss Golda Crawford, and have been delightfully entertained by the juniors, 'cOnce in a Blue Moonf, As we take a backward glance, we see that the Highland Park High School we knew as freshmen has grown from a school of 230 students to an institution of more than three hundred. We have helped' our music department gain laurels any school of any enroll- ment would cherish. We have fought through all-victorious grid seasons in our junior and senior years. We have produced dramatic presentations to which we took pride in inviting our parents and friends. We have upheld a scholastic record that speaks well for the Scotties as future citizens. We have become convinced that it is important to know Hhow to win friends and influence peoplef' We have looked at the work of our hands and minds and have seen, Hbehold, it was very good. And now again we enter a new realm of life, but this time with less faltering steps. Through four enjoyable years at Highland Park we feel our days have fitted us to enter the world with keener minds and a better understanding of life itself. With this in mind, we-leave our Alma Mater, bidding farewell to those who have made our high school years so enjoyable and so worthwhile with the assur- ance that along will fond thoughts of thee remain in our memory. The Senior Class
