CLASS WILL For some reason or other, every year each Senior class must die. We, the Seniors of 1920, frantically called for the doctor to see if anything could be done to prevent it. The doctor, with the aid of Mr. Fowble, decided that we were altogether too bright, seeing that we had all of our required credits, and told us there was no help for us. So after making a visit to Mir. Alwin Wild’s and signing the following will at Attorney Pierson’s, we twelve Seniors of 1920 lay down to die the death which is in store for us. Personals bequeathed by the Seniors : FIRST: — I, Ava Tolle, bequeath my ability to draw pictures (not attention), to Grace Trae ger. SECOND: — I, Esther Boldt, bequeath my privilege of attending all the H. II. S. dances to Martin Friedrich. THIRD : — I, Frieda Ewigleben, bequeath my seat in the back row of the Phy- sics Laboratory to anyone who wants it. FOURTH: — 1, George Gill, bequeath my ability to play basket ball to Owen Crisman. FIFTH : — I, Gretchen Shore, bequeath my Freshman chum to Edward Hahn. SIXTH: — 1, Helen Linkhart, bequeath my loving Sophomore friend to Violet Croan. SEVENTH: — I, LeRoy Stark, bequeath my daily wad of chewing gum to who- ever can find it on the underside of the seat in which I sat in the Physics Lab. EIGHTH: — I, Margaret Gerber, bequeath my dimensions to Frank Gresser. NINTH : — I, Mary Maybaum. bequeath my literary tendency (to write notes) to Verva De France, providing she is able to get enough note paper. TENTH : — I, Raymond Kostbade, bequeath my success to get all the required credits to my namesake, Lefty Kostbade. ELEVENTH I, Robert Frank, bequeath my WILD, WILD ways to Grace Traeger. TWELFTH:- -I, Vera Quinlan, bequeath my dancing ability to Frank Gresser, and if said party does not prove himself graceful enough, the said honor shall be bestowed upon Walter Isakson. THIRTEENTH:— We hereby appoint Mr. Small executor for the Seniors. HELEN LINKHART. f Miss L. Copeland. Witnesses-! Miss Ilittner. [Mr. Johnson.

1 320 JOL SEN IOR CLASS Q £g H.H.S. gg 53 SENIOR CLASS £5 For the past five years Miss Gerber has been the stenographer in the South Chicago Steel Mills, but has resigned her position during the past week. Reason ! In a clipping from a Chicago daily, we find the announcement of her engage- ment. By the way, her prospective husband is five feet four and one-half inches in height. Just recall the year 1024 and you will surely remember the exciting cam- paign when Miss Boldt ran for state senator on the Progressive ticket and was defeated on a narrow margin. At present, she is contenting herself by writing articles on “Woman Suffrage’’ for “Any Magazine That Will Accept Them.” At the present Miss Linkhart is attending the Chicago University and in my interview with her the other day she would give me no definite idea as to what she intended to do when her course there was completed. Mass Tolle says she has an idea, well, maybe I have too. Miss Ewigleben on leaving school became an employee of the Gary Heat and Light. Her work is so efficient that her employers feel that they cannot get along without her. Gretchen Shore? ? 1 Oh, yes, she has had what might be called an inter- esting time since leaving school. She took a course in secretaryship, and took her B. A. on January 22nd, 1924. February 28th of the same year, she pro- posed to Mr. Rightman, and on February 29th, 1924. became Mrs. Rightman. LeRoy Stark, the last one to join the class, just naturally followed in the footsteps of his father and became a minister. At present, he is trying to bring “light” to a group of Pennsylvania miners. Here’s hoping he succeeds. Vera Quinlan is a famous politician. Not long ago 1 heard her give a splendid address on “Civic Improvement” which I am sure impressed every member of the audience. Write again, AVA TOLLE. TO THE SENIORS. The easy roads are crowded, And the level roads are jammed; The pleasant little rivers With drifting folks are crammed. But off yonder where it’s rocky Where you get a better view, You will find the ranks are thinning And the travelers are few. Where the going’s smooth and pleasant You will always find the throng. For the many, more’s the pity, Seem to like to drift along. But the steeps that call for courage, And the task that’s hard to do. In the end result in glory For the never wavering few.
