fum .fl- 'l' GQ Seniors When these dignified seniors were but measly, green sophies in 1935, they showed their ability to pick able leaders. They elected Robert Lanphier, presidentg Boyd Rostine, vice-president: C. B. Latimer, secretary: Maxine Frederick, treas- urer: and Miriam Moore, lack Brown, and Guy Holt as their student council representatives. These officers had excellent supervision from Earle Brickey, sophomore sponsor. These sopho- mores were quick to learn how to get the most from schooling. They joined clubs, attended the games regularly, and did much to increase the Booster section. The next year the class of '37 entered into the activities with much vim, vigor, and vitality. Their enrollment increased, they held the majority of the positions on the Buzz staff, and held many offices of the school. One of the three students who led our cheers in 1935-36 was none other than Elizabeth Ann Steinheimer, junior. These juniors didn't stop at that. They had leading roles in the operettas, held first chairs in the band and or- chestra, and placed two or three boys on the basketball team. They excelled in not only the activities of the school but also had a high schol- arship rating. Every important organization has to have af- ficers to lead them over the rough places upon the highway of life. These juniors knew this so they wisely selected as their officers Guy Holt, presidentg Bette Embick, vice-president: Mary lane Boyd, secretary: Verleen Miller, treasurer: and Miriam Moore and Don Roof as their student council representatives. Miss Emma Sage ably sponsored them. Twenty To wind up a grand and glorious three years of friendships, loyalty to the school, and a broader education, the seniors elected Don Boof as president. He presided over the traditional class day program given by the departing seniors. To work under him the students chose Barbara Frisch, vice-president: Bill Cates, secre- taryg lames Albright, treasurer: and Gloria Swanson and Bill Sidlinger as student council representatives. This class did not slacken their pace in the slightest when they reached the senior rung of their ladder, but put forth their best work. Eliza- beth Ann Steinheimer was elected head cheers leader with another senior, Hillard Thomas, as an assistant. Betty Ann Shears and Dwight Erick, seniors, had leads in the first operetta of the year. Almost all presidents of the clubs were seniors, and if it were not for the seniors what would we do without the Allagaroo because the staff is composed wholly of seniors. The seniors were very unfortunate this year in the loss of one of their members-Floyd Thiessen. Floyd was well known among the stu- dents and was liked by all in his large circle of friends. The seniors in leaving this school wished to express their appreciation for the sponsorship they have received during their last year of school. The sponsors were headed by Mrs. Arganbright. She was ably assisted by E. A. Cairns, E. C. Almquist, john Brewer, Alice Steele, William McCort, Ada Cannady, Vaden Stroud, Marion Nelson, Margaret Widick, and William Cole. 45N
