Leincr. □ March 31 our class sponsored a box social. The entertainment con- sisted of selections by grade and high school students. A good time was enjoyed by all who attended. The junior class play, given April 12, was a success both dramatic- ally and financially. The Juniors consider it quite an honor to have had the editor for the “Tempest” chosen from their class. Miss Dorothy Leiner was chosen to fill this position. Dorothy gives her time freely and is faithful to the staff. She has been a great help in making our paper the success that it now is. Our class is still keeping in good form scholastically if I may judge by the honor roll. The following have withdrawn since September: Mary Louise Hen- drickson, Jack Kelley, Hazel Madearis. Jay Taylor, Pauline Kokemuller. Not in pictures: Edna Camp, James Snyder, D. Woodruff. 10

For the first two months the upper classmen stepped back and let the Freshmen and Sophomores have the spotlight for the Freshmen Initiation Party and Sophomore Carnival. The Juniors then started the ball rolling on November 3 with the Junior-Senior hunt. Due to the mouselike dispositions of the Seniors, the Juniors were unable to locate their hiding place, which they found later to be the second floor of the Congregational Church. The Juniors, having lost the hunt, gave the Seniors a chilli supper at school a few days later. On January 14 the juniors again burst forth. This time with a cake- walk which accompanied one of the season’s basketball games. It was a huge success and—Yum Yum! the cakes were delicious. 9

THE FRESHMAN PARTY The 1937-38 Freshman will, no doubt, remember Saturday night, October 30th, as an evening of fright, embarrassment, laughter, and a pang of pain, which was furnished by the villians of the day, the Sophomores. After being initiated into Chilli Hi, the Freshmen were sent off the stage with a bang which was swung by some members of the Sophomore class. To ease the feelings of the Freshmen, towards us, refreshments were served to the Freshmen, the rest of the school, and their guests. Nearly everyone took their part in the evening’s entertainment, when the music, furnished by a popular dance orchestra began, and everyone got into the spirit of rhythm. The Freshmen have one consolation—they will be able to take their spite out on next year’s Freshmen. 11
