fl G9 l Ji we e Moc-1061 e FE Q S SENIORS we quickly organized our class to begin the work we knew lay ahead of us by electing Earl Naylor as President with Clyde Parsley, Vice-President, Helene Silvers, Secretary-Treasurer, Mr. Sageser, Sponsor, and Mr. Cade, Class Adviser. All the class had the privilege of attending the Indiana High School Press Association convention and annual critique held at Franklin College. We started an interest in the school paper, The Scroll, by publishing one issue of an All-Senior paper. The class, after long discussion, decided to purchase rings. These rings were very beautiful. This year our class carried off all the honors in oratory. All the con- testants were Seniors. Mary Jacobs won the school elimination and repre- sented the county in the district at Columbus. The Seniors won the Junior-Senior debate, 2-1. The question for debate was, Shall Indiana adopt by law the principles of old age pensions. The speeches of both teams showed that much time and effort had been spent in preparing them. To increase our apperceptive basis for Economics the class visited the Citizens National Bank and were shown all the different departments and asked the bankers some rather puzzling questions. The class also went to the courthouse and visited the court room, jury room and county clerk. Anne of Ann Arbor was chosen as our class play. The class, like in everything else they have undertaken, showed a great deal of dramatic ability in making it a grand success. The graduating class was entertained by Mr. and Mrs. Dayton Fertig Wednesday, May 28, with a delightful dinner at Ye Wayside Inn, followed by a party at the beautiful Fertig home. Miss Esquline Coons entertained the Senior class at the Red Elphant Inn, Monday, June 2, with a delightful chicken dinner. The remainder of the evening was spent in a social way. It was our 'pleasure this year to be entertained by the Juniors at the Junior-Senior reception. Everybody enjoyed themselves in dancing, playing cards and games. The teachers ended our school year very nicely by giving a fine Sbnior breakfast for us. We had a jolly good time with plenty of swimming, boating and games that will long be remembered. Although our class is one of the smallest ever to be graduated we have had a very successful year. After enjoying any number of parties, giving a very successful play, being entertained by the hard-working and long-suffer- ing' Juniors, and publishing the best Annual ever printed, the class of '30 with its orators, opera singers, actors, and poets turn with sadness in our hearts from the place where we have spent the best years of our life to face the great cold world and to struggle toward ideals.

Second row, left to right: Miss Coy, Sponsor, Earl Naylor, Raymond Litherland, Heydon Buchanan, Clyde Parsley. INALLY we reached our long sought-for goal-to be upper-classmen. Our school year was darkened by the death of a member of our class, Kathryn Hopkins. She was always one of the most popular and well liked girls in school. We all miss her and feel that She's noit dead but has just gone away. Both the Junior and Senior classes had the opportunity of attending the State Legislature. This was a new experience to most of us. We also went to the top of the Soldiers and Sailors Monument. Claire Barnette represented in a very able way the Junior class in the district commerical contest. Although she didn't win first place she made a good showing for the class. We gave the annual Hallowe'en party and Junior-Senior reception. Both were enjoyed by all who attended. To show our respect for the Seniors we ushered at the play, Baccalaureate exercises, class night and graduation.
