wwf . Kit-han-ne Senior Class History HUGGING its way toward the shore, came a huge boat with banners gaily streaming. Cn and on it plowed. Soon it reached the shore and, as the people disembarked, it was learned that all the passengers of the ship were young boys and girls of the early teen age. An on-looker-was heard to exclaim that this group was the Freshman Class, the Class of 1932, .which was to so- journ in the halls of Kittanning High School. For four years the voyagers remained at anchor, learning, talking, and en- joying themselves. Paul Allen was made Chief with Rupert Kelly as his assistant. Other leaders chosen for the group in 1928 were Elmira Giles, secre- tary, and Mildred Noble, treasurer. During that first year, this Class of 1932 grew in strength, in wisdom, and in finances, under the leadership of Miss Mary Lindeman and Mr. john Stewart. After a three months' vacation, the class as- sembled, the ranks somewhat decreased. Paul Allen was again chosen first man with Jack Hill, his assistant. Elmira Giles and Mildred Noble continued to guard their posts faithfully. In April, 1930 the Sophomores held the traditional Sophomore Hop, at which everyone had the usual good time, thanks to the committees, the officers, and the advisors, Mrs. Ellen T. Lias and Mr. Clarence Parcell. Already spring was here and the class adjourned until fall, when it came back, older, wiser, and much more learned. As president this year Jack Hill was chosen and George Hall was honored with the vice-presidency. Elmira Giles and Mildred Noble retained their former positions. Mrs. Lias, beloved by the entire class, was overseer together with Mr. Kenneth Thompson. In October, the scene varied somewhat. At the annual Junior Masque pumpkins, spooks, and lanterns were in evidence. Truly it was a success from all stand- points. Individually and collectively, the class studied diligently until May, 1931 when the routine changed. A farewell party was given to the departing Seniors by the mighty juniors. Dancing, lively music, and a versatile program were in order. All was quiet in the familiar old halls for a time and then the fun began. Each officer was reelected and Mrs. Lias was unanimously chosen as advisor. Many tasks were accomplished this year, the last to be spent securely tied to shore. Under Miss Ruth Shubert, the Kit-han-ne was published. An- other important task was the Senior Class play Kempy , one of the best amateur productions ever staged in the school. Graduating exercises stood first, however. Baccalaureate, Commencement, Class Night with Mrs. Lias as cap- able sponsor, and the Senior Banquet and Dance will never be forgotten. Everything grew calm. Another class had gone forth to return no more. From shore, the boat receded, its passengers scattered to unknown destinations. -me - misss
