THE OAK-1935 SENIOR CLASS HISTGRY XYe started the ball rolling as sophomores by the presentation of the highly successful play, Not Quite Such a Goose, with the stellar roles played by Leonard McDonald, Virginia Daniels and l'ansy jean XYoods. Soon after our first bow to the public we were the guests of the junior class at a Hallow- een masquerade party held in the old school gymnasium. Ut might be of in- terest to state that the award for the best costume was given to limerson Hunt.j Our sophomore president was Cilenn lieith. ln our first year. we were represented in the basketball queen coronation by the one-and-only Helene Schemmer. NYhen we made our debut as juniors the ball gained momentum as our list of activities became longer and longer. Our play. It Happened in Holly- wood, brought a great deal of hidden talent to light, proving that our class had what was necessary for success in dramatic lines. The outstanding accomplishment of the entire year was our May Day banquet in honor of the departing seniors. Hotel Robidoux's Crystal Room was a veritable garden adorned in the center by a tall silver Maypole with beautiful streamers in the class colors: purple and white for the juniors, and rose and silver for the seniors. The banquet room was decorated throughout with lattices entwined with sweet peas. our class flower. Oh. how we labored making those sweet peas! From authoritative sources it was learned that ours was the most beautiful banquet ever held in that hall. Again at the coronation of the basketball queen the junior class was well represented by Helene Schemmer, Gladys Heinz, and Mary Diller. In our junior year was introduced a new Lafayette institution, Field Day. in celebration of the opening of the new Lafayette athletic field. Our class had as captain of junior girls Allene McVay. and of boys Samuel Taft. XYe came to the front again when Marshall Mathers as junior representative suc- ceeded in retrieving the golden derby from atop a pole. During this year john Loe was our president. The ball was rolling at top speed as we entered the last year of our high school career, with Donald Cluster holding the office of president. Every senior awaited with bated breath the outcome of the Oak campaign, which was to determine whether or not the senior class should publish an annual. A large thermometer was placed in the hall and day by day anxious eyes watched its progress, until, with a final burst of strength, the mercury went over the top with three hundred and five annuals actually sold before October the twenty- ninth! Immediately after the goal was reached, work started on the 1935 edi- tion of the Oak. A Tn this year's basketball coronation. the senior class was outstanding. Helene Schemmer was crowned queen of l.afayette's court, and among her at- tendants were two other seniors, Ruth Robbins and Gladys Heinz. Our play, HThe Call of Youth, was an unusual and difficult one, yet a most impressive production. The leading roles were taken by Helene Schem- mer, john l,oe. and Donald Cluster. l.eonard McDonald starred in his role of the derelict father. As we near graduation and look back over the noteworthy achievements of our class during the past three years, we feel that we owe a great deal of our success to our competent sponsor, Miss XYinifred Gallagher. who has willingly guided our efforts and has always encouraged us to do our very best for Lafayette.
