She, her inaid-of- honor, Rnthe Rich, and her attendants, Vetura Babcock, Elizabeth Dale, and Pauline Calkins, marched down the aisles to the stage escorted by their respective campaign managers, Dale Davis, John Gabriel, Ervin Somers, Carl Herner, and Edward Vilhaley. The queen's gown was of shell pink crepe over which she wore a train of green and gray. The queen and her attendants carried arm bouquets of white chrysanthemums.

But now. stop to think of the thrill we had in getting our first real taste of high school life. 4-5 Remember our delightful little play, i'Teddy Grows N , , Up , we so proudly presen- 5 ted before the senior high assembly?

To advertise our candidates we gave a skit called t'The Ballyhoo Club , with its never-to-be forgotten imitation of a hiek radio station. Nine members in the Torch and Key was indeed a record of which we could be proud. JOLLY JUNIORS E began to aeeustom ourselves to the rou- tine of high school life and to enjoy more parties, more fun, and more knowledge, all tend- ing to broaden our horizons. The seniors enter- tained us at a party given in the gymnasium. Practice, practice, and more practice-the outcome: H Girl if Shyu, our highly successful jun- A5 ior play, given December 8, 1932. mgvy Then came the time for us to ' il put on our best paraphernalia and go to the banquet which we I gave in honor of the seniors. The W banquet had for its theme the 0 rainbow with a big pot of eandy gold at the end. SUPIIISTICATED SENIORS H141 seniors entertained the juniors at a mas- querade party where clowns, regal ladies ol' the past, 'lkids , hiek farmers and other inter- esting eharaeters were to be seen, April li A liueky lin-ak . was presented. This clever, snappy, fast-moving drama proved a. decided sur-cess. li2ll'l'2llillll'Jlit' will be held May 27 at. the First Presby- terian C'hureh with the ser- mon by the Reverend George Illauze. Class night, May 28, will have as its theme some of the activities in school that have prepared us to MISS HARVEY make a wiser use of our leis- ure time. A one-act play, Uliargains in Cathay , will also be presented, As this book goes to press, there lingers t'resh in the minds of all seniors the memory of a happy evening. On May 1. the seniors were guests of the juniors at a delightful May Day banquet in the Crystal Room of the Hotel Robidoux. The seniors themselves could not have done better in selecting the queen of their class than had the juniors in secretly voting Elizabeth Dale their Queen of the May. Even she did not know what it was all about as she received a note sum- moning her to the hall as the program drew to a conclusion. Vllhat a lucky hunch she had when she selected white satin for her gown! Lucille Haselwood and Pauline Valkins were her maids- of-honor. That ihe fragrance of this May Day of our lives may be preserved, we record the highlights of the speeches. Toastmaster John hoe said: 'Alf there is one quality that a successful school teacher needs, it is a sense of humor. Goodness knows, they need to be able to take a joke to live through the school day and keep their reason. Carl llerner i11 a weleome address: XVe jun- iors wish to express to you seniors our heartiest wishes for your success in all future endeavors. lVe pledge our loyal support, to our Shamrock garden and we will try in every way to maintain the beautiful carpet-like lawn which you have beautified during the past three years. Ray lloehstedler: Nlaying, as I understand it, means playing, and every one knows we seniors have had very little time for play. due to the fact, that we have been so eompletely wrapped up in studies, jey our to u F alw' sucl asle M bloo gooc P1 SBDC the M that it. ting in t foot T i ' .X
