THE TALISMAN JUNIOR YEAR In September of 1927 we returned to high school, bearing the title of Juniors. We, indeed, were proud of the fact that we were upper classmen, and that the now lowly Freshmen and Sophomores looked up to us with a good deal of respect and reverence. Oneof our first duties was to organize and to elect our oflicers. We chose Donald Leach to be our presidentg George Leach, vice-president, Elsie Colburn, secretaryg and Francis Morris, treasurer. ' In November the Senior Class entertained us at a Hallowe'en party, our first social event of the school season, at which time we were reminded of the fact that we had better get busy and hoard up money for the crown- ing light of the school year-the reception for the Seniors. We began immediately by giving movie benefits, pie, cake and candy sales and numer- ous other functions, including our valuable support in the Junior and Senior Play. Finally the day of days arrived and we may easily say, without any egotism, that it was the most royal spread ever tendered to any Senior Class in Lansdale High. To top off the year the Juniors and Seniors held their annual picnic at Spring Mount. We then said good-bye to school and departed for a two months' vacation. SENIOR YEAR When we returned, in the Fall of 1927, we found ourselves on the top rung of our public school ladderg but one year remained for us at dear, old Lansdale High. -A As usual, we proceeded to elect our officers: Francis Morris, president, Russell Greulich, vice-presidentg Majorie Godshall, secretary, and Angemae West, treasurer. , As in previous years we had a Hallowe'en party in the high school gym and the usual amount of fun was had fplus a good deal morel . Our biggest problem of the year pertained to finances-not for a ban- quet this time, however-oh, no, we were Seniors and we were to be guests -but rather to help defray our Washington trip expenses. In March we set a precedent by producing a Senior Play. It proved very successful, as may be judged by our 3300.00 profit. However, our longest-to-be-remembered high school event was our sojourn at Washington. Many incidents occurring on this trip fconcern- ing different members of the classy have proved excellent material for our Senior will, prophecy and statistics. Two weeks after we returned to Lansdale from the capitol, we were entertained by the Juniors at the annual Junior and Senior reception, which was a howling success. With these as high lights of our high school days, may this history recall to our minds in future years many of the good times we have enjoyed. Was ever a feather so lightly blown to and fro as this multitude? LEONORA DETWILER. CLASS COLORS-Blue and White. CLASS MOTTO-Aut nunquam tentes aut perfice. l28l
