CLASS HISTORY Senior Class History WITH a razzing shout from many a laughing: and fun making spectator, sixty-three adventurous freshmen in 1931, bumped and rattled out of the station “Eighth Grade’’ into a destiny unknown, pulled only by a horseless carriage, with Matt Hartley as engineer and Miss Marguerite Legler as conductress. Our first signal stop was “A Class Christmas Tarty.” Our only main stop was “Scholarship.” where Otto Preikszas won third in the state for general science. This year the class lest one of its well-liked members, Donald Boyd, who was killed in an accident. The next year Post 1922” found us in a much more efficient steam vehecle with closed cabs which went at the miraculous speed of 25 miles an hour, with engineer Charles Wiggins ami conductress Miss Marie Koch. Our first short stop of this trip was April Fool” all school dance. Then Lorene Sage took possession of the girls track medal and our same male achiever took third in the state for geometry. And again we end a year of rough riding across :• prairie and over a hill to plure a spike at Division.” the half-way mark, and a needy rest. With a great puff of smoke we ascended a coach, marked Watch Your Step, on a real steam locomotive. but with fewer helpers and under a new conductress, Miss Ruth Hazlitt. The country began to be settled with many activities, and stations were closer together with many short stops. Our first big stop was Once In n Life Time.” (Junior play.) Then the “New Deal Banquet.” and the “Junior-Senior Garden Scene Ball.” Again the Juniors won the trophy and Otto Preikszas won third in the state pentathlon. Patrick McGuire also received a medal for debate. As seniors, with only thirty-six helpers left and Pat McGuire engineer, we found we had now acquired the grace of a zeppilin and we had a send off for our tour of the year” with “Coeditors of Luurel Leaves.” We then whizzed on at a mere speed of one hundred ten miles an hour to stop at One-Act Plays,” and then a shorter whizz, but just as fast, to the first Alumni Dance.” Again we took rail and shouted to The Mystery in the Library.” At Debate, Otto Preikszas, Charles Shively, and Pat McGuire received medals. Now the high school rails fly from beneath us and we stop for a deep breath at the Memories of 1935, where each of thirty-six workmen will board an airplane to determine what their work in life will be, ami To do what we ought to do, when it ought to be done, whether we want to do it or not.”
