Class Song (By EUNICE COULTER) Tune: “Rendezvous With A Dream” When we leave, our dear old high, We will remember you, remember you. With a sigh. For our cares, were small and few, And we were happy here, so happy here, Friends with you. And so we say, dear old high school. We’ll miss you so much, and through the Years In the future. We’ll store happy dreams, dreams of you. And so at last, we say adieu. We will remember you, remember you. Dear old high. Class Poem (By LOUISE DAWSON) LIFE’S VOYAGE As, when sailing o’er the ocean In our frail ships of life; As, through storms of fierce commotion. Causing waves of bitter strife; As, through days of peaceful sailing When the skies above are blue, If we are or are not failing. Laurel High, we’ll think of you. When, by chance, we drop our anchor In the port of deep despair. If a butcher or a banker. Let’s not leave our anchor there. Take it up and travel onward To success. And then still true, Laurel High School, we ll look forward To our home port and to you. SENIOR CLASS COLORS: Silver and Green. CLASS FLOWER: Roses.

E, the seniors of 1937 are gathered together on this very solemn occasion to bequeath and transmit our valuable assets to those behind us who may find them worthwhile. Duly drawn up and sworn to on this 25th day of May, nineteen hundred and thirty-seven. ARTICLE I Section I—To our beloved superintendent, Fred W. Graff, we leave our deepest reverence, loyalty and gratitude for all he has done for us in our four years in Laurel High. Section II—To T. H. Bennett, we leave all the hair-brained football plays and players which he can dig up in Laurel High; also we will our obedience and love, to him whom we have so grately learned to respect. Section III—To the faculty in 'general we leave all the scoldings, quarrels, etc., that we have had with them and that we wish to forget; also the hopes that they will miss our mischievous manner just a little. Section IV—Sorrowfully we leave to the beautiful new high school any marks, scratches, spit-wads, or waste paper which may be found lying around, and also our dearest remembrance of the many opportunities it offered us. ARTICLE II Section I—Doris Mart-hand wills her position as Champion Gum-Cracker of Laurel High to Rose Ellen Foley, and Freddie Hilgert to any one who wrants him. Section II—Bill Porter leaves his ability for debating to Jackson Parker, for since Jackson won't be big enough to crash a line next year he may be able to talk his way through. Section III—Evangeline Budge leaves all the cold cream jars behind her. Section IV—Ruby Weichert leaves her ability to hold a boy whether he wants to be held or not to Florence Ranger, and her neat appearance for those who need to take the hint. Section V—Sadie Leichtnam wills her recent boyish bob to Gertrude Gilles along with the many comments. Section VI—Albert Shay is sorry to say that he has no gift for the remaining classes as he is taking Alice Haagenson with him. Section VII—Loretta Coy, telling us that she has grown tired of it, leaves her giggle to Helene Roberts with the hope that she will be more successful using it than the one she already has. Section VIII—George Davis leaves his special brand of hair oil to Lloyd Shay with hopes that it will help him just a little—sorry Lloyd, but you will have to inquire about the brand. Section IX—Louise Dawson leaves her shyness to Ruth Heebner, for modesty is the greatest charm a 'girl can possess. Section X—Catherine Conrad leaves her habit of sleeping—just to get rid of it. She doesn’t think it worth leaving to anyone. Section XI—Eunice Coulter leaves her position as ideal girl of the senior class to anyone who thinks they can take her place. Section XII—Eileen Harrison passes on to Bud Edwards the red hair willed to her by Eleanor Price. Section XIII—Bob Ph.vthian leaves his “way with the women to Eddie Burke with the hopes that Eddie doesn't have as much trouble with it. Section XIV—Lillie Munyan leaves her hair-dress to Irene Russell—just in case. Section XV—Helen Munyan leaves her place as Miss Sutherland’s assistant to Margaret Harper. Section XVI—Helen Winters leaves her pleasingly plump appearance to anyone w-ho may need to improve their figure. Section XVII—Kenneth Shay wills his frowrn to Russell Packard. Don’t make too much of it, Russ. Section XVIII—Dorothy Chopper leaves her quiet and reserved ways to Jimmie Myers. There’s your chance, Jimmie. Section XIX—Norman Drake leaves his tenor voice to Gene Daniels so that he can change off whenever he chooses. Section XX—Don McManus leaves his supply of siams behind, we hope; and his slowness just to be rid of it. Section XXI—Harold Price leaves his January’s spring fever to anyone who gets cold in the summertime. Section XXII—Clara Behm leaves her slacks to Mary- Baird. Never mind! the first hundred years are the hardest. Section XXIII—Art Arnold leaves his passiveness to the overwrought Freshmen. Make good use of it Freshmen, it’s a fine art. Section XXIV—Ruth Brickman leaves her avoirdupois to Mary Baird. Section XXV—Amelia Frank wills her quietness to Jessie McGinley, feeling that he can make 'good use of it. Section XXVT—Lydia Spomer leaves her dimples to Dorothy Graff. Who knows, they might come in handy. Section XXVII—Faie Bailey, understanding that Helen Kircheis desires them, leaves her well plucked eye brows to the little lady. Section XXVIII—Ruth Brohaugh leaves her secretarial appearance to Betty Evert, and just leaves her moody habits behind. Section XXIX—Josephine Quinn wills her sweet and charming attitude to Loraine Allen and her ability to blush to Imogene Bohan. Section XXX—Gladys Habener leaves her resemblance to Katherine Hepburn to Kathleen Starkey. Section XXXI—Clifford Phillips leaves his comic al tactics to somebody else. Cliff wants to be taken seriously for a change, we think. Section XXXI—Bernice Miller leaves Laurel High in a joyful state. Ah, Bernice, we wonder why? Section XXXIII—Beatrice Miller leaves dear old Laurel High nothing. She is worrying about Bernice leaving her in the lurch. Is that true Beatts?
