THE MADISONIAN The Freshmen Class has promising material and we are proud of each student who represents us in school and public life. In future years, we Freshmen hope that the classes read the records of those that have gone before them and find the class of 1930 “weighed but not found wanting.” ®f)e JfreSijmen, ©betr Resolution We were green as grass But we’ve learned to let pass The Senior’s jibes with a smile; We are full of fun, Still—we’re ready to run In a race for an end worth while. We’re willing to work hard For the wished-for reward At the end of the four year course; So we’re working with vim, Surely many will win, Then who should have cause for remorse? Now, what I’ve said before I’m going to say once more, You’ll grant me permission I’m certain, And with hearts full of joy Each Frosh girl and boy— Just a minute! I’ll soon draw the Curtain! Resolved: That we’re going to work as hard as we can, We’ll let no one shirk, not a single man, And in the end we’ll gain fame and success To Honor the name of old M. H. S. Sidney Schermer, ’30.

THE MADISONIAN Jfresftman Claste J|ts;torp The History of the Freshman Class is brief. In September 1926, we organized, choosing our class officers: Dorothy Rohe, President; Viola Franklin, Vice-President; Joe Blumenfeld, Secretary, and John Toncoff, Treasurer. This past semester we have worked and toiled to reach one step to- ward the goal of Seniorship, our “Promised Land.” We Freshmen are fortunate in having such good advisors as Mr. Sny- der and Mrs. Stice, for through their efforts, we are able to reach the height of our ambition. Miss Megowen served the first few months as class sponsor and then resigned from the M. H. S. Mrs. Stice was selected to succeed her. The ’30’s have many achievements before them in all the activities of the school, but at present, our class is too young to be represented in many of them, although in basketball, four Freshmen have distinguished themselves by making the second team.

QLi)t Club The Hi-G Club has increased in number just as predicted. It has been an active club this year, helping where needed the most. A few of the girls attended the Mother and Daughter Banquet held at the Y. M. C. A. Frances Carlin was elected President; Clara Bucher, Vice-President; and Irene Woods, Secretary-Treasurer, for the first semester. Owing to the absence of Irene Wood, Dorothy Hazner was appointed Assistant Sec- retary-Treasurer. The meetings are held every two weeks at the Public Library. Topics of interest are discussed and a play is planned to be staged sometime in April. Officers for the second semester are: Frances Carlin, President; Mary Skender, Vice-President, and Dorothy Hazner as Secretary-Treas- urer. The Hi-G Club is well-founded and is—or hopes to be, a permanent asset of the Madison High School. Frances Carlin, ’28. Page twenty-six
