SOMANHIS EVENTS 29 IVY ORATION As these last days of our High School career are drawing to a close, we, the class of 1928, look back with fond memories upon the four happy years we have spent together in the halls of South Manchester High School. During this time we have learned to respect and cherish the wonderful opportunity which has been ours—the opportunity of be- ing a member of this school. It has been not only our privilege, but our pleasure to be able to join the different teams, clubs, and organizations of the school. During these four years we have seen a rapid improvement in all school activ- ities. We have seen our athletic teams —football, baseball, basketball, track, swimming and tennis—improve year by year until now we are able to look upon any of our teams with real pride and say, truthfully, that they equal the best teams of any other high school in the state. Our various clubs—the glee clubs, the debating club, the dramatic club, and our various language and literature clubs are truly to be regarded with pride and sat- isfaction. Other organizations, too, such as the band and the orchestra; are espec- ially a credit to the school and to those connected with them. Then there is our school paper “Somanhis Events,” a pub- lication of which we should be most proud, Best of all, perhaps, we have seen during the passing of each year a decid- ed increase in the Honor Roll. So we, the class of 1928, look back with no regrets upon our share in the successful achievements of S. M. H. S. We have filled to the best of our abilities the niche in school life left open for us, We have taken up the S. M. H. S. Ban- ner, and carried it on as far toward the goal of achievement as we could. Now we shall leave it for you to carry on fur- ther toward this goal. Freshmen: Our short = year of acquaintance with you has shown us that you have the right spirit. You have done excep tionally well in school activities. Your splendid scholastic re- cord surpasses any made by previous classes. You have organized new clubs and supported all sports. Carry on and you will surely make a success of your high school opportunities. Sophomores: We know that you have the makings of creditable upperclass- men. Your fine spirit has been shown by your accomplishments in all fields. Next year the honor of being called “upperclassmen” will be bestowed upon you. Continue as you have in the past, and you will have no fear of abusing this honor. Juniors: Next year you will became dignified and sagacious seniors. The school activities will be yours. The suc- cess of our teams, clubs, and organiza- tions will depend upon you, Support your school paper to the best of your abilities, and place it high in the ranks of high school papers. When you take up the reigns where the class of “28” leaves off, take them with vim and purpose, and put your heart and soul into the accomplishments of next year’s work, especially in the field of scholastic achievement. Develop a higher standard of scholarship than any class has ever set, for the scholastic ranking of our school next vear depends largely upon your class. Seniors: Today we are seniors in the halls of South Manchester High School, After our graduation we shall become freshmen in the school of life. Our paths will diverge. Some will take one road; some will take another of the numerous roads of life. But, no matter which road you take, always keep fresh in your mind the memories of the happy days of your high school experience. These memories will spur you on to do bigger and better things in whatever field you may choose. Friendly ties, which have been cultivated during the past four years may be broken, and new ones will be made, but always keep up the fine spirit which has carried the class of 1928 to scholastic success, so that when we become seniors in the school of life, we will be at the top of the ladder,
