June Class Qflicers JOHN HOWARD GANO This dignified senior has held the im- portant position of class president for two years, shouldering the responsibility of it with a grin. Johnnie proves that he is quite as human as the rest of us as he was late for school nearly every morning this year. Liked equally well by teachers and friends, he has held many of the more important extra-curricular offices during his high school career. BETTIE JEAN HOULETTE Bettie is that short little girl with the dancing brown curls and sparkling brown eyes whom you have all seen skipping thither and yon always busy trying to help someone. Her merry contagious laugh has echoed thru the halls of M. H. S. for three busy years. Filling the position of class secretary is no easy job, but Bettie has held it very capably for two years. HAROLD GEORGE LOESCH Harold has often been referred to as the absent-minded professor's son of M. H. S. However, anyone can tell you that Harold isn't really absent-minded, but merely looks that way. His curly mop has waved gaily thru high school giving him an irresistible quality of friendliness that belongs only to him. MARY OLIVE WERNER Thru the trials and tribulations of being a treasurer of a treasury without money, Mary Werner has stood up bravely under the strain. Mary has often been seen straggling to school in time for the last bell with deep, dark circles under her eyes 'be- cause the deflated treasury had left her sleepless the night before. For three years Mary has successfully jingled coins to the tune of the school bell.

January Class History The career ol' the 88 members of the January class began back in the days of the sophomores in 1936 when we elected Paul Smith for our president. At the same time, very wisely, we think, we chose Miss Pearl Danback as our advisor. The first enterprise after organizing was to enter in the Alums Day Parade a float showing the Shelby football team all in their graves. The next year also .found us in the parade, showing the defeat of Galion. We have a faint recollection of a rummage sale, for the benefit of our treasury. .Another boost was the Holiday Hop, a dance held in the halls during Christmas vacation. At the end of our sophomore year the class had a picnic out at iSpiker's grove, with a baseball game and plenty to eat. Our 'biggest undertaking was the Carnival Clomp, the dance of the year, which had the school in a whirl of ex- citement. It was an honest-to-goodness carnival with side shows, a House of Terror, bingo games, and true circus decorations. In the fall of 1937 we took up the role of dignified Senior A's, to set an example for the rest of the school. We let down on our dignity one Thursday evening and spon- sored a roller skating party at the rink at North Lake Park. It was filled to capacity and skaters had a rollick- ing time, though it was a forgotten sport to most of them. Lady of Letters was our Senior play, with Doris Betz and Richard Moore in the leads. All in the cast played their parts well, and the performance was a decided success. The climax of our social events was the Senior party. The scene was set as a Spanish tavern and the whole party carried out this effect. Our commencement exercises were held on January 28, 1938, and with regret we realized our school days were over. IN MEMORIAM CHARLES WILLIAM SHA1-'ER October 28, 1919-May 28, 1937 excellent student and all around good fellow. 'Shady's sense of humor and his carefree, Cheerful manner were an inspiration to all who knew him.
