ef Q JOHN SNYDER ELAINE VAN BLARICON CAROLYN STEVENSON JOHN HILL THE SENIGR CLASS IT SEEMS but a few days since, what was then a group of sophomores, came marching into the lVl.H.S. corridors, as new members of Marion High. Al- though a little shaky and awed by the upper-classmen, they were anticipating the many pleasant days ahead. ' As a result of the first election, Carter L. Davidson became president of the class. Under his leadership the class gained a live-wire reputation which has followed it up to the present time. Paul Burke led the class through a junior year outstanding in social activities. The senior election of '34 was a battle royal among the many capable lead- ers in the class, but a wholly satisfactory solution was gained by the election of Jack Snyder, president: Elaine Van Blaricon, vice-president: Carolyn Stephen- son, secretary: and Jack Hill, treasurer. The class activities of the year have been numerous. and successful. Social activities began with a party in the high school gym. Work on the Cactus Frolic and Easter Parade, and winning honors in the Thanksgiving charity drive added to the senior laurels. Possibly the outstanding event of the year was the crowning of the Easter Queen. By popular vote the students of Marion High School made it known that only LaVerne Bradford, senior, could so capably hold this high honor. On Arbor Day, April 13, seniors planted an elm tree in front of the school to replace the tree donated by a former class. Ceremonies befitting the occasion -,399 ' were held. - Senior week came for the class of '34, as in former years, with the senior ljii, A program, picnic at Wawonaissa Glens, Baccalaureate services, and finally the 3,,fa,-A-gi Commencement giving us a sense of gaiety, and yet leaving us with memories not ll to be easily forgotten.
