Our noble teachers - Have told us that we seemed to be ambitious, If it were so, it was a splendid gift And splendidly tonite were we rewarded. Here under leaves of our principal and the rest, For our principal is a generous friend- So are they all-all generous friends, Come I to speak this word of parting. We've been a class faithful and bound to win And our teachers say we were ambitious, And our teachers' are most generous friends. We have learned many lessons at this school Whose records have the general average raised Hast this in us seemed splendidly ambitious? At times when we have failed, weak ones have wept, Ambition should be made of sterner stuff! Yet our teachers tell us we have been ambitious, And our teachers are most generous friends. You all have seen on this Commencement Day How many here have spoken and sat down And claimed no word of praise, isn't this ambition? I speak now but to prove our teachers, word, Yes here I am to speak what I do know. You've all expected much, not without cause What cause could keep you then from praising us? Oh judgement-thou art crowning us today For men have blessed this season. Look at us Our studies at this school are today over, And we must pause till we have looked ahead.

Vlfith this in mind, we write the class history of June 327, so that we shall bring back to our classmates vivid memories of happy days gone by. It was on a sunny day in September, when we first entered our Alma Mater, dressed in our Sunday's best. As we entered the first things that attracted our attention were signs commanding us to go to Room 307. Imagine our disappoint- ment when after looking about we could not find the promised Lai lVith throb- bing hearts and heavy feet, we climbed the three flights of stairs. As we entered room 307, Mr. Hall, our principal spoke to us of the value of an education. After selecting our courses and receiving our program cards, we were prepared to start our careers at Medill. During our Freshman year the Big Sisters and Brothers helped us through our difficulties when we were still awkward and green , lead- ing us into the year where we were supposed to suffer-no-more . Our Sophomore year was the beginning of all of our activities at Medill. We indulged in the study of Physiography-with Mr. Williamson and traveled around the world with Mrs. Wilson's Geography Class. We also poured over our Geometry books trying to solve theorums . In this year our boys entered into all sorts of sports including Checkers and Chess, Soccer, Basketball, Baseball, etc. Our class then became the Great Juniorsn, of the school. We looked down upon the Freshman as The scum of humanity . The girls joined the Sorosis and could be seen walking down the corridors with their blue and gold shields. The boys joined the K. K. K. and did much for the benefit of the school. As we glanced into the Social room during lunch, who should we see, but our daring young juniors trying to overcome their shyness. Hail our Senior Year! Now we are The Supreme Rulers of our Alma Mater. Among the important activities of this year are the Chesterfieldans, Big Brothers, Big Sisters, and Sorosis, all sponsored by our able Dean, Miss Adams. To these clubs, we divert our time trying to make our school one of the foremost of the city. One of the most interesting classes that we had on our program was History taught by Mr. Chada, and Miss Adams. It was nearing graduation when we organized our Senior Club. After the election of ofiicers, we planned for the most important aifair of our career at Medill The Prom . For the first time in the history of Medill we held our Prom at the Drake Hotel. It was an affair that will live in the memories of all our classmates and now, as we gaze upon the happy faces of our classmates these memories came back to us as if we had lived them over again. Wegare happy to feel that though we leave Medill she will always be with us in our memories. ' IDA SIMON . REBECCA TATKIN Class Historians Paef 54 7- .41 y . I Q A-Q.
