THE MEDINIAN I, Duane Babcock, will my hair-trigger sense of humor to Dennis Dannley. I, Billy Batchelder, give my perfect Spanish pronunciation to Louise Griesinger. I, Dudley Bagley, will my sturdy crop of whiskers to any covetous freshman. I, Erwin Rickard, generously bequeath my natural golden waves to Elizabeth McMillan, realizing that she might make use of them after her permanent has grown out. I, Louise Ainsworth, present my famous nonchalance to Ida Britt. I, Mildred Curtis, am delighted to provide that my ability to outjump all centers be divided equally between Virginia Halderson and Mae Maitland. WE, The Class, provide that all the extra credits of Senior classmen be sold at auction, the proceeds of which, to go to make a fund for a hospital for nerve-wrecked faculty members. THEREFORE, after careful weighing of the matter and due consideration, We, The United Senior Class, have and do firmly believe that, “Where there is a Will there is a — lawsuit and in witness whereof we have hereunto subscribed our name this second day of June, 1932, A. D. at Medina, Ohio. “CLASS OF 1932.” Mildred Curtis, ’32. Class Song TUNE: Carry Me Back to Old Virginia. We want to go back to Old Medina High; There’s where our studying and hardwork began. There’s where we made friends, each with the other; There’s where our old hearts are longing to roam. That’s the place where we learned what we know, Day after day in the fields of thought — No place on earth do we love more sincerely, Than Old Medina High, the place that’s loved by all. —ERWIN RICKARD.
