History of the Senior Class IS year ' s senior class began at M. U. S. in 1 1 )2t, four years ago. The class has been changed around, but there are still quite a number of good students and athletes left. When we began at M. U. S., always dear to us, we were somewhat timid, entering a new school, meeting new boys, and being taught by a new faculty But as the time went on we found ourselves as a young bird that might venture forth from its mother ' s nest to learn to fly (but not in an aeroplane). Then we began to take interest in the school, boys, and teachers and soon found out that they will make some of the best friends we will ever know. Our time has been spent in many different ways, but first of all in studying, then in senior class meetings, selecting and buying the rings, and having our pic- tures taken for the Annual. One of us has been here for eight years, another six. and still another only one. But just the same we have had a fin? tine, and feel that we are leaving the best school we will ever attend. We feel that M. U. S. is our school, and love it so much that we hate to leave it. But so long as there is no other way out of it we must do so, and always try. to make the best of things, and always look at the good side of life. The officers of the Senior Class are: Roy Wenzler, President; bred Hooper, Vice-President; Wilson Raney, Secretary-Treasurer; and William Fleming. Class Historian. All of these have done their duties very well, and we wish them the same success in their class standing at college. Page Thirteen

ROBERT YORK, JR.— M. U. S. ' 25- ' 26- ' 27- ' 28- ' 29; Wilsonian Literary Society ' 26, Secretary ' 26; Hamiltonian Literary Society ' 27- ' 28- ' 29, Secretary ' 29; Topics Staff ' 27- ' 28- ' 29; Annual Staff ' 29. Robert came to M. U. S. four years ago at the age of twelve and he was the smallest hoy in school. He started off with amazing grades and since set a record in the school for the best con- e is the valedicto- rian of the Senior Class, an honor which he well deserves. He hasn ' t par- ticipated in sports on account of his size, but this did not keep him from being one of the best liked boys in the school. Robert leaves us with the intention of becoming a chemical engineer, which he will study at Tennessee. MALCOLjM M. SMITH— M. U. S. ' 26- ' 27- ' 28- ' 29; U Club ' 27- ' 28- ' 29; Wilson- ian literary Society ' 26; Hamiltonian Literary Society ' 27- ' 28- ' 29; Swimming ' 27 and ' 29; Topics Staff ' 28- ' 29; Annual Staff ' 29. Smitty, as he is called, entered M. U. S. in the second term of 1926, and has been another good student and a popular boy. His hobby seems to be archery, because he spends many aft- ernoons practicing and teaching other boys the art of hitting the target. Mal- colm is also a member of the football squad, and played during most of the games last season. In 1927 he helped to bring the Swimming Cup to M. U. S., by his active work on the relay team. Next year he will go to Geor- gia Tech. where he will study architec- ture. We hope that we will be able to visit one of the great skyscrapers that he has planned. Page Fourteen
