Closs History Thirty years ago an important document was signed which was to guide many hun- dreds of young lives. Since this deed of trust was formulated, H. 1. S. has progressed until it now rates as a highly qualified secondary school. We, the graduating class of 1939, are proud to be at the peak ofthis rapid progress. In the fall of 1935 a group ofspirited boys entered their freshmen year with great ideas for the future. Since that fall of 1935 many ofour group have left, until now in our senior year there remain only sixty-seven of those first ninety. The experiences of our first days in high school will not be soon forgotten by its members. We entered with the diss tinction of being the second class to start a full four-year high school course in our own high school buildings. To interscholastic sports competition we contributed little the first year, but we showed promise, for in our annual intramural track meet, combined with the seniors, we defeated the sophomores and juniors 78 - 72. With a deep and genuine desire to forge ahead., we entered our sophomore year. No longer were we as one, but each was now working in his chosen field toward a set goal. Our contribution to interscholastic sport competition increased, and again we topped the intramural track meet with the aid of the juniors. In other activities of our school our contributions were also very noticeable, as in the band, glee club, and other extra-curric- ular activities. Returning for our junior year, we changed childish pranks and foolish play to better advantage by serious thinking. . We now began to work with earnestness for the goals set in our sophomore year so that we could meet the qualifications for a well rounded life. This was to be our best year in sports, for in the many interscholastic sports, such as football, basketball, and track, many outstanding athletes were placed on varsity teams. Because we lost many of our athletes in our senior year, we lost our intramural track meet for the first time, although it was still a closely contested battle. At last one ofour goals was reached - our senior year, with its parties and many other senior experiences which will live long in our memories. We inaugurated the first student council ofour school. It proved to be a successful venture. The annual Senior Day with the students ofHershey High, as sponsored by our Junior College, was another venture of our senior year. Our last months passed quickly, too quickly, it seemed. Our pictures and rings were given to us, finals came, and we knew our days in our beloved school were drawing to an end. At last came the triumphal day for which we had worked so hard - graduation. With happiness and sorrow we bade our Alma Mater farewell. if As we go our own ways in life, following our own ambitions, we will never forget the guidance of our first, generous superiors. To Mr. Hershey, our benefactor, we cannot say in words the deep graditude and appreciation we feel for the opportunities he has given us. We hope that our future will speak for itself. Ten
