Cla Ss Hisfiory Fall 1932, alas! eighty three strapping youngsters doomed to grind and toil for four mortal years. That was we Seniors when we were young and comparatively innocent, before we had attained our present dignity. The boys were rudely seized and shorn until the north side of the assembly shone with glittering pates. le persevered, however, and were pacified by the Freshman Reception. This uncorked the 'old bottle' which has poured steadily ever since, attaining goals that classes may strive for through many years to come. Joe Allman was our first president and under him, the other officers, Don Hays, Ruth Madden, Irma larehime, Virginia Adkins and Helen Frye, succeeded in welding us into a machine for unusual accom llshment. le entered the field of honor and the room of study acquit- tlng ourselves in such manner that we figured heavily on all posted lists of names.

First came football. le had twelve lettsrmen in that sport and if it hadn't been for the lncovenient points that the other teams made, we would certainly have been undefeated champions of the Okaw. Five basketball letters were displayed in our class together with three varsity emblems in track and nine in football. These numbers, although small, represent more than half of the total number awarded. Our Thesplan disturbances came to a head in the month of larch when we presented 'Shirt Sleeves', a vivid drama of the depression. This play fulfilled our hopes financially and made lt possible to plan our next class effort on a magnificent scale The climax of our Junior careers was the 1935 Junior-Senior Banquet. There were three divisions of the mighty program: the banquetg the melodrama, and the ball. Between the courses of the banquet, a quartet sangg there were vocal and xylophone solos, a one act playlet, and tap 18
