numerous and varied. Skating and theater parties, dances, kid day, and plays held our interest throughout. The two dramatic ventures were Murdered Alive , the first semester oiferingz and Smilin' Through , the senior play. To this last act we have given our best and most faithful serv- iceg and now as we stand on the threshold of our last and final act, we are resolved that we will give even greater things and achieve greater success than in the past. Half of our number dropped by the wayside. We are sorry. We wish they could enjoy with us our final triumphs. Each member has attained a crown in his particular manner. Seven of our troupe became Varsity Letter-men. Allof us have gained the priceless jewel of friendship. It was a hard, but pleasant fight, and we shall go forth from our graduation wealthy with friends and armed to make a place in the world, where we may try to be as happy and as successful as we have been at Moon Town- ship High. FAREWELL Now, Seniors all, we must heed the call, That has come to take us from this hall, Where we have so earnestly sought education, That we might the better serve our nation. We've all had fun We must admit, For those of our class are quick of wit. And if the faculty at times we've tried, We know they like our better side. To those Juniors who are able to pass, We bequeath our place at the head of the mass. And, Sophomores dear, if at times you fear. Remember you'll be Seniors in another year. To the Freshmen who at times are blue, We too were children just like you. And so to our friends both kind and true. We bid just now our last adieu, And some day in Moon High's Book of Fame, May you too be able to carve your name. This page is sponsored by FIKE ELECTRIC COMPANY Chas.

F rank McCormick CLASS HISTORY Early in the month of September, 1933, a group of actors, who as eighth graders, had already made their presence felt during the initial season of that well-known unit, Moon Township High School, made their appearance as freshmen ready to take the school by storm. The meager amount of ap- plause they received showed them that they must earn their laurels. Now we have reached the last scene of the last act and we hope that our gradu- ation will be as stirring a finale as ever a curtain has rung down upon. In Act I we became engaged in struggles with the new high school cur- riculum which appeared very complicated to us freshmen. Several of our troupe were interested in athletics and followed their calling. Others be'- came interested in such activities as glee club, dramatics, and orchestra. Through the efforts of some of our actors, the operetta, Circus Days , was presented. During the intermission we gained new momentum and when the cur- tain arose on Act II, we went on with greater spirit than before. and wel- comed the new activities and problems with appropriate ceremonies. At this time we held first place in the school, as the junior and senior vears were not yet a part of our high school. As a class play we presented the comedy, Meet Uncle Sally , which won for us no small niche in the hall of dramatic endeavor. Also the success of Moon High in the extra curricular fields was in no small part due to the members of our class. In the course of Act III, we were again relegated to second place, as the high school offered now the full six-year course. The beginning of a football team lured many of our classmates to the gridirong our initial appearance in basketball under the W. P. I. A. L. saw several of the boys of '37 provine' that they were equal to the challenge of much stiffer competition: band organization induced several of our members to show their musical ability: and the dramatic efforts of the year resulted in Dotty and Daffy and a minstrel show. In Act IV we sallied forth on the top of the waves and conquered the last of the obstacles between us and graduation. The social functions were This page is sponsored by T.
