f:::l C1 p K r::-:1 :The 19:52 Magxi-C1513 Bogsi Basketball Upon returning to schoolvlast fall, we began to think about what the coming year would bring forth along the line of basketball. After surveying the situation, it was discovered that the outlook was decidedly unfavorable. After graduation last Iune, only one letterman was left. However, Mr. Hood set out to do what he could with the material on hand. He proceeded to build a team with Dewey, the only letterman from last year, as the central figure. A few other men had had some experience, and a team was picked which consisted of Lawrence Anderson and LaVern Carlson as forwards, Elmer Larson as center, and Dewey and Hines as the guards. The reserve material consisted of William Malone, Lester Iohnson, Victor Larson, George Iackson and Charles Sluga. This line-up did not remain throughout the season, however. Some dropped, either due to sick- ness, or for other reasons, and some were added, so that when the season ended we found Anderson and Garell at the forward posts, Dewey at center, and E. Larson and Strotman as guards. This proved to be an effective corn- bination. Forty Five '75 Eg. : F .ry

As the year ebbed slowly by, it became more and more distinct. Finally, on May 19, it arrived, with the Iuniors and Seniors anxiously awaiting 8:00 o'clock. Shortly after eight, everyone had assembled, ready for a good time-- and a good time was had. The gym was attractively decorated in the colors of the two classes: red and white, and purple and gold. A delightfully, entertaining program was presented by the Iuniors. A very appetizing lunch was served. The rest of the evening was spent in dancing. At twelve o'clock we went home, tired but happy and contented. SENIOR FAREWELL A Senior Farewell Party was held for the Senior members of the Girl Reserves in the spring in the gymnasium. The place was prettily decorated and lunch was served. All the Senior Girl Reserves were guests of the lower class members of the club. The loss of these Senior members will be noticed next year but there are many others willing to take their places and help to improve and make the organization a success. -E. M. M. THE CICERONIAN CIRCLE An advanced Latin Class was again formed this year in which the speeches of Cicero were studied. There were three Iuniors: Minnie Kelley, Doris Iohnson, and Francena Malmroseg and five Seniors: Roxie Sloppy, Harriet Kymer, Lenora Billitier, Viola Millard and Venus Dane. The class was instructed by Mrs, Lester I. Ordiway. The name Ciceronian comes from the name of Marcus Tullius Cicero. Cicero was a famous orator of Rome, who laid bare the conspiracy of Cataline. He lived from 106 B. C. to 43 B. C. On December 17, 1931, the Ciceronian Circle was entertained at a Satur- nalian Party at the home of Mrs. Clarence Okerlund, sister of Viola Millard. At a late hour the lunch of the old Romans, fruit and nuts, was served. Gifts were exchanged and games were played. Mrs. Ordiway entertained the Ciceronian Circle at her home to a candy party. Everyone made candy, and at a late hour a lunch was served. Every- one reported a very good time. -V. D. V32 5 I 55? I ' Forty Four 'L' f ' I if . ,
