Page Eighteen Senior Class Poem We will find a path, or make oneg We the Class of '28, When we leave Newcastle High School Will go forth to learn our fate. We shall scale the walls and turrets, Till we reach our highest aim. Onward! Upward! Tho we stumble! We shall keep on just the same. As we look we see but mountains, Overhung with treacherous rocks, With no path in sight to follow We'll trudge onward o'er the locks. We will find a path, or make oneg Tho the road be hard to climbg Up and o'er the hills and valleys Thru the trials and cares of Time. Q -Vina Hathaway

Page Seventeen ll : History of the Class of 28 We were twenty-five in 'ranks in our freshman year and now we depart with twenty-we-ight, which is rather an unusual thing, for most classes diminish in size as- much ashalf, by the time they are Seniors. . V If you will look through your old Annuals you will find at the close of the article on the Freshman class this statement, NOW LOOK OUT FOR US IN THE FUTURE, SCHOOL. So V it has beeng for when it came to producing a Basketball team, giving a party, giving a play, or even decorating a Christmas- tree, the Class of '28 was right there. , It will be interesting to note some of our athletic achieve-- ments. The class started out as Freshmen by defeating the Soph- omores in the class Tourney of '25, fhe next year they took their natural place by winning second place, being the second class in school. The last two years they took the Tourney both times, and furnished a good part of the first team squad. This year the senior class had representatives to the number of four on the Girls' Championship team at Lingle. Q Let us review for a moment the various students who were elected to the class offices during our High' School years. First came Madaline Massoglia as freshman president, then Parm Pickle serving.in the same capacity during our Sophomore and 'Junior years, and now Maurine Pleak is serving the class to the best of her abilities as president. As vice, presidents we have had Ralph Baldwin, William Ost, and Harold Grieves. Now we come to the last but not least important task that of Treasurer. Those who have been allowed from time to time to hold the sack, were Elizabeth Gaido, Maurine Pleak, and William Ost. In recounting the social activities of the class, we find a var- ied number of socials, varying from dinner dances and 'weiner roasts to sleigh riding parties Ccommonly known as, freeze-outsi. Now we leave with only happy thoughts of our accomplishments and activities and kindly thoughts towards our teachers and school, with the realization that it is never to be again. . W. A.

Page Nineteen Class Prophecy REVUE OF A DECADE 11928-19381 which shall go down in the annals of the Motion Picture World. Presented at the Ed- ison-Roxie Theaters of which Mr. Hugh Johnson is Manager. This great chain of Theaters 'extends from Newcastle, Wyoming, to New York City, N. Y. Mr. Fred Wegher, Chief Assistant of Mr. Johnson, has been traveling the World over securing the most noted scenes of events during the decade. A NATURE OF THE EVENT: Unveiling of the Memorial given to Mr. Paul Gaido, first Trans-Pacific flyer, formerly of New- castle. The fame which the former flyer, Lindbergh received isn't even to be compared with the fame accorded to Gaido. The next scene is of Miss Reta Jones who has become a great essay- ist. She will read her famous series of essays on Lincoln and will be presented with the Medal which was made for her by an es- special Committee appointed by President William Ost, who has received great fame by discovering gold in the Black Hills around Newcastle, which resulted in his election to the Presidency. The Medal was made of some of the first nuggets which were discov- ered in the mine. After these two all-important events are over, there will be a dancing act given by the Ziegfield follies. The leading role was to have been taken by Miss Maurine Pleak but due to injuries sustained on account of the strenuous congratulation which she extended to Miss Reta Jones, she had to have her double, Miss Ila Hathaway, substitute for her. Miss lla Hathaway took the lead very gracefully and made the act a howling success. Part of this success was due to Miss Bea Bennett who de- signed the costumes. She is known the world over as the Paris Style designer. She has worked out a design to make a fat per- son look slim, and a tall person look short. ' The next event was rudely interrupted by two men carrying Mr. Ova Yemington in on a stretcher to submit to the 'first work of the famous nurse-Miss Gladys Pridgeon. Mr. Yeming- ton, who was testing his latest model, which was to exceed the Ford in speed, had me-t with this unfortunate accident. The next event was a revival of a number of old songs, the first of which is entitled, I Found a Peanut. These songs were l .Q
