g mgst everyone entered into the hilarious 'game of Air- plane, which consisted of donning helmet, goggles, and flying down to the end of the line with a parachute. Now, as we stop to look back over the last four years we realize that these' have probably been the happiest years we shall ever know, Although we may have caused our teachers much undue trouble and worry we feel that they will not soon forget us--nor we them. Unruly as we were at times, we did appreciate their patience and efforts to impart to us that knowledge so necessary to our success in lifes Looking through the class roll we find some interest- ing facts. Three girls and three boys of this graduatimg class have gone through their entire twelve years of school together. They are: Shirlie Slusser, Elzena Reidt Frances Smith, Leslie Dunwoodie, Leland Tallman, and Quin- tin Field. y We find many of our boys have been outstanding in at- h etics, and other members of the class outstandingin other activities. k This Annual, we leave as our last tribute to Newport High School, carrying it on as the class before us hoped we would, and'as we hope the classes to follow us will. In later years, when we all shall have parted and gone our sezapate ways, this book will probably be one of our dear es possessions which we shall occasionally look through to refresh our memories of the happiest days in our life,

CHORUS Now our High School days are nearly over, Neath the flaming crimson and the black, ' And we all regret to leave our classmates, As we will not soon come back, And our teachers true, We'll think of you, And friends that we all love so well. ' Then we'll all be dreaming of our school days, Neath the flaming crimson and the black,

for our Junior Prom. We considered many and various themes, and with a desire to make our prom entirely origie nal--getting away from the usual custom of decorating to represent A country--we struck upon the idea of rainbows to represent our ideals and ambitions. Thus, we trans- formed the hall into an informal garden after a rain with a beautiful rainbow above it? The excellent music we pro- vided was only one of the mary things that went to make the Prom a grand success, The remainder of our time was taken up with decorating for the Class of 35's Baccalaure- ate and Com encoment Exercises. Does it seem possible that we--those mischievous Freshies of 1930--are new the graduating Seniors? Well, we are! This, our .last year, has been a very successful one all the way around. Of course, first camo the question of worthy class officers, When the meeting was called to order by our Junior c1ass'Prosident and nominations were opened for class advisor,' there was just one unanimous shout, that of Mr, Waller, The question was settled then and there, and he very kindly accepted the responsi- bility. Quintin Field was elected Presidentg Elzena Reidt Vice President: Eleanor Shumway, Secretaryg Shirlie Sluss- er, Treasurerg and Bob Zumwaltg Student Council Represent- ativo, Late 'in November we presented our Senior Play WLady of the Mon,U which was, if'anything, even more suecessfull than our Junior Play. Mr. Waller very ably coached the play cast to perfection and to him is owed most of the credit for the brilliant success of the play, To live' up to our name of a poppy class and clever entertainers, we finished up this year with a grand Senior Balls , Small green airplanes were hung from the ceiling to look as though they were flying above the dancers, and a large silver plane was hung in the very center of the hall Colored flood lights provided the only lighting, which was Very effective, ' A short program was presented during intermission nd
