How proud we are of that title, but it has taken us three years of work, play, and study to earn it. We entered N. T. H. S. September, 1930 as shaky and as green as any class that ever started on a High School career. Ninety-eight of us, soon under the capable guidance of Mrs. Eekhoff, Mr. Myers, Arlow Julian, Clifford Jones, Daniel Bost, and Iola Husman, completed our first year creditably. The next year, with our newly acquired name and dignity of Sophomores, we again chose our officers. This time we elected Miss Pircher, Mr. Rademachcr, Vernon Buescher, Vladimir Sanuskar, Lena Florini, and Winifred Geiss, who were all the finest ever. We stoutly maintain there was never a more active and honorable class than the Sophomores of ’31-’32. The next year, eager upper-classmen, we set to work with new energy. We were especially proud of our Junior leaders, Miss Yackle, Mr. Stumm, Hazel Read, Roland Rabold, John Cibulka, and Mike Popovich. They were certainly busy people, for they had to steer through the troubled waters of our Junior Class Play, Junior-Senior Banquet, and many other activities. And now, a class of sixty-eight, we entered the serious business of being Seniors after an apprenticeship of three years. Since being Seniors is a serious business, we necessarily must choose the best of people to lead in the organization. We found some very competent ones too, Miss Yackle, whom we had the great privilege of having for the second time, Mr. Barth, Ruth Kanke, Tommy Mulholland, Melinda Tossetti, and Arlow Julian. Their fine generalship has been a great factor in our successes as a class and we are very grateful to them. After a year of their exceptional leadership we have at last arrived — we are the class of ’34. Eight
