The Viking

The Annual Board T'S all due to those little white call slips, that float around our home rooms at assembly, that you Vikings have an Annual full of memories. Fifteen students have framed the slips that called them into Mr. Borst's office for the purpose of assigning them to the annual board for '26. Because of the diphtheria bugs that floated thru the Viking halls, and the processes of getting the course of study entitled f'Culture , the annual Board nearly suffered a paralytic stroke thru the loss of Evelyn Beverly, lfditressg Philip Peyton, Business lylanagerg and Philip Salter, Organizations, but they did pull thru and we submit the '26 Viking with the hope that it will be kept as a treasure by each individual. The Aeneid, by Virgil, is the theme chosen for the annual. Through the designs the art editors have shown us how Aeneas starts on his travels to found a new city and race. They have pictured lVIinerva crowning Apollo with the laurel wreath, signifying knowledge, the gift of our school. As the Freshman drawing shows that Aeneas is tell- ing Queen Dido the story of his experiences, and has only begun his journeys, so the Senior drawing shows the city founded and the task accomplished. The Honor Roll signifies Aeneas distributing the prizes after the contests, contrasting our awards to those worthy students who have stuck to the task they started out to do. The Contents is The Three Fates who control all destiny and so control the contents of our annual. The Gods on Mt. Olympus, who overlook the destiny of all, is the faculty drawing. The athletic section is introduced by the reproduction of a scene of games celebrated at the death of Aeneas' Father. As a climax or finis we see Venus taking Aeneas to Heaven, a place where every Viking wishes to go. The board feels deeply indebted to lVIarguerite Hill and Eugene Church for help- ing with the sales. Also we extend our appreciation to lVfr. Semple, of Kistlerfs, and to Mr. VVare at Lumiere's for their valuable suggestions. To the Art classes and the Art teachers and club sponsors go the hearty thanks of each individual board member for their drawings and suggestions. l-THE'DEAPc'OLD'ATNNUAl..-BOARD'l A :xi 1 fi fri' X it Uspxjpfh .
