FRED President KROLL Vice-President EN I D GILLIS Secretary HARVEY WILLENS Treasurer Officers of the 12-A Class RED Breyer, 12A President of the Jan- uary, 1938, graduating class is an all round man. As President of House 328, he automatically became a member of the Student Council and thus sports editor of the Viking staff. Dramatic ability secured for him a part in the Senior Play. His outstanding achievement in the Held of sports was election to the captaincy of the track team. ERNARD Kroll, 12A Vice-President, is musically inclined. He plays the French Horn in Northern's Senior Orches- tra, and through this he secured a place on the All-City Orchestra. The treasury of House 308 is ably taken care of by Bernie. NID Gillis, only girl oilicer, was elect- ed Secretary of the graduating class. She makes a most efficient secretary, keep- ing an accurate account of all 12A meetings and records of committee activities. Delta Kappa claims her as one of its members. Her capability and dependability make her well liked by all. ARVEY Willems, Treasurer of the Senior class, was also President of House 208. His work on the Viking staff and Student Council, and participation in the 12A play are all deserving of praise. Student managing of the swimming team won a letter for Harv. In addition to all these activities, Harvey is Secretary of the Northern High Standards.

JANUARY VIKING 'reetings from the Tresident HE apotheosis of our brief careers is now at hand. It is with un- i paralleled pleasure and pride that we regard the events of the last three years. Reared, as we are here in Detroit, in an atmosphere of industry, we might well liken ourselves to raw materials molded through the medium of our school into a single automotive product. Graduation breaks that product up into its component parts, but by no means are we halted. The momentum gained by high school is the driving force sending us forward to success. Very shortly we receive our diplomas-our drivers' licenses, which qualify us to bear the responsibilities that are essential to travel on the network of highways that lead to success. Now comes the real test! Can the experience won have left a deep enough impression to aid us when we have only ourselves to depend on? Most of us are leaving with the education received here as our only capital. Some will immediately pursue business careers, others will seek to further their education, but all have a common objective-to be an honor to our school, to our parents, and to ourselves. 1938
