.ff I r-I .IN U J, x 1 ' 1 J 4 an 1 U is .1 . ND THEN THERE WAS THE CLASS 0F '41 . . . The year 1937 marked the beginning of their four years of high school activities, when they were unso- phisticated freshmen, bewildered by the constant throng of upperclassmen. They began to learn their way around. by going to wrong classes and bumping into the prin- cipal. They finally got together and presented an as- sembly about dognapping, which was considered one of the best of the year. Sophomores they were. Full of a new confidence and developing an assured manner of walking and talk- ing, they now belonged The class of '41 did them- selves proud again with Love Finds Andy Hardy, and the high school found the sophomores good assembly givers. Upperclassmen now, juniors, they strutted around, putting freshmen and sophomores in their place. With dramatic ability they gave their first play, Stage Door, Junior Week came and with it special days, a unique edition of The Olympus put out by the juniors, and an assembly ending with junior courtesy. Then all too soon they were seniors. This class has had its frivolous and serious moments alike, they have studied and played, laughed and cried, in fact acted much like every other graduating class. They Worked hard and produced a lovely senior ball that had star- dust as its theme. Their assembly equalled the others in quality. They can point with swelling chests to their student body president, who gathered many honorsf Michigan trophy, May King, most valued student, and the Rotary award. With commencement, diplomas, and the graduation dance, the class of '41 wrote-Finis.
