THE NUGGET (Senior History continued) Semi-circles lead to circles—circles are synonomous with rings, and the class rings on almost all graduates’ fingers carry with them memories of the junior class president, Darwin Musick, and his selection committee. Thoughts of one class officer naturally lead to thoughts of the other officers Hertha Kerber, executive committee member for the first half of the year, Leah Wallace, who held that office the last part of the year, and Nodeene Porter who was president of the class during the second halt. May and the carnival roded around again, and the juniors did their part by producing a good old-fashioned “meller-dramy”. Remember Milton True Blue Cohen and Little Gray -Pat Hastings, B. P. (Before Production?) Warren Harlan in the role of Seemoane LeScume turned out to be a really hissable villain. Speaking of turnouts, the girls enthusiastically proclaimed their interest in volleyball and basketball by large turnouts and also by winning several championships. The boys of the class played a part in athletics and a number of them won blocks in such sports as football, basketball, tennis, baseball and track. Several members of the class won triumphs on the track of life during their senior years when elections placed them in Student Body offices. Since the subject of elections has been brought up, class elections may as well be discussed. At the first of the year Bob Bartley was elected vice-president, but he soon became president when President Bob Anderson left school. For the first time Mildred Barnett took a seat in the executive committee, and also for the first time. Warren Harlan held that office the last part of the year. The last president the class could ever have was Pat Hastings. About the time class elections were held some of the seniors were very busy getting ready a program, the last in a series put on by each class, before the Student Body. The senior program had the faculty and entire Student Body roaring with laughter at the antics of some of the people supposedly trying out for parts in a motion picture. The seniors won the prize, a party given by the other three classes. The class had now dwindled to 121 members but anyone will tell you it’s quality and not quantity that counts. Quality was certainly present in the Fun House built by the senior class for the carnival in May, 1938. Another last time that will doubtless be remembei'ed for years to come was the Senior Farewell. It was a gala but neverless sobering affair, sobering because of the realization that it was the last school dance the seniors could attend as students. To complete the year graduation arrived and passed and now the Class of 1938 is nothing but a memory—how lasting only time can tell.
