THE ARENA 1934 M. COCHRAN R. MORTON M. McDIVITT W. RAGAINS President Vice President Secretory Treasurer HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF '34 In the fall of 1930 one hundred boys and one hundred girls entered the gracious doors of Paris High School, ushering in the famous class of 1934. During our freshman year we had an outstanding Literary Society. Some of our ambitious members also mode a good showing in the E. I. League contests. As sophomores many of our boys took an active part in athletics. Max Cochran added our class to the school Hall of Fame during this year, for he was selected as the school's most outstanding sportsman, which entitled him to the honor of having his name engraved on the Colson Trophy. The class of '34 prides itself on the accomplishments of its junior year. We held first and second places respectively in the County Spelling and Essay Contests, and won the interclass basketball tournament. Due to lack ot money, we were not able to entertain the seniors as royally as usual, but did this cloud dampen our spirit? Not a bit of it! We staged a Junior-Senior Party which proved to be a great success. Our class play, Henry Tells the Truth, revealed the dramatic talent of some of our classmates. With all these accomplishments to our credit we started on The Last Round-Up. Early in the fall Austin Bridgman and Katherine Carpenter represented the school in the County Spelling Contest, carrying off first and second honors. Again the Good Sportsmanship Trophy became the possession of our class when Arthur Roberts was recently voted the honor by the entire school. And then take a look at this year's basketball team. It was composed almost entirely of seniors, and see what a record they have made for us! We seniors realize that commencement isn't far away, and that the juniors of today will take our places next year. Margaret McDivitt, '34. [241
