With their many ac- tivities, admirable personnel, spirit of brother- hood, and splendid scholastic record, the one hundred and sixty seniors of '27 feel that they have reason to be proud of themselves. The first senior meeting was held in janu- ary, for the purpose of organizing the class. These officers were elected: John Wymore, president, Voncile Smith, vice-president, Lau- rence Coffman, secretary-treasurer, Richard Stackhouse, sergeant-at-arms, and john Mait- land, giftorian. The officers, with the aid of Mr. Ogg, senior adviser, appointed these class committees: Ring and Pin Committee, An- nouncement Committee, Senior Day Commit- tee, Senior Play Committee, and Gift Com- mittee. The seniors have been quite active this year. The teams which led Paseo to victory in the interscholastic debates were composed largely of seniors. Out of the five final candidates in the Oratorical Contest, three were seniors. In the two plays successfully given this year by the school, the seniors have also taken part. Thus, We have raised the gavel from the desk of public speaking, may it never be lowered! Such success as has been achieved by our athletic department is partly due to the grad- uating men. The senior men fought on the football field, on the basketball court, and on the cinder track, and their never failing spirit has fanned the flame of sport's zeal to an ever burning fire. The Student Council Was organized and led by fourth year pupils. The accomplishments of its committees have been due, in great part, to the efforts of members of the graduating class. Other organizations, such as high school clubs, literary societies, and social clubs, have been organized though the zealous efforts of seniors. The Paseon staff consists mostly of members of the graduating class. The class of '27 does not mean to be ego- tistical in telling of its unceasing support of school activities, but such support and loyal service have been the keynote of its success. May the happiness of this year continue with the seniors through life! .4
