Qs.b.,fW 4ECB1i'iTF 0qeEa..0ffRa9a ' School Write-Up HE school has undergone some great changes this year under the capable management of Mr. Brewer, our new principal, Norman Bolles, and May Blomeyer. Norman Bolles and May Blomeyer were the first independent ever to run for oHice and be elected as president and vice-president, respectively. After successfully manageing the Council for the first semester of the year, Norman Bolles graduated. May Blomeyer was automatically made president, thus becoming the first girl in Peoria High School to have the honor of holding that high off-icei The Council sponsored the publication of the Maroon and Black . These books were sent to the grade schools to be used as guide books by these planning to enter this high school next year. The old pennants in the study halls were taken down in order that we might make room for cleaner and newer ones. This year there has been a change in the pass system and the eighth hour has been lengthened. The register book has again been installed in the front hall and a prefect been appointed to take care of it every hour. The Social Committee has had a successful social year. Matinee Dances were given on the average of every two weeks in the gym with VVayne Matheeny's and Dick Raymond's orchestras playing. Several successful evening dances were also held. An island trophy case sponsored by the Council and the Athletic Board will be placed in the front hall between the Library and the South Hall. This will be built in order that the trophys won during the year may be placed in the case on exhibit in honor of those who have won them for our school. The school certainly thanks Mr. Brewer, the faculty, Norman Bolles, and May Blomeyer for their time and efforts spent in bettering the conditions of Peoria High School. Tweniy-two

Faculty .S'p0m0r.v T last our four years have come and almost gone. Se we, the class of 1929, say good-by to old Peoria High. In your four years reign we have surmounted all obstacles, made many lasting friends, had many pleasures, and have gone through trying timesvalways to come out ahead as the winners. Sponsors, we have been successful in all undertakings, and are now completing the four short years at the highest point attainable. From the hrst entrance into P. H. S. we were distinguished by our ability, not only in athletics, but also in class work and school spirit. Our athletes,'as well as class teams, have come to the front, and have always fought to the last. Our members always fought to the last, have reguraly ranked high in studies and have consistently been on the honor roll. Qur spirit and loyalty has also beeni very exceptional. In years to come, great things are expected of members of this class. The Junior Prom, give at the Hotel Pere Marquette last year for the first time in the history of the school, was the best ever given by a Junior Class. This years outstanding events were the class play, The VVhole Town's Talking, and the Senior Hop. They too were well attended and very successful from every point of view. At last we make our exit from our dear Alma Mater. And it is with regret that we bid adieu. VVe will always treasure and look back with longing desire and fond memories of these past quartet of years. Bonjour! - Twentyyhzu'
