l l THE NARCISSUS Play was presented, and was a success in every Way. The Junior Class again fooled the student body on April 1,.by putting on an auditorium, that from their unofficial decision, surpassed all others. A The Junior and Senior classes Went together in putting on a Mixer . Owing to the number of activities at the end of the year, there Will be no more of these this year, but it is hoped that they will be continued next year. The biggest social event of the school year takes place on May 22, the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom. This is a Junior project, and they ex- pect to repeat the success this event has had in former years. The class of '32 congratulates the graduating Seniors, and expects that it can take their place next year. and prove itself a Worthy successor. The sponsors of this class are: Miss Wagner, Miss Eikenberry and Mr. Bittel.

It was very rushed. In fact rushed from Wednesday until Friday, October 10. A hard time party in person, and Mr. Bittel was hard times personified. A short program preceded the dancing which preceded the big event of the evening-cider and doughnuts. The music was contributed by a very fascinating orchestra. The orchestra pit was lighted by floor lamps very generously loaned by various students. The entire ball room was dimly lighted, presenting a supernatural appearance. We were honored by having Mr. Loveless and his guest, and Mr. and Mrs. Crodian as our guests. It is useless to add that the entire evening was es- joyed by all. Pzige Twenty-three

N the fall of '28 there was seen wandering through the halls of P. H. S. one of the greenest looking Freshmen classes that had ever looked at shoelaces or tall buildings. With the curiosity that only upperclassmen have, some of the Fresh- men boys were singled out to undergo an experi- ment, testing whether those Freshmen or any Freshmen, so conceived and so dedicated could long endure. These favored boys were dampened somewhat, and then stood up before the radiators to dry, but alas, the frowning upperclassmen were foiled, the objects of the experiment did not warp. During the past three years the attention of the whole school has been focused upon this class, at various times. Frances Patterson won the coun- ty Latin contest in '29, Mamie Siler was May Queen in '29, the only Freshman ever to have that distinction. Harriet Rhodes won the State Pag- eant Contest last year, and her Pageant was pre- sented both here and at Indianapolis with marked success. Members of this class have participated freely in athletics, debating, and other outside ac- tivities. l Last year it presented, Minstrels of 1930 . This was said to be the best auditorium of the year. On November 22, of this year, the Junior .. , ., . e.. - Q, S Wi l 5.1 it ,F r l. i . In rf l 4 X ,i .54 d .-x J ,a Q s F ' df l 422 . .af , , ,.

N September, as everybody knows, school start- ed and work began. We were Sophomores now -not Freshmen any longer! lt seemed wonder- ful. We all thought we would show the upper classmen what we really could accomplish, and this we did! In music we kept the good name of Peru High School up to its standards by having a competent Soph play the piano for the Glee Club. Many Sophomores were in the band and orchestra and many took part in the operetta. We are well represented in athletics. On the varsity football team were two Sophomores, Ty Holland and Herschel Kurz, while several others played on the second team. In basketball we were also well represented, having three boys on the varsity, namely, Bruce, Holland, and Vignary. Many others played on the lower teams and also on the track team. What would P. H. S. do without Sophomores? How many football and basketball games would we have won? What would have happened to the music department-if it had not been for the Sophomores? Shirley Tillett.
