NARCISSUS, 1933 SENIOLU-A55 CLASS 'OFFlCEl2S Motto: Worlc Conquers All Things. Colors: Purple and White. Flower: Violet. Sponsors: Miss Tereba and Miss Wood. CLASS HISTORY OW that our four years of high school are over, we look forward to the coming years. We do not realize the many and difficult problems with which we will come in contact. They will be far greater than any we have as yet encountered in our high school career. The class of '33 is well prepared to meet these problems, to see and feel the heart aches, the many hard knocks, and, above all, the numerous joys. On entering Peru High School in 1929, we were prob- ably as green as any freshmen ever were or ever will be. It didn't take us long, though, to become accustomed to the ways of high school. We were considered one of the most intelligent freshmen classes. For the iirst time in the history of the school, one of our home room classes won the scholarship cup twice. We were proud of the fact and thought it quite an honor. When juniors, two of our members, both girls, won first place in the State Shorthand Contest. Competing with all of the other good teams was certainly not what you would call an easy task, and they were compelled to do their very best to become the victors. Another girl won the Miami County Latin Contest. The high scholastic standing of this class is shown by the large number of names that appear on the honor roll each six weeks. One of the most important activities in the history of this graduating class is athletics. Everyone is more or less interested in sports. We take with us six players out of the first eight on the basketball team, including John Bruce, who has played on the varsity team for the entire four years. He certainly deserves the position of honor- ary captain of the team. But without the other fine mem- bers of his class, the successful season of this year would have been impossible. These other players gave their best and should, by all means, be commended for their work. In football our boys played an important part. When freshmen, not much notice was taken of us. We knew very little and others did not seem to be concerned with us. The next year the boys knew a little more and were given some attention. One or two were on the first team. But during our Junior year the boys who participated in football greatly assisted the team through a successful season. And this year, we have shown what the seniors have done for the team. We are very proud to have eleven graduating seniors on this undefeated team. We especially wish to commend Robert Antrim, Honorary Captain, who through his leadership contributed greatly to the team's success. Track is not so prominent as basketball and football, but there are several participants in the class of '33, We have two all-around athletes who have participated in basketball, football, and track. Dramatics, debating, and music are well displayed in this class. All of our plays have been great successes and several students had leading parts in the operettas. Last year some participated in debating and were good enough to be on the team, which went to the state Hnals in North Manchester.

We were well represented in the rodeos and other spe- cial activities. Looking into the art of music, we see some wonderful talent. One of our classmates won Hrst place in the violin contest at Indianapolis three years ago. We have several accomplished musicians and some vocal talent of which we can be justly proud. Several students have developed their talent along the line of art and should be commended for their work. As we look back on our high school career, we recall the joys and good times we have had. We forget the undesir- able things and remember only the desirable ones. We wish to express our appreciation of the Principal, teachers, and our parents, who have helped us prepare for our strug- gle with life. We certainly regret leaving good old P. H. S., and only hope that we have set good examples for the class that will soon take our place.-MARY ALICE LEFFEL. 7 1 1 i i 1 l i
