SENIOR CLASS HISTORY On September the first, in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-six, there gathered together in the green mountains of eastern Kentucky a group of equally green Freshmen drifting from the vast regions of outer darkness into the great realm of knowledge and enlightenment known as Pike- ville High School. There were those among them who had, for the first time, come forth to greet the world in long trousers. There were others who had emerged from domiciles with their first high heels, all to stumble under the critical gaze of their upper classmen and to hold their mouths agap at the wonders and woes of high school life. Who — yes, who — would ever have predicted that these lowly, ignorant creatures would become the record-breaking class of their time— the exalted Seniors of 1930? The credit for much of the progress of these talented boys and girls must be bestowed upon Miss Hardinia Marshall and Mr. Leon Childers, our wise and willing sponsors. They spurred these stumbling Freshmen ever upward and onward when it seemed that an early grave would be theirs and that upon their trembling lips would be these last dying words — Amo, Amas, Amat, and Xr|-y=z. Thus passed our first year in high school. Next, you see us as gawky, conceited Sophomores, keeping our two able sponsors — Miss Brown and Mr. Sullivan — busy with our many wants and needs. We broke all records in class, membership of the Girl Reserves, Bible Study, Band and Athletic affairs and supplied a goodly number of first-class athletes. We also furnished much talent for plays, art and musical entertainment, win- ning a beautiful picture for the best attendance at the Art Exhibit that year. Then we appeared as jolly Juniors. In that stage we knew, but knew not that we knew, and cared less. That year of years with Miss Hendricks for our sponsor we made record-breaking grades, elected class officers, entertained extensively, gave almost all the sturdy athletes to the school, supplied leaders for all organizations and produced the Three Musketeers. Last, but not least, comes the final year, the year when the world-wise Seniors know and know that they know. In this last year our class again has furnished the leading athletes; the leaders of the Hi-Y; officers in Girl Re- serves; leaders for the plays and members of the band. At the beginning of the year very able officers were elected: Otto Coleman, President; John Ram- sey, Vice-President; Sarah Hendricks, Secretary-Treasurer; Naomi Little, Re- porter. The class colors are blue and white; the class flower a tulip; the class motto, B Y ' s and B 2 . The first class entertainment was a picnic given in the fall. Later there were two programs in chapel, one for the annual and the last a faculty take- off. At Christmas the Seniors had a Christmas tree with a real Santa Claus to give out the presents and everything. Then came the surprise birthday party for our beloved sponsor, Miss Lewis. It was one of the enjoyable occa- sions of the year. The outstanding achievement of the class is the Annual. Under the able guidance of Mr. Danburg, the class of 1930 has succeeded in publishing Pike- ville High School ' s first Annual. So Hurray for the best class old Pike High has ever produced.
