Having risen to the position of dignified Seniors, the Class of '21 succeeded in carrying off more honors than in previous years. First it showed its ability by planning and carrying out a carnival more success. ful than that of any other class. It was again our good luck to Win Inter-Class Basketfball Tournament. It was a hard fought battle as the underclassmen were determined not to let the Seniors carry OH' a third victory. Une of our song birds has been on the Quartette for all four years and has done her part toward Winning a place in the County Contests. Other members have showed their musical talent by being in the Orchestra. It has not only been in athletics and music that our class has ranked high, but also in dramatic ability. With honors in all of these dilferent lines, it proves that the Class of '21 was an allraround class. ' Historians MABEL MILNER HELEN STROMBECK

H. S. As we looked about us il-ji if in awe and wonder at the numerous pennants and trophies, little did we realize how many new ones we would add to the collection. Our first prize was carried off by having the prettiest and most orig- inal class float in the carnival parade. The Seniors wanted to show their author- ity by trying to make us walk under their banner. How we escaped CPD down the back stairs when Mr. Dutter was there to meet us and then made our presi- dent walk under it after all. The first social function was a Hallowe'en party and all present were in the Hallowe'en spirit, therefore all had a jolly good time. Later We Went skating with the Sophomores and those who enjoyed this recreation about skated their legs off. The next big event of our class came in March, when we won the lnter Class Tournament. Our team, Tanner, jones, Grube, Pifer, Cressner and Baske, with the other members of the class behind them was determined to win-and We Did. We closed our good times as Freshman with a picnic at Pretty Lake. ln September, 1919, after a short vacation we resumed our work in P. H. S. This year we devoted our time entirely to studying giving up all outside attractions. We proved to be good losers when the Seniors downed us in lnter Class Basket- ball Tournament, though it really did hurt to sit under the Senior's green and gold. Some of our athletes appeared in the County Track Meet. At the C. B. L. of 1. Hall another ofgour unusual social times occurred. The year drawing to a close, found us all anticipating the next year's work and pleasure. After the summer vacation a much smaller class assembled at the old school. This jolly bunch of Juniors wanted to forget cares of school life-so decided to have a Kid Party l Glenwood arranged for the kiddies to come out and play with him at Pretty Lake. The evening was successfully carried out in the kid fashion. Later in the year our Basket-ball stars showed themselves to be victors again over the Seniors of '20 in the lnter-Class Basket-ball Tournament. It was then our turn to make the others sit under our colors. These athletes of the Class of '21 twinkled and shone in the County Track Meet. Wayne Cox won Hrst place in the mile. Chas. Jones and Gail Troyer tied for first place in High jump. Glenwood Beattie won third place in one of the dashes. We Juniors really did knowlhow to carry out planjshtsuccessfully when it was time to do things. This we showed in our successful Senior Banquet Dance. We believe the Seniors didjappreciate our efforts to show them a good time before leaving High School. On the last day of school we decided to enjoy ourselves once more by having a picnic at Pretty Lake.

We loath to leave the Assembly room And teachers, nearly a score, These years our happiest days have been, We realize full well. What the future has in store for us, Is surely hard to tell. Chorus' Mr. Steinebach and Stallings, too, our principal and prof., Such men they were, and leaders, too, and of such sterling worth. Miss Galbreath in our English class, no other could excel, And La in, by Mrs. Boyer, she surely did it Well. 2. Brindley taught Arithmetic, In which he was just Hne, And in Domestic Science class, Miss Schlosser she did shine. Our French to us was daily taught, By pretty Miss Anderson. And Music by Miss Boss was given, Many times till set of sun. C horuf Our Physics and Chemistry, by Jamison were taught. Mr. Hensel in Commercial work, he did it as he ought. And Miss Renwick in Mathematics, she was great, indeed, A very present help to us, in every time of need. Choruf Our High School days are over, we're starting out again, To battle with this great old world as women and as men, But welll buckle on the armor, be loyal, brave and true, And do our best in future years, in everything we do.
