“The Tale of a Traveling Troupe” (Class History) 'Twas way back in the days when we all thought that the mar- velous man in the side show really ate fire, that the little band of troupers, the class of '30, started on a four-year tour. Bill Allee, their chosen rinrmaster, was quite capable of handling the elephants of trouble, and steered the circus train from all dangers. The first bit of “tough luck was “handed us by a rival com- pany called “Seniors. This group took our brave little band for a so called “buggy ride to the high school letter. Many and stinging were the blows that were dealt the hacks of our baby troupers, hut welcome and appetizing was the lunch served after all the work was done. A calliope played merrily, and afforded much amusement at the first dance given by the troupe under the big canvas. All went well the first year. The weather was fine and crowds applauded the performances of our gay little hand. The second year brought progression, and although a few mem- bers dropped out in the various towns we passed through most of us finally arrived at a consoling town called “Half Way. During this time we had gained much fame because of the clever performances and double thrilling acts of “Strong Man Hubbard. “Bloncly Has- sett and his famous seals also proved a drawing attraction. At the end of our second year on the road our company took three months rest at summer training quarters. Here we recuper- ated from the long winter grind, and learned many new stunts and acts to he used during the coming season. Little did our friends realize, at the beginning of 1929, all the glories and box office receipts we were to receive. Our three-act performance, “The Boomerang , in which the Robinson-Jaeger team showed splendid work brought great acclaim. A big sensational act, the Junior Prom, created quite a stir. “The Human Skeleton, Nor- man Wvkoff, and that great lady, Madame Rosenblatt, the “Smoke Later. were the centers of attraction. Toward the end of this third season our troup entertained the Seniors with a banquet. Hawiian decorations, food and entertainment were provided under the capable direction of natives of the Pacific Isles, who were on tour with the circus.

mained true troupers until the last minute. With a new ringmaster. Jack Jaeger, the circus train was on its way to make its last tour. The big performance was “The Charm School. The box office re- ceipts were stolen before the troupe could be on its way and as a re- sult things looked bad for the company'. Realizing that “the show must go on” to meet its booked engagements, the management, with the co-operation of the troupers decided to repeat the performance. Townspeople showed their good spirit by supporting the cause and the circus was again on its way. Christmas time came and with it the “Senior Hop . Later a jollv picnic was given the winners of the “ Hassayamper-Badger Contest’’, the Sophomores. The four years have passed pleasantly and profitably. The troupers, sorry to say, find it necessary to part. A few will go one way, a few another. Some will leave the circus life forever, and some will continue to follow the call of the road. All will keep drill- ing, as they realize that “the show must go on. Circus life has taught them that co-operation and fair play are the mainstays of a successful career. —K.D. '30. Class Will We, the class of 1030, of 1’rescott High School, located in the city of Prescott, Yavapai County, State of Arizona, being four years of age, and of sound and disposing mind and memory, do make, pub- lish and declare this our Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and annulling any and all wills or promises by us at any time here- tofore made. Item : The following may seem but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted, not as worthless things lavishly thrown away because we can no longer keep them, but as valuable assets to those who may receive them, and a con- tinual reminder of the generosity of the heart displayed in our free and full bestowal: 1st. I, Bill Allee, leave my wisecracking ability to Lorene Putsch. 23
